Labor Day sales 2023: key information

When is Labor Day 2023

Labor Day is a federal holiday that always takes place on the first Monday in September to celebrate the contributions and achievements of American workers.

This year, Labor Day lands on Monday, September 4th, with the long holiday weekend kicking off on Friday, September 1st. Most Labor Day sales will kick off the week before on Monday, August 28.

Do Labor Day sales go past Labor Day?

Most holiday sales outside Amazon Prime Day extend their sales past the actual holiday, and we expect that will happen with Labor Day – depending on the category. If you’re shopping for appliances, mattresses, and furniture, most Labor Day sales will go past Labor Day, with deals extended for the following week. If you’ve spotted a record-low price on a TV, laptop, or Apple device, we recommend snagging up the offer on Labor Day, as most offers will expire.

You can also see if the retailer has specified that the sale will end at Midnight on Labor Day. The Best Buy Labor Day appliance sale doesn’t end till September 13, per the website, and the Lowe’s Labor Day appliance sale expires on September 13 as well.

What goes on sale for Labor Day?

Labor Day marks the end of summer so you can find clearance prices on outdoor items like patio furniture, tools, grills, and lawnmowers. Like other holiday events, Labor Day sales also offer record-low prices on big-ticket items like major appliances from retailers like Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Best Buy, as well as furniture, mattresses, and TVs.

Labor Day sales include back-to-school sales from retailers like Amazon and Best Buy to find impressive savings on laptops, tablets, printers, and school supplies like backpacks and lunchboxes.

The Labor Day sales event is the last big shopping holiday ahead of Black Friday, so it’s typically a preview of the Black Friday deals event, with big savings from all the top brands like Apple, Samsung, LG, Roomba, Keurig and Dyson. If you’d like to avoid the November holiday craze, the Labor Day sales event is an excellent opportunity to score record-low prices from all the big online retailers.

You can also see look out for upcoming discounts at the 2023 Labor Day TV sales event and the Amazon Labor Day sale.

If you're looking for home items, you can also browse early Labor Day mattress sales and our Labor Day appliance sales guide.
