Top Deals

If you have any lamps or appliances you wish you could control from afar, Belkin’s popular WeMo Switches are marked down to all-time low prices in today’s Amazon Gold Box.

All you have to do is plug one of these in between a wall outlet and the device of your choice, and you’ll be able to turn it on or off from your smartphone or Amazon Echo, create automatic schedules, and even tie it to IFTTT recipes. For example, you could program your lights to come on when you pull into the driveway, or turn off when your Nest thermostat detects that you’re not home.

You actually have three devices to choose from today: The standard WeMo Switch, the Insight Switch which also monitors your energy usage, and the Light Switch, which you actually wire into your home’s electrical system. Just note that all of these prices are only available today, or until sold out.

Everyone and their mother has one of those YETI-style stainless steel tumblers now, but this 10 oz. lowball glass is great for sipping drinks around your house. This would be especially great for boozy beverages that you want to serve cold, but don’t want to water down with melting ice. $13 is also the best price Amazon’s ever offered, so cheers to that.

You don’t see a ton of products on Amazon with nearly 5,000 reviews, but this Waste King garbage disposal manages a 4.6 star average from over 4,900 customers, and it’s marked down to an all-time low $87 today as part of a Gold Box Deal. That’s actually $1 lower than a short-lived Prime Day discount. Just be sure to grab one before they’re all gobbled up.

The Ninja Professional BL660 recently took home the title of your favorite affordable blender, and Amazon’s marked it down to $95 today, an all-time low.

In case you missed the Co-Op, the BL660 includes an 1100 watt motor, a 72 ounce pitcher, and a pair of single-serve smoothie cups so you don’t have to clean the big pitcher every time you feel like making yourself a smoothie to go.

Nature Valley bars are my weekday breakfast of choice, and Amazon’s taking an extra 25% off a variety of different flavors today, including three 24-bar variety value packs for just $9, the best price we’ve ever seen. Like all Amazon coupons, you won’t see the discount until checkout.

Pro tip: Break up the crunchy bars inside the wrapper before you open it, then pull out the pieces to avoid getting crumbs everywhere. It’s the only way.

We’re all supposed to drink more water, but that’s a whole lot easier when there’s carbonation involved, so for a limited time you can save 20% on Perrier and San Pellegrino packs on Amazon. Just add your favorite option to your cart, and you’ll see the discount at checkout.

While supplies last (which, if history is any indication, won’t be long), you can get a 17 cup and 2.5 cup RubberMaid FreshWorks container for just $15. That’s an all-time low, and $2 less our previous mention. I might just buy myself a second set.

These recently became one of the fastest products to ever reach our Bestseller pantheon, and we’ve heard nothing but good things from our readers.

Newsflash: 8TB external drives exist, and you can get one for $200. This model from Seagate even includes a pair of USB charging ports on the front so you can power up your mobile devices at your desk.

If there are any items on your wishlist that you wouldn’t mind buying slightly used, Amazon’s taking an extra 15% off nearly 20,000 select products from the Amazon Warehouse.

You can use this link to search for what you’re looking for, and you’ll see the 15% discount automatically at checkout. The deal is nominally for back-to-school and electronic products, but if you poke around, you’ll find a massive variety of eligible items.

Wi-Fi range extenders can’t work miracles, but if there’s one spot in your house with spotty coverage, they can be a much cheaper solution than buying a new router. So at $20, why not give this one a try? Just be sure to clip the $5 coupon on the page.

If your new phone supports Quick Charge 3.0 or USB-C, it’s time to upgrade your car charger to get the most juice out of your commute.

UE’s new Roll Bluetooth speaker is the company’s smallest offering, and reviews indicate that it lives up to its UE Boom predecessors. If you’ve been waiting for a discount to pick one up, you can grab a refurb for just $40 right now, the best price we’ve ever seen.

This 1TB Xbox One S Madden bundle costs $20 more than usual, but it comes with a copy of Fallout 4, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, and Rainbow Six: Siege. That’s not a bad start for your game collection.

Want to see firsthand why people love Eneloop rechargeable batteries so much? This 4-pack of AAs includes a charger, and today’s $15 price tag on Amazon matches its all-time low.

Most string lights with “globe” style bulbs still use power-hungry incandescent filaments that will probably burn out in a year. This 20', 30-bulb strand on the other hand uses LEDs, and can run completely off the grid via an included solar panel.

Want wireless streaming and handsfree calling in your older car? This $16 dongle receives the Bluetooth signal from your phone, and transmits it to the FM radio station of your choice. It even includes two USB charging ports for your phone.

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.

If you have any home improvement projects on the horizon, and you expect to be spending some time and money at Lowe’s, there’s no reason not to pick up this discounted gift card.

Update: Sold out on eBay, but Amazon has it for $2 more.

My car battery doesn’t even last three years, so I can’t begin to imagine how this Logitech mouse can survive for that long. As long as you don’t mind buying a refurb, this is the best price we’ve ever seen on the Marathon Mouse.

You know those cinematic time lapses where the camera slowly pans as the action speeds along? Now you can make them yourself for just $10. The Veho Muvi X-Lapse works with just about any compact camera, action cam, or smartphone, and can mount on top of a tripod for more control over your shot. Here’s a sample video to give you an idea of what you can pull off with this thing.

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 the Philips Airfryer is healthy, but Philips claims that your french fries will have 70% less fat than those cooked in a deep fryer, and an entire batch will cook with just a tablespoon of oil. If you don’t mind buying a refurb, $85 is the best price we’ve ever seen, and less than half the price of buying it new.

If you don’t immediately think jeans when you think Levi’s, I think it’s time to come out of that 100 year old rock you’ve been living under. And, with 30% off your entire purchase when you use the code SAVE30, you’ll be able to come out of that rock wearing really great pants.

Continuing its tireless pursuit of perfecting every conceivable commodity gadget in your home, Anker recently released a new line of essential oil diffusers and humidifiers with built-in accent lights, and they’re offering all-time low prices across the board today.
