45 best May long weekend sales in Canada — shop Victoria Day deals up to 75% off at Best Buy, Amazon, Walmart and more
As a shopping editor, part of my job is to find the best sales and deals available for Canadians on any given day. That task becomes far easier when it's a long weekend, as many retailers, including Amazon, Best Buy and Coach Outlet, tend to drop limited-time weekend deals. This May long weekend is a great example of that. Right now, Canadians can still shop thousands of deals on tech, home and living, beauty, fashion and more, thanks to a bevy of Victoria Day long weekend sales.
Whether you're in the market for a new pair of hiking shoes or hoping to snag spring gardening and cleaning essentials for less, this weekend is a fantastic time to save some (serious) cash.

I Went To The Amazon Prime Analyst Day. Here's What I Learned.
Last week, I attended Amazon's first-ever Prime Analyst Day in Seattle. It was a valuable opportunity to hear firsthand from senior executives who updated us on Amazon's latest innovations and strategic direction. Here are five key takeaways. Daniel Rausch, Vice President, Alexa and Echo, gave us a demo of the new generative AI-enabled Alexa. It's smarter, more intuitive and more personalized. 'Amazon's strategy is to help shoppers get things done,' Rausch told us. While the old Alexa was mainly about replenishment tasks, Alexa+ can help shoppers explore more – increasingly important for a marketplace selling millions of products. The first-ever Amazon Prime Analyst Day took place in Seattle in June 2025. Using the larger Echo Show displays, Rausch asked Alexa to help him find a cowboy hat for a Beyoncé concert. He then built a grocery list by asking for specific products as well as ingredients for a recipe. The fluidity of the conversation, the speed of the results, ease of modifications, and the visual cues made for an impressive experience. I've never been overly optimistic about voice commerce, but I think this could be a gamechanger. I asked whether Amazon felt their grocery offering was differentiated enough, especially given that competitors have raised their game in recent years. Do shoppers really understand the Amazon value proposition? The answer: price, selection, and convenience is Amazon's USP. I'd argue that in grocery it's difficult to achieve all three, but Amazon believes that it's well positioned to deliver on this. 'Over the past 20 years, grocery shopping has actually gotten more complicated,' said Meredith Bunche, Director, Amazon Grocery. 'Grocers offer so much choice today, and that has created a larger mental load for people who just want to get their groceries.' In fact, throughout the day, there was a strong emphasis on Amazon's ability to reduce the cognitive load for shoppers, busy families in particular. That's certainly a sweet spot for Amazon and perhaps one of the incentives to start consolidating grocery and non-food orders in same-day fulfilment centres. 'Customers may not realize they can buy a tomato on Amazon for same-day delivery,' said Sarah Mathew, Vice President, Global Delivery Experience. Perishables is an important category as it drives repeat purchasing, but Amazon's real strength is in everyday essentials. Think diapers, potato chips, pet food, toothpaste. This category grew twice as fast of the rest of the business in Q1, now representing 1 in 3 units sold in the US. Even though Prime isn't just about delivery perks these days, it's important that Amazon continues to improve on speed. Out of the 26 countries where Prime is available today, Jamil Ghani, Worldwide Vice President of Amazon Prime, mentioned Japan as an example of a fast delivery market, where most of Amazon's selection is available for one-day or same-day delivery, with everyday essentials among the most speed sensitive. Jamil Ghani, Worldwide Vice President of Amazon Prime Sarah Mathew noted how, contrary to popular belief, same-day delivery can be incredibly cost-effective. And it certainly powers that flywheel. 'Every time we get faster, we see customers come back more often,' she said. As with any subscription, retention is critical for Amazon Prime. Ghani noted how over 70,000 members have been with Prime since its initial launch in 2005. That is phenomenal loyalty and reminds me of a quote from Jeff Bezos: 'Our goal with Amazon Prime, make no mistake, is to make sure that if you are not a Prime member, you are being irresponsible.' This is why Amazon continues to invest in new benefits, particularly those with frequent usage like food delivery apps Grubhub in the US and Deliveroo in the UK. Ghani noted that there is a 'huge increase' in retention for those members who use a second Prime benefit. It's also why they've raised the annual fee just three times over the past two decades. In fact, when adjusted for inflation, the fee has only increased marginally ($131 versus the actual $139). Ghani doesn't like to call Prime a loyalty programme, as he told me on my Retail Disrupted podcast. He believes Amazon aspires for much more than a transactional relationship; in fact, Prime has become a utility for many households. 'You pay a little more to get a whole lot more,' Ghani said. One of things he is most excited about is live sports. 'It punches above its weight in terms of differentiation and longevity. Those members are shopping, not just coming to watch the game and moving on.' Ghani also noted how Prime is not a breakage model. 'The more a member uses Prime, the happier we are. We don't want to be a gym where we sign people up in January and everyone stops going in February.' And, finally, he confirmed that Prime is not a loss leader. High velocity events like Prime Day drive customer acquisition. Yes, there is churn but even those customers – the ones who trial Prime but don't go on to become members - are valuable. They are much more likely to continue shopping with Amazon, having had that experience. Amazon may not be invincible, but it certainly remains one of the most innovative, customer-centric businesses in the world. As Daniel Rausch put it, 'We know how to disrupt ourselves before someone else can.'

