Memorial Day is less than a week away. But you don't have to wait till May 25th to start saving. In fact, I've already started my Memorial Day shopping. Major retailers like Amazon, The Home Depot, and Best Buy have officially launched their Memorial Day sales and there are plenty of excellent offers available.

I've been covering Memorial Day sales for over a decade and it's one of my favorite retail holidays. In my opinion, it's the first significant retail holiday of 2026 and easily overshadows Presidents' Day and 4th of July.

Lululemon "We Made Too Much": top picks from $9 @ Lululemon
Lululemon has restocked its "We Made Too Much" section with new running shorts, leggings, tank tops and more. Sizing and color options are sometimes limited, but we don’t often see the Align leggings that made Lululemon famous for less than $40 (unless it’s Black Friday), which is just one of the reasons why this restock is worth a shout.
