4th of July mattress sales 2026: What you need to know
Following on from the bumper discounts of the Memorial Day sales, the 4th of July mattress deals tend to be smaller — but there's still ample chance to save if you know where to look (and we know where to look.)
Not to mention that in recent years we've noticed some sleep brands like to surprise us by dropping their biggest discounts at unexpected times... like the 4th of July mattress sales.
And there's another element to consider this year. Summer is traditionally a quiet time for mattress sales before the Labor Day deals in early September. It's also a season of rising prices and with the war in Iran plus increased manufacturing costs, we expect these hikes to hit extra hard in 2026.
That means by the time the Labor Day sales do roll around, we might be looking at bigger discounts but higher final prices. So think carefully when navigating the 4th of July deals.
If saving is your top priority, there's always cheap mattresses to be found from the likes of Amazon, Walmart and Mattress Firm. Although in that case, instead of waiting for the 4th of July sales, we recommend browsing the Amazon Prime Day mattress deals from June 23rd to 26th.
4th of July mattress sales 2026: FAQ
When do the 4th of July mattress sales start?
July 4th is a Saturday this year and we expect most sleep brands to start their sales at least several days before the big day. Mattress sales are starting earlier and earlier so if you'd rather spend your holiday focusing on the barbecue and the fireworks, you'll have plenty of chances to shop before hand.
Following July 4th, we predict the sales will come to an end quickly, although a few deals will hang around long after the holiday has finished.
The sales calendar does, however, look a little different in 2026. July 4th has traditionally preceded the Amazon Prime Day sales (which tended to occur in mid-July.)
This year, Amazon has pushed Prime Day up to the end of June (23rd-26th.) And instead of a Prime 'Day', it's a four day event.
How will this impact the 4th of July sales? We expect some brands will position their sales as Prime Day rivals before morphing to July 4th deals, while others might hold back on discounts until the Amazon hullabaloo is over. Either way, we'll be keeping you updated.
Is July 4th a good time to buy a mattress?
Yes and no — let's start with the yes. The 4th of July is the last major sale before the summer lull, making it a great time to stock up your cooler sleep essentials (breathable sheets, cooling pillows, etc.)
We also expect many brands will raise their prices once the 4th of July sales are over. And while some of those prices will drop for Labor Day, it's looking likely that mattress costs will continue to creep upwards.
On the other hand, July 4th is a smaller mattress sale and we don't expect to see discounts as steep or as wide-ranging as the Memorial Day mattress deals. If you can hold on until Labor Day (or even better, Black Friday) you might have a better chance to score a bargain.
How to choose a mattress in the 4th of July sales
There are a few considerations to make when learning how to choose a mattress that suits your sleep needs. Getting clear on the answers to these questions before you start shopping the 4th of July sales will help you quickly narrow in on your ideal bed.
According to Tom's Guide's Senior Sleep Editor and Certified Sleep Science Coach Claire Davies, you should ask yourself these questions before buying a mattress:
- What is your budget?
- What mattress size do you need?
- What position do you sleep in? (Side, back, stomach or combination)
- What mattress firmness do you like? (Soft, medium or firm)
- Do you sleep solo or bed share?
- Do you overheat during sleep?
- Do you have any physical aches and pains that wake you up?
And before you purchase, don't forget to check the mattress warranty and the sleep trial. The industry average is a 10-year warranty and a 100-night sleep trial. These two factors offer peace of mind and help you find the mattress that's just right for you.
Where to find the best 4th of July mattress sales
We expect the best of the 4th of July deals to be online as without the associated cost of a brick and mortar mattress store, sleep brands can pass on savings to the consumer.
Shopping online also gives you a chance to browse more deals, without a pushy sales assistant putting the pressure on (although the chatbots can get annoying from time to time.)
If you are shopping online, keep an eye out for extra discounts and special offers. You might find signing up for a mailing list gets you an extra 5% or even a free gift. It might be a small bonus but that's still extra money you can put towards the rest of your 4th of July sales shopping.
