Bear
Bear’s Elite Hybrid Mattress is a fantastic choice if you suffer from back pain. Bear makes some of the firmest mattresses we’ve ever tried, but even as a side sleeper I found this mattress comfortable all night long. Bear’s Memorial Day Sale has everything 35 percent off, plus two free pillows, with the code MEMORIALDAY. Bear usually runs a 30 percent discount on its site, so it’s not a huge discount off what we usually see, but it’s still a great price for a great mattress. The discount is based on the price we usually see rather than the mattress’s base price.
Leesa
Leesa’s Early Access Memorial Day Sale is code-free, with 25 percent off certain mattresses on its site. Our favorites from Leesa are its cooling mattresses, specifically the Leesa Sapira Chill and the Leesa Legend Chill Hybrid. You can score both during the early sale, with the discount shown based on the price we usually see.

Cozy Earth
Cozy Earth’s sale is actually for Mother’s Day, but its decadent bedding is always a great one to score on sale. Cozy Earth makes everything from sheets and comforters to towels and robes, all of which I love using around my home. Bamboo sheets are a huge favorite of everyone I show them to, so if you haven’t gotten a set yet, now’s the time.
Nuzzie
Nuzzie is a smaller bedding brand that primarily makes fantastic weighted blankets, but also makes a set of my favorite cooling bamboo sheets. Nuzzie’s running a spring sale with the code SPRING15 to get 15 percent off both sheets and weighted blankets, and I can’t recommend both enough as we head into hotter weather. I also really love how lightweight Nuzzie’s Ice Knit weighted blankets are and how cool the bamboo cover is, especially as someone who prefers a gentle weight over a heavy press of a blanket. (I use the 12-pound, even though that’s below the recommended 10 percent of my weight.)
