I missed yesterday’s post, which means today we are operating under the ancient newsletter principle of “pretend nothing happened and keep moving.”

Fortunately, the deals were kind enough to give us a very specific adult checklist: clothes that look presentable, a backpack that says “organized,” kitchen gear, tiny collectible cars, and a Southwest fare in case you need to leave town after buying all of it. A balanced return to the deal mines.

1) Nordstrom Rack Men’s Clearance Deals - Up to 89% Off

Nordstrom Rack has men’s clearance deals for up to 89% off, with free shipping on orders of $89 or more.

This is one of those amazing but mildly intimidating sales with more than 1,500 items to browse. That’s a lot of scrolling, a lot of filtering, and a lot of quietly judging anyone who paid twice as much for the Ted Baker trousers that are, truthfully, timeless. Good things come to those who wait. Better things come to those willing to dig through clearance. Happy hunting.

2) Samsonite Classic Business 2.0 Everyday Backpack - $30

You can get the Samsonite Classic Business 2.0 Everyday Backpack for $30, with free shipping on orders of $49 or more.

If you haven’t come to terms with the fact that a business backpack is actually an adult essential, I’m here to change your mind. It does not automatically make you look like a college student or a 10-year-old headed to school.

It holds your laptop, charger, snacks, receipts you refuse to throw away, and whatever emotional support water bottle is getting you through the day.

Maybe the water bottle is less important since many of us were raised on minimal hydration breaks at long-lined school water fountains, but that’s neither here nor there.

Practicality wins. Thanks for attending my TED Talk.

3) Best of Kitchen Sale at Woot - Up to 79% Off

Woot has its Best of Kitchen Sale with deals for up to 79% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

Before you start grumbling about “single-use kitchen gadgets” and refuse to click on principle, let me set the record straight: this sale is mostly practical stuff. Air fryers, knives, wine bottle openers, cookware, and other everyday kitchen items that do, in fact, have jobs.

What it does not include are prices Woot used to call “useless,” but now very tactfully calls “reference” pricing. We do low-key miss the useless tag, but we respect the growth.

4) Fairfield Collectibles Diecast Clearance Sale - Up to 46% Off

Fairfield Collectibles has diecast models on clearance for up to 46% off. Shipping varies by order.

This is for the tiny car people, and I say that with respect. Every hobby sounds a little specific from the outside until you remember the rest of us also own things that would be hard to justify under oath. Diecast collectors simply chose miniature vehicles, which frankly seems more dignified than whatever is happening in most junk drawers.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Fairfield-Collectibles-Diecast-Clearance-Sale-Up-to-46-off-shipping-varies/21920555.html

5) Southwest Airlines One-Way Fares - From $49

Southwest has one-way fares from $49 for select routes.

There’s still time to pull together a summer vacation, especially when the flight itself is not the thing robbing you blind. With fares like this, maybe the hotel gets upgraded. Maybe dinner gets a little nicer. Maybe you become the kind of person who says, “We found a great little place,” and means it.

Yes, you may have to sit next to someone who brings Five Guys on the plane and makes you wonder who chooses the most fragrant possible food for a recycled-air tube. This may or may not be based on personal experience. But eventually, you land, check into the nicer hotel, and no one has to know what the journey cost you emotionally.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Southwest-Airlines-One-Way-Fares-for-From-49/21920603.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical little comeback lineup for clearance browsing, organized intentions, kitchen ambition, collectible cars, and affordable escape routes.

Woot is turning 22, and it seems the celebration strategy is “let’s make half the internet go on sale.”

Honestly, respect. If I were throwing myself a birthday party, I would also want people browsing discounted electronics, shoes, kitchen appliances, and whatever else happens to be lurking in the Woot deal mines. Not sure if the DealNews company culture rubbed off on me or if was secretly always this way… I digress.

So yes, today’s lineup is Woot-heavy. But it’s their birthday week, and when a retailer decides to celebrate by discounting half the store, we simply observe the holiday.

1) Best of Woot Sale - Up to 80% Off

Woot’s Best of Woot Sale takes up to 80% off select electronics, home goods, fitness gear, and more. Shipping is free for Prime members.

“Best of Woot” is a bold sale name because Woot is already a place where the categories feel like someone shook the internet into a box. But that is also the appeal. It’s a treasure hunt where you do not always find the treasure you were looking for, but somehow the bug zapper for your porch that you did not know you needed until today still counts as treasure.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Best-of-Woot-Sale-Up-to-80-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21915242.html

2) Shark & Ninja Favorites Sale at Woot - From $40

Woot has Shark and Ninja favorites on sale from $40, with free shipping for Prime members. The sale includes vacuums, fans, air fryers, blenders, and more.

Shark and Ninja products have a way of making you feel like your home is one appliance away from functioning properly. A better vacuum, a better blender, a fan for the room that refuses to behave, an air fryer that tells your oven, “Thanks, but we’ll take it from here.” This is household ambition with a power cord.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Shark-Ninja-Favorites-Sale-at-Woot-for-From-40-free-shipping-w-Prime/21915220.html

3) Best Buy Black Friday in July iPad Deals - Up to 40% Off

Best Buy has iPad deals for up to 40% off during its Black Friday in July sale, with free shipping.

Last I checked, the DealNews tagline is still “Where EVERYDAY is Black Friday,” and we do try to live up to that bold claim. Sale after sale. Deal after deal. Brick by brick, we build.

Other retailers are more selective with their Black Friday energy, and that’s fine. We’re not knocking it. But when Best Buy, a retailer we already love on actual Black Friday, decides to run a Black Friday-style sale in the middle of July, we sit up a little straighter and start clicking. We advise you do the same.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Best-Buy-Black-Friday-in-July-iPad-Deals-Up-to-40-off-free-shipping/21915370.html

4) HOKA & On Shoes Sale at Woot - Up to 38% Off + Extra 22% Off

Woot has HOKA and On shoes on sale for up to 38% off, plus an extra 22% off applied automatically. Shipping is free for Prime members.

Guess who’s back, back again? HOKA’s back, tell your arches shins. Your favorite shoes keep going on sale, people keep needing arch support, and Woot added an extra 22% off for its birthday, so here we are again. Comfortable. Supported. Slightly repetitive, but in a responsible way.

👉 View the deal: http://dealnews.com/Hoka-On-Shoes-Sale-at-Woot-Up-to-38-off-extra-22-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21915215.html

5) Crumbl Cookies Thin Cookie - Free

Crumbl is offering a free Thin Cookie for a limited time.

After all the Woot birthday energy, it feels only fair to end with actual dessert. A free cookie is not complicated. It does not require comparing specs, checking shoe sizes, or deciding whether your household needs another appliance. It is simply a cookie, and sometimes the strongest deal argument is “free and edible.”

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Crumbl-Cookies-Thin-Cookie-Free/21915376.html

That’s today’s five.

A very Woot-forward birthday lineup with appliances, iPads, supportive shoes, and one free cookie for balance.

