Does Apple offer Labor Day sales?
While the Apple Store doesn’t run a Labor Day sale — and rarely offers discounts outside of educational promos — it is possible to find deals on Apple devices and accessories from authorized retailers. The best deals usually accompany big events like Prime Day or a major holiday, which is why Labor Day is an excellent time to shop Apple sales on several devices. If you’re looking to spend less, try foregoing the latest releases. You’ll find bigger discounts on previous-generation models or refurbished devices.
Where are the best Labor Day sales?
You can find major savings for Labor Day at hundreds of retailers. Some of the places you can shop for significant savings include Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Home Depot and Lowe’s. You’ll find plenty of other smaller retailers hosting Labor Day sales as well.
How we choose the best Labor Day deals
At CNET, we’ve got 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. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing a deal to show you.
- Real discounts mean exactly that. We look at the price history for all items sold at Home Depot 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.
