When it comes to online shopping, there’s one store that almost everyone has bought something from at least once: Amazon. The massive online retailer is one of the biggest names in the business, and with Prime Day on the horizon, Prime Members have a lot of deals to look forward to this summer. We’ve already seen some great Memorial Day sales from Walmart, Home Depot, and Best Buy, but Amazon appears to be staying under the radar with its weekend sales.
Despite not having a landing page for its Memorial Day sales, Amazon is discounting a number of different items. Smartwatches, tablets, 4K TVs, smart home devices, and laptops are all getting discounts to stay competitive with prices from Walmart and Best Buy. So if you’re looking to save some serious cash on some shiny new tech this weekend, take a gander at some of the best deals we've found.

Below are a few of the best discounts we could dig up:
