As you shop Amazon's thousands of sales, we recommend sticking with reputable brands sold through the e-tailer—and make sure to read the fine print to check that brand-specific trial periods and warranties still apply. It's also worth investigating competitor sales, like from Nectar and DreamCloud, that are running concurrently to Amazon's. And for specific mattress-buying advice to help find your ideal fit, see our guides to the best mattresses on Amazon and the best mattresses of 2025. Helix Midnight Luxe (Queen): Now $1,799, Was $2,374 (24% Off)
Leesa Sapira (Queen): Now $1,399, Was $1,699 (18% Off)
Casper Original (Queen): Now $1,101, Was $1,295 (15% Off)

Amazon Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress (Queen)
Our top pick for the best mattress of 2025 is available on Amazon, and it's on sale for Prime Day. That said, if you're nervous about purchasing a mattress on Amazon, you can alternatively shop on the Helix site and use code FORBES27 at checkout for 27% off. This hybrid bed features a medium firmness that hits the sweet spot for most sleepers, plus cooling technology to help prevent night sweats. We recommend this bed for a wide variety of people: side, back and combination sleepers, individuals under 250 pounds and those who sleep with a partner (though it's great for solo sleepers, too).
Why It's A Good Deal: Although the Amazon price of the Helix Midnight Luxe dipped down $1,780 in June, it has yet to surpass 27% off in 2025—including over mattress-centric deals events like Memorial Day and Fourth of July.
If you're a hot sleeper and need a moderate level of support from both springs and memory foam, you may find the Sapira from Forbes Vetted editor–favorite brand, Leesa, to your liking. Also, it's discounted by $300 this Prime Day. This mattress is 11 inches thick and features cooling foams atop pocketed springs that naturally let air flow through.
Why It's A Good Deal: This is the lowest price we've seen on Amazon since December 2024. If you're looking for something slightly thicker and more temperature-regulating though, the Leesa Sapira Chill (our pick for the best hybrid mattress overall) is currently on sale for 30% off on the brand's website.
Although the Casper Original memory foam mattress has been replaced by the newer Casper One on the brand's website, it remains available on Amazon—and we've spent a lot of time with it in order to write up our full review. The verdict? It's a worthy contender for those who want a memory foam mattress at a fair price. It's also 15% off this Prime Day.
Why It's A Good Deal: This is the second-lowest price we've seen on Amazon in 2025.
We spent enough time with the Purple Original mattress to write an extensive review of it, and found this model to be a great option for those who sleep hotter, as well as combination sleepers who switch postures at night. Like all beds from this brand, the Purple Original uses a proprietary GelFlex Grid technology to cradle the body and relieve pressure. You can get $500 off this mattress for Prime Day.
Why It's A Good Deal: At less than $1,000, this is the lowest price we've seen on Amazon for the Purple Original Mattress since 2022.
This memory foam mattress from Amazon Basics typically comes at a reasonable price, but for Prime Day, it's discounted even further—26% off. It has an average score of 4.4 out of 5 stars after over 6,600 customer ratings, with several users praising its high quality and medium-firm feel. We've researched and evaluated mattresses from the Amazon Basics line to put together our roundup of the best beds on Amazon, and they've proven to hold up well considering their very-low price.
Why It's A Good Deal: This is the second largest Amazon discount we've seen on this bed so far in 2025. It's also significantly less expensive than other memory foam mattresses we've tested.
Sealy is a well-known name in mattresses, and we've tested a number of the brand's beds (both from the original brand and its Cocoon collection) for our ongoing coverage. You can find a handful of Sealy beds on Amazon, including the Dreamlife, which is designed with a layer of cooling gel memory foam that contours to your body and relieves pressure. This bed offers a medium feel, making it a solid choice for back, side and combination sleepers.
Why It's A Good Deal: Because of their larger dimensions, king-size mattresses are generally among the most expensive beds you can buy. That said, this Amazon deal significantly cuts that price down—it's the lowest we've ever seen for this bed.
We've evaluated beds from Zinus to determine our list of the best mattresses on Amazon, and found that the brand's extremely affordable prices belie their models' effectiveness. With a medium feel that's particularly supportive for side sleepers, the Zinus Cloud in particular includes four foam layers engineered to relieve pressure points. And at less than $300 during Prime Day, it's one of the best values for a quality memory foam mattress that's fiberglass-free and backed by third-party safety certifications like CertiPUR-US and Oeko-Tex 100.
Why It's A Good Deal: This is the second lowest price we've seen for this bed in 2025. However, it may be discounted further as Amazon Prime Day continues—it was recently marked down to $244 in June.
The winner in our best mattresses on Amazon roundup, this ultra affordable bed is ideal for a guest room or anyone on a budget. It features a medium-plush feel that's ideal for side sleepers, individuals under 250 pounds or anyone who likes extra cushioning. We appreciate that the foam is CertiPUR-US-certified, meaning it's made without chemicals and has low VOCs.
Why It's A Good Deal: It's the lowest price we've seen on this model since April, coming within $26 of its all-time lowest price for 2025.
Named among our favorite mattresses on Amazon, the Brooklyn Bedding Select Gel Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress provides a medium-firm feel that's a good choice for many back and stomach sleepers. Because of its combination of memory foam and coils, it can hug your curves and provide a decent amount of pressure relief without lacking durability. It also features gel-infused foam to help regulate body temperature as you sleep, making it a solid pick for hot sleepers as well. Note: This bed is available only at third-party retailers like Amazon.
Why It's A Good Deal: This is the lowest recorded price we've seen for this mattress.
As Amazon hosts its Prime Day event this year, we're already seeing those savings extend to other brands who are hosting sales to compete with the retail giant's discounts. Here are some of our favorite mattress companies that are also offering deals if you shop directly through their sites.
To help you get the most out of Amazon Prime Day, we combined our comprehensive mattress and sleep knowledge with our deal-hunting expertise to track down the best mattress sales. Our mattress and sleep team is composed of certified sleep science coaches and tenured mattress testers who've spent years reviewing more than 200 beds. When compiling all our mattress guides, we tap into their wealth of knowledge to make sure we're featuring the most worthwhile options that are designed to help you get a better night's sleep. And speaking of which—most of these mattress brands and models have been thoroughly researched and/or tested by a member of our sleep team.
Our deals team keeps an eye on price changes year-round to make sure we know exactly when a mattress reaches its all-time lowest price. We also compare prices across different retailers to check that you're getting the best deal possible—whether that's on Amazon or at a tried-and-tested mattress brand, like Helix, Nectar and DreamCloud, among others.
Amazon Prime Day deals can quickly change and expire. For that reason, we routinely update this guide before, during and after the event to make sure all the deals in this guide are still live and accurate. We also add more sales to our list as they roll out.

