We've seen plenty of great Memorial Day deals over the past few weeks, but one discounted tablet deserves some particular attention. As part of their sitewide Memorial Day Weekend sale, Best Buy is slashing a whopping $220 off the 512GB Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Plus, a deal that sends the price of the tablet crashing down to $979.99.

This deal is for the massive 512GB version of the tablet, but if you need less storage, you can also grab the 256GB variety and get a hefty $80 off your purchase. No matter which size you choose, Best Buy is sweetening the deal by throwing in three months of YouTube Premium for 100% free, an additional value of $35.97. Just keep in mind that the deal is set to expire on Memorial Day (May 29th), so don't wait too long to make your move.
