With Memorial Day on 25 May, Amazon, Best Buy, Lowe's, Wayfair, Cozy Earth and Nolah are offering discounts of up to 60% weeks before the holiday.
Highlighted deals include more than $300 off a Saatva mattress, $100 off a Weber grill, $600 off a Jackery power station and markdowns on DeWalt tools, Levi's shorts and Skechers shoes.
Retailers are using the holiday shopping period to cut prices on big-ticket items and everyday essentials, with some promotions updating daily and Prime shipping available on selected Amazon products.

With deep discounts weeks early, are consumers truly winning or just being pressured into premature spending?