Walmart ramps up e-commerce to rival Amazon's Prime Day event

Walmart (WMT) is trying to outpace Amazon (AMZN) this year with "Walmart Deals Week," a six-day savings event (two days longer than Amazon's Prime Day sales event). Yahoo Finance Senior Reporter Brooke DiPalma breaks down Walmart's latest push to grow its e-commerce and grocery businesses. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination here. Amazon's Prime Day deals will take front and center stage for most shoppers this week, as it extends its signature shopping period to four days for the first time. But this year, as in recent years, it is not alone. Yahoo Finance's Brooke DiPalma joins us now with more, Brooke. Good afternoon to you both. Certainly what we've seen in recent years is really Amazon get taken on by their retail rivals. Think Target, think Walmart specifically, but so many others are looking to get in on this big splash of savings like Target, Home Depot, Lowe's, Best Buy, even Tractor Supply and Ulta Beauty. Well, they're looking to get in on the action, too. But let's take a closer look at one of their biggest competitors, Walmart. Well, Walmart, they're really upping their ante when it comes to their e-commerce business. In the last quarter, that e-commerce business here in the U.S. just turned profitable, and now they're really doubling down on their offering this week. They're instead of just having a four-day event like Amazon Prime, they're looking to do it bigger. And so Walmart's having a six-day event from July 8th to July 13th. That's trumping Amazon Prime's Day event from July 11th, or July 8th rather, to July 11th. Now, some sources tell me that Amazon is clearly the big winner this week. And sure, customers, just top of mind, they'll go to Amazon first, they'll look at the prices. But then ultimately, what they might be doing is going elsewhere in this environment where consumers are so conscientious about how much things cost. They really are conscientious about where exactly they want to spend here. And so they'll go elsewhere. They'll go to that Walmart, they'll go to these other retailers. But this could be a prime opportunity for Walmart. That's what some analysts tell me. Specifically, what they really want to gain here is memberships. The Walmart Deals Week, they're ultimately enticing those Walmart Plus customers, something that launched back in 2020, to sign up. They're saying, hey, through mid-July, we're going to offer 50% off, and that could be a big opportunity for Walmart. But when you really look at another business that Walmart's winning on, that's Walmart Grocery business here. Of course, they've been touting that on recent earnings calls that they're gaining more high-income shoppers, and that Walmart Plus membership also tends to be higher income as well. But when you take a look at the numbers, guys, Walmart's e-commerce business is far, far lower than Amazon's business here when it comes to just how much money they're bringing in. If you take a look at last year right here, you could see that Walmart brought in around $121 billion when it comes to their e-commerce business. That's of course, far lower than Amazon's e-commerce business online stores. And also, when you think about just how much membership fees they bring in, Amazon also surpasses by a landslide how much Walmart Plus brings in when it comes to membership fees. And also, the top side here is that Walmart Plus subscription is far lower than Amazon Prime. Also, they're offering that half off right now. And so it could entice customers. That's ultimately what Walmart wants here. They want to take the eyes away from Amazon. Will there be certain categories, Brooke, where Walmart would think, okay, we have maybe some type of competitive advantage here? Would it be, you know, for example, would it be food sales? Yeah, certainly. So 60% of Walmart's U.S. sales is grocery. And that's what ultimately Amazon has to worry about here. One analyst telling me that one of the biggest things that Amazon, or rather Walmart has to look out for, is if Amazon gets competitive on their grocery business. And what we've seen in recent months is really Amazon invest, look around, see exactly how they could really integrate and grow that Whole Foods acquisition that happened back in 2017, just a few years ago now, it seems like with the pandemic. But really, they're trying to entice consumers here with that.

