Amazon just rolled out a few new back-to-school device sales, including $15 off the Amazon Tap, and $20 off the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite.

And in case you missed it earlier, a the Amazon Fire HD 6 is still $30 off.

Obviously, your new Kindle won’t get much use if you don’t load it with books, and several top-sellers are on sale for $2-$5 each today.

Range extenders can’t work miracles, but if there’s one corner of your home that struggles to get a good Wi-Fi connection, this $30 gadget might be all you need.

If you bought a bulky case for your iPhone 6/6s and regretted it, Jackery will sell you an ultra-thin alternative for just $1 today. You even get to pick your color.

When you hear the phrase “Bluetooth speaker,” you probably think of a small brick that can fill a room with decent-sounding audio. This is not that kind of speaker.

The Ion Block Rocker though has enough oomph to provide tunes for an entire block party or barbecue, and its 75-hour battery means you don’t even have to worry about plugging it in. As long as you don’t mind buying a refurb, $100 is a fantastic price for a speaker this loud.

A whole bunch of different water bottles and travel mugs are on sale in today’s Amazon Gold Box from Ello and Pogo, including those fancy glass and ceramic ones that everyone seems to be carrying these days. Just note that like all Gold Box deals, these prices are only available today, so grab one before they’re all emptied out.

If you’re ready to take the plunge into LED lighting, this 6-pack of higly-rated TCP soft white (2700K) bulbs is down to just $18 on Amazon right now, one of the best per-bulb prices we’ve ever seen. They aren’t dimmable, so you won’t want to put them in certain fixtures, but it’s a great bulk pack for filling out ceiling lights and lamps throughout your house.

Once you’ve got them, check to see if your local utility company offers rebates for purchasing LEDs. If so, it’s possible these could pay for themselves even quicker than they would otherwise.

I’m not sure if a minimal, stainless steel cylinder is the most practical design for a rolling pin, but I think it’s definitely the prettiest.

Fried foods are delicious. Fried foods will kill you. These are the laws of our cruel existence, and generally-speaking, there’s no avoiding them. I’m not going to tell you that cooking foods with this $60 air fryer is healthy, but Chefman claims that it uses 80% less oil than conventional deep frying, resulting in less trans fat in your favorite meals.

Packing cubes can make organizing clothes and toiletries for your next trip a little less hellish, and this highly-rated set of four from AmazonBasics is only $20 today. That’s about $5 less than usual, and an all-time low. I actually own a set of these, and I absolutely love them.

Anker’s kevlar-wrapped PowerLine cables have been an immediate hit with our readers, and you can upgrade your entire microUSB cable collection today with this $11 5-pack.

You know the guy that writes The Oatmeal webcomics? He made a card game, and it became the most-backed project in Kickstarter history, as measured by number of individual backers. If you weren’t one of them though, Amazon’s taking $4 off the standard and NSFW editions today, the ~~first discount they’ve ever offered~~. Update: It was on sale during Prime Day, but this is the first discount available to all Amazon shoppers.

There are surely sleeker looking options in the cheap Bluetooth headphone space, but $10 is just about as good a price as you’ll ever see. Promo code EARBUDS5 should work on all three colors.

Trump says America’s in the toilet, but you can buy three stainless steel mixing bowls, measuring spoons, measuring cups, and a whisk all for just $13, so things can’t be that bad.

Want wireless streaming and handsfree calling in your older car? This $21 dongle receives the Bluetooth signal from your phone (or music files from flash drives and microSD cards), and transmits it to the FM radio station of your choice.

We’ve seen several deals on Bluetooth car kits in the past, but most require that your car include an AUX jack, whereas this only needs a working FM radio.

You might not need to use a Dremel all that often, but it’s one of those things everyone should keep in their tool box, if only for sanding wood and carving jack-o-lanterns. And today, Amazon’s discounting the Dremel 2290 3-tool craft kit to an all-time low $79, matching a Gold Box deal from early July.

Of course, the kit comes with a standard 2-speed Dremel rotary tool, but what makes this collection special are the included extras: A pen-style rotary engraver, and a butane soldering torch. That makes this a great deal for everyone from home improvement projects to arts & crafts. Just note that like all Gold Box deals, this price is only available today, or until sold out.

Before you head out on your next summer trip, be sure to pick up this popular inflatable travel pillow for just $7 with code OSDTP699.

Most of these things are basically c-shaped inner tubes, which is okay, but this model includes extra cushioning on the sides to help you nod off without straining your neck, even if you’re flying economy.

You probably looked at that image up there and laughed. But let me tell you, there’s nothing funny about using the bathroom in the middle of the night and having to turn on an overhead light to see where you’re going. Because as soon as you hit that switch, you know you’re not getting back to sleep for another hour.

GlowBowl fits on just about any toilet, is motion activated, and can even output seven different colors of light. Most importantly though, it won’t wreak havoc on your circadian rhythms. It normally sells for $20, and is worth every penny, but you can pick one up from Amazon right now for $15, matching a Prime Day deal.