Today’s we’ve got tools for the projects you may or may not finish, clearance clothes for the cart you may or may not justify, open-box electronics for the brave, adidas markdowns for pretending we’re still being active in this heat, and a $5 fly trap because apparently even flies need boundaries.

Let’s dig in!

1) Ryobi Days Tool Deals at Home Depot - Up to 57% Off + Free Tools

Home Depot has Ryobi Days tool deals for up to 57% off, with select purchases including free tools. Shipping is free on many items.

You don’t even have to be particularly handy to get excited about Ryobi Days. There are fans in the sale, which is perfect for those of us who are less “actively completing the project” and more “supervising from a safe, shaded distance.” For the people using this sale as intended, you can never have too many batteries, so this is the perfect time to stock up.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Ryobi-Days-Tool-Deals-at-Home-Depot-Up-to-57-off-Free-Tools-free-shipping/21907171.html

2) Nordstrom Rack New Clearance Markdowns - Up to 85% Off

Nordstrom Rack has new clearance markdowns for up to 85% off, with free shipping on orders of $89 or more.

This is a highly browseable sale that can easily devolve from “I’ll just check it out” to a cart with five or more items in it. But with 8,000+ items on sale, walking away with only five is basically restraint. Bonus points if those items get you to the $89 free shipping threshold, at which point you’ve pretty much won. Girl math is undefeated as ever.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Nordstrom-Rack-New-Clearance-Markdowns-Up-to-85-off-free-shipping-w-89/21907170.html

3) Woot Open-Box Sale - Up to 65% Off

Woot has open-box deals for up to 65% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

For those looking for a more random assortment, but slightly less daunting than the 8,000+ items mentioned above, this sale is for you. The catch is that open-box deals tend to get picked through quickly, so browse soon unless you enjoy the very specific heartbreak of realizing the thing you wanted is already in someone else’s cart.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-Open-Box-Sale-Up-to-65-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21907104.html

4) adidas New Markdowns - Up to 40% Off + Extra 15% Off

adidas has new markdowns for up to 40% off, plus an extra 15% off with promo code DN15. Shipping is free for adiClub members, which is free to join.

adidas markdowns are useful because they cover several versions of yourself at once: the person who works out, the person who thinks about working out, the person who needs comfortable shoes for errands, and the person who just wants socks that have not entered the laundry witness protection program. All valid. No judgment.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/adidas-New-Markdowns-Up-to-40-off-extra-15-off-free-shipping/21907088.html

5) Rescue Outdoor Disposable Hanging Fly Trap - $5

You can get this Rescue outdoor disposable hanging fly trap for $5, with free shipping on orders of $35 or more.

This one stood out to me personally after watching my husband hunt down at least ten flies last night that apparently decided they could move into our house rent-free. Sitting outside has become its own jungle adventure, too. The flies have got to be stopped. If they can organize against us, it’s time we do the same.

Just maybe hang the trap a bit away from where you actually plan to relax. I have been told the smell can become a little... informative.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Rescue-Outdoor-Disposable-Hanging-Fly-Trap-for-5-free-shipping-w-35/21907027.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical Friday lineup for tools, clearance browsing, open-box confidence, athletic-wear optimism, and the beginning of our organized resistance against tiny winged intruders.

Have a great weekend!

It’s Fresh Spinach Day, which would normally be a wholesome little calendar note, especially after a week that already gave us Mac & Cheese Day and National Hot Dog Day. A nutrient-filled reset felt earned.

Unfortunately, the current food-safety headlines are giving children across the country the strongest anti-vegetable argument they’ve had in years. I am pro-greens. I am also pro-letting spinach sit this one out until we know our raw veggies aren’t rising up against us.

So today’s lineup is leaning into a different kind of nourishment: Apple student savings, Woot’s digital junk drawer of random deals, a rowing machine for indoor ambition, a grill thermometer, and a cutting board that appears to be trying to solve kitchen cross-contamination through sheer stainless-steel confidence.

1) Apple Back to School Sale - Free Gift Card With Select Purchases

Apple is offering a free gift card between $100 and $150 with select Mac and iPad purchases through its Back to School Sale, with free shipping.

So the joke may fall flat when I say I tried to replace “spinach” with “Apple,” but you can’t hate a girl for trying.

What I can say is that this sale makes up for my questionable joke construction, because the deal itself is no joke. You get education pricing, plus a gift card of up to $150 that can go toward something you suddenly “need,” like AirPods Pro or a new Apple Watch.

Is it a closed-loop system? Yes. But you’re buying Apple, the most closed ecosystem out there. At this point, we all know what we signed up for.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Apple-Back-to-School-Sale-Free-gift-card-w-select-purchases-free-shipping/21905435.html

2) Woot Really Random Deals Clearance - Up to 80% Off

Woot has its Really Random Deals Clearance for up to 80% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

“Really Random Deals” is a refreshingly honest sale name. No theme. No lifestyle promise. Just a digital junk drawer with discounts. We have to throw some respect on that level of transparency. Sometimes you do not need a curated shopping journey. I said the other day to my coworkers that DealNews mastered the art of “just one more deal” browsing before we had a name for it. Woot! understood that assignment with this sale.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-Really-Random-Deals-Clearance-Up-to-80-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21905389.html

3) Pooboo Foldable Rowing Machine - $470

You can get the Pooboo foldable rowing machine for $470 at Best Buy, with free shipping.

A foldable rowing machine is for the person who wants a serious home workout but also wants the option to pretend their living room is not slowly becoming a gym. Rowing is efficient, low-impact, and humbling in a way that makes you question every life choice around minute six. As a rowing-adjacent household, I respect the machine. I fear the machine. Both can be true.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Pooboo-Foldable-Rowing-Machine-for-470-free-shipping/21843375.html

4) ThermoPro App-Connected Grill Thermometer - $28

You can get the ThermoPro universal digital app-connected grill thermometer for $28.

This is for anyone who has ever stood by a grill saying, “Yeah, that looks done,” with the confidence of a person making an educated guess based mostly on vibes. An app-connected thermometer feels like a small act of accountability. It lets science actually play a role on the grill before dinner becomes either suspiciously pink or tragically dry.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/products/Thermo-Pro/Thermo-Pro-Universal-Digital-Square-App-Connected-Grill-Thermometer/509023.html

5) Double-Sided Stainless Steel Cutting Board - $15

You can get this double-sided stainless steel cutting board for $15, with free shipping for Prime members.

A double-sided stainless steel cutting board feels very timely on Fresh Spinach Day, given the current national mood toward produce. One side for meats, one side for fruits and vegetables, and the whole thing has the energy of someone who labels leftovers and actually trusts their meal prep system. Couldn’t be me, but a girl can dream.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Double-Sided-Stainless-Steel-Cutting-Board-for-15-free-shipping-w-Prime/21905578.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical Thursday lineup for student savings, random clearance browsing, indoor fitness, safer grilling, and produce optimism under review.

Yesterday was National Mac & Cheese Day, and today is National Hot Dog Day, which means the calendar has officially entered its cookout era.

I respect it. We could all use a little less “major shopping event” and a little more “here is a fake holiday built around cheese and processed meats.” In July, of all months, it feels quite patriotic.

