Where to find the best Memorial Day freezer sales in 2022

The 2022 Memorial Day sales have begun in earnest, bringing with them one of the best opportunities in the first half of the year to save hundreds if not thousands on big-ticket items like electronics and home appliances. There are a bunch of great Memorial Day refrigerator sales happening right now, but if you specifically need a new freezer, you’re also in luck. A dedicated freezer is great for large families, people who buy meat and produce in bulk, and anyone else who just needs a little extra storage for food (or other things), and all the big-box stores are slashing prices on freezers big and small for Memorial Day weekend. Whether you need a full-size free-standing freezer, a compact unit for your ice cream stash, or a chest freezer for your meat hoard, these Memorial Day freezer deals have you covered.

Considering that it’s one of Home Depot’s biggest competitors, it’s no secret that Lowe’s is another great place to shop for home appliances. This retailer almost always gets in on seasonal sale action, too, and it’s offering up a myriad of Memorial Day freezer deals from virtually all the best names in the appliance game. Reliable workhorse brands like Kenmore, Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, and KitchenAid are all featured here, with modern tech brands like Samsung and LG coming in as well. Everything from mini freezers and upright freezers to commercial-grade freezers and even convertible freezer/refrigerator combos are available, so whatever you need, Lowe’s probably has it — and for a good bargain, too, considering prices start at just $149 (the lowest of any retailer in our roundup).

Home Depot — From $181

Home Depot is another top outlet for home appliances (along with everything else home-related, as you’d expect from the name), and its Memorial Day freezer deals feature a great selection of different brands and price points. There are compact freezers from brands like Whynter and Honeywell that are perfect for dorms, bedrooms, small apartments, and similar compact spaces, as well as upright freezers from top manufacturers including Frigidaire. If it’s a chest freezer you’re after, Home Depot has a bunch. Brands featured here include Danby, Maytag, and GE, along with the aforementioned ones, and there are even portable freezers on sale. Pickings are a little slimmer with regards to smart home appliance brands like Samsung and LG, but with prices starting at less than $200, you’re sure to find a freezer deal here to suit almost any space and budget.

Best Buy — From $214

Best Buy might be better known for consumer electronics, but this outlet is also one of the best destination for home appliance deals. Its Memorial Day sale is offering discounts on freezers of all kinds from top brands like Whynter, Frigidaire, LG, and Samsung. Prices are being cut on everything from compact freezers to upright models with prices starting at $214, but the selection is a little more limited than other outlets like Home Depot or AJ Madison. Nonetheless, the Best Buy Memorial Day sale is one to check out — and of course, there’s an ocean of other brand-name stuff on markdown, too, so you can do some one-stop shopping if you’ve got some more electronics on your shopping list.

It may not have the same instant name recognition as Best Buy or Home Depot, but if you’re in the market for home appliance deals, then AJ Madison has one of the best Memorial Day home appliance sales going right now with discounts on an enormous collection of essentials for every room in the house. With more than 300 freezers on markdown as part of the sale, the selection of designs and brands is too exhaustive to list here, but let’s just say that it covers about everything, from compact freezers to built-in freezer columns designed to be paired with a separate fridge column (like the one pictured). Whatever freezer you’re after, AJ Madison almost certainly has it. That includes “smart” freezers featuring things like Wi-Fi connectivity and Amazon Alexa compatibility, with brands including Thermador, Miele, Bosch, JennAir, and Liebherr featuring heavily here, among others. AJ Madison also provides free nationwide delivery on most of its appliances.

Prime Day 2022 security camera deals graphic.

If you're the sort of person who worries about the physical safety of their home or live in a rough area, then having home security cameras can help give you much more peace of mind. The great thing is that in the past decade or so, security cameras have come a long way, and nowadays, you can get things like wireless security cameras that let you access them remotely from wherever you are through an application. Of course, that does mean that there is a huge selection out there, which is why we've collected some of our favorite security camera deals below, although if you're in the Amazon ecosystem, it might be worth checking out these Ring camera deals.
Chamberlain myQ Smart Garage Security Camera -- $27 $50 45% off

While this is ostensibly made for your garage, there's no reason the Chamberlain myQ Smart Garage can't work for other uses as well, especially if you don't need the highest quality of recording. It has an HD camera, which isn't a ton, but it does have an impressive 130-degree field of view. The MyQ also connects through dual-band Wi-Fi for a better connection, and it even has two-way communication, which is impressive for something at this price bracket.

Tesla Powerwall is the best solar, home backup, and EV charging companion
Tesla Powerwall 3 installed on outside of home

Solar power, and having solar panels on your home, is a fantastic way to conserve energy and cut down on power bills, especially if you live somewhere sunny like Florida or California. There's just one glaring issue. When the grid goes down you still lose power because of how it's connected. Your solar panels cannot generate enough energy or keep it stored to keep your power on. So, essentially, your power setup doesn't offer much benefit there, unless you get a home power backup system. More specifically, something like a Tesla Powerwall is a compact home battery that stores energy generated from the grid. That energy is then used as a backup when traditional grid power is unavailable.

To make it even more clear, with a Tesla Powerwall, the power stays on even during a major blackout or outage. It's whole-home backup, too, which means you can power your lights, appliances, electronics, you name it. If you've ever had to throw away an entire refrigerator's worth of spoiled food because of a multi-day outage -- like I have -- you'll certainly appreciate the option to keep your appliances running. But that's not all it can do. The Tesla Powerwall is an excellent companion for Tesla EV owners, creating an entire smart ecosystem of power. Let's explore.

Home Depot’s “Build Your Own” Black Friday power tool deal is its best-kept secret
Home Depot consumer

Covering cordless power tools during Black Friday is surprisingly fascinating. Of the Black Friday deals I've covered so far this year, both Black Friday cordless drill deals and Black Friday power tool deals have been included included in my retinue, alongside a host of similar articles for our "brother" site The Manual.

There's one deal bundle among them all, however, that I've been utterly fascinated by this whole time. It's what I'm calling Home Depot's "build your own" power tool deal. This intriguing offering, which feels under advertised by Home Depot, seemingly inverts what we think of when we think of power tool deals. Instead of feeling stuck buying buying batteries separately — with a drill, with a big bundle, or with the lucky random battery — you're able (now) to build our deal and get everything you need, at a flat price. This means you can get the exact tool you want, and all the batteries you want with it, for as low as $99. Check it out yourself by tapping the button below, or keep reading to see what makes this deal so unique, how to shop it, and a few suggestions as to what you should buy.
