Columbus Day sales, unlike Labor Day sales or even Fourth of July sales, aren't really a thing. If you consider it for a second—and remind yourself that Christopher Columbus was a
monster who didn't discover anything—you realize Columbus Day shouldn't really even be a holiday. This year's “holiday," which we will now only refer to as Indigenous Peoples Day, is even stranger, thanks to its proximity to a delayed Amazon Prime Day. The mega-retailer will flex its muscle with an onslaught of discounts literally the day after the occasion. Based on our initial scans, it seems like most of the other tech and home goods retailers are holding their sale cards close to the chest, waiting to unleash their best deals until Prime Day begins in earnest. But for now, there's still some decent price drops available on a range of gear, especially home tech and furniture upgrades. Here's some of the best sales we could find, all available to shop this weekend.