Can Rivian Realistically Return to Growth in 2025?
Rivian's sales have slowed over the past year. The automaker's first major marketing campaign could boost demand. Rivian's R2 launch will be crucial to the company's potential success. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › When many investors turned to find the next Tesla, which is easier said than done, some turned to the young electric vehicle (EV) maker Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN). The company had proven capable of manufacturing high-quality vehicles, impressed critics and consumers alike, and inked a massive deal for delivery vans (EDVs) with Amazon -- life was good. Exiting 2023 you could argue Rivian had more momentum than any EV maker out there, but that has since dissipated and left investors wondering if the automaker can return to growth in 2025. The harsh truth is that the automotive industry is extremely competitive, and it takes an automaker with a full lineup to be truly successful. That hampers Rivian's ability to post extreme growth as the company only offers the R1T, R1S, and EDVs. But what's worse is that Rivian's only offerings are aging, and demand for them is waning -- it's been a noticeable trend. So the question facing investors is: Can the automaker return to growth in 2025 before the highly anticipated R2 launch in 2026? Investors in the know understand that Rivian has a small consumer base, but that it's a highly passionate base as well. There are Rivian adventure groups all across social media with consumers planning trips among other things. Rivian is attempting to tap into this passion with its first major marketing push, which the company could certainly use to help stoke demand for its vehicles. "This campaign is about celebrating the people who define what Rivian truly is," said Vice President of Marketing Denise Cherry on Rivian's blog. "Our vehicles are made to empower exploration and adventure, but it's the stories our owners create that give them real soul. For our first 360 brand campaign, we wanted to make sure our owners were the spotlight." Rivian has largely relied on word of mouth and organic growth to spread its brand awareness, but with demand waning over the past year, this marks the right time for the company to try to drive interest and demand for its R1 vehicles. Then it'll be time for the R1 vehicles to hand the baton to the R2 in 2026, which starts at roughly $45,000, or about half the price of Rivian's R1 vehicles. With 155,000 production units annually the R2 will be able to nearly double production of the R1S and R1T. If demand is there, expect deliveries to take off and accelerate through 2026. Investors also can't forget Rivian's big-time move to swap initial production of the R2 from its Georgia plant, which is under construction, to its Illinois plant thanks to an expansion of the factory. It's a move that not only fills production capacity at its original plant, but that saved the company roughly $2.25 billion. The harsh truth is that Rivian is unlikely to return to growth in 2025, unless its marketing campaign works miracles to drive immense demand. The automaker is essentially all-in on its R2, which boasts a much lower-cost bill of materials and improved tech, and will rely on the R2, R3, and R3X to take the company into its next growth stage. The near-term environment for EVs is pessimistic, especially with the current administration pulling support for the EV industry, and Rivian lacks any visible catalysts for the stock in 2025. But investors would be wise to take the long-term approach with Rivian. The company just achieved two consecutive quarters of gross profit and if it executes the production ramp-up of the R2 in 2026, it will be a much better year for investors. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $373,325!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $38,475!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $649,102!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join , and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.*Stock Advisor returns as of June 9, 2025 John Mackey, former CEO of Whole Foods Market, an Amazon subsidiary, is a member of The Motley Fool's board of directors.
