With apologies to sliced bread and the wheel, 3M’s Command line of hooks and adhesive strips is the greatest invention in the history of mankind, and you can stock up on all of your favorites in today’s Amazon Gold Box.

Inside, you’ll find Velcro-like picture hanging strips, adhesive poster strips, and tons of different hooks that you can stick on any wall. Even if you don’t have an immediate need for any of these, they come in handy a lot, so you might as well stock up while they’re cheap. [3M Command Sale]

Whether you’re already a Philips Hue devotee, or you’re looking to start your collection, this 2-pack of Wi-Fi connected color-changing light strips is marked down to $120 today at Best Buy, an all-time low. [Philips Friends of hue 120 Lumen, 12W LightStrip Luminaire Starter Kit, $120]

It didn’t take long for Magnetic smartphone vent mounts to join our bestsellers club, and it’s easy to see why. They’re essentially invisible when your phone is attached, and there’s just something cool about slapping your phone onto your dashboard, and watching it stick in place. Even if you already own one, for $5, this would make a great stocking stuffer. [Mpow Grip Magic Air Vent Magnetic Car Mount, $5 with code MZBDXEOL]

ADATA’s Premiere line of SSDs isn’t nearly as fast or as well-known as Samsung’s 850 series, but any SSD will be a huge upgrade over a spinning hard drive, and this 480GB model is down to an absurdly low $120 on Newegg, complete with a three year warranty.

Personally, I keep my 30,000+ file photo library on an external hard drive (and also backed up to the cloud, fear not), but lately I’ve been frustrated by how loud and slow it can be, so I just ordered this SSD to replace it (with the help of an external enclosure, of course). [ADATA Premiere 480GB SSD, $120]

Whether you’re a professional athlete, or just someone who slept funny, aches and injuries happen, so you’ll want to be prepared with this Ace reusable cold compress.

Unlike most ice packs, this one remains flexible when frozen so it can conform to your skin, and is even covered in soft-touch fabric so you don’t have to wrap it with a towel. For a limited time, you can get yours for $8 after a Subscribe & Save discount plus a 15% bonus coupon. I’m not sure why you’d need to subscribe to these, since they’re reusable, but you can always cancel after your first order ships. [Ace Reusable Cold Compress, $8 with Subscribe & Save and 15% coupon]

The iPhone 6 and 6s don’t have the amazing battery life of their plus-sized brethren, but this $21 battery case can more than make up the difference. To put it simply, this is the best deal we’ve ever seen on a current-generation iPhone battery case, and you shouldn’t hesitate to buy it. [1byone iPhone 6/6s 3100mAh Rainbow Battery Charger Case, $21 with code PAW7JLYD]

The LG Watch Urbane is absolutely one of the best looking Android Wear watches on the market, and you can get your own for $215 today on eBay. That’s $135 less than its original selling price, and a match for the best deal we’ve seen. If you’re on the fence, be sure to check out Gizmodo’s impressions. [LG Watch Urbane, $215]

I find your lack of ice disturbing, but if you’re having friends over to rewatch Star Wars movies before The Force Awakens hits theaters, these Death Star ice spheres will be a hit. [2 Pack uHome Death Star Silicone Sphere Ice Ball Tray, $8 with code PPD8ZS4S]

Yeah, it’s not a Nest, but this Honeywell Wi-Fi thermostat has great reviews, smartphone control, and all the smart home features you care about. [Honeywell Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat, $165]

There are home theaters, and then there are home theaters. This 1080p Optoma projector is marked down to $750 today on Amazon, which is an all-time low price, and $250 off its usual going rate. [Optoma HD37 1080p 3D DLP Home Theater Projector, $749]

Need help getting started? Lifehacker’s got you covered.

Unlike metal pans, silicone baking mats don’t require cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking, and this textured model allows grease to and fat to drain away for leaner, healthier meats. It’s not the right tool for every job, but for $8, it’s not a bad idea to keep one in your kitchen. [Xpassion Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat, $8 with code Y74XLEUU]

Are you serious, Clark? One of the greatest Christmas movies of all time is getting a remastered 25th anniversary edition, complete with a digital copy. [Preorder National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation 25th Anniversary, $14]

The fantastic This War of Mine is down to $7 (from $15) on iOS and Android today.

There’s no need to wait for Black Friday; the PS4 console bundle deals have already started. Today, you get your choice of two base bundles, plus extra games, accessories, and/or movies to sweeten the pot.

PlayStation 4 500GB Console - Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection Bundle with Assassin’s Creed Syndicate and Final Fantasy Type-0 ($350) | Amazon

PlayStation 4 1TB Call of Duty: Black Ops III Limited Edition Bundle with Fallout 4, PowerA DualShock Charging Stand, and Two Movies ($430) | Best Buy

We already mentioned Target’s Buy 2, Get 1 Free video game deal earlier this week, but now that Fallout 4 and Rise of the Tomb Raider (not to mention Black Ops III and Assassin’s Creed Syndicate) are included in the selection, it bears repeating. [Buy Two Video Games, Get One Free]

Babysitting the grill or oven while dinner cooks is nobody’s idea of a good time, but this wireless temperature probe will alert you the moment your food has reached the desired temperature.

That means no more dried out, overcooked meat, and more importantly, no awkwardly taking back your guests’ plates to finish cooking that pink chicken. This $42 set comes with two probes and a 300’ range, which should cover just about any cooking scenario you might encounter. Promo code THANKSG9 will save you $18 on the set today, just in time for Thanksgiving. [Ivation Long Range Wireless Thermometer, $42 with code THANKSG9]

Nothing says “generic gift” quite like a barbecue set, and that’s okay! Chances are, you’ll need a handful of generally-agreeable and non-controversial gifts for random cousins or office secret santas this holiday season anyway, so go ahead and knock them off your list for $22. [VonShef 18 Piece Stainless Steel BBQ Tool Set With Carry Case, $22 with code 6BHFYDBI]

Anker’s ubiquitous Astro series of USB battery packs are some of the most popular items we’ve ever posted, but today we have a deal on the smallest member of their newer, more powerful PowerCore line. [Anker PowerCore 10400 Portable Charger, $16 with code XCWT4JFT]
