If you can wait, we'll likely see mattress prices drop even lower as the holiday weekend draws closer. Waiting until Memorial Day weekend to shop could save you an additional 5 to 10% on a new bed. But if you want one ASAP, the current selection of deals is pretty solid. Here are the best early Memorial Day mattress sales we've spotted so far, including deals on eight models our editors have tested firsthand.
The lofty and supportive Helix Midnight Luxe has held its spot as our favorite mattress overall for over a year. Our testers ranked the mattress highly across the board, particularly highlighting its pressure relief, edge support and plush pillow-top.
More Deal Information: Helix offered 30% off this mattress last Memorial Day, so it may be worth waiting for the additional drop if you want to save the most.
Both temperature and snoring can dramatically impact your quality of sleep. If you are (or sleep with) a snorer, this design is incredibly customizable and automatically adjust to you as you sleep. It's also made with temperature-regulating materials, like ceramic-infused foam, that are supposed to pull heat away as you sleep.
More Deal Information: This 30% discount is already one of the best prices we've seen for this best-selling smart mattress, including offers we saw last May.
Formerly the DreamCloud Premier Rest Hybrid, this bed was recently updated with a new name, but it still has all of the features that made it a top pick. Ideal for couples, back and side sleepers, the design truly excels at pressure relief. Its average rating was 9 out of 10, but several testers gave the mattress a full 10, describing the experience as 'sleeping on a cloud that has structure to it.'
More Deals Information: This discount matches the offer we saw last Memorial Day.
This newly updated mattress delivers ample pressure relief with deep contouring to your hips and shoulders. While you'll still feel more 'in' than 'on' your mattress, the Premier is more responsive than the average memory foam design (including its previous iteration), so you can easily change positions throughout the night.
More Deal Information: This discount has remained fairly steady for months now.
Hot sleepers may find some relief from this cooling Brooklyn Bedding mattress, which uses gel-infused memory foam to draw heat away from the body. The breathable hybrid design comes in three firmness levels and offers good edge support. As a hot sleeper herself, senior mattress and sleep editor Bridget Chapman wrote a dedicated review of the Aurora Luxe.
More Deals Information: Brooklyn Bedding typically offers a boosted 30% off over holiday weekends, so wait until Memorial Day if you want to save an extra 5%.
Supportive and cooling, the Leesa Sapira Chill an excellent hybrid design that can accommodate a variety of sleep styles. It also comes in three firmness levels, with one tester describing the medium-firm model as 'plush and airy but on the sturdier side of the scale.' We recommend the plush model for strict side sleepers and anyone with sensitive joints.
More Deals Information: Forbes Vetted readers can save an additional $50 on this model with code FORBES50.

This hybrid innerspring mattress delivers excellent support, spinal alignment and pressure relief, making it our favorite mattress to help combat back pain. The bed also received a unanimous 10 out of 10 for edge support by our testers.
More Deals Information: Saatva often offers $300 off select models, so this is a nice opportunity to save a little extra.
The Plank Firm is one of the firmest mattresses we've ever tested. It has a flippable foam design that lets you choose between two firmness levels and it's one of few mattresses recommended by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).
More Deals Information: This 25% off discount has been active for most of 2025. The brand offered 30% off for Memorial Day last year, so if you want the additional savings, it may be worth holding out.
When Is Memorial Day 2025?> When Is Memorial Day 2025?
Memorial Day 2025 falls on Monday, May 26. That said, we're already seeing some early Memorial Day offers that will likely run through the holiday weekend.
Is Memorial Day A Good Time To Buy A Mattress? > Is Memorial Day A Good Time To Buy A Mattress?
Holiday weekends are a great time to score a discounted mattress, Memorial Day included. Some retailers may wait until the weekend to drop the absolute best prices, but most are already offering great deals. We'll continue updating this list leading up to and throughout the holiday.
What's The Best Month For Mattress Sales?> What's The Best Month For Mattress Sales?
May is one of the best months to buy a mattress: We track prices year-round and have found that Memorial Day sales offer some of the lowest prices of the year—aside from the week after Thanksgiving.
September (during Labor Day weekend) and November (particularly Black Friday) are also good months to buy a mattress. However, if your current setup is causing your sleep to suffering now, you may want to replace your mattress sooner rather than later.
How Do I Get The Best Price On A New Mattress?> How Do I Get The Best Price On A New Mattress?
In addition to shopping during major holidays, another pro tip for saving on a mattress is to look for discounts on bundles. Some mattress brands offer special prices when you buy a bed frame and mattress together. You can also consider shopping for an older, but still well-rated, mattress. Many brands will discount last year's designs as newer models are released.
Which Holiday Is The Best Time To Buy A Mattress?> Which Holiday Is The Best Time To Buy A Mattress?
Historically, holidays like Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, July 4 and Labor Day bring out similar mattress discounts or around 20% to 50% off. However, Black Friday and Cyber Monday usually bring the absolute lowest prices of the year—you'll generally see most popular mattresses marked down by 35% or more.

