When are Memorial Day sales?
Memorial Day is observed on May 26, but some sales have already started. Major retailers like Amazon, Target, and Best Buy have items on sale, and tech brands like Bose, Sony, Beats, and more are competing for your dollars.
Be sure to check back here for more Memorial Day headphones deals, as I’ll be updating this list throughout the sale period.
How did I choose these Memorial Day deals?
I test plenty of headphones throughout the year and only tell readers about the ones worth their time. Therefore, when those recommended headphones are on sale, I encourage you to jump on them. I look for the headphones we recommend the most, and if they’re on sale, I’ll let you know. Because many headphones are $350 or more, we understand that it can be an investment, and it’s crucial that we make our recommendations based on research, thorough testing, and expertise.
