When do Labor Day appliance sales start?

Early deals are already here at a number of major retailers. While we expect more deals to trickle in over the weekend, the vast majority of offers are available now as we head into the holiday weekend. These sales should be live through Labor Day weekend, with some extending through Monday.

Is Labor Day a good time to buy new appliances?

The majority of retailers will be slashing prices on a number of items across the board, with some of the biggest and most aggressive savings on appliances. Labor Day is one of the few remaining shopping events of the year for cleaning up with big markdowns on your home upgrades.

How we choose the best Labor Day deals

At CNET, we’ve got a team of expert shoppers and deal-hunters whose experience spans years of helping buyers understand which major sales and deals are legitimately good and which are more routine. That includes Black FridayPrime DayFourth of July and countless other shopping events. We’ve gotten very good at weeding out scams and superficial deals. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing a deal to show you.

  • Real discounts mean exactly that. We look at the price history for items sold at various retailers to make sure no manufacturers are inflating prices to make the discount seem more substantial than it is.
  • Quality reviews are important for any product, but especially for big purchase items like grills, furniture and appliances. If it breaks the first time you use it, the discount isn’t really worthwhile.
  • Remaining sale time is a huge part of our vetting process. If a deal seems like it will only be around for a short while or will only be available for the remaining stock, we’ll let you know upfront so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
