Memorial Day is, of course, a time to honor America's fallen soldiers. It's also the unofficial start of summer, even if the solstice is still a few weeks away. As always, the Buy Side staff is busy finding the best deals for you to shop and save this holiday.

Best Buy has already pushed its Memorial Day sale 2025 live. You can save on Apple products, major appliances, lawn tools, TVs, and much more.

Our pick for the best iPad to get work done — and my personal go-to — is $100 off right now. It’s great for doing illustration and photo work, as well as writing and taking notes (though you may need additional gear like the company’s Pencil or a good keyboard ).
