If you've been eyeing new gear, now's the time to move. Memorial Day sales have started rolling out more than a week early, with solid discounts on tech and lifestyle products that actually matter.
Garmin's fitness wearables are seeing cuts, which is notable since the brand rarely discounts its higher-end models. If you're tracking workouts or need reliable GPS for outdoor activities, this is one of the better windows to buy.
Birdfy's smart bird feeders are also on sale. These AI-powered feeders identify bird species and send you notifications with photos, which sounds gimmicky until you realize how much it changes your relationship with your backyard. It's a surprisingly engaging use of computer vision in everyday life.
Breville's kitchen appliances are included too. Their espresso machines and smart ovens have a reputation for lasting years, so catching them on sale makes the upfront cost easier to justify.
The actual holiday is May 26, but retailers are clearly trying to capture attention early. If you're planning to buy anyway, waiting probably won't get you a better price. Most Memorial Day deals peak before the weekend and sell out on popular items.
