September always starts off with a bang. Retailers like to kick off the month with massive Labor Day sales that take hundreds of dollars off 4K TVs, Apple gear, Samsung phones, and everything they can throw your way.
Amazon usually leads the charge, but this year its sales aren't as good as I've seen in the past and I think I know why. Earlier this summer, Amazon confirmed it would hold another Prime Day this October. There's no word yet on a date, but last year Amazon held its Prime Early Access Sale on October 11, so I'd watch that date. As a result, I think Amazon is holding it's really good sales till October.
That's not to say they don't have any good deals today — indeed they do — you just need to dig around for them. I've spent all day looking at Labor Day sales at Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and other stores. Below I'm spotlighting the 13 best deals I've seen today at Amazon. This includes deals on 4K TVs, Apple devices, and Galaxy phones. Some of these deals may last all week, but a good majority will probably expire at midnight tonight. I've price checked every deal so you're getting the best price possible. So without further ado — here are the best Amazon Labor Day sales today.
