Prime Day may be the best time to shop on Amazon, but holidays like Memorial Day are no slouch either, with the retailer discounting dozens of our favorite brands including Apple and EltaMD. If you’ve been eyeing a new mattress, vacuum or other big ticket item, this is the time to save, according to experts in our Memorial Day shopping guide, especially with the possibility of tariff price increases looming.
As a reporter for NBC Select, I’ve covered sale events like Black Friday, Amazon Prime Day and daily deals. Below are the best Memorial Day deals I found on Amazon — you don’t need to be a Prime member to shop them. I’ll update this list as prices and deals change.

The best Amazon Memorial Day 2025 deals to shop now
All of our recommendations are based on previous coverage and reporting, with a mix of editor favorite, brand bestsellers and expert-recommended picks. You don’t need an Amazon Prime membership to shop the deals below.
This drink mix is ideal for people who have never tried an electrolyte powder before because it has a less pronounced taste than other brands, in our experience. I use it after tough workouts and pack it with me when I go on long-distance bike rides. This pack comes with 32 single serving sticks in berry, lemon, orange and watermelon flavors.
This isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen for this portable charger, but is still a good deal for one of my favorite gadgets. I pack this power bank whenever I am going out — it saves me from the stress of having to worry about my phone dying on being stranded with my maps app. It has a 5.4-inch USB-C cable built-in to the battery itself, so you don’t have to pack an extra cable with you to charge most devices.
This is Apple’s most affordable iPad, and is perfect for all things entertainment: think streaming TV, movies, reading recipes and playing games. This latest model has a slightly larger screen, a speaker on each side for a stereo feel, and up to 10 hours of battery life.
NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio loves this face sunscreen for sensitive skin because it’s free of heavy moisturizers that can clog pores or flare her rosacea-prone skin. I’ve been pairing it with the EltaMD UV Sport SPF sunscreen for these early summer days — both feel protective, easy to blend and aren’t too heavy on my skin.
This is one of our favorite mattresses that ships in a box — it’s made up of four foam layers that mix breathability, airflow, cushion and support. Godio uses a similar model from the brand, and loves that it strikes a middle ground between firm and soft, as her and her husband prefer different levels of mattress firmness.
These are some of the best value over ear headphones I’ve ever tested, and as NBC Select’s tech reporter, that’s saying something. The design looks and feels surprisingly comfortable and stylish. Plus, they have a full set of features, including noise cancelling, transparency, wired connectivity, Bluetooth multipoint, and up to 65 hours of battery life.
If you’re looking for an even cheaper pair of over ear headphones, I recommend the Soundcore Life Q30, which are also on sale.
This Lego set is at its lowest price ever, and encourages imagination and freeform play. It includes 35 different colored bricks of all kinds, including windows, toy eyes, tires, wheels and baseplates. It comes in a large plastic bin that doubles as a storage box.
NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin has used this air purifier for years to help combat her dust and allergen sensitivity, plus dander from her two cats and small dog. This model is fit for rooms up to 361 square feet, making it a great fit for apartments. The HEPA filter lasts a full 12 months before needing replacement, longer than many competitors.
If you have an older TV that’s running slowly or not loading smart TV apps anymore, you may be able to speed things up by plugging in a streaming device. This Amazon Fire TV Stick can download all your favorite streaming services and play content in 4K resolution. Plus, it can sync with your Amazon account to deliver notifications on things like Amazon deliveries.
