It’s always sad when summer comes to a close. However, on the bright side, Labor Day represents yet another long weekend — not to mention an opportunity to save on a slew of goods before the holiday shopping season kicks off in earnest. Although Labor Day isn’t until tomorrow, September 2nd, many retailers are already offering steep discounts on a range of tech, some of which rival the Prime Day deals we saw in July.
Right now, for instance, Apple’s last-gen iPad is on sale for less than $200. Other Verge-approved items have also fallen to an all-time low (or close to it), including Sonos’ Era 100 speaker, Amazon’s latest Echo Spot, and the entry-level Kindle. Granted, we’ve seen many of these products go for slightly less in the past — and it’s possible we’ll see even better deals during Amazon’s next Prime Day event in October — but now is a great time to pick up any last-minute school supplies you might need or begin chipping away at your holiday wishlist ahead of Black Friday. After all, it rarely hurts to get ahead, even if you’re wallet might say otherwise.
Update, September 1st: Updated to reflect current pricing and the addition of several new deals, including those for Coleman’s Cascade Classic Camp Stove and LG’s C4 OLED TV.