Today’s lineup follows that spirit: chili dogs, refurbished Kindle and Fire tablets, Omega watches, Woot tools and garden deals, and an Amazon clearance sale.

1) Wienerschnitzel Original Chili Dogs Deal - 4 for $4

Wienerschnitzel has original chili dogs for 4 for $4 today.

There are a lot of memes going around right now about foods that are not sending people on explosive parasitic bathroom journeys, and frankly, National Hot Dog Day did not ask to be part of the discourse. I’m not telling anyone to test their intestinal fortitude by personally consuming all four chili dogs, but compared to mystery produce, this does feel like a meal with a more transparent risk profile. So... choose your fighter? I guess?

👉 View the deal: http://dealnews.com/Wienerschnitzel-Original-Chili-Dogs-Deal-for-4-for-4/21903676.html

2) Refurb Amazon Kindle & Fire Tablets at Woot - Extra 10% Off

Woot has refurbished Amazon Kindle and Fire tablets for an extra 10% off, with deals starting from $18. Shipping is free for Prime members.

This doesn’t need much explaining, but to make it simple:

Kindle: for readers.
Fire tablets: for people who want a tablet but do not want to pay iPad prices or fully commit to the Apple ecosystem.
Refurbished: a perfectly functional repaired device at a fraction of the cost.

As a DealNews user, there’s a decent chance you fall into at least two of those categories. As a subscriber to this Substack, I fear you may be trending toward all three.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Refurb-Amazon-Kindle-Fire-Tablets-at-Woot-for-Extra-10-off-deals-from-18-free-shipping-w-Prime/21903603.html

3) Omega Watch Outlet Deals at eBay - Up to 30% Off

eBay has Omega watch outlet deals for up to 30% off, with free shipping.

A luxury watch sale is a very different shopping mood than “4 chili dogs for $4,” but this newsletter contains multitudes. Omega is for the person who wants something timeless, polished, and impressive without having to explain why their phone clock was not enough. It’s not a casual purchase, but neither is becoming “watch guy.” That journey has to start somewhere.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Omega-Watch-Outlet-Deals-at-eBay-Up-to-30-off-free-shipping/21903636.html

4) Woot Tools & Garden Liquidation Sale - Up to 67% Off

Woot has tools and garden deals for up to 67% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

Only yesterday, I posted about how the word “liquidation” feels when paired with the word “sale.” Apparently, you agreed. So here we are again, this time in the tools and garden department, because why limit our liquidation enthusiasm to one category? Consider this your second helping. You’re welcome.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-Tools-Garden-Liquidation-Sale-Up-to-67-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21903605.html

5) Amazon Clearance Sale - Buy 2+ Items, Get $10 Amazon Credit

Amazon has a clearance sale where buying two or more select items gets you a $10 Amazon credit. Shipping is free for Prime members.

I’ve tried to stay strong and avoid becoming another woman explaining purchases with “girl math,” but this is exactly the kind of sale where self-restraint leaves my body.

I mean:

I was already buying one thing.
I could probably use a second thing.
That $10 credit is going to get used eventually anyway.

Have I added $25 of goods to my cart to avoid $10 in shipping before? Yes. It was reasonable in a mathematically complicated way.

Am I going to spend an extra 30 minutes finding the perfect second item to go with the clearance sheets I was already planning to buy? Also yes.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-Clearance-Sale-for-Buy-2-items-get-10-Amazon-Credit-free-shipping-w-Prime/21903548.html

That’s today’s five.

A very reasonable Wednesday lineup for readers, tool people, watch people, clearance strategists, and anyone brave enough to observe National Hot Dog Day with four chili dogs.

It’s National Mac & Cheese Day, which should be one of the easiest fake holidays to celebrate.

There is technically a mac and cheese deal on the site today, but it’s lactose-free. And listen, I fully support the lactose-sensitive among us, but for a day this sacred, it felt a little too responsible.

So we’re taking the looser interpretation: computers, tools, Birkenstocks, LEGO, and Buffalo Wild Wings, where mac and cheese does appear on the menu if you would like to observe properly.

1) Computers Liquidation Sale at Woot - Up to 68% Off

Woot has a computers liquidation sale with deals for up to 68% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

“Liquidation” is one of those words that makes shoppers make a double-take. Is it urgent? Maybe. Is it slightly dramatic? Absolutely. Am I still going to click? Obviously.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Computers-Liquidation-Sale-at-Woot-Up-to-68-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21901912.html

2) Klein Tools at Lowe’s - Up to 40% Off

Lowe’s has Klein Tools on sale for up to 40% off, with free shipping available.

Good tools on sale are good tools on sale, even if your current skill level is “I watched a video and now I’m dangerous.” Dangerous to the problem? Dangerous to the appliance? Unclear. But that sounds like a question for future you, and future you will probably need more tools.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Klein-Tools-at-Lowes-Up-to-40-off-free-shipping/21901886.html

3) Birkenstock for the Family Flash Sale at Nordstrom Rack - Up to 61% Off

Nordstrom Rack has Birkenstocks for the family on sale for up to 61% off, with free shipping on orders of $89 or more.

Birkenstocks may have a reputation as the ultra-granola shoe of choice, but you do not have to own a compost bin or casually say “farmers market haul” to wear them. You can wear them to run errands, walk the dog, supervise the grill, browse the garden center like you have a landscaping vision, or stand in your kitchen wondering why you opened the fridge. They’re supportive, practical, and just polished enough to say, “Yes, these are intentional.” After all, isn’t fashion like 90% confidence?

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Birkenstock-for-the-Family-Flash-Sale-at-Nordstrom-Rack-Up-to-61-off-free-shipping-w-89/21902065.html

4) LEGO Sale - Up to 70% Off

Select LEGO sets are on sale for up to 70% off, with free shipping on orders of $35 or more.

LEGO sets for adults are trending, which makes perfect sense because sometimes you need a hobby that keeps your hands busy and your brain from opening 37 mental tabs at once. Is it technically a toy? Sure. Is it also tiny, structured therapy with instructions? Also yes.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/LEGO-Sale-Up-to-70-off-free-shipping-w-35/21902000.html

5) Buffalo Wild Wings 20 Bone-In Bundle Deal - $22

Buffalo Wild Wings has a 20 bone-in wings bundle deal for $22.

It is National Mac & Cheese Day, and while this is technically a wing deal, Buffalo Wild Wings does have mac and cheese on the menu. That counts. Probably. At the very least, it feels less sad than celebrating with lactose-free boxed mac, which I say with deep respect for both digestive boundaries and cheese-adjacent innovation.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Buffalo-Wild-Wings-20-Bone-In-Bundle-Deal-for-22/21901992.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical little Tuesday lineup for electronics anxiety, tool confidence, supportive footwear, tiny plastic bricks, and dinner that does not require turning on the oven.

Lately, all of our weather news sources have been discussing Super El Niño, because regular summer was not already doing enough.

I’m not a meteorologist, but I am someone who has walked across a parking lot in July and thought, “This feels personal.” So today’s lineup leans into preparedness, comfort, and staying inside whenever possible.

