When do 4th of July sales start?

Most 4th of July sales will kick off the week before the holiday, which means we should start to see deals pop up in late June. This year, the highly anticipated Prime Day sale takes place on June 21 and 22, which means retailers might hold off on promoting 4th of July offers till after the two-day Amazon event.

All 4th of July sales will last through the holiday weekend, and most will end on Monday, July 5. We’ll be updating this page daily with all the best early bargains, so make sure to check back for new discounts and deals.

What are the best 4th of July sales? 

The biggest categories discounted during the 4th of July sales event include appliances, patio furniture, mattresses, clothing, and tech items like laptops and TVs.

The 4th of July is also a fantastic time to find deals on mattresses, with retailers like Casper and Temper-Pedic participating in sitewide sales.
