So if you're looking to squeeze in a yard project before the arrival of fall, or just scoop up some deals on mulch, home appliances, top-brand power tools, and more, now's the time to act. In addition to the always-popular $2 mulch sale available from both home improvement retailers, shoppers can take advantage of home appliance sales with discounts up to 40% off, deals on a wide range of plants, trees, and landscaping supplies, and a special promotion giving away a free cordless power tool at Lowe's (with a qualifying purchase). Below are some of the best deals you'll find at Lowe's and Home Depot Labor Day sales. Take note that in some cases, deals on bulky outdoor items like plants, trees, and mulch are only available in stores. Also, sometimes the deals you'll find in your local Home Depot or Lowe's may be even cheaper than the prices listed below. You can scope out your [local ad at Home Depot](https://www.homedepot.com/c/localad) and [Lowe's](https://www.lowes.com/weekly-ad) for more specifics. And be sure to check out items featured in store clearance sections in particular to find the absolute best deals. ## Mulch Sales Cheap mulch deals have become standard when Home Depot and Lowe's roll out major sales around events like Memorial Day weekend, the Fourth of July, and even "Spring Black Friday."