We’ve got AC and home environment deals, Yamaha outlet finds, socks because feet also deserve infrastructure, grocery deals, and gaming discounts for anyone planning to ride out the weather like a Victorian child sent indoors for vague atmospheric reasons.

1) Woot! ACs & Home Environment Sale - Up to 71% Off

Woot! has ACs and home environment deals for up to 71% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

With all the Super El Niño chatter floating around, this sale feels less like shopping and more like climate-themed nesting. Air conditioners, dehumidifiers, fans, air purifiers, the whole “what if my house could simply stop feeling like soup?” department. We’re probably past the preparation phase and firmly into the reactionary phase of AC ownership, but Woot! seems to understand the assignment by giving us the sales we need in the season we need them most. No, I am not throwing shade at all the coats currently on sale in July.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-ACs-Home-Environment-Sale-Up-to-71-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21900213.html

2) Yamaha Outlet Deals at eBay - Up to 40% Off

eBay has Yamaha outlet deals for up to 40% off, with free shipping.

Yamaha is one of those brands that covers enough categories to make you feel under-accomplished. Instruments, audio gear, motorcycles, boats, probably something that powers a small village. This sale is mostly for the audio people, but spiritually it belongs to anyone who hears “outlet deals” and immediately flashes back to stopping at Tanger on the way to the beach. Retail nostalgia, but from your couch.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Yamaha-Outlet-Deals-at-eBay-Up-to-40-off-free-shipping/21900223.html

3) adidas Men’s Socks - From $6.75

You can get adidas men’s socks from $6.75, with free shipping.

Unless you’ve had a priest bless your washer and dryer, we all know that eventually every pack of socks becomes a singles party. We don’t know where the missing ones go. We may have our theories. What we at DealNews do know is that when socks are on sale, you may as well replenish the ever-diminishing supply before your drawer becomes a collection of loose ends.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/adidas-Mens-Socks-for-from-6-75-free-shipping/21900231.html

4) Amazon Grocery Deals - Up to 50% Off

Amazon has grocery deals for up to 50% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

This is the stock-up portion of our Super El Niño-adjacent programming. Not in a bunker way. More in a “future me will appreciate having snacks, coffee, and something shelf-stable when I refuse to leave the house” way. Preparedness is just grocery shopping with better branding.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-Grocery-Deals-Up-to-50-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21900325.html

5) Woot Summer of Gaming Sale - Up to 85% Off

Woot’s Summer of Gaming Sale takes up to 85% off, with free shipping for Prime members.

If the weather is going to act a fool, staying inside with video games feels like a reasonable response. Some people hike. Some people garden. Some people survive July by entering a digital world where the sun cannot personally attack them through the windshield. Know thyself.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-Summer-of-Gaming-Sale-Up-to-85-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21900155.html

That’s today’s five.

Stay cool, stock the snacks, and respect the sacred summer tradition of pretending indoors is a lifestyle choice.

Today’s newsletter has a theme because it’s my dad’s birthday, and apparently this is what happens when a small company gives a millennial free rein on its socials.

In my defense, my dad has been using DealNews longer than I even knew it existed, so I feel like this is a fair use of the account.

His frequented categories on our site are Dell sales, travel deals, and Rockport-style comfort dress shoes. We got pretty close, which feels spiritually appropriate for gift-giving. Not exact. Thoughtful enough.

So today’s lineup is dad-coded in the best way.

1) Men’s “I’ll Be in My Office” Washed Baseball Cap - 1 Cent

You can get this men’s “I’ll Be in My Office” washed baseball cap for 1 cent, with free shipping for Prime members.

I don’t know who needs a hat that says “I’ll Be in My Office,” but I know exactly who this hat is for. It’s for the man whose “office” might be a garage, a recliner, a shed, a golf cart, or one specific chair no one else is allowed to sit in. At 1 cent, this is less of a purchase and more of a personality assessment.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Mens-Ill-Be-in-My-Office-Washed-Baseball-Cap-1-cent-free-shipping-w-Prime/21891678.html

2) Deals of the Day at Home Depot - Up to 45% Off

Home Depot’s Deals of the Day take up to 45% off select tools, home improvement items, outdoor gear, and more, with free shipping on many items.

Home Depot is one of those places where dads can walk in needing nothing and leave with a very convincing argument for why the household now owns a second ladder. I respect it. Everyone needs a hobby, and “standing in the tool aisle comparing specs out loud” is at least practical.

3) Clarks Men’s Gessler Step Leather Loafers - $40

You can get Clarks men’s Gessler Step leather loafers for $40, with free shipping.

These are not Rockports, but they are very much in the same spiritual category: sensible leather shoes for people who want to look put together without their feet filing a formal complaint. As you know, I’m a big fan of shoes that support you and your knees. Usually that means posting athletic shoes, but apparently we do need footwear for other occasions too. I suppose.

4) 6-Night Malta & Sicily Flight and Hotel Vacation - From $2,798 for 2

This 6-night Malta and Sicily vacation package starts from $2,798 for two people and includes flights and hotel stays.

This is the travel deal portion of the Dad Birthday Programming. Technically, your dad could take your mom. That would be the obvious and probably correct choice. But he could also take his very beautiful and talented daughter who has somehow still not been to Europe. Just putting that out there in case anyone is making birthday travel decisions and values subtlety.

5) Dell Back-to-School Laptop Deals - Up to $900 Off

Dell has back-to-school laptop deals for up to $900 off, with free shipping.

Given DealNews’ history as DealMac, it does feel a little suspect that my dad specifically requested Dell deals. But we respect personal choices here, which is why the site now features all kinds of brands and not just Macintosh deals for the Mac faithful. Growth, apparently, includes accepting that some people simply want a Dell laptop with enough RAM and a sensible discount.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Dell-Back-to-School-Laptop-Deals-Up-to-900-off-free-shipping/21890031.html

That’s today’s five.

A very practical birthday lineup for the dads, dad-adjacent shoppers, and anyone else who appreciates comfortable shoes, Home Depot, and a laptop sale with specs worth reading.

And, Happy Birthday, daddy!

Today’s lineup feels like a very specific summer checklist:
✅ Shoes for walking
✅ Patio gear for pretending we like being outside
✅ Electronics for staying inside
✅ Fried chicken because sometimes dinner needs to be someone else’s problem

Also, yes, HOKA is back. At this point, we should probably give them a recurring guest credit.

1) HOKA Deals at REI - Up to 50% off

REI has HOKA deals for up to 50% off, with free shipping on orders of $60 or more. The sale includes road-running shoes, trail shoes, sportstyle shoes, and more.

As I’ve stated before, HOKA has become the newsletter’s most persistent supporting character. But apparently comfortable shoes keep being relevant, so until our feet stop protesting poor arch support, we will continue sharing these deals with you.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/HOKA-Deals-at-REI-Up-to-50-off-free-shipping-w-60/21889801.html

2) Polo Ralph Lauren Basics Flash Sale at Macy’s - Up to 78% off

Macy’s is taking up to 78% off Polo Ralph Lauren basics with code FLASH. The sale includes underwear, undershirts, pajamas, bras, and more, and it ends today.

