When do July 4th sales start this year?
While Independence Day falls on July 4 every year, holiday sales often tend to hang around for a few days before and after. Amazon also announced that its next Prime Day will take place from July 8 to 11, so the two sales may blend into one massive shopping event.
Where are the best pre-July 4th sales?
Fourth of July sales offer some of the best prices on tech, appliances, mattresses and fashion, making it a great time to snag stellar prices on must-have items, and there are a ton of retailers participating in the holiday savings. Unsurprisingly, Amazon is usually one of the best places to buy because it sells products from almost all major brands across these popular categories, making it a tremendous one-stop shop for all of your Fourth of July buys.
Outside of Amazon, we recommend checking out appliance and tech sales at Best Buy, Home Depot and Lowe's, as well as holiday sales on a large variety of categories at Target, Nordstrom and Walmart, among others.
Should I shop July 4th sales or wait for Prime Day deals?
There's no definitive way to say whether Fourth of July sales or Prime Day deals are best. Both sales offer plenty of deals, including some of the best prices we'll see all year. Plus, it's likely the two sales will blur into one big discount extravaganza, given their proximity.
Fourth of July sales offer more variety in retailers, although much of your shopping may take place on Amazon anyway. There are also plenty of non-Amazon retailers that will keep their sales rolling through mid-July, often directly competing with Amazon Prime prices. Because you'll be able to shop so many Fourth of July sales, grab what you need and then keep tabs on Prime Day deals later for anything you miss out on. It's worth noting that outdoor or home improvement deals may be more readily available for Fourth of July, while electronics savings, especially on Amazon's own devices, will see lots of discounts during the Prime Day event.

The Senate and the Supreme Court

The Senate narrowly passed Republicans' sprawling bill to slash taxes and social safety net programs. Vice President JD Vance cast the tiebreaking vote, after three Republican senators — Susan Collins, Thom Tillis and Rand Paul — voted no. The bill extends roughly $3.8 trillion in tax cuts enacted during Trump's first term and increases funding for border security and the military. It cuts about $1.1 trillion from health care programs, mainly Medicaid, which experts estimate will cause nearly 12 million Americans to lose coverage. The bill, which could affect millions of Americans, is a major political gamble, Carl Hulse writes. The House must now decide whether to pass the Senate's version of the bill or try to reconcile it with its own. Any delays could mean that Congress misses the July 4 deadline that Trump set. The Morning's readers were interested in the bill yesterday (it was our most-clicked link). Here's more from Times reporters who were in the Capitol: In all, senators voted 49 times during a 27-hour marathon session. They wore fluffy blankets and pullover sweatshirts inside the chilly chamber. Senator Lisa Murkowski, Republican of Alaska, cast a deciding vote for the bill after winning carveouts for her state. 'Do I like this bill? No,' she told NBC News afterward. 'But I tried to take care of Alaska's interests.' Trump and Elon Musk returned to jousting on social media about the legislation. The bill's policies could inflict major financial pain on poor Americans. Republicans have insisted that the policy package will help seniors and the middle class. Here's a fact check. Covering the court The end of June is some combination of Christmas and Tax Day for Adam Liptak, who has covered the Supreme Court for The Times since 2008. That's when the justices release a dizzying array of rulings: This term's major cases, some of which were decided earlier in the year, touched on guns, porn, police tactics, religion, citizenship, L.G.B.T.Q. rights, vapes and TikTok.

Celebrating the Fourth of July? Here's how to get a free Uber ride in Wisconsin

Pemberton Personal Injury Law Firm has partnered with Uber to offer Wisconsinites free rides on the Fourth of July. Independence Day is "one of the most dangerous holidays" for Wisconsin drivers, the law firm's website says. In 2023, alcohol-related crashes accounted for 38% of traffic deaths nationwide over the holiday weekend, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. To encourage sober driving and safer celebrations, the law firm is providing Wisconsin residents with one free Uber ride worth up to $25 in select cities from 4 p.m. July 4 to 9 a.m. July 5. William Pemberton, the firm's owner and founding attorney, said in a statement helping people avoid DUIs "is just as important as representing victims after a crash." "The heartbreak and devastation that drunk driving accidents cause are entirely preventable," Pemberton said. "If one ride saves a life, this effort will be worth every penny, and we're happy to do our part to prevent these tragedies.' The offer applies to riders 21 or older. To redeem the offer, use the official campaign link or scan the QR code on Pemberton's website. More: Are you traveling for the Fourth of July? Here's when traffic will be at its worst Aside from the age requirement, your ride must start and end in one of the following cities: Milwaukee Madison Green Bay Eau Claire La Crosse Appleton Waukesha Baraboo Other eligible areas include Fitchburg, Sun Prairie, Middleton, Reedsburg, Sauk City, Altoona, De Pere, Howard, Ashwaubenon, Brookfield, New Berlin, Pewaukee, Onalaska, Kaukauna and Little Chute.
