Samsung Labor Day TV sale:save up to $1,620 at SamsungFirst up - Samsung’s early Labor Day sale on its stunning premium TVs, which is offering some of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen on some of thebest TVsyou can buy. The biggest savings (up to $1,620) are reserved for the largest and most premium displays but you’ll find optionsas low as $899for the excellent Q70A series. We’d particularly recommend this model if you’re looking for something that balances premium specs and quality with an affordable price (relatively speaking).

HP Labor Day laptop sale:save up to $400 at HPThere’s no shortage of laptop deals with this week’s early Labor Day sales - Amazon, Dell, and Best Buy all have fantastic choices - but we’d single out HP as offering the best deals overall right now. Not only are there some incredibly strong mid-range options right now that are perfect for work or college laptops (like this $499.99HP Pavilion), but you’ll also find really great price cuts on the more premium models. In particular, this HP Spectre x360for $999 (was $1,249)is an amazing chance to score one of our top-ratedbest laptops of 2022for a bargain price.

Best Buy Apple deals:up to $350 off MacBooks and iPadsApple deals are always present over any retail event - Labor Day sales included - but decent discounts are often elusive. Thankfully that’s not the case at Best Buy right now, with a number of excellent early Labor Day deals on Apple devices. Currently, our top picks are the slightly older (but still amazing) MacBook Pro M1for $949.99 (was $1,299), and the standard Apple iPad 10.2for just $279.99 (was $329). This latter deal is the lowest price yet on the tablet and a great opportunity to pick up an Apple device on the cheap.

Amazon back to school:up to $170 off tablets and laptopsThe Labor Day sales fall smack-bang middle in the wider ‘back to school’ period, so there are usually a lot of cross-over deals. Amazon in particular has its own section that’s constantly updated with fantastic deals on a weekly basis. Right now, we’d recommend checking out its range of savings on own-brand Amazon Fire tablets (up to 22% off), and itsrange of cheap gaming laptops, which are perfect if you want to both game and do college work.