Holey moley. Yes, I spelled “holy” incorrectly to draw attention to your drawers. I’m sure most of you replace your essentials, or “basics” as this sale politely calls them, at a perfectly reasonable and socially acceptable pace. For the rest of us, or for anyone who simply likes being prepared before things reach “survived a minor apocalypse” status, you may proceed to the sale.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Polo-Ralph-Lauren-Basics-Flash-Sale-at-Macys-Up-to-78-off-free-shipping-w-39/21889974.html

3) Home Depot Outdoor Oasis Sale - Up to 58% off

Home Depot is taking up to 58% off outdoor furniture, patio decor, and backyard upgrades, with free shipping on many items.

This is for anyone still committed to making the backyard feel like a relaxing oasis instead of a mosquito-funded heat experiment. We admire the optimism.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Home-Depot-Outdoor-Oasis-Sale-Up-to-58-off-free-shipping/21889843.html

4) Walmart Electronics Flash Deals - Up to 70% off

Walmart is taking up to 70% off electronics, including laptops, tablets, cellphones, smart watches, and more. Free shipping applies on orders over $35.

Your tablet is fine. Probably. But this sale would like a word.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Walmart-Electronics-Flash-Deals-Up-to-70-off-free-shipping-w-35/21889800.html

5) Popeyes Real Winning Move Deal - $10

Popeyes has the Real Winning Move deal for $10. It includes a 4-piece signature chicken and a side.

This is not a life-changing deal. It is chicken and a side for $10, which sometimes is exactly the level of ambition dinner deserves.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Popeyes-Real-Winning-Move-Deal-for-10/21889965.html

That’s today’s five.

A little footwear, a little patio denial, a little tech temptation, and one very reasonable excuse not to cook.

We are officially in the part of summer where every errand feels like a character-building exercise.

The car is hot. The steering wheel is hotter. The parking lot has its own weather system. And yet, retailers keep putting useful things on sale, so here I am, once again asking you to consider buying jeans… in July.

Today’s lineup is practical, mostly seasonal, and gracious enough to include an ice maker.

1) Dick’s Summer Clearance Sale - Up to 90% Off

Dick’s Sporting Goods has its Summer Clearance Sale with select apparel, shoes, accessories, and gear for up to 90% off. Shipping is free on orders of $49 or more.

Summer clearance always feels a little rude when we are still very much inside summer. Even if I’m not dreading back-to-school anymore, the spirit of summer is something we carry with us long after school years. The retailers have emotionally moved on to fall. I’m still trying to remember sunscreen before leaving the house.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Dicks-Summer-Clearance-Sale-Up-to-90-off-free-shipping-w-49/21888022.html

2) Like-New Amazon Devices Sale at Woot - From $20

Woot has like-new Amazon devices on sale from $20, with free shipping for Prime members. The sale includes Echo speakers, Fire tablets, Kindles, and more.

This one is for anyone who held off too long on Prime Day and is now quietly kicking themselves, or for the person who bought one Amazon device and realized the ecosystem is how they get you. First it’s an Echo Dot. Then suddenly you’re asking a cylinder in your kitchen to turn off the lamp.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Like-New-Amazon-Devices-Sale-at-Woot-for-From-20-free-shipping-w-Prime/21887960.html

3) Samsonite Ridgeway 2 Hardside Spinner 2-Piece Luggage Set - $89

You can get the Samsonite Ridgeway 2-piece hardside spinner luggage set for $89, with free shipping.

Every sensible and responsible adult needs a matching 2-Piece Luggage Set, at least that’s what we tell ourselves when it’s priced under $100. You may not have a trip booked, but now you have luggage, which feels like the first step toward becoming the kind of person who packs efficiently.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Samsonite-Ridgeway-2-Hardside-Spinner-2-Piece-Luggage-Set-for-89-free-shipping/21888085.html

4) Euhomy Countertop Portable Ice Maker - $40

You can get the Euhomy countertop portable ice maker for $40.

I can’t lie and say I fully understand the “portable” part of a portable ice maker. Am I carrying it around like a personal cooler that keeps making ice? Is it portable in the sense that it can move from the kitchen counter to, say, a very ambitious nightstand? These are questions I’ll leave to the ice enthusiasts among us. At $40, you can conduct your own research.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/products/Euhomy-Countertop-Portable-Ice-Maker/501557.html

5) Levi’s Men’s 511 Slim Jeans - $15 In-Cart

Levi’s has men’s 511 slim jeans for $15 in-cart, with free shipping on orders of $75 or more.

Buying jeans in July feels wrong, spiritually and temperature-wise. But $15 Levi’s are $15 Levi’s, and future you may appreciate the foresight when October arrives and all your pants have mysteriously become “yard work only.”

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Levis-Mens-511-Slim-Jeans-for-15-in-cart-free-shipping-w-75/21888188.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical little lineup for surviving summer, traveling eventually, and making peace with jeans as a July purchase.

Y’all might remember that you received this newsletter on Friday, July 3. A day many of you had off, but I did not.

So, in a bold display of independence, I simply observed it yesterday instead. Very official. Very federal-adjacent. Please direct all complaints to the Department of I Was Out of Office.

Fortunately, the deal mines kept mining without me. Unfortunately, you missed a newsletter yesterday in my absence. C'est la vie. Today we’ve got Amazon discounts, tools, tech, Patagonia, and Lowe’s graphic tees for anyone whose summer wardrobe could use a $5 personality update.

1) Amazon Lowest Price in 365 Days Deals - Up to 90% Off

Amazon has a selection of lowest price in 365 days deals for up to 90% off, with free shipping for Prime members or on orders of $25 or more.

Here is Amazon gently whispering, “Remember that thing you looked at once in February?” and suddenly you’re considering one of those vibrating lymph plates, a Bluetooth speaker, and a very specific storage bin like they were always part of your life plan. I respect the algorithm, but I do not trust it unsupervised.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-Lowest-Price-in-365-Days-Deals-Up-to-90-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21886158.html

2) DeWalt Power Tools & Battery at Home Depot - Buy One, Get Two Free

Home Depot is offering select DeWalt power tools and batteries in a buy one, get two free deal, with free shipping available.

This is the kind of deal that makes the tool people sit up a little straighter. I personally do not need three more DeWalt items, mostly because I do not know what I would do with them beyond walking around the house saying, “Yeah, I can probably fix that.” But for the actual handy people among us, this is a solid way to build out the garage without paying full garage-person prices.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/De-Walt-Power-Tools-Battery-at-Home-Depot-Buy-One-Get-Two-free-free-shipping/21886187.html

3) Unlocked Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Android Smartphone - $450

You can get the unlocked Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold Android smartphone for $450.

