Mophie 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad
Deal price: $92; street price: $140
Read our review of the best apple wireless charging stations.
A 3-in-1 charging stand can keep you from getting all tangled up in chargers galore. The Mophie 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad organizes and powers up an Apple phone, watch, and Airpods in one place. It’s stylish, with smooth lines and a matte finish, so it can easily blend into your everyday decor. The Mophie lets you put your Apple Watch in landscape orientation, allowing you to utilize Nightstand Mode for easy alarm snoozing. This is the lowest price we’ve seen, but don’t forget to use the code ZE342820 to get this for $91.
Stay on track with a fitness tracker
Fitbit Inspire 2 Fitness Tracker
Deal price: $57; street price: $85
Read our review of the best fitness trackers.
If you’re like Fergie up in the gym working on your fitness, you may want to track your progress with the Fitbit Inspire 2 Fitness Tracker. This accessory can track anything from aerobic activity to random afternoon runs. Its sleek look works in any setting, whether you have it wrapped around your wrist or clipped to your waist. It also features a lengthy battery life, and it can even track your sleep. Our runner-up pick is on sale for $57, so run fast to scoop up this deal, but not too fast—save that for the Fitbit.
You can see clearly now with this web cam
Logitech HD Webcam C615
Deal price: $45; street price: $60 (use promo code LTECHSAVE25)
Read our review of the best webcams.
Like Ella and Louis’s love, Zoom meetings are here to stay as more workplaces adopt flexible remote work schedules. Instead of logging on and looking all grainy, you can upgrade your camera on a budget with the Logitech HD Webcam C615. This 1080p webcam had better resolution than any other camera we tested under $50. The street price for this budget pick has risen over time, and this is the first significant drop we’ve seen for it in about two years.
Take a look, it’s an ebook
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (10th generation, 8 GB) Ebook Reader
Deal price: $80; street price: $115
Read our review of the best ebook reader.
Books take up space, be it in a bag or on a bookshelf, sometimes limiting how many and how often you can likely read. An ebook can help you (metaphorically at least) turn a page with your reading. The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (10th generation, 8 GB) Ebook Reader is our favorite ebook reader with its great display, bright screen, Bluetooth, and waterproof technology. Not only does Kindle offer a great catalogue of books you can purchase, but they also have partnerships that allow you to check out books from your local library. The best prices on the Paperwhite tend to be on Prime day, and $80 is in line with the lows we’ve seen before.
An dry erase easel for your desk
Quartet Glass Dry-Erase Desktop Easel
Deal price: $14; street price: $18
Read our review of the best gifts for people who work from home.
During the course of a workday, many of us have to jot down quick notes that we’ll refer to only once—things like conference-call numbers or takeout orders. Down to $14 (add it to your cart to see the deal price), this is a solid deal on a dry-erase clipboard that you can use to remember important info without leaving a trail of crumpled up Post-Its in your wake.
A rare deal on our top water flosser pick
Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser
Deal price: $40; street price: $70
Read our review of the best water flossers.
This discount is a rare drop that matches the best price we’ve seen on our top water flosser pick, the Waterpik Aquarius. Compared with the other models we tested, this durable flosser made our mouths feel the cleanest and offered the most flexibility in adjusting the water stream. As this is the first deal we’ve seen on it since Black Friday, now is a great time to save if you’re considering ditching the traditional string-flossing method.
A soothing wake-up light alarm clock
Philips SmartSleep Wake-Up Light HF3520
Deal price: $80; street price: $100
Read our review of the best sunrise alarm clock.
If you wake confused and panicked at the sound of your alarm clock beeping in the dark, you may find mornings more pleasant with a wake-up light. The Philips Wake-Up Light HF3250 starts with a soothing red-tinted light that gradually grows into a bright white light, helping you feel less groggy when you wake up. This bedside table topper has a good range of five alarm sounds, a backup alarm, a backup power source (so your alarm will still function in case of a power outage), and a decent radio. Do your circadian rhythm a favor and snag this wake-up light at the lowest price we’ve seen.
A great sous vide machine for beginners
Anova Precision Cooker Nano Sous Vide Machine
Deal price: $99; street price: $129
Read our review of the best sous vide machine and gear.
The Anova Precision Cooker Nano, our top sous vide machine pick, is the best option for most home cooks because of its accuracy, relatively small size, and ability to work with a huge range of containers. The quiet, user-friendly Anova also has an intuitive touchscreen interface and beeps to alert you when the water comes to temperature.
A stylish humidifier for dry spaces
Levoit LV600HH Hybrid Ultrasonic Humidifier
Deal price: $72; street price: $90
Read our review of the best humidifier.
The Levoit LV600HH is currently available for $72 in cart. Recommended for super-dry spaces, this beautifully designed ultrasonic humidifier is rated for rooms as large as 400 square feet. However, it must sit on a table or other elevated surface to be totally effective, so take that into account when considering it for your space. We just saw this pick for about $10 less in black, but this deal is still a decent and rare discount on the white model.
A quick-capturing trail camera
Wildgame Innovations Mirage 18 Trail Camera
Deal price: $71; street price: $85
Read our review of the best trail camera under $100.
For budding naturalists, our top pick for the best trail camera under $100 is now down to $71 from a typical price of $85. The Wildgame Innovations Mirage 18 packs lots of pixels into a small camera. It also has a lightning-fast trigger speed, allowing you to capture crisp images of wildlife during the day and at night. Although this deal is not quite the lowest we’ve ever seen for the Mirage 18, it does match the best pricing we’ve seen for this trail camera within the past year.
A good deal on a praiseworthy pair of headphones
Soundcore by Anker Life Q30 Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Deal price: $60; street price: $80
Read our review of the best noise-cancelling headphones.