Authors call on publishers to limit their use of AI
An open letter from authors including Lauren Groff, Lev Grossman, R.F. Kuang, Dennis Lehane, and Geoffrey Maguire calls on book publishers to pledge to limit their use of AI tools, for example by committing to only hire human audiobook narrators. The letter argues that authors' work has been 'stolen' by AI companies: 'Rather than paying writers a small percentage of the money our work makes for them, someone else will be paid for a technology built on our unpaid labor.' Among other commitments, the authors call for publishers to 'make a pledge that they will never release books that were created by machine' and 'not replace their human staff with AI tools or degrade their positions into AI monitors.' While the initial letter was signed by an already impressive list of writers, NPR reports that another 1,100 signatures were added in the 24 hours after it was initially published. Authors are also suing tech companies over using their books to train AI models, but federal judges dealt significant blows to those lawsuits earlier this week.

Tipalti's Darren Upson on the strategic use of AI-driven finance
Tipalti currently serves over 5,000 companies via AI-driven solutions to automate finance operations. These include accounts payable, employee expenses, global pay-outs, procurement, supplier management, and tax compliance. What should excite Tipalti's backers is the sheer scale of the addressable market of prospects not yet using AI-powered finance software. 'There are a huge number of companies, especially those of a more traditional nature, that have not even scratched the surface of automation and what it can do for their businesses,' says Darren is a fully automated, cloud-based platform that simplifies the most complex finance workflows, helping its clients manage end-to-end payables across multiple entities, currencies, and countries—with built-in compliance. And its seamless ERP integrations gives complete visibility and control. So, it eliminates manual work and speeds up the entire payables process, automating everything from invoice approval to global payments and reconciles data seamlessly. That summary is hardly over-techy and should be understandable to even the most basic of business leaders. The Tipalti proposition is boosted by the backing of JPMorgan Chase, which is about as good as it gets if you had the widest possible choice of potential financial backers. Back in 2023, Tipalti raised $150m in growth financing from JPMorgan and Hercules Capital. At the time, it brought total funding to more than $550m and valued the firm at over $8bn. JPMorgan is also one of the major banks Tipalti uses to route its billions of dollars' worth of supplier payments on behalf of its customers. 'We work in the fintech space as an automation platform for accounts payable and also mass payments as well. We are both a software company and a financial services business. We execute payments for our businesses and we handle the whole accounts payable process from start to finish, basically stripping out all of the manual, redundant processes associated with accounts payable. 'As that is the most time-consuming part of finance, we're trying to help organisations, especially those fast-growing businesses, to actually put their people to better use and leverage technology to really do that manual, repetitive work more efficiently, faster and to be more scalable as well.' He says that a typical client firm will be high-growth, pre-IPO outfits that have already embraced automation. They will be firms that understand how automation enables them to be more agile as an organisation. 'The big challenge that exists now is individuals' understanding the art of the possible. There's a lot of people that think that they've already automated everything they can do. But there's always more and with AI tools and the technology that exists out there, there's so many more areas across an organisation that you can automate to create more efficiency, especially when businesses are looking to try and retain and attract talent as well. It's about, how do they make sure that the people that are coming into the workforce now are doing roles that are actually fulfilling and that they enjoy.' In the run up to the UK's Labour government first budget, there was much negative press coverage forecasting doom and gloom if taxes such as capital gains tax were raised. In the end, the rate of increase was not as steep as the most pessimistic forecasts but CGT did rise from 20% to 24% for higher rate taxpayers. And given the track record over history of past Labour governments, further tax rises are more likely than any tax cuts. Upson says that the UK is still the number one destination out of North America for start-ups. 'We've got such a hotbed of talent, and we've got a large banking infrastructure in place as well. So [tax changes] do not mean that the lights are going to go out overnight. But I think that there have to be more incentives to actually attract and support individuals that are looking to build the next big thing.'

Trump's T1 phone drops its ‘Made in the USA' promise.
Trump's T1 phone drops its 'Made in the USA' promise. This week on The Vergecast , we revisited how the flagship Trump Mobile phone suddenly swapped out its 'Made in the USA' claim for 'Designed with American values in mind.' We already had our guesses about who might really make the T1, but with new specs and screen size, we might have to do another round of investigation.