A foldable phone still feels like something from the future or the past, except now the future has pricing that we remember from our Razr days. This is for anyone who wants their phone to open like a tiny laptop and make everyone nearby ask, “Wait, what phone is that?” which is either a feature or a social burden, depending on your tolerance for small talk.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/products/Google/Unlocked-Google-Pixel-9-Pro-Fold-Android-Smartphone/486447.html

4) Patagonia Web Specials Sale - Up to 51% Off

Patagonia has its Web Specials Sale with select apparel and gear for up to 51% off. Shipping varies by order.

Buying Patagonia on sale is one of those rare moments where practicality and self-image shake hands. You get quality outdoor gear, and also the quiet confidence of someone who might go hiking at any moment, even if your current plan is mostly walking from the parking lot into Target.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Patagonia-Web-Specials-Sale-Up-to-51-off-shipping-varies/21886174.html

5) Graphic T-Shirts at Lowe’s - $5

Lowe’s has select graphic T-shirts for $5, with free shipping available.

Truly, until today, I did not know Lowe’s sold clothing beyond maybe a hi-vis vest. So I clicked, and I was proud to find exactly the shirt I would expect: a yeti walking while holding an American flag. It really does not get more patriotic than that. Leave it to a home improvement store to understand practicality and budget, even when clothing is involved.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Graphic-T-Shirts-at-Lowes-for-5-free-shipping/21886053.html

That’s today’s five.

A practical little post-holiday lineup for anyone easing back into the week with tools, tech, shirts, and questionable Amazon cart decisions.

It’s National Stay Out of the Sun Day, and, honestly, you don’t have to tell me twice.

Conveniently, today’s deals are very on theme. We’ve got air conditioners, sun protection, outdoor gear, clearance shopping, and tiny Amazon Haul purchases for anyone planning to celebrate the holiday from the comfort of the shade.

1) Nordstrom Rack Clear the Rack Event - Up to 96% off + Extra 25% off

Nordstrom Rack’s Clear the Rack Event is now open to everyone, with up to 96% off plus an extra 25% off select clearance styles. Prices are already marked, and shipping is free on orders of $99 or more.

That "up to 96% off" basically reads as free in my brain. Browse at your own risk. You won't hit the free shipping minimum by buying just one thing, so suddenly you're rationalizing two headbands, a candle, a kettle, and a blouse because, technically, you're saving money. Girl math, amirite?

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Nordstrom-Rack-Clear-the-Rack-Event-Up-to-96-off-extra-25-off-free-shipping-w-99/21871360.html

2) Woot ACs & Home Environment Deals - Up to 71% off

Woot is taking up to 71% off air conditioners, fans, dehumidifiers, air purifiers, and other home environment deals. Prime members get free shipping.

At this point in the summer, “home environment” is just a fancy way of saying “please make the air less hostile.”

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Woot-ACs-Home-Environment-Deals-Up-to-71-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21871306.html

3) The North Face Deals at REI - Up to 66% off + Extra $20 off $100

REI has The North Face deals for up to 66% off, plus members get an extra $20 off orders of $100 or more. Shipping is free on orders of $60 or more.

Like many of you, when I hear "The North Face," my brain immediately goes to winter coats. Thinking about a coat when it feels hotter than the surface of the sun seems a little cruel, but then I remember the wise words of one of TV's greatest dads: "Winter is coming." RIP, Ned.

4) Roadbox Men’s UPF 50+ Long Sleeve Sun Protection Hoodie - $9.99

Amazon has this Roadbox men’s UPF 50+ long sleeve sun protection hoodie for $9.99 with free shipping for Prime members.

If you couldn't tell, I've become mildly obsessed with surviving this week's “heat dome”. National Stay Out of the Sun Day feels less like a novelty holiday and more like excellent advice.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Roadbox-Mens-UPF-50-Long-Sleeve-Sun-Protection-Hoodie-for-10-free-shipping-w-Prime/21871457.html

5) Amazon Haul 4th of July Sale - $3 or Less

Amazon Haul’s 4th of July sale has select items for $3 or less, with free shipping on Amazon Haul orders of $25 or more.

If I were in charge, this would be a $4 or less sale because, you know, July Fourth. Thankfully, Amazon is more generous than I am and made it $3 or less. Please use that extra dollar responsibly.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-Haul-4-th-of-July-Sale-for-3-or-Less-free-shipping-w-25/21871369.html

That’s today’s five.

Stay cool, stay shaded, and maybe don’t let a clearance sale make too many decisions for you.

Happy Birthday, America! 🇺🇸

Happy Fourth of July... Eve Eve? We’re officially in that stretch where everyone is either packing for a cookout, heading to the lake, or wondering why mosquitoes seem personally offended by their existence.

Today’s lineup ends up addressing all the things. we love and hate about summer.

1) Lodge America’s 250th 10.25” Cast Iron Skillet - $24

Amazon has the Lodge America’s 250th 10.25-inch cast iron skillet for $24 with free shipping for Prime members.

Honestly, there’s not much cookware I’d associate more with America than a good cast iron skillet. This is one your future generations might find in the cabinet someday, right next to Grandma’s bicentennial cookie tin. Thankfully, this one is a lot more useful.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Lodge-America-s-250-th-10-25-Cast-Iron-Skillet-for-24-free-shipping-w-Prime/21867039.html

3) Kobalt Stubby 50-Piece Mechanics Tool Set - $20

Lowe’s has the Kobalt Stubby 50-piece mechanics tool set for $20.

Every household has that one drawer where miscellaneous tools go to disappear forever. This won’t solve that problem, but at least you’ll have nicer tools while looking for the missing 10mm socket.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Kobalt-Stubby-50-Piece-Metric-and-SAE-Mechanics-Tool-Set-w-Hard-Case-for-20-free-shipping-w-35/21867029.html

4) Buzbug LED Bug Zapper - $30

The Buzbug LED Bug Zapper is on sale for $30 with free shipping.

The internet insists mosquitoes and flies work opposite shifts, and honestly... that tracks. This zapper doesn't discriminate.

5) 2-Person Camping Tent with Rain Fly - $15

Amazon has a 2-person camping tent with rain fly for $15 with free shipping for Prime members.

That’s today’s five.

Stay cool, avoid the mosquitoes, and enjoy the holiday weekend. We’ll keep an eye out for the deals while you’re hopefully nowhere near your inbox.

Welcome back! I managed to make it back before disappearing into the deal mines for another week, so we’ll call that progress.

Today’s lineup feels very “be prepared.” Whether it’s surviving the summer heat, unexpected rain, or your next kitchen mishap, we’ve accidentally assembled quite the emergency preparedness kit.

1) Prepared Hero Fire Spray Mini Fire Extinguisher 4-Pack - $28

Amazon has a 4-pack of Prepared Hero Fire Spray mini fire extinguishers for $28.

This is one of those things you hope collects dust forever. But if you ever need it, you’ll be very glad Past You decided to spend $28 instead of assuming, “That’ll never happen to me.”

2) Portable Waist Fan with 10,000mAh Battery - $6.39

Amazon has this portable waist fan with a built-in 10,000mAh battery for $6.39.

I’m not saying you’ll look cool wearing a fan clipped to your waistband. I am saying sweating through your shirt is also not a particularly fashionable look. Pick your fighter.