Although we ultimately consigned the Q30 to our list of notable competitors, this is still a praiseworthy pair of noise-cancelling headphones—especially at this new low price in black. The set offers sound quality and noise cancellation comparable to what we’ve gotten from our budget pick, as well as an included app that provides EQ adjustment, a toggle for the three levels of ANC, and adjustable soundscapes for relaxation and focus. The buttons are a little small for larger fingers, but if you don’t mind that and you like the added features, this deal brings the Q30 only $10 shy of our current budget pick when you clip the on-page coupon.
One of our favorite electric pressure cookers
Instant Pot Duo Plus 6-Quart Pressure Cooker
Deal price: $55; street price: $100
Read our review of the best electric pressure cooker.
If you have a busy schedule, an electric pressure cooker is a great way to get dinner on the table with minimal effort. This is a nice drop on the Instant Pot Duo Plus 6-Quart, a variant of our top pressure cooker pick. In the competition section of our guide to the best electric pressure cooker, we note that this model offers the same cooking capacity and performance as our top pick, along with a few more bells and whistles. The extra features weren’t enough for the Duo Plus to dethrone our top pick, but now that this model is down to less than $60, it’s a solid choice.
A rare deal on a stylish floor lamp
Lepower Wood Tripod Floor Lamp
Deal price: $57; street price: $70
Read our review of the best floor lamps under $300.
If you have the floor space and like the style, this attractive tripod floor lamp would be a chic addition to your living space. As our tripod pick for best floor lamp under $300, the Lepower easily fills a large space with light while being particularly sturdy against wayward bumps and nudges. This price drop marks the first deal on this rarely discounted floor lamp that we’ve ever found good enough to share.
A good starter ukulele kit
Donner DUC-1 Ukulele
Deal price: $36; street price: $66
Read our review of the best ukulele for beginners.
Our runner-up ukulele pick is down to $36. We already think it’s a bargain at a street price of $65 or so, but it never hurts to save even more money if you’re looking to pick up a new hobby. The concert-size Donner DUC-1 plays well and sounds good—plus, it comes with a case, strap, and tuner. This is a decent drop on the DUC-1 even though it’s not quite the lowest price we’ve ever seen for this ukulele.
A no-touch, Bluetooth-enabled thermometer
ThermoWorks Wand Blue No Touch Bluetooth Forehead Thermometer
Deal price: $44; street price: $124
Read our review of the best thermometers for kids and adults.
If you’ve been considering the ThermoWorks Wand as your first-choice contactless thermometer, you might be interested in the added Bluetooth functionality of the company’s Wand Blue No Touch Bluetooth Forehead Thermometer. It’s the same thermometer but with the addition of smart capabilities, including wireless syncing with an app called ThermoWorks Health (available for iOS and Android). The Wand Blue is perfectly functional even if you don’t use the smart features. It’s down to a new low of $44 shipped as part of an inventory-reduction special.
A high-quality gaming mouse
Razer Basilisk V2 Wired Gaming Mouse
Deal price: $38; street price: $75
Read our review of the best gaming mouse.
At $38, this is a new low price for our runner-up gaming mouse pick, the Razer Basilisk V2. If you want a high-quality and comfortable gaming mouse and don’t mind that Razer’s Synapse 3 software doesn’t support macOS, this is a nice opportunity to save.
Sturdy, reusable plastic bags
Stasher Reusable Silicone Bag Multi-Pack (4-Pack Small, Clear)
Deal price: $39; street price: $48
Read our review of the best reusable produce bags, beeswax wraps, and other ways to reduce plastic waste.
Minimize your environmental footprint and reduce waste with our reusable silicone bags pick. This multi-pack of Stasher bags includes four different-size bags that can hold anything from snacks to sandwiches to last night’s leftovers. Durable and easy to clean, these bags are dishwasher safe. Plus, they store flat, so they won’t take up any extra space in your kitchen drawers. This deal is the second best price we’ve seen for this particular multi-pack.
A solid deal on a former Wi-Fi router pick
TP-Link Archer C4000 Wi-Fi Router (Refurbished)
Deal price: $80; street price: $100
Read our review of the best Wi-Fi router.
A variant of our former top Wi-Fi router pick, the TP-Link Archer C4000 is identical to the A20 aside from some different firmware features. The A20 performed well in our latest round of testing, but it lacked the long-range coverage of our newer picks and ended up ranking in the middle of the pack overall. That said, the C4000, down to $80 in refurbished condition, is still a good choice if you have a lot of devices and want to take advantage of its tri-band radio.
A modern duvet cover for college students
Brooklinen Classic Duvet Cover (Twin)
Deal price: $93; street price: $109
Read our review of the college dorm essentials.
Brooklinen Classic Core Sheet Set (Twin XL)
Deal price: $93; street price: $109
Read our review of our favorite summer sheets.
This is the first deal we’ve seen on the twin-size Brooklinen Classic Duvet Cover, which we highlight in our duvet cover and college dorm essentials guides. With the price down to $93, this is a nice chance to save on a stylish and modern duvet cover for a college student. If you want to complete the set, our more affordable summer sheet pick, the Brooklinen Classic Core Sheet Set, is also available for $93 in the twin XL size.
A computer speaker system that sounds great
Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX Computer Speakers
Deal price: $70; street price: $110
Read our review of the best computer speakers.
If you watch or play just about everything at your desk, a computer speaker system that includes a subwoofer is a worthy investment. Clean and simply designed, the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX set produces clear and crisp dialogue, it and has the overall best sound quality of all the 2.1 systems we tested. Though the connection options are limited, these computer speakers offer a simple and compact way to enhance your setup. This deal matches the lowest price we’ve seen for these Klipsch speakers.
