Top Deals

If you’re curious about Amazon Dash buttons, there’s never been a better time to stick them around your house. As part of a Prime Day countdown promotion, Prime members can purchase all the buttons they want for just $1 each, down from the usual $5. Plus, you’ll still get a $5 credit the first time you use it, meaning Amazon’s literally paying you to buy household essentials.

Amazon’s Second Annual Prime Day Is Tomorrow: Here’s Everything You Need To Know

$175 is a fair amount of cash for a single floorstanding speaker, even one that has dual subwoofers built right in, but $175 is the best deal Amazon’s ever listed on the Klipsch R-26F by over $100, and it’s only half its usual price, meaning you can buy a pair for the price of one.

If you have any long-neglected home maintenance and upkeep tasks to check off your to-do list, Amazon’s offering a flat $40 cash back on any service priced $75 or more through Amazon Home Services as part of the Prime Day festivities.

Note: This deal is available on select services right now. Starting at midnight on Prime Day, it will be available for all services.

Available services will vary depending on your location, but they can include lawn maintenance, cleaning, home improvement, computer help, and more. In fact, Shane recently used Amazon to install a TV wall mount.

While you can’t control these Schlage deadbolts with your smartphone, the ability to unlock your front door with a passcode is perfect for house sitters or overnight guests, or for just unlocking the door while you’re carrying groceries.

$69 is the best price Amazon’s ever listed, and you can choose from several different finishes to match your decor. Just note that that is a Gold Box deal, so don’t get locked out of these savings.

The world is full of fitness trackers that can count your steps and estimate calories, but today only, we’ve found a deal on a wearable device that can also help you improve your posture.

The Lumo Lift is a tiny clip that you attach to your clothing like a Fitbit One, but in addition to counting your steps, distance, and calories burned, it’ll also start vibrating whenever you slouch. Assuming you heed its warnings and start sitting or standing up straight, this has the potential to meaningfully improve your life in a way that counting steps might not.

Today only, Prime members can snap one up for just $50, which is $30 less than usual, and a match for the best price we’ve ever seen.

Update: Just kidding, don’t buy this! Amazon just announced that the 55" model will be marked down to $550 tomorrow for Prime Day.

Your next TV really should have HDR support, and this 2016 Samsung 4K fits the bill for $590.

That’s still a little expensive (though not too extravagant for a 50" set), but it gets you a great upscaling engine, local dimming, smart apps, Samsung Smart View, and yes, HDR. Today’s price is the best we’ve ever seen, and about $60 less than Amazon’s current price (which is itself Amazon’s all-time low).

$175 is a fair amount of cash for a single floorstanding speaker, even one that has dual subwoofers built right in, but $175 is the best deal Amazon’s ever listed on the Klipsch R-26F by over $100, and it’s only half its usual price, meaning you can buy a pair for the price of one.

At $180, the FLIR ONE thermal imager is undoubtedly a luxury. But still, it’s predator vision for your phone! It also normally sells for $250, and today’s extended Lightning deal price is the best Amazon’s ever listed.

French press is your favorite way to make coffee, and it’ll be an even more aesthetically pleasing process with this 100% stainless steel press for just $24.

We’ve seen less expensive french presses before, but if you prefer this model’s shiny and simple design, $24 is a fine price.

The Logitech G502 was your choice for best gaming mouse (though you don’t need to be a gamer to appreciate its benefits), and the upgraded Proteus Spectrum model (which includes fully adjustable backlighting) is on sale for an all-time low $60 today.

The marquee spec here is the DPI range of 200-12,000, adjustable on the fly. There are also five easily movable and removable weights, and 11 customizable buttons, along with the classic Logitech dual-mode scroll wheel. Mechanical microswitches and a braided cable are also nice touches.

Ready to get swole? Today only, Amazon’s offering big discounts on performance nutrition products from the likes of BSN, EAS, Clif, and more, for Prime members only.

Inside, you’ll find dozens of powders, shakes, bars, and more in a variety of flavors and formulas. Just note that the big red price listed is not the deal price in most cases. Look a little below that for the Prime price to see what you’ll actually pay.

Amazon’s virtual shelves are awash in $20 Bluetooth earbuds, but if you’re willing to pay a bit more for superior sound quality, Jaybird’s Wirecutter-recommended X2 sport earbuds have never been cheaper. Just note that this deal is only available today, and only for Prime members.

If wall-mounting your TV has been on your to-do list, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal on a mount. This model holds TVs up to 55", can extend up to 15" away from the wall, and can swivel and articulate in any direction, all for just $21.

These $6 deals from Andake can support your neck, your back, and your senses while sleeping on a plane. If you have any long trips on the horizon, these are no-brainers.

Few activities will give you as much self-satisfaction making some fuckin’ pasta from scratch, and this discounted roller makes it (relatively) easy to spin out both thin spaghetti and wide fettucini noodles. Plus, your friends will see it sitting out on your counter and think you’re some kind of culinary savant.

We love shining a spotlight on good mini flashlight deals, and at $6 for a two-pack, you could scatter these all around your home. They’re even zoomable, so you can focus or widen the beam depending on the situation.

Update: Sold out, but here’s a larger and brighter version of the flashlight for $6.

If you’ve got the space for it, this feature-packed NordicTrack treadmill is marked down to $449 on Amazon today as part of a Gold Box deal. That’s the best price ever listed, and a great deal for any treadmill that inclines up to 10%, and includes 20 built-in workouts, a space-saving fold-up design, and a lifetime frame warranty, and a 25 year motor warranty.

LOFT wants to play a game, to solve “mystery” if you will, with their Mystery Flash Sale. Lucky for you, you don’t need to sign up for emails to get any discount; that’s what we’re here for. Use the code LUCKY50 to get 50% off your entire regular-priced purchase.

Anker, purveyor of your favorite battery packs, charging cables, Bluetooth speakers, earbuds, and more, just released a deluge of promo codes and discounts on dozens of products in preparation for Prime Day.

There are too many deals to list on this page, but head over to our dedicated post for all of the links and promo codes.

$10 is a great price for any 32GB microSD card, but it’s basically unheard of for an 80MB/s model from a reputable manufacturer like Samsung.

Sugru is right up there with binder clips and the Raspberry Pi in Lifehacker’s pantheon of must-have gear, and you can stock up today with 8-packs from Amazon for just $18 each.

We’ve seen plenty of deals on “premium” Google Cardboard-compatible VR headsets, but this is one of the only ones we’ve seen that includes a magnetic button on the side, which means you won’t have to pair an external Bluetooth remote to navigate within VR apps. Seriously, if you haven’t played with Google Cardboard yet, you’ll have so much fun.

If you still enjoy the feel of an old-fashioned paper magazine, Amazon’s selling 6-month subscriptions to dozens of popular titles today, including Vanity Fair, Wired, Popular Science, and a lot more. Just note that this is a Gold Box deal, meaning it’s only available today.