That’s today’s five.

A practical little lineup that should leave you cooler, drier, better dressed, and slightly more prepared than you were this morning.

I’m once again asking for your forgiveness after disappearing into the deal mines.

Prime Day came and went, every retailer decided to join the party, and somewhere in the middle of it all, the newsletter got buried. The upside? I dug through the chaos so you don’t have to. Here are today’s five.

1) Woot Grocery & Household Prime Day Leftovers - Up to 78% off + Extra 20% off

Woot is taking up to 78% off grocery and household items, plus an extra 20% off. New customers can save an extra 30%, and Prime members get free shipping.

Prime Day leftovers sound a little sad until you realize they include things like snacks, deodorant, and household essentials. These are the leftovers we can all get behind.

2) Amazon $2 Flash Sale - $2 or Less

Amazon has a flash sale with select items for $2 or less. Shipping is free with qualifying orders.

There aren’t many things you can find these days for $2. Somehow Amazon aggregated that few number into a scrollable list to make it look like a lot more. Note that they’re only allowing you to walk away with two items at that price, but, hey, we’ll take what we can get.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-2-Flash-Sale-for-2-or-less-free-shipping-w-25/21864326.html

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Generators-Solar-Panels-at-Woot-Up-to-74-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21864270.html

That’s today’s five.

Thanks for welcoming me back from the deal mines. Hopefully I won’t disappear again... but no promises if the retailers have other plans.

After yesterday’s Top 10 situation, we’re bringing things back down to a reasonable five today. Growth is important, but so is not turning this newsletter into a CVS receipt.

Prime Day is still going strong, but today’s list gives Amazon a little breathing room. We’ve got Costco, Woot, REI, Samsonite, and a few deals that feel useful enough to justify the tab overload.

1) Costco Member Appreciation Days - $1,000s in Savings for Members

Costco’s Member Appreciation Days are live through June 26, with member discounts on electronics, appliances, furniture, gift cards, and more. Highlights include a Samsung 65” OLED TV for $1,200, a MacBook Pro 14” M5 for $1,150, and a Midea 12,000-BTU portable air conditioner for $410.

Costco earned our loyalty with cheap hot dogs and rotisserie chickens. Now they're rewarding us with discounts on the kinds of purchases that make you realize you've become an adult.

Woot has refurbished Echo Show 8 smart displays from $27, with free shipping for Prime members.

3) Samsonite Winfield 2 20” Hardside Luggage - $53

Samsonite’s Winfield 2 20” hardside spinner luggage is on sale for $53 with free shipping.

4) Woot Markdown Mania Clearance - Under $5

Woot’s Markdown Mania clearance section has deals under $5, with free shipping for Prime members.

5) Arc’teryx Past-Season Clearance Deals at REI - Up to 70% off

REI is taking up to 70% off past-season Arc’teryx gear, with free shipping on orders of $60 or more.

Arc’teryx is usually priced like it expects you to be summiting something very dramatic. So up to 70% off is a nice moment for the rest of us who mostly just want a good jacket and the illusion of preparedness.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Arcteryx-Past-Season-Clearance-Deals-at-REI-Up-to-70-off-free-shipping-w-60/21851832.html

That’s today’s five

A little travel, a little tech, a little outdoor gear, and a much more manageable number of deals.

Well, I missed yesterday’s newsletter, and apparently the entire retail industry chose those 24 hours to declare a sale.

So consider this a twofer. Ten deals, one extremely crowded shopping week, and enough discounts floating around the internet to make your browser tabs (and mine) a little concerning.

Before we jump in, a quick reminder that this isn’t just an Amazon event anymore. If you’re shopping this week, you’ll also want to check out:

• Macy’s Star Deals

• Target Circle Deal Days

• Walmart Deals & More

• Dick’s Deal Days

• eBay Summer Sale

Because apparently every retailer looked at the calendar and decided this was the week to start a price war.

1) Amazon Prime Day Doorbusters - Up to 65% off w/ Prime

Amazon’s Prime Day Doorbusters are live, with deals across tech, shoes, luggage, TVs, and more. Prime members get access to the sale, which runs through June 26.

This is the main event, so yes, it gets the first spot. Prime Day is basically Black Friday’s summer cousin who shows up with a suitcase full of lightning deals and no respect for your budget.

2) EGO Power+ Self-Propelled Cordless Electric Lawn Mower with 2 Batteries & Charger - $400 w/ Prime

Amazon has the EGO Power+ self-propelled cordless electric lawn mower with two batteries and charger for $400 with Prime. That’s a serious drop for a battery-powered mower setup.

A $400 electric mower is one of those deals that makes yard work feel slightly less insulting. Still yard work, unfortunately. But quieter.

3) Woot Open-Box Sale - Up to 78% off

Woot’s open-box sale is taking up to 78% off a wide mix of products, with free shipping for Prime members.

We feature open-box on here often, but it’s because somehow having oRiGinAl PaCkaGiNG makes a product at least 25% more expensive? So if you can cope with not having your iPhone box live in your closet for 5 years, this deal is for you.

4) Anker 5000mAh Nano Power Bank with Built-In Foldable USB-C Connector - $10

Best Buy has the Anker 5000mAh Nano Power Bank with a built-in foldable USB-C connector for $10 with free shipping.

Most of us live dangerously in that below 40% battery range, but now you can feel a little more put together with this little charger (which includes the connector) in your bag.

5) Under Armour Men’s UA Blitzing 3.0 Cap - $5.48

You can buy this Under Armour Men’s UA Blitzing 3.0 Cap for $5.48 with free shipping.

A name-brand hat for under $6 is very hard to argue with. Perfect for bad hair days, gym fashion, or no hair days.

6) On and HOKA Running Shoes at Woot - Up to 40% off + Extra 20% off

Woot is discounting On and HOKA running shoes by up to 40% off, plus an extra 20% off. Prime members get free shipping.

Yes, HOKAs are back. At this point, they’re basically a newsletter recurring character. But apparently people like comfortable shoes, and we are not here to fight personal growth.

7) Samsung 128GB microSD Memory Card - $33

Amazon has the Samsung 128GB microSD memory card for $33 with free shipping for Prime members.

We all have at least 20k photos that we swear we’ll clean up one day, and let’s be real “one day” has come and gone. Just get the external memory and be done with it.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Samsung-T7-micro-SDXC-128-GB-Memory-Card-for-33-free-shipping-w-Prime/21850902.html

8) Macy’s Fragrance Star Deals - Up to 60% off

Macy’s is taking up to 60% off select fragrance Star Deals, with free shipping on orders of $39 or more.

Fragrance deals are risky in the sense that you may convince yourself you’re becoming the kind of person with a signature scent. Honestly, there are worse sale-week delusions.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Macys-Fragrance-Star-Deals-Up-to-60-off-free-shipping-w-39/21851389.html

9) Microfiber Cleaning Cloth 20-Pack - $4.90

Amazon has a 20-pack of microfiber cleaning cloths for $4.90 with free shipping on orders of $25 or more.