Fact check: Debunking 11 of Trump's false claims at Cabinet meeting

President Donald Trump again turned a Cabinet meeting into a wide-ranging conversation with reporters – and again uttered a whole bunch of false claims in the process. Trump's Tuesday remarks at the White House included inaccurate assertions about inflation, immigration, his tariff policy, the massive domestic policy bill he signed last week, China's use of wind energy, US and European aid to Ukraine, the US relationship with South Korea, and other subjects. Here is a fact check of 11 of the president's false claims. This is not a comprehensive list. Inflation: As he has repeatedly, Trump falsely claimed Tuesday, 'We have no inflation.' The US does have inflation – an annual inflation rate of 2.4% in May, an uptick from a 2.3% annual rate in April. That April rate was the lowest since early 2021, and lower than some economists expected for April after Trump imposed significant new tariffs, but it's not 'no inflation' whatsoever. (And on a month-to-month basis, US consumer prices increased 0.1% in May and 0.2% in April.) Tax on Social Security: Touting the new domestic policy legislation, Trump repeated his false claim that it achieves his campaign promise of 'no tax on Social Security.' It does not. The legislation does create an additional, temporary $6,000-per-year tax deduction for individuals age 65 and older (with a smaller deduction for individuals earning $75,000 per year or more), but the White House itself has implicitly acknowledged that millions of Social Security recipients age 65 and older will continue to pay taxes on their benefits – and that new deduction, which expires in 2028, doesn't even apply to the Social Security recipients who are younger than 65. Trump's tariff letters: Trump spoke of the letters he sent to various foreign leaders announcing the tariff rates he plans to impose on their countries beginning in August – and said, 'I just want you to know - a letter means a deal.' That's just not true. Multiple letters the White House revealed on Monday announced tariff rates Trump said he plans to unilaterally place on imports from foreign countries; those letters did not describe negotiated deals. Who pays tariffs: Trump repeatedly spoke of how his new tariffs mean other countries will have to 'pay' the US for the privilege of doing business in the US. Contrary to Trump's frequent assertions, it is the US importers who buy foreign products, not foreign countries themselves, who make the tariff payments to the US government. Tariff history: Trump repeated his regular false claim that the US was 'proportionately' at its 'wealthiest' between 1870 and 1913, when tariff revenue made up a much larger share of federal revenue before the reintroduction of the income tax. Trump didn't explain what he meant by 'proportionately' or 'the wealthiest,' but economists say that by any standard measure, the US is far wealthier today than it was in the early 20th century and prior; per capita gross domestic product is now many times higher than it was then. China and wind power: Trump, asserting that 'smart countries' don't use wind and solar energy, repeated his recent false claim that China, the world's biggest manufacturer of wind turbines, barely uses such equipment itself - wrongly saying, 'They don't have a lot of wind farms, I'll tell you; very, very few.' In reality, China is the world leader in the generation of wind power and has massive wind farms onshore and offshore; it continues to install additional wind capacity much faster than the US. California and energy: Trump, reviving a previous inaccurate complaint about California's use of renewable energy sources, falsely claimed: 'They have blackouts and brownouts every week.' The state simply does not; its power system has improved significantly since the rolling blackouts of a 2020 heat wave. Daniel Villasenor, a spokesperson for Gov. Gavin Newsom, said in a Tuesday email that Trump is again 'lying about California.' Villasenor wrote: 'The state has not experienced any rotating outages since 2020 – and in the last three years, no Flex Alert calling to conserve power has even been issued. Not only has our grid been increasingly resilient, it's also cleaner than ever – clean energy provided for 100% of demand on our grid for at least some part of the day 167 out of the first 180 days of the year.' US and European aid to Ukraine: Trump repeated his frequent false claim that the US has provided 'far more' wartime aid to Ukraine that Europe has, saying the US is 'in there for over $300 billion; Europe's in there for over $100 billion.' Those numbers are not close to accurate. According to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German think tank that closely tracks international aid to Ukraine, the US had committed about $139 billion in military, financial and humanitarian aid to Ukraine from late January 2022, just prior to Russia's full-scale invasion, through April 2025 – well short of about $298 billion committed by European countries and the European Union. The gap was much narrower in terms of aid actually allocated through April 2025 – about $183 billion for Europe to about $134 billion for the US – but even those figures clearly disprove Trump's claim. South Korea's military cost-sharing: Trump repeated his false claim that South Korea convinced former President Joe Biden to let it stop making payments to help cover the cost of the US military presence in South Korea, saying Biden 'cut it down to nothing.' In fact, Biden's administration signed two cost-sharing agreements with South Korea, one in 2021 and one in 2024, that included South Korean spending increases – meaning South Korea agreed to pay more than it did during Trump's first term. US troops in South Korea: Trump again exaggerated the US troop presence in South Korea, falsely saying, 'You know, we have 45,000 soldiers in South Korea.' Official Defense Department data, published online, says the US had 26,206 military personnel in South Korea as of March 31, 2025, with 22,844 on active duty. Migration and mental health: Trump falsely claimed that unnamed foreign countries 'released their insane asylum – the insane asylum population into our country.' Even Trump's own presidential campaign could not produce any evidence for his frequent claims, which he has repeated for more than two years, that foreign countries deliberately emptied their mental health facilities to somehow get patients to migrate to the United States.

