Memorial Day — originally known as Decoration Day when it was observed in the aftermath of the Civil War — has fallen on the last Monday in May since 1971. The day honors the military personnel who have fallen to protect American freedoms, and we shouldn’t lose sight of that somber goal. Traditionally treated as the official start of summer, it’s hard to say how this year will play out, since we’re still mostly staying at home because of the coronavirus pandemic.
But no pandemic is going to keep America’s retailers from showering us with bargains to celebrate Memorial Day, and many sales are already in full swing. Want to save a few dollars on laptops, kitchen gadgets or bedding? Be sure to check out all the laptops that Lenovo has on sale, as well as the top kitchen gadgets at Wayfair. On top of those, I’ve rounded up the most intriguing deals for you below.
DASH
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: An air fryer is the most useful gadget in the kitchen, even though it doesn’t use oil and therefore doesn’t actually fry anything. It’s amazing with wings and fries, and cooks everything with less fat and calories than traditional oil frying.

Our favorite two-in-one laptop for the business set, the ThinkPad X1 Yoga boasts an abundance of hardware options and security features all wrapped up in a thin, light aluminum frame. When you apply discount code THINKMEMORIAL, it’s very nearly half off. This model features a 14-inch display (it’s FHD with a 1,920×1,080-pixel resolution) and an antiglare finish, and you get the compatible ThinkPad Pen Pro stylus as well. Under the hood, you get a 10th-gen Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD.

Blue Apron
One of the very first meal kit delivery services, Blue Apron has been honing its service for years. Each week you get eight menu choices that always include seafood and vegetarian options. Recipes are easy to put together, and each box comes with the ingredients separated and organized — some meal services jumble ingredients together inconveniently.
Boxes usually run about $60 for three two-plate meals, but from now till May 25, you can save $20 per box for your first three boxes ($60 total) when you sign up as a new customer.

Tineco
CNET hasn’t reviewed the Tineco A10, but it’s well-loved on Amazon, with four stars from over 3,400 ratings. It has a powerful 350-watt motor, runs for about 25 minutes between charges and converts easily to a handheld vacuum.
Bird
The best job I ever had was the one in which I had a one-mile commute to the office, so I got to ride a OneWheel motorized skateboard to the office every day. You can get the same wind-in-your-hair excitement from a Bird One electric scooter which has a range of about 25 miles and a top speed of 18 mph. And with built-in GPS, you’ll never lose it.

The 65-inch Vizio P-Series is a 4K UHD smart TV with five HDMI inputs, USB and Ethernet ports. It’s compatible with Apple AirPlay and HomeKit, which lets you share images and video from mobile devices easily. More local dimming zones and higher contrast compared to Vizio’s M8 give this a leg up, along with 120Hz capability and a pair of 10-watt speakers. It’s on sale through May 24 or while supplies last.

Eero really kicked off the whole mesh network revolution for home Wi-Fi systems, and this second-generation Eero system includes three nodes for coverage of up to about 5,000 square feet. If that’s not enough, you can add additional nodes for $100 each. The Eero is a triband system that simplifies much of the complexity of setting up a full-featured Wi-Fi network with a simple mobile app, but it includes security, guest networks, parental controls and more.