If you can get past the feeling of peeling these off your clothes in the dryer, this deal is for you. Sorry, not sorry, for the previous cringe inducing sentence.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Microfiber-Cleaning-Cloth-20-Pack-for-4-90-free-shipping-w-25/21851018.html

10) Saratoga Sparkling Mineral Water 16-oz. Bottles 6-Pack - $2.89

Amazon has a 6-pack of Saratoga sparkling mineral water for $2.89 with free shipping for Prime members.

Hydration, but make it feel like you own linen pants.

That’s today’s ten

Prime Day may have started the chaos, but plenty of other retailers showed up ready to participate. Good luck out there.

Summer is officially here (well in a couple of days it’s “officially here”) which means we’re entering that magical season where half of us are trying to improve our homes and the other half are just looking for snacks to eat while watching someone else do it.

Today’s lineup covers both groups.

1) Target Outlet Sale at eBay - Up to 70% off + Extra 10% off

Target’s eBay outlet storefront is offering up to 70% off clearance items, plus an extra 10% off with promo code JUNE4TH. The sale includes home goods, electronics, toys, kitchen items, and plenty of random finds.

Is it as fun as your typical Target run? Maybe. Will you end your shopping with more than you intended to purchase? Likely. Target in person and Target online, neither really provide guardrails for self-control.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Target-Outlet-Promo-Code-Sale-at-eBay-Up-to-70-off-Extra-10-off-free-shipping/21843316.html

2) Snacks & Groceries at Amazon - $10 off $35

Amazon is taking $10 off qualifying grocery and snack purchases of $35 or more. The promotion covers a wide range of pantry staples, beverages, snacks, and household essentials.

Whether you have 3 growing boys at home or the appetite of 3 growing boys, this is the kind of sale that makes you realize that maybe your snack budget is a bit busted.

3) Refurbished eero 6 Mesh Wi-Fi Routers - From $35

Woot has refurbished eero 6 mesh Wi-Fi routers starting at $35 with free shipping for Prime members. It’s an affordable way to improve coverage in those mysterious dead zones that seem to exist in every home.

Nothing makes you question modern technology quite like standing in one specific corner of your house and suddenly losing all connection to civilization.

4) Solid State Drive Deals at Woot - Up to 46% off

Woot is discounting a variety of SSDs by up to 46% off, including internal and portable storage options. Prime members get free shipping.

I am not personally one of those brave souls who builds their own computer, but I’m told these are the kinds of people who get excited about SSD deals. So if that’s you, please enjoy being both talented and prepared.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Solid-State-Drive-Deals-at-Woot-Up-to-46-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21843113.html

5) Don’t Forget Dad Tool Day Sale at Woot - Up to 68% off

Woot’s Father’s Day tool sale features discounts on power tools, hand tools, storage, and workshop gear, with savings up to 68% off.

Look, it’s the Friday before Father’s Day, so yes, timing is becoming a factor. But Dad is a practical man. He’d probably be more upset if you paid full price than if the gift showed up a little late. And if you are Dad, go ahead and buy it for yourself. You’ve earned the ceremonial self-high-five.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Dont-Forget-Dad-Tool-Day-Sale-at-Woot-Up-to-68-off-free-shipping-w-Prime/21843116.html

That’s today’s five

A practical little lineup featuring cheaper groceries, better Wi-Fi, more storage, and at least one purchase you (or dad) will justify as “technically useful.”

Have a great weekend and Happy Father’s Day!

Well, well, well. Look who finally remembered they had a Substack.

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or at least mildly curious about where the deal emails went. Either way, we’re back with a pretty solid lineup.

1) Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera - $35

Amazon has the Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera for $35 with free shipping. That’s down from $100 and the best price we’ve seen for this model.

Great for watching the driveway, the porch, the side yard, or the suspicious pack of raccoons that clearly has unfinished business.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Blink-Outdoor-4-Floodlight-Camera-for-35-free-shipping/21842329.html

2) Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro - $140

Best Buy has the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro for $140. These are noise-canceling wireless earbuds with adaptive audio, touch controls, and the kind of features that make ignoring the world feel slightly more ✨premium✨.

Yes, another headphone deal. But clearly someone out there is waiting for the perfect price before upgrading their ability to ignore people, and that’s you, you better jump on it because this sale ends today.

3) Nordstrom Clearance Deals - Up to 70% off + Extra 25% off

4) Crayola Crayons 24-Pack - 50 cents

Walmart has the classic Crayola 24-pack for 50 cents. Choose pickup to avoid shipping, or get free shipping with orders of $35 or more.

Is it too early to think about school supplies? Probably. Is 50 cents cheap enough to ignore the calendar? Also, probably.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Crayola-Crayons-24-Pack-50-cents-free-shipping-w-35-or-pickup/21842191.html

5) Amazon Haul Home Improvement Deals - From $1

Amazon Haul has home improvement deals starting at $1, with free shipping on Amazon Haul orders of $25 or more.

Look, I can’t pretend to know which home improvement gadget becomes irresistible at $1. But at that price, even a questionable impulse buy barely has time to register as a mistake.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Amazon-Haul-Home-Improvement-Deals-for-Deals-from-1-free-shipping-w-25/21842270.html

That’s today’s five

A little tech, a little clearance, a little school-supply whiplash, and one floodlight camera ready to turn your porch into a crime drama.

With today’s lineup of deals you can upgrade the backyard, avoid the heat with new electronics, or buy a $27 projector and pretend your living room is now a theater.

1) Electronics Early Prime Day Deals at Amazon - Up to 65% off

Amazon is running early Prime Day electronics deals with savings on smart home devices, audio gear, TVs, accessories, and more. Shipping is free for Prime members.

3) Dyson OnTrac Wireless Headphones - $250

Dyson’s OnTrac wireless headphones are down to $250. They feature active noise cancellation, up to 55 hours of battery life, and a very Dyson-looking design.

Are they headphones from a vacuum company? Yes. Are we still interested? Also yes. Curiosity is a powerful force.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/products/Dyson/Dyson-On-Trac-Wireless-Headphones/489763.html

4) Open-Box Fugoo 120” Class FHD LCD Projector - $27

Best Buy has this open-box Fugoo 120” Class FHD LCD projector for $27 with free shipping.

A projector for $27 feels like the kind of deal where expectations should remain emotionally balanced. Still, for backyard movie night or a bonus room setup, it is hard not to be curious.

5) Harbor Freight Tools Parking Lot Sale - Up to 55% off in store

Harbor Freight is running its Parking Lot Sale with in-store deals up to 55% off on tools, storage, outdoor gear, and more.

Look, we all have projects that need one specific tool that we can’t justify purchasing at name brand pricing. This sale makes it that much easier for you to obtain said tool.

👉 View the deal: https://www.dealnews.com/Harbor-Freight-Tools-Parking-Lot-Sale-Up-to-55-off-in-store/21840249.html

That’s today’s five

A useful little mix of tech, tools, backyard cooking, and one projector priced low enough to make everyone suspicious.

Have a great weekend, and Go USA 🇺🇸 ⚽️ 🏆
