Today is the last day of Amazon’s Labor Day sale, so all shoppers — not just Prime members — have less than 24 hours left to browse thousands of deals across categories. Experts say you’ll find the strongest discounts on summer-related outdoor items, clothing and shoes, mattresses, bedding, furniture and appliances, but Amazon is dropping prices on essentials like skin care, groceries and cleaning supplies, too.

Below, I rounded up the best Amazon Labor Day deals available now, all of which end tonight. The retailer is putting new items on sale throughout the day, so I’ll frequently update this list — save the link so you can check in later to see what’s new.

Best Amazon Labor Day deals 2026

Use this handheld vacuum to clean small messes around your home or in your car. It’s lightweight at 1.4 pounds, making it easy to carry around, and it has strong suction to get rid of dirt, dust, crumbs and pet hair. To empty the dust cup, you simply hold the vacuum over the trash and press down on the eject button. It comes with a charging dock and two accessories: a multi-surface pet tool and a duster crevice tool.

You’re always going to need household essentials like dishwasher pods, so you may as well buy them while they’re on sale. Finish’s pods come in a pack of 62 and each one has three cleaning solutions inside: a powder that scrubs and breaks down stuck-on food, a gel that gets rid of grease and liquid that adds shine. The brand says you don’t need to pre-rinse dishes before using these, saving you time and water.

Beyond being effective and easy to apply, Lumineux’s Teeth Whitening Strips are non-irritating, according to our testers with sensitive teeth. Instead of bleaching ingredients like peroxides, these strips use dead sea salt, lemon peel oil, coconut oil and sage oil to remove yellow plaque and remove tooth stains, according to the brand. Each set of whitening strips comes individually packed, and the strip for your bottom teeth is curved to better fit your mouth. You get 42 strips in this pack, which is enough for 21 30-minute treatments.

Instead of bristles, this grill brush has a microfiber pad on its head, which you dunk in water and use to scrub your hot grate, creating steam that gets rid of food, oil and residue. The brush also has built-in scrapers if you need extra help removing gunk, and its handle is long to keep you away from the heat. The tool is dishwasher-safe.

This is my favorite Stanley water bottle because it has a flip-up straw built into its lid — I snap it shut when I’m not drinking, making it leak-proof so I can throw it in my bag and not worry about spillage if I knock it over. The 30-ounce tumbler is made from stainless steel and double-wall vacuum insulation, keeping beverages iced for up to 48 hours, according to the brand. It’s dishwasher-safe, cupholder compatible and has a convenient handle on the lid, too.

These are some of the most supportive, comfortable walking shoes I’ve tested due to their thick layer of cushioning, which also makes them ideal for casual runs and standing for long periods of time. The shoes have a curved outsole that encourages smooth heel-to-toe transitions, as well as a wide base that adds stability. They’re available in men’s and women’s sizes, and three widths: standard, wide and extra wide.

The main compartment of this beloved Land’s End tote is large enough to fit a 15-inch laptop. It has a zipper closure to keep everything inside, and there’s interior and exterior pockets to help you organize, plus a key strap. The bag is structured with a flat bottom, so it stands upright and stays open when you’re filling or unpacking it. The shoulder straps are very comfortable, in my experience, and there’s water-resistant details on the exterior, too.

This pack of paper towels comes with two rolls that are divided into quick-size sheets, letting you tear off small, medium and big pieces depending on the mess. The towels are highly absorbent and strong thanks to their diamond texture, according to the brand.

While I rely on cooling towels most often during the summer months, they’re a year-round staple in my gym bag — I use them after runs and HIIT classes to lower my body temperature and wipe away sweat. I bought Sunkeen’s cooling towels years ago because each one comes in a bag with a carabiner clip, making them convenient to store and travel with. The towels are soft, lightweight and long enough that I can wrap them around my neck or head. You get four in this pack.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser is a gentle option for all skin types that scrubs away makeup, dirt and oil. It also helps maintain the skin’s natural pH and soften skin thanks to ingredients like squalane, avocado oil and glycerin. The cleanser is fragrance-free and noncomedogenic, which means it won’t clog pores.

Blend, serve and store food in the 20-ounce cups that come with this personal blender. You just twist the blade attachment onto a cup and connect it to the motor base before starting a cycle, and once it’s done, you swap the blades for a spout or storage lid. The cups and attachments are dishwasher-safe.

As the seasons change, you might be dealing with allergies or illnesses like a cold or flu. To prepare, add an air purifier to your home, like this one from Blueair. Its four-layer filter removes pollutants like pet dander, pollen, bacteria, viruses and dust from the air, as well as absorbs odors. The appliance is best for rooms up to 1,138 square-feet, and you can connect it to an app via Bluetooth to control it from your phone or via voice commands. It also has built-in air quality sensors and comes with a washable pre-filter.

You can use Away’s versatile The Everywhere Bag for overnight trips or as your personal item on planes, plus take it to the gym and work. It has a roomy main compartment with a padded laptop sleeve, pockets, a water bottle holder and a detachable key clip. It also has an exterior trolley sleeve and two types of padded straps: shoulder straps and a removable shoulder strap. The bag is made with a water-repellent nylon fabric so it’s extra durable.

Why are Amazon’s Labor Day sales worth it?

Amazon’s Labor Day sale historically offers strong deals across categories, especially ones the retailer is trying to get rid of prior to the fall, like summer clothing, shoes and outdoor goods. The savings event is open to all shoppers, not just Prime members, although loyalty members may get access to exclusive discounts.

All of the Amazon Labor Day deals I recommend above are based on NBC Selected’s previous coverage and reporting. I evaluated the quality of deals to make sure they meet the below criteria:

• At least 20% off
• Highly rated with at least a 4-star average rating from hundreds of Amazon customers
• From a reputable brand the NBC Selected staff has written about or tested first-hand
