Top Deals

Anker’s original SoundBuds still hold the title of your favorite affordable Bluetooth headphones, but if you can’t get them to sit correctly in your ears, the new SoundBuds NB10s were designed just for you.

The highlight feature here is the NB10's wraparound design; once these things are in your ears, they’re not going anywhere until you take them out. They’re also IPX5 water-resistant (an improvement from the original’s IPX4 rating), pack in 12mm drivers, and include Anker’s hassle-free 18 month warranty.

For a limited time, promo code AUDIOANK will take $4 off your pair, and while that’s not a massive discount, it is the best price we’ve seen on these to date.

Update: They’re back up to their regular price now. Hope you got one!

Fitbit is finally updating their popular Flex and Charge fitness bands, and Amazon’s currently offering surprisingly large preorder discounts on both.

The newly-announced Fitbit Flex 2 improves on its predecessor with water resistance, swim tracking, colored LEDs, and a smaller design. And for my money, it’s the most attractive fitness tracker I’ve ever seen. Preorders are up now, and while it’s listed at a $100 MSRP, Amazon’s currently offering it up for $81.

Meanwhile, the Charge 2 adds connected GPS (meaning your phone has to be nearby), VO2 max level measuring, and even call & text alerts from your phone. It’ll retail for $150 when it’s released, but Amazon’s already marked preorders down to $115.

If you hurry over to Amazon, you can score a 16 ounce Contigo Autoseal West Loop travel mug in white for $12, the best price we’ve seen.

If that sells out, or if you don’t like the color, several other colors are available directly from Amazon for just $1 more. This is our readers’ favorite travel mug by a wide margin, and can keep a drink hot for four hours, or cold for up to 12.

Vantrue’s compact N1 dash cam is only $60 today with promo code BH2F9URO, but it doesn’t skimp on features. You get night vision, automatic loop recording, a g-sensor to detect crashes, and even a parking mode that uses motion detectors to film anyone or anything that gets too close to your vehicle while it’s stationary.

One of the better things about H&M having an online store is looking through all the sale items and not having to pick things off the dirty floors of the store. Like this really nice long-sleeved henley, made from organic cotton as part of their Conscious line and on sale for $9, today only. It’s worth buying in all five colors.

In case you’ve been living in a cave and haven’t played it yet, The Witcher 3 is one of the best games you can buy for the current generation of consoles, and the newly-released Complete Edition is available for just $40 for Prime members. That’s only $7-$9 more than the standard edition, but includes all of excellent DLC packs.

Note: Discount shown at checkout

Samsung’s KU6300 series includes 4K resolution, HDR processing, and speedy smart apps, and the 40" model is marked down to an all-time low $418 on BuyDig’s eBay storefront today. I bought the 55" model on Prime Day, and I absolutely love it.

Zika’s officially here, and Repel 100 was your pick for the best bug spray to protect yourself. If you haven’t picked up a bottle yet, and you have something else you’ve been meaning to buy, Amazon’s marked it down to an all-time low $6 as an add-on item.

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 this compact battery-operated model is marked down to $69 today on Amazon. There are cheaper corded models out there, but this thing is small enough for one-handed use, and it even comes with a docking station to keep the battery topped off.

Just note that today’s price is part of Amazon’s Gold Box, meaning it’s only available today, or until sold out.

If you still have any TVs without a Chromecast attached, Google’s official eBay store will sell you one at a $5 discount today (also available on Chromecast Audio). Plus, Google will throw in 90 days of unlimited Google Play music, plus two months of Spotify Premium (new users only) for free.

If you still haven’t upgraded your morning routine up a life-changing wake-up light, could an all-time low price convince you to try it out?

The Philips HF3505 is currently marked down to $60, the best price we’ve ever seen by $5. While there are higher end models with color-shifting light and multiple wake-up sounds, this one does include a radio, and its yellow light will still get your body ready for the morning. I have the similar HF3500, and I don’t know how I’d function without it.

