Presidents' Day is starting early. Although the retail holiday isn't till February 16, Best Buy's Presidents' Day sale is live and it's a great opportunity to make any minor or major purchases you've been holding off on.

As someone who tracks deals for a living, the next major retail holiday isn't till late May, which is why I'm personally taking advantage of this week's Presidents' Day sales to make small purchases I didn't get to make at the close of the year.
