Of course we would normally recommend spending more than $65 on a mattress. After all, as with most products, when it comes to mattresses, you get what you pay for. But in this case, and for this price, it's worth mentioning as one of the best deals at Walmart this Labor Day. If you're in need of a first "big kid" bed for a little one or need a mattress for the bunk bed or trundle bed for your grandkids, this mattress is a perfectly fine option. 

In fact, most reviewers say it's decent quality at this price point, especially for those types of use cases.

"Great price," wrote one reviewer. "Been looking around for an affordable mattress for my kids bunk beds."

"We were needing a mattress for the trundle bed in our granddaughters room and this fits nicely," wrote one grandparent. "Easy transport being that it came rolled in the box. I must admit I was worried about the quality, even when unrolling it. The springs felt very prominent. But once unrolled and allowed to expand, it really isn't bad."

Prefer a firm sleep surface? Beautyrest's ComforPedic uses gel memory foam with three layers of support for a more firm feel. The multi-layer design has reduced motion transfer and increased airflow to help prevent overheating. It's also free of fiberglass. At 70% off, this is a total steal.

$590 at Wayfair

The right mattress can mean the difference between an okay night's sleep or a great one. If you fancy yourself the Goldilocks of sleepers — needing something that's neither too soft nor too firm — the Original Mattress from Tuft & Needle is a good place to start.

What makes this mattress unique is that it's designed with a one-of-a-kind cooling gel as well as heat-conducting graphite material that makes for an incredibly comfortable and breathable night's sleep. It's an especially good design for those who consider themselves hot sleepers.

More than 25,000 shoppers swear by it with one reviewer saying it helped her chronic pain: "When I was traveling, I stayed in an Airbnb that had this mattress and I slept better than I had in years. As soon as I got home, we ordered one. I have much less disturbance to my sleep because I don't have to shift my position constantly to stay comfortable!"

$716 at Tuft & Needle

Make sure your bed is ready for autumn and winter with a seasonal down alternative duvet insert. This one is great for allergy sufferers as the down alternative fill won't trigger any allergies in the way that down and duck feather fills might.

If you buy just one Labor Day deal this weekend, it should be these unassuming 1,800 thread count sheets. They are perfect for spare beds when you just want to have an extra couple of sheets on hand for overnight guests. Given that they're OEKO-TEX certified and contain no harmful substances or chemicals, it's pretty much a no-brainer. You can choose from over 15 colors. Get them in Twin to California King sizing.

$20 at Wayfair

These pillows are Amazon's No. 1 bestselling bed pillows, with more than 240,000 reviews.And right now you can get both King and Queen sizes for 20% off, making this two-pack a better deal than you'll find on most single standard-sized pillows.

What makes these Beckham Hotel Collection pillows unique is that they're made of a luxurious, ultra-soft, breathable down alternative fill that won't shift or deform overtime like many other types of pillows. The down alternative fill is a great option for those with allergies, too, who might have sensitivities to other pillow fills like feather, down and foam.

Don't fret if you're a side sleeper — these pillows are designed for stomach, back and side sleepers so anyone can find their perfect snoozing position.

We reviewed the Nespresso Vertuo earlier this year and found it to be one of the best affordable espresso machines out there — and now it's on sale!

Not only does it have the ability to make a mug of coffee, but it can brew up espressos and double espressos in seconds. In fact, you can buy pods in six brewing sizes in all types of flavors, recipes and intensities so chances are you'll find something to suit your tastes.

This isn't your grandmother's Tupperware, but it might look like it. If the sight of this Tupperware takes you back to home cooked meals in your childhood kitchen, then it might be time to bring back the memories with your very own set.

Slight in profile but big in usefulness, the K-Slim + ICED serves up both hot coffee and brews over ice, so you can enjoy a warming cup by the fire pit at night or a refreshing, cold pick-me-up in the a.m. You can make up to four 8-oz. cups before needing to refill the water reservoir, and at less than 5 inches wide, this multitasker will take up just a little bit of real estate on your kitchen counter.

You can still have fresh herbs even if you don't have a back garden or a green thumb. This AeroGarden Harvest is a small countertop indoor hydroponic herb garden that even those with brown thumbs will find easy to use. This starter kit includes six seed pods and liquid plant food to set you up for success.

In fact, I used to own this very same AeroGarden and loved how I could easily grow basil, thyme and mint right in my small Brooklyn kitchen. The only reason I no longer have one is because I moved across the pond!

This is an outrageous price for AirPods. While this isn't a record-low price, it's still a solid deal on a pair of AirPods, especially if you've been toying with getting a pair or need to replace your current pair.

These are the second-generation model and have been a top-seller for a while, with loads of reviews.

"I bought these for my son’s birthday for him to use on a recent trip out of state," said one shopper. "They were great for the plane ride and the long drives and have kept him entertained."

$89 at Amazon

I've owned a pair of these Beats over-ear headphones for years now. I wore mine so much while renovating my house that I ended up buying a second pair: one for wearing while doing dirty tasks like sanding, painting and gardening and the other for everything else.

I love the noise cancelling feature on these hfeadphones, which drowns out surrounding noise and distractions — perfect for working from, during your commute or in a bustling office.

Generally speaking, we would say it's probably better to spend more than $75 on a TV, but with a deal this good it has to be mentioned. 

Now here's the thing: This small but mighty 32-inch smart TV isn't going to have the best built-in speakers and it might run smoother with an external TV stick rather than relying on the built-in software that could make it lag over time. BUT. If you're simply looking for an affordable, small TV that can be put in your kitchen, spare bedroom, or even the playroom, you truly can't miss with this deal.

Plus, it has a 4.6-star rating among more than 20,000 reviewers on Amazon, who've been satisfied with its performance. Most reviewers mention that it's a great TV, especially for the price.

If you spend a lot of time driving, it's inevitable that you'll end up with a spill or two eventually. Make sure your car looks good as new afterward with the Bissell Little Green portable carpet cleaner, which removes spots and stains by lifting away messes from carpets, upholstery, car interiors and more. It has a strong spray and suction design that helps you target stuck-in stains and work them out.

More than 10,000 reviews on Walmart are obsessed with this stain-fighting tool.

"I used this carpet cleaner for my seats and, wow, the difference speaks for itself."

Last year, Jennifer Garner shared with InStyle that Hydro Boost is one of her favorite products.

"I can instantly tell the difference — it just looks fresh and plump and better. There are all these little micro-lines that once I put this on, they go away," she said. "This is 48 hours of moisture that you're locking in with one thing, and then I don't have to worry about it. … I think it's my favorite product we've ever put out."

She's been a devout Neutrogena fan over the years. So much so that she became an ambassador for the brand. 

Hydro Boost's main ingredient is hyaluronic acid, which binds water to the skin’s surface to help give you smoother, hydrated, more supple skin. The fast-acting gel moisturizer is also lightweight, oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it's designed not to clog your pores.

Rocking chairs are the ultimate backyard flex. This one from Mainstays has a traditional yet elegant slatted design that makes it look much more pricey than it actually is.
