If you want to get some better sound out of your computer, this Logitech speaker system is only $25, and even includes a subwoofer for deeper bass. Obviously, there are more expensive systems that will sound better, but if you’re currently using your laptop’s built-in speakers, this will be a massive improvement. [Logitech Multimedia 2.1 Stereo Speakers with Subwoofer, $25]

Wi-Fi repeaters won’t work miracles, but if areas of your house just can’t get a solid signal, or if you need an ethernet port without running a cable drop, this $25 gadget could be just what you need.

In addition to boosting your wireless range (within reason), it also includes an ethernet jack to plug in a device without Wi-Fi, and even AC passthrough so you don’t lose out on precious outlet space. Plus, today’s $25 price tag is an all-time low, and roughly $15 less than usual. [TP-LINK N300 Universal Wireless Range Extender, $25]

GoPro’s lilliputian Hero4 Session only came out a few weeks ago, but we’re already starting to see deals.

This isn’t a discount unfortunately, but if you buy the camera for its full $400 price tag from Best Buy today, you’ll get a GoPro Smart Wi-Fi remote for just $20 extra. That remote normally sells for $80, and gives you full control of all of your GoPro’s features and settings from up to 600 feet away. [GoPro HERO4 Session HD Waterproof Action Camera and Wi-Fi Remote, $420]

If you ever go camping, or even on long hikes in the wilderness, it might be worth picking up this discounted paracord bracelet on Amazon.

69 gets you a bracelet made a over 18’ of 550 pound paracord, and a buckle that also double as a flint fire starter and eye knife, Hopefully you never have to use this, but it’s not a bad idea to keep it handy before you head out into the wild. [Gonex Paracord Bracelet with Fire Starter and Eye Knife, $6]

$10 gets you your choice of Lightning cable today, either an extra-long 6’ model, or a 2.3’ retractable option that won’t get tangled up in your bag. Just be sure to note the promo codes below:

2.3’ Retractable Lightning Cable ($10) | Amazon | Promo code 5WINRG7H

6’ Lightning Cable ($10) | Amazon | Promo code 25L4O55V

If your computer’s running low on storage, or if you just need a good backup drive, $70 is about as cheap as we ever see a 2TB external. [WD Elements 2TB External Drive, $70]

If you ever buy clothes at Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack, or HauteLook, you might as well get some free Amazon credit for your trouble.

Update: The BTSNORD10 deal, which gave you $20 in Amazon credit with the purchase of a $100 gift card, has expired. As of now, the NORDRACK5 promo code ($5 credit with $25 gift card purchase) is still available.

While supplies last, if you buy a $100 Nordstrom gift card from Amazon, and use promo code BTSNORD10 at checkout, you’ll get a $20 Amazon promo credit tossed in for free. If that’s more than you want to spend, or if you’re greedy and just want even more Amazon credit, this $25 Nordstrom Rack gift card comes with its own $5 credit if you use code NORDRACK5.

You can only claim each credit once, so you won’t be able to, say, but two of the $25 Nordstrom Rack gift cards to get $10 in credit, but you could order the two gift cards separately for $125, and get $25 worth of credit in total.

It’s also worth noting that while one of these is branded as a Nordstrom gift card, and the other is for Nordstrom Rack, they are both completely interchangeable and will work at either store, along with HauteLook.

GoPro’s official eBay store is currently blowing out refurbs of last generation’s GoPro Hero3+ Silver for just $180. As long as you don’t mind that it’s “old,” that’s a really fantastic action cam for the price.

Let’s compare specs to the $130 GoPro Hero (Hero3+ Silver bolded).

  • Up to 1080p/60 or 720p/120 video vs. 1080p/30 and 720p/60
  • 10 MP stills vs. 5 MP
  • 25 MB/s bitrate vs. 15 MB/s
  • Wi-Fi vs. No Wi-Fi

So if GoPro’s cheapest action cam appeals to you, $50 extra today gets you a much better overall package. [Refurb GoPro Hero3+ Silver, $180]

Just because your house or apartment doesn’t have a doorbell doesn’t mean you’ll have to rely on knocking on the door like a caveman. This $15 kit has everything you need to install a doorbell, no wiring required. You can even choose from 52 different chimes and four different volume levels! [Etekcity Wireless Doorbell Kit with 1000ft Operating Range, $15]

This mini surge protector includes twp AC outlets and two USB charging ports, making it ideal for your travel bag, or for behind your night stand. [Cable Matters Travel Surge Protector, $13]

I fully concede that this looks ridiculous, but a head-mounted magnifying glass with detachable headlamp can really come in handy if you’re tinkering with small electronics around the house. You might not use it often, but it’s not a bad thing to keep around. [Elecrainbow Handsfree Head Mount Magnifier with Detachable 2 LED Headlamp, $20 with code ACTQG77S]

Today on eBay, you can grab an iPad Air 2 128GB for less than the MSRP of the 64GB model. Deals like this are fairly common at this point, but it’s still a great price if you’ve been meaning to pick one up. [iPad Air 2 128GB, $590]

Anyone who thinks vacuuming is the best chore is dead wrong. If you agree, delegate it to this high-end Roomba 790 for $400, an all-time low price, and $100-$200 off its usual price range. .

The iRobot Roomba 790 features dual HEPA filters to trap dust and allergens, and is designed with pet hair in mind. Plus, its included wireless command center lets you give it commands from anywhere in the house. Most importantly though, pets and babies can ride on top, resulting in hilarious gifs. [iRobot Roomba 790 For Pets and Animals, $400]

Amazon just kicked off a huge digital games sale with up to 75% off over 200 titles from SEGA. That includes everything from Sonic the Hedgehog to Alien: Isolation. [SEGA PC Games are Up to 75% Off at Amazon]

If you’ve been waiting for an excuse to start or expand your Philips’ color-shifting Hue lighting collection, Amazon’s offering a great deal on spare bulbs today. All you have to do is pick any two Hue bulbs from four available models, and your total price at checkout will get marked down to $100. [Philips Hue Bulb Sale]

Note: These bulbs won’t work without a Philips Hue bridge, which you can get in various Hue starter kits.

It’s no secret that Amazon’s Fire Phone has been a flop. But considering that it started out at $650 unlocked, today’s deal on the handset might just be enough to move a few more units.

Today only, you can get the Fire Phone unlocked for just $169, which is within $10 of an all-time low. Admittedly, that’s still a decent chunk of change, but consider what else it comes with:

So really, you’d be paying about a $50 premium for the phone itself. Even if it’s not your daily driver, you could do a lot worse than to keep it around as a backup if your main phone ever breaks. Or, you could use it as some kind of Amazon-centric iPod Touch. Or pop in a prepaid T-Mobile or AT&T SIM card to test out their signal in your area, if you’re interested in switching. What I’m saying is, there are plenty of ways you could put an extra phone to use, and at this price, it might be worth a look. [Amazon Fire Phone, $169]

KMASHI’s cheap battery packs are some of the most popular items we’ve ever posted, and their well-reviewed 15,000mAh model is down to just $14 today, an all-time low. This beefy battery is perfect for long camping trips, flights, and power outages, or for sharing with others during a long day away from an outlet. [KMASHI 15000mAh External Battery Pack, $14 with code Q29OJRQH]

Victorinox’s Fibrox 8” chef’s knife is one of your favorite chef’s knives period, and by far the best value in the industry. It’s also the knife I’ve used almost every day for over three years. Amazon has it for $34 right now, which isn’t an all-time low price, but it’s the best deal we’ve seen in quite some time. [Victorinox Fibrox 8” Chef’s Knife, $34]
