Memorial Day signifies the unofficial start of summer. Just a few weeks left in the school year, warmer temperatures, and weekend barbecues on the calendar mean we've made it out of winter's hibernation. But that doesn't mean sleep should get put on the backburner.
Sleep is one of life's basic pillars, and it impacts our mood, health, brain function, and much more. If you've ever had a terrible month of sleep, you know how detrimental a sleep deficit can be on pretty much every aspect of waking hours.
Instead of putting the milk in the cupboard on account of a sleepy brain, prioritize sleep this summer by snagging a luxurious new mattress while it's on sale. Memorial Day sales tend to come with some of the best discounts in the mattress world, so this is an ideal time to upgrade your sleep set-up. And best of all, tons of sales are already live, even though Memorial Day weekend is still a few weeks away. Here are some of our top picks.

Why we like it
With a quilted Euro Top, the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid mattress starts off with a comfortable but supportive feel that'll help lull you into sleep. The other four layers are comprised of memory foams for pressure relief and individually wrapped innerspring coils for great support. DreamCloud considers the Premier Hybrid to have a medium-firm feel, and the coils are designed to help minimize motion transfer which can be great if you share the bed with a partner or the dog.
In a queen size, the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid usually sells for $2,330 but thanks to the brand's Memorial Day sale, you can snag it for just $949.
Best luxury mattress deal
Why we like it
Purple makes some of the most unique bedding options thank to the brand's GelFlex Grid. It's made from a hyper elastic polymer that's incredible when it comes to pressure relief and comfort. As a bonus, it's super breathable. The Purple Restore Hybrid mattress uses a two-inch layer of the GelFlex Grid that can work great for all sleeping positions. Two layers of foam sit below the initial grid layer followed by supportive and responsive coils. Lastly, Purple uses an antimicrobial cover so you can sleep better knowing your bed is clean.
Instead of paying the normal $2,399 for a queen-size Purple Restore Hybrid, shop during this Memorial Day sale to get it for just $2,099. You'll save even more if you pair it with the Purple Premier Plus Smart Base which gives your sleeping set-up another major upgrade.
Best budget-friendly mattress deal
Why we like it
Some sleepers love the plush feel of an all-foam mattress. One of the most affordable options that doesn't sacrifice comfort is the Bear Original mattress. For starters, the mattress is entirely fiberglass free (yes, some beds contain fiberglass) and the foam is certified to be non-toxic. But beyond that, the mattress offers awesome comfort at an affordable price.
The Bear Original uses three layers of cozy but supportive foam, striking that balance between comfort and ergonomic alignment. Memory foam can be an issue for hot sleepers since the material can often trap heat but Bear uses a cooling gel memory foam in the Original mattress that helps pull unwanted body heat away from the sleeper. The breathable quilted cover is also great for cooling comfort.
In a queen size, the Bear Original usually sells for $998 but the Bear Memorial Day mattress sale brings the price down to just $649. Plus, you'll get two free Cirrus Cloud Pillows for a full bed refresh this spring.
