Do I need an Amazon Prime membership?
Technically, no. This sale is available to everyone to shop. However, there are definitely perks to having a Prime membership for the sale. Prime members might be eligible for extra savings on top of already discounted products. And best of all, members also get free two-day shipping on just about all items. So even though a Prime membership isn’t needed for the sale, it will help save some extra bucks.
What should I buy during Labor Day sales?
As you can see, there are tons of things on sale at Amazon for Labor Day. You can score pretty big savings in just about every category across the board. This includes home and kitchenware, TVs, headphones, tech gadgets and so much more. And more things are being added to the sale every day.
How we choose the best Labor Day deals
At CNET, we have 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 Friday, Prime Day, Fourth of July and countless other shopping events. We’ve gotten very good at weeding out scams and superficial deals. When choosing a deal to show you, we look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time.
- Real discounts mean exactly that. We look at the price history for all items sold 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.
