Chances are, you still have a few older media players or speaker systems lying around that don't have Bluetooth built-in. Instead of junking them, upgrade them with these cheap adapters.

Note that the $15 adapter is a receiver (for, say, an old iHome), and the $30 one is a transmitter (for an old MP3 player, for example).

That's no moon...it's an ice cube. You might have seen these big, slow-melting ice balls at your favorite fancy cocktail bar, and now you can make them at home, except with a disintegrating laser. [Kotobukiya Star Wars: Death Star Silicone Ice Mold, $6]

If you like the idea of ice ball molds, but prefer your drinks without any sci-fi references, we recommend the Tovolo Sphere Ice Ball Molds. They're not discounted today, but they're a great value at $11 for a set of two.

At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, Mr. Clean Magic Erasers really are...magical. If you need some for your spring cleaning, Amazon will sell you 4 today for just $2. Note that they'reheavily backordered right now, and have a high sellout risk. [Mr. Clean Magic Eraser 4-Pack, $2 after $1 coupon]

Update: Sold out, but check out the generic alternative below.

If they do sell out, or you just want more than four, you can also get generic versions for really cheap. [30 Melamine Sponges, $13]

By now, you're probably aware that Audio-Technica's ATH-M50x headphones are ridiculously popular, but even on sale, they still cost well over $100.

If you haven't given universal remotes much thought in recent years, you'd be forgiven for not realizing that this is a Logitech Harmony. After all, where's the screen?

The Logitech Harmony Home Control connects your phone (in addition to the included remote) to everything in your home theater, as well as smart home appliances like Philips Hue lights and the Nest thermostat. Today's $117 price is well below its normal $150, and within a few bucks of an all-time low. [Logitech Harmony Home Control, $117]
