During 4th of July sales, you can find discounts and promotions across multiple shopping categories including furniture, mattresses, beauty, clothing and additional summer essentials. That said, we suggest prioritizing any big-ticket items you’ve been eyeing like mattresses, TVs, furniture and appliances, since you can save hundreds by purchasing them now.
Fourth of July sales typically end one to two days after Independence Day—July 5 or July 6. The end dates for these sales will vary depending on the retailer, so if there is one you’re interested in shopping, be sure to check their site for more information about when it concludes so you don’t miss out on these steep savings.
While both sales events offer some of the best deals of the year, there are advantages and disadvantages to each. Fourth of July sales are great because you can find discounted summer necessities, appliances and more. Black Friday sales tend to feature a broader range of discounted products, with more brands participating in the fall sales event.
