When is Memorial Day 2024?
Memorial Day is officially Monday, May 27, 2024. We're expecting more retailers to begin promotions through the weekend and Monday, but plenty have already kicked off the deals. We will keep this list of great Memorial Day laptop deals updated to ensure you're always looking at the best prices on the best Windows laptops.
Should I wait for Amazon Prime Day deals instead of Memorial Day deals?
We know that Amazon has another Prime Day event planned for July 2024, though we don't yet know the exact dates. In any case, Prime Day is always a great time to save big on laptops, and you might be tempted to wait for bigger sales. Whether you buy a new laptop on Memorial Day really comes down to whether or not you can wait and whether you want to gamble on prices being the same or better in July.
How can you tell what's a good Memorial Day deal?
Major sales events always come with pricing tricks and obfuscation, with many retailers raising prices just before an event to make deals look better than they are. You can always verify Amazon pricing history with a tool like CamelCamelCamel, and for other retailers, we've provided price checks and alternative deals where possible to help you get the best discount.
