Should You Shop the 4th of July Appliance Sales?

There are several reasons you should indeed shop for deals during the 4th of July appliance sales. This year especially you’ll be able to score huge discounts if you plan your shopping well and narrow down your lists to the appliances you need and can afford.

Prime Day sales last month were hugely successful, but the emphasis during Prime Day isn’t as much on appliances and major purchases as it is on electronics for productivity and entertainment. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the other largest annual sales events. Black Friday sales encompass all categories, but once again electronics and devices of all types are major draws plus many shoppers use Black Friday as a chance to save on holiday gifts for themselves and others.

Early spring to the beginning of summer typically have the best selection and the deepest discounts on all things to improve, repair, and upgrade homes. Last year the pandemic forced many of us to spend much more time at home than usual. When we had to remain home and work remotely and our kids were required to stay home for remote learning, the initial reaction was a huge surge in spending on home office equipment for productivity and homeschooling devices for remote learning.

As we spent more time cooking at home, sales of small and large kitchen appliances took off. We worked out at home because most gyms were closed and many people didn’t feel safe going to gyms that remained open while the virus was raging. Accordingly, a run on home workout equipment quickly resulted in widespread shortages and long waits for treadmills, exercise bikes, and other equipment.

The longer the pandemic-related lockdowns lasted the more people decided to improve the comfort and overall quality of their homes. By this time in 2020 retailers’ inventories were often bare of home appliances and anything related to home improvement. This year the demand has continued, but now most manufacturers are back in production and retailers have been able to rebuild their inventories.

Because the demand for home appliances has remained strong, retailers stocked up on their inventories. Now that the traditional home appliance buying season is coming to an end with the 4th of July sales, however, this year is a particularly good time to take advantage of 4th of July appliance sales.

From Callaway to Prowithlin: The 7 best golf ball retrievers in 2024
The Callaway Golf Ball Retriever for Water in action.

As in life, in golf not everything goes to plan. A day of fairways and greens is not a given, even if you're using one of the best golf GPS devices to plan your way around traps. For all those times your ball ends up under a thorny bush, in the water, or anywhere else off the beaten path, you're going to need a golf ball retriever if you don't want to go through a bucket of balls faster than the trainees on the driving range.

But what should you get? Golf ball retrievers are, in terms of appearance, what we call rather samey in the product evaluation world. A stick with a loop or grabber on the end. And, unlike other samey-looking objects like bottles of cologne, there is no style, flavor, or presence to a golf ball retriever to judge by. These are purely functional objects and it makes them hard to evaluate by the eye alone. Much to just about anyone's displeasure, golf ball retrievers are about materials science and strong engineering. Words and phrases like extension length, durability, tensile strength, weight, and cost effectiveness all begin to rattle in the mind. Here, we present the best golf ball retriever — golf ball retrievers used and enjoyed by golfers like you — and find their usability, strengths, and where they fall short.

great smoky mountains national park synchronous fireflies lottery opens aerial view

Tucked away in Tennessee, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park serves as the backdrop for a mesmerizing natural spectacle: the synchronous firefly display. Every summer, this event draws crowds from all over the world, and it's definitely worth the trek. This year, the event will take place from Monday, June 3 to Monday, June 10 at Elkmont. However, you won't be able to simply walk in this time. Like many national parks, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has implemented a lottery-based reservation system to help manage the crowds. This is an opportunity that you won't want to miss, so here's everything you need to know about securing your reservation and why you should go in the first place.

The synchronous fireflies (Photinus carolinus) at Elkmont are one of at least 19 species of fireflies in the park, but what sets them apart is their unique behavior of flashing lights in unison. This phenomenon occurs for a period of about two weeks each year, during which males fly and flash together to attract mates, creating waves of light that ripple through the forest darkness. It’s breathtaking.
