7 Signs You Need To Ditch Your Old Mattress and Start Mattress Shopping

An old mattress hung over a wall.

Sleep is paramount for pretty much all aspects of life. Not only is it critical for maintaining health, but it also plays a massive role in our careers, relationships, and overall well-being.

The key to excellent sleep begins with a great mattress. Most of us don’t take the time to evaluate if our current mattress is living up to its end of the deal. That’s because many of us are so used to inconsistent sleeping surfaces.

How You Can Shop Local on Amazon During Prime Day 2022

how to shop local on amazon

With Amazon Prime Day just around the corner, it can be hard to resist purchasing discounted items from manufacturers offering tantalizing deals. If you're someone who likes supporting local businesses, however, buying discounted goods from off-brand merchants can be a bit problematic. Many of the more affordable brands on Amazon are companies that operate outside of the U.S. to produce products at cheap prices. Fortunately, there is actually a way you can shop just within the United States on Amazon and support local artisans in your region.
Shop Local Business with Amazon Handmade

You can actually shop by region using Handmade
, Amazon's online store for artisan goods. If you're an Amazon Prime Member looking to support small online businesses without leaving the comfort of Amazon, Handmade is an excellent tool to do so.

Should You Shop the Memorial Day Sales or Wait Until Prime Day?

best memorial day sales deals 2021

While the official first day of summer isn't until June 20, for many people, this coming Memorial Day weekend marks the start of the season. And with the BBQs and celebrations also come the Memorial Day sales, and in fact, we’ve already started seeing plenty of them. But you might have heard about another big sale looming on the horizon -- Amazon’s Prime Day extravaganza -- and wondered which are better, Memorial Day deals or Prime Day deals. The answer is a definitive “it depends.”
What to Buy on Prime Day
It depends on what you want to buy. For example, although there have already been some great Memorial Day tech deals typically you are going to find better deals on laptops, TVs, headphones, smartphones, and tablets on Prime Day, especially if you are looking to purchase any of Amazon's own tech products, such as Fire TV Sticks, Kindle e-readers, Fire tablets, Echo smart speakers, and Alexa smart home devices. Similarly, Prime Day wins when it comes to savings on small appliances like blenders, coffee makers, and vacuum cleaners. So if you've been thinking about getting a new Instant Pot or have a Ninja Foodi appliance on your shopping list, you might want to put off purchasing one until Prime Day, which isn't just one day but several days whose exact dates have yet to be revealed, but we think we know when it might be.
What to Buy on Memorial Day
However, there are some items definitely worth getting on sale over the three-day weekend. Particularly when it comes to many larger purchases, Memorial Day is prime (pun intended) shopping season. This weekend, you can expect to see some of the best deals of the year on furniture, mattresses, and large appliances like refrigerators, microwaves, and washers and dryers. This weekend is also, perhaps unsurprisingly, the best time to buy a new air conditioner, which is not something you want to be without once the summer heat really kicks in. Of course, there will also be sales on everything from clothing to camping gear -- many of them with buy-worthy prices -- but the biggest savings this weekend will be on the big items.
