With fall fast approaching, my interest is turning towards creating a cozy nest for the cooler month's ahead. I've rounded up the best Labor Day deals across the comfortable mattresses, warming bedding, and snuggly pyjamas to welcome in the new cooler season.

If, like me, a new mattress is at the top of your fall shopping list, our best mattress guide contains top-rated options for all sleepers and budgets. But I'm not stopping there. In my quest for the ultimate cozy nest, I'm also shopping for new bedding, pyjamas and a luxe weighted blanket. 

The Labor Day mattress sales unofficially marks the end of summer, and is when many mattress brands discount their mattress and sleep accessories — making now an excellent time to invest in a new bed and bedding for fall. Grab yourself a pumpkin spiced latte and let's dive in to what I'm buying in this weekend's sales.

This mattress features a plush layer of cloud foam which is ideal for anyone looking for a softer, more luxurious sleep experience. It doesn’t skimp on the pressure relief either, contouring to your body it will provide targeted pressure relief and help to alleviate pain and discomfort. It boasts a supportive core which ensures proper spinal alignment making it the ideal mattress for all sleeping styles. Puffy do run regular sales but the current discount is absolutely epic with savings of up to $1,350.

The change in seasons can bring stress and anxiety for some, so now is a good time to get a weighted blanket which can help ease some of those feelings.

Why is Labor Day is a good time to refresh your bed? 

Labor Day, which is celebrated on the first Monday of September, unofficially marks the end of summer. From here on the temperatures begin to cool and the days shorten, which makes it an ideal time to update your sleep space to reflect this comfortable and cozy time of year. 

Labor Day is also when many retailers slash their prices meaning it’s an excellent time to score a really good deal on the best mattresses, bedding and sleep accessories on the market. It's also the last major sales event until the towards the end of the year, when we see prices reduced for Black Friday.