Belkin’s mini 3-outlet surge protector is a perfect for bedsides and backpacks, and if you somehow don’t already own one, it’s a no-brainer at $14.

Today’s Gold Box deal matches a short-lived Prime Day offer, and is the best price Amazon’s ever offered. Even if you don’t use this thing for traveling, They’re unobtrusive and convenient enough that it makes sense to scatter them around your house.

If you only have a small yard to tend, this corded electric edger can also plug into a wheeled base to transform into a bona fide lawnmower. It’ll still be small by lawnmower standards, but it’ll take up far less room in your garage, and make a much smaller dent in your wallet.

Need an extension cord to go with it?

You might not have an immediate need for a pack of multicolored Sharpies, but they’re great to keep stocked in your home office, and Amazon’s currently selling two 24 packs is only $10 today. They’ve hit this price a few times in the past, and they always sell out quickly.

You need to buy laundry detergent anyway, so you might as well stock up while there’s a sale. For a limited time, Lowe’s is taking 30% off six different 92-100oz bottles, bringing them down to just $9. You’ll need to spend $49 or more to get free shipping, but you can pick up any order for free at your local store.

Update: Sold out

A good label maker is something everyone should own, and the top-selling DYMO LabelManager 160 is back in stock for just $10 today, matching an all-time low.

If you remember the old label makers that literally pressed the letters into a piece of tape, this is a bit more advanced than what you’re picturing. The Dymo LabelManager 160 can print in eight fonts at six sizes, along with clipart and special characters, and you can even preview the entire label on its LCD screen before you print.

We’ve seen this deal a couple times in the last few weeks, but it always sells out quickly, so act fast.

If you want to get real work done on your phone or tablet on the go, this foldable Bluetooth keyboard can fold up to fit into just about any bag, and even some pockets. Plus, it even doubles as a stand to prop up your mobile device of choice.

Corsair’s Strafe series is your favorite line of mechanical keyboards, and the Cherry MX Red is marked down to an all-time low $75 on Amazon right now, if you can wait out a backorder.

If you aren’t familiar, Cherry MX Red switches are smooth and easy to press, and are great for both gaming and regular work.

This includes the ever-popular men’s Desert Boots and Wallabees and some really nice women’s heeled booties and even some fantastic sandals.

Lowepro’s Passport Sling was one of your four favorite camera bags (and the most affordable in the bunch), and Amazon’s selling the newest model for $31 today, an all-time low. Just note that you’ll have to wait out a backorder.

This Cuisinart Classic Round was only a few votes shy of taking home the title of your favorite waffle iron, and you can pick one up from Amazon today for just $24.

I probably make fresh waffles in my waffle iron every month 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.

The Pebble Time is, in many ways, the best smart watch on the market, and you can try one out for just $90 today. Unlike many sub-$100 Pebble deals we’ve seen recently, this one is brand new, not a refurb.

Amazon’s Fire TV is one of the only streaming boxes that can push out 4K content, and you can save $15 on yours today.

If you’re in the market for a new external hard drive, $70 is about as cheap as we ever see 2TB models, and WD’s My Passport Ultra is one of the best.

If you want to dip your toes into the world of electric toothbrushes, Philips’ entry level Sonicare Essence line is an amazing value at $20 (after clipping the $5 coupon). I’ve been using this brush for years, and I still love it.

We saw this deal last month, and it sold out very quickly, so I wouldn’t hesitate to lock in your order if you’re interested.

Have you been drooling over the new Xbox One S? You can get the 2TB model for its normal $400 today, but with an extra controller and a year of Xbox Live Gold tossed in for free. Enjoy that 4k, everyone.

If you’re going to buy your textbooks on Amazon anyway this year, be sure to use promo code TEXT15 at checkout to save $15 on any $100 order (shipped and sold by Amazon.com). That’s a drop in the bucket for a semester’s worth of books, but it’s still $15 more to spend on Natty Ice or ramen or (insert favorite stereotype here).
