Memorial Day 2026 coming to a close, but many of our favorite brands and retailers are still offering major deals. The holiday is typically a good time to grab new appliances, mattresses and bedding, but I’m also seeing a few notable deals in tech and beauty.

I’ve been covering major sales events like Memorial Day, Black Friday and Amazon Prime Day for years, following retailers and tracking prices. This week, I’ve sifted through sites, compared prices and asked my fellow editors for recommendations in order to compile the below roundup of the best deals to shop this holiday — I’ll update this list as sales change.

Best Memorial Day mattress and bedding deals

All of our recommendations are based on our previous coverage and reporting. I’ve also included products NBC Select editors and reporters have tested.

Leesa Sapira Hybrid Mattress

I’ve owned this mattress for more than three years — it’s firm, plush, quiet and supportive all at once. It has six distinct layers, including a breathable top foam layer and a supportive wrapped spring layer towards the bottom. If I get a bad night’s sleep, I know it’s no longer because of my mattress.

Brooklinen Classic Percale Core Sheet Set

These are some of the best sheets on the market, especially for hot sleepers. Percale cotton is cool and crisp, according to experts and in our experience, and these sheets have held up well with no visible pilling after many, many washes.
