What is Memorial Day?

Memorial Day, which is on the last Monday in May every year, is a time when we remember the military personnel who have lost their lives while serving our country in the military.

It’s also one of the biggest sales days all year long, with thousands of products going on sale throughout the weekend leading up to the holiday—seriously, think every kitchen appliance, from grill pans to Instant Pots.
