Dell Inspiron 15: was $599.99 now $479.99 at Dell
Dell has dropped a handful of new laptop deals ahead of Labor Day, and this one is my top pick. With an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a large 512GB SSD, it’s the best buy if you have a reasonable budget and need a device to handle your day-to-day computing jobs and light work comfortably. Expect solid performance, good multitasking capabilities, and speedy load times, but be aware that the bulky 15.6-inch size means it’s not a super lightweight machine like the more premium XPS range.View Deal
Dell Inspiron 16: was $999.99 now $699.99 at Dell
Moving up in price a bit gets you this Dell Inspiron 16 with a slightly larger display and a newer chipset. Again, though, this is a solid mid-range option with plenty of power for nearly every task you could imagine, save intensive gaming applications. Overall, the Inspiron 15 above is a little bit better value than this particular listing, but the 16-inch model could be a good option if you want that bigger display and a slightly flashier-looking design.

Labor Day sales 2024: FAQs
When is Labor Day?
Labor Day is a federal holiday that always falls on the first Monday in September. Labor Day 2024 is on Monday, September 2, and the long holiday weekend kicks off on Friday, August 30.
Labor Day is a US holiday that honors and recognizes the social and economic achievements of American workers.
When do Labor Day sales start?
The start date of Labor Day sales depends on the retailer and the category you’re interested in. Mattress brands are generally the first to launch Labor Day sales, as we’ve already seen brands launch official offers. You’ll also find Labor Day appliance sales begin well before the September date, with retailers like Home Depot and Lowe’s launching official offers in mid-August.
If you’re looking for clothing sales, we should see retailers coincide back-to-school sales with Labor Day offers, meaning we could see discounts throughout the month of August. If you’re looking for tech deals, Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon typically wait till the week before or the holiday weekend to kick off their Labor Day sales.
I’ll update this page with all the best Labor Day sales as soon as they become available, so make sure to check back in the coming weeks.
What are the best deals during Labor Day?
Labor Day sales typically mean clearance prices on summer items as retailers make room for fall products. That means you can find huge discounts on patio furniture, grills, and lawn care from Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Walmart. Like other holiday sales, Labor Day will offer huge discounts on big-ticket items such as mattresses, furniture, and major appliances.
Labor Day sales also coincide with the back-to-school season, which means there are plenty of tech deals available from retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart on laptops, tablets, headphones, Apple devices, TVs, and smartwatches. Dorm essentials will be on sale as well, including small kitchen appliances, furniture, bedding and school supplies.
Labor Day sales are one of the last big holiday events before Black Friday, so it’s a great opportunity to save on a wide range of times before the madness of November’s Black Friday deals event.