It's currently open to those with Icon status, followed by Ambassadors on July 9 and the general public on July 12 (your yearly spend amount determines your Nordy Club level). It's a great time to score designer goods at steep discounts—in years past, we've seen deals on top brands including Longchamp, Hoka and Charlotte Tilbury—but there are thousands of items to sift through. That's why our shopping editors used their expertise to pull the best deals worth considering, including rarely discounted items and can't-miss designer markdowns. Here's everything we know about this year's Nordstrom Anniversary Sale—plus our favorite offers you ... More can shop now.

And, we'll continue to update this story with more deals as they go live.

This simple barrel-legged pair is slouchy, but still looks elevated. The style is on sale for $120 directly from Madewell, so this is a great chance to pick up a pair for even less. Just in time for summer, this chunky raffia sandal is on sale in four colorways. The style includes a 1-inch platform, serrated sole and adjustable straps. Most reviewers say the sandal fits true to size and is largely comfortable, albeit a bit heavy. If you need a new work tote, consider this option from Tory Burch. It has enough structure to stand on its own and plenty of internal space, including a zippered pocket to stash your essentials. Crescent bags are having a moment; if you want to hop on the trend, this luxury design from Marc Jacobs is a gorgeous option.

This adorable candle set would make a great gift. The kit includes four aromatherapy candles modeled after classic bowls of cereal from your childhood, like Lucky Charms and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Le Creuset is known for its durable, high-quality cookware, and this Dutch oven is an excellent addition to any home cook's arsenal. The enameled exterior is chip-resistant, and it's dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. This cozy throw blanket looks great draped over an armchair, bed or living room sofa. It's made from 100% cotton, which is breathable yet warm. Dress up your little one in this organza dress from Laura Ashley. The button-back closure make it easy to put on and take off, and the oversized bow in the back makes a stylish statement. Uggs remain popular for a reason: The boots are extremely comfortable and warm thanks to the wool-blend lining. Your kiddo is sure to love slipping these on when the weather gets cold, and the plush insole keeps little feet from feeling sore, even after a day at the playground. Now that it's summer, it's a good time to stock up on warm-weather essentials like bathing suits for the pool and beach. This one-piece option features bows on both shoulders and a charming cherry print.

It has a 40-inch diameter and can be easily washed when it inevitably gets dirty. What Is The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale? The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the department store's biggest sale of the year. The annual event features thousands of deals across just about every category, from fashion staples to skincare to baby gear. It's typically a good opportunity to stock up on designer finds and fall must-haves for less. What Is The Difference Between The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale And The Anniversary Sale? Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale is a smaller bi-annual event that typically occurs once in the spring and once in the fall. Its Anniversary Sale takes place once a year over the summer and is known for major price cuts across all categories. Both sales always have notable offers, but the Anniversary Sale typically includes steeper discounts on more coveted items, as well as deals on fall and winter styles. Can I Shop The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early? Nordstrom cardholders can shop the sale early. The allotted dates are connected to your membership tier, which is a reflection of how much you've spent at the department store over the past year. The tiers are as follows: Icons (cardholders who've spent $15,000 or more in the past year) can shop July 8 through July 11; Ambassadors (cardholders who've spent $5,000 or more in the past year) can shop July 9 through July 11; Influencers (cardholders who've spent $500 or more in the past year) can shop July 10 through July 11.
