A huge variety of Amazon devices are on sale right now with as much as half off regular prices. The early Labor Day sale includes popular Fire TV Sticks, Fire tablets, Kindle e-readers, Eero mesh Wi-Fi systems and more.
Early Labor Day TV deals
For a limited time, Amazon and Best buy are throwing a free Echo Dot (third-gen) in with select smart Fire TV purchases. Several different models are eligible for the freebie, from 24-inch HD models up to 75-inch 4K-compatible TV sets, with prices starting at just $90.
Hisense's R6 Series TVs offer a bunch of advanced features at a low price, including a 4K resolution, HDR support, a 120Hz refresh rate and Google Assistant or Alexa controls via your existing smart speakers. Using the excellent Roku OS, you'll be able to easily access all of the streaming services you know and love, too.
Vizio's V-Series made its way onto our best TVs list as a runner-up budget option because it comes with Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2 built in, which plenty of other smart TVs do not. These allow you to stream, or even mirror, content from your phone or computer. It also boasts 4K UHD picture, and an IQ active processor that enhances the quality of any non-4K content.
At just $430, the Toshiba M550 is packed full of features, including AirPlay support, built-in microphones for truly hands-free control and a low latency gaming mode. It's equipped with a Regza Engine 4K for stunning UHD picture, as well as support for Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10 Plus. And with DTS Virtual: X technology, it also features powerful, immersive audio.

Which Labor Day sales are the best?
There are going to be plenty of competing sales when Labor Day 2022 rolls around (with many having launched already). Deciding which is best for you to shop will depend on what you're hoping to buy.
Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart are generally good starting points if tech and smart home purchases are on your mind with stores like Lowes, Home Depot and Overstock being the places to begin your hunt for home and garden products.
Don't rule out more niche retailers like B&H Photo, Dell, HP and GameStop, though, as each will likely run some form of Labor Day sale as will most of your favorite brands. We'll be sure to keep you posted on the best Labor Day sales as they crop up.
When do Labor Day sales begin?
Though Labor Day falls on Monday, Sept. 5 this year, there's no official date that sales will kick off and many early Labor Day sales are already live. Expect others to launch in the coming days.
Should I wait for Black Friday sales?
Labor Day sales offer some of the best savings at this time of year, sitting nicely between Memorial Day sales and Black Friday. If you need something now, particularly furniture or yard equipment, Labor Day is a great time to buy, with end-of-summer pricing applying to a lot of those types of products.
Black Friday is the biggest sale of the year, though, and if you can afford to wait the extra couple of months you could potentially get more for your money. That being said, rumors abound of a second Prime Day sale, or "Prime Early Access Sale," slated for October, which could kick off the holiday shopping season much earlier and may mean even less time between Labor Day sales and fall sales.
How do I prepare for Labor Day sales?
The best thing to do between now and Labor Day 2022 is narrow down exactly what is on your shopping list this year. That way, you can identify the best retailers to start your search and avoid being distracted by the thousands of deals that will bombard you as more Labor Day sales officially kick off.
