Today only, Amazon’s offering several popular Kindle books for just $2-$5 each, including The Martian, Grey, and Gone Girl. Be sure to head over to Amazon though to see the full list.

The Pebble Time and Pebble Time Round are some of the best smart watches you can buy right now, and Amazon’s offering them for just $104-$144, today only as part of a Gold Box Deal. Those are the best prices we’ve seen on non-refurbs.

We love USB battery packs, and we love Bluetooth speakers, so you can only imagine how we feel about the JBL Charge 2, which combines both into a single product. Today only, you can pick one up for $80 in red, matching the best price we’ve ever seen.

Amazon’s Fire HD 6 is a penny-pinching tablet buyer’s dream, and Amazon’s offering it for just $70 today, or $30 less than usual. While Amazon does offer a cheaper 7" Fire tablet for $50, the Fire HD has a sharper screen, a faster processor, and slightly better battery life.

The Presto FlipSide was one of your five favorite waffle irons, and you can pick one up from Amazon today for an all-time low $24.

I probably make fresh waffles in my waffle iron every other weekend or so, but in between, I’ve used it to make hash browns, pressed sandwiches, and even churros. Lifehacker has a ton of other suggestions too, including mozzarella sticks, 90-second cookies, pre-packaged cinnamon rolls, and even crispy bacon. So you see, calling this thing a waffle iron is practically a misnomer.

MonsterRAX turns your garage ceiling into versatile storage, and the 4' x 8' kit is marked down to $150 as part of a Gold Box deal today, an all-time low by $40.

You could open your own pub with this 10-pack of pint glasses for just $13.

You don’t need a yard, or even any gardening skills to grow your own food at home; you just need Miracle-Gro’s Aerogarden line. These fully-integrated, soil-free indoor gardens can grow herbs, vegetables, and salad greens up to five times faster than regular soil, and you can choose from two great deals today.

The smaller Sprout Plus LED model is marked down to $70, and can grow up to three pods at once, while the larger Harvest can accommodate six pods for just $30 more. Both come with a starter pack of pods to get started, but Amazon has a ton of extra options on sale to fit your tastes.

Assuming it’s legal in your state, a good radar/laser detector can pay for itself over time, and this highly-rated Escort Passport S55 is on sale for just $109 on BuyDig’s eBay storefront, or $60 less than Amazon.

You can’t control it from your smartphone like a Philips Hue Lightstrip, but this TaoTronics LED strip light can glow eight different colors, and even includes several modes that will make the lights flash and change to match whatever song is playing in the room. Plus, unlike a Hue system, almost anyone can afford this thing at $25. Each strip is 16.4' long, but they can be cut to length.

Velcro cable ties can transform the rat king of cables behind your desk or home theater into something more manageable, and you can get 100 of them today on Amazon for just $6. Now, Amazon frequently lists these at $5, but as add-on items that only ship as part of a $25 order. Today, you’ll pay $1 more, but you can get free Prime shipping.

Earlier this week, we shared a deal on a front pocket RFID-blocking wallet for $8, but if that one wasn’t your style, here’s another option for the same price.

For a few years now, Antec’s USB-powered HDTV bias light has been one of our most reliably popular deals whenever it went on sale. The problem: It only gets a significant discount once every few months. Luckily, a copycat has emerged to fill in the gap.

Just like the Antec model, this Vansky LED light strips plug directly into your TV’s USB port for power, and sticks to the back of the set via built-in adhesive. Once you turn your TV on, the light strip will cast a soft glow on the wall behind it, which can reduce eyestrain when watching in the dark, and improve your TV’s perceived black levels. We’ve posted a few deals on this model, but $15 is the best price we’ve seen.

In case you missed out last week, you can once again snag an extra year of PlayStation Plus for $40. I know it seems like we’re seeing this deal every week right now, but these gift card deals tend to be feast or famine; it wouldn’t surprise me a bit if the deal disappeared for three months.

They won’t track your steps or show you notifications, but Timex’s simple Weekender Watches are still some of the most popular watches ever listed. They’re extremely versatile and come in a variety of colors, and today several models are marked down to the $30 range, plus an additional 20% off with code WEEKENDER. Just note that the code will only work on watches shipped and sold by Amazon.com directly; no third party sellers.
