Today’s Best Tech Deals
Not every TV you own has to have dimming zones, Dolby Vision HDR, or built-in smart apps. Sometimes, you just want a big-ish screen that can display a decent enough picture for not much money. That’s exactly what this 55″ 4K RCA TV will give you for just $270.
Belkin Surge Protector Gold Box | Amazon
Did you know that surge protectors wear out over time? It’s true. So if you haven’t replaced yours since college, today’s a great chance to fix that.
Surge protectors and power strips of all shapes and sizes from Belkin are on sale in today’s Amazon Gold Box, including one of our readers’ favoritehome theater surge protectors, a small one for your desk with built-in USB ports, and a clever one with pivoting ports that can accommodate large plugs behind furniture. For the rest of the deals, be sure to head over to Amazon.
Amazon’s offering one of the best deals on the best noise canceling headphones right now, the Sony WH1000XM3 Bluetooth Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones.

While supplies last, you can snag them and mute the entire world around you for $298, down from the usual $349. And, sure, that’s is still a big investment, but if you spend a lot of time in noisy planes and trains, or if you work in an open office and just need to be able to find a quiet space, you won’t find a better set of headphones.
PNY Elite 512GB microSDXC Card | $90 | Amazon
There’s no such thing as too much storage, but this… this 512GB microSDXC card from PNY may be overkill for most people. If you’re a dedicated Nintendo Switch user with a lot of games and plan on buying a whole lot more, this could be a solid $90 investment.
Advertisement
You’ll be able to fit a ton of games, movies and music with half a terabyte of storage. And this $90 price may seem steep, but it’s a new all-time low (we posted a deal on it for $200 back in January, and at the time it was a great deal!). If you end up buying this one, I applaud your commitment to storage.
Anker SoundCore Infini 35″ Sound Bar | $68 | Amazon
Anker makes a sound bar now, which…yeah, that makes sense. It’s 35″ and features two integrated subwoofers for 2.1 channel audio inside a single box. And naturally, it’ll also work as a gigantic Bluetooth speaker, when it isn’t pumping audio out of your TV.
Advertisement
Normally priced at $80 (or $100 last year), it’s marked down to an all-time low $68 right now, for a limited time.
Today’s Best Home Deals
Summer is right around the corner and that (hopefully) means, so is your vacation. If your luggage set has seen better days, toss those suitcases in the dumpster and head over to Home Depot. Right now, you can get 75% off select luggage sets.

You can get a DENMARK 3-Piece Expandable Hardside Spinner Set for only $100. If you’re not into hardside luggage, you can get this Olympia USA Santa Fe 3-Piece Set in five different colors for between $98 and $99. If you travel light, you can get a Rockland Melbourne 20″ Expandable Carry On in 17 colors for only $45.
If you don’t own a pressure cooker, today’s a great day to fix that. The apartment-friendly 3 qt. Instant Pot Mini Plus wants a permanent home on your kitchen counter, and it’s down to $55 today, a $45 discount from its typical price.
This is the Plus model, which has a few additional cooking modes compared to the original DUO model. You’ll probably never use the Egg mode, but the sterilize mode can be useful for cleaning things like baby bottles, and even for certain types of canning. Its biggest advantage over the original though, in my opinion, is the more information-rich screen.
Advertisement
While Instant Pots are best known for cooking foods quickly, they’re also our readers’ favorite slow cooker, and a damn good rice cooker too. Basically it’s one of the most versatile kitchen gadgets you can own, and this model is great if you’re nervous about it taking up precious cabinet and counter space.
It must be home improvement season, because Amazon’s been coming strong with the power tool deals.
Advertisement
Today, it’s SKIL’s turn in the Gold Box spotlight. By far the most popular tool of the bunch is this $35 hammer drill, but the most impressive is probably this magnesium circular saw for $251, down from its usual $330-$375. For the rest of the deals, head over to Amazon, and remember that these prices are only available today.
Nomatic makes one of our readers’ favorite wallets, but lately, they’ve been getting really into bags. Really, really well made bags.
The company’s latest venture is a full line of rolling luggage that’s packed with features, and you can preorder it right now on Kickstarter to save. Built from high-end Makrolon polycarbonate (backed by a lifetime warranty), secured by YKK brand zippers and a TSA lock, and set atop Hinomoto wheels (the same that you’d find on Away’s smooth-rolling suitcases), the exteriors of the bags seem built to last.
Advertisement
Inside, you’ll find included compression packing cubes that are perfectly sized to maximize your available space, plus built-in compression pads, and even some slick magnetic straps that I’ve never seen on any other suitcase. Available in two different sizes (the carry-on is available both with and without an exterior laptop compartment), preorders start at $349, and are available now. The campaign has already blown through $1,000,000 in orders, and Nomatic has a great track record of delivering projects on time.
WeMo smart switches are basically the atomic unit of home automation, and you can pick one up for just $19 today, the best price we’ve seen outside of Black Friday.
Advertisement
Despite its diminutive size, this includes all the same features as the full-sized WeMo Switch, including IFTTT support, Alexa compatibility, and an Away mode that will randomize your lights to deter ne’er-do-wells.
Hot sauce? Good. Black truffles? Good. Hot sauce infused with black truffles. Good. Truff Hot Sauce “is the pinnacle of heat experience, an intricate blend of ripe red chili peppers, real black truffle, organic agave nectar and savory spices,” according to Amazon, which sounds like something we all need to experience. Luckily, bottles are going for just $14 today in the Gold Box. Just be sure to buy yours before this one-day deal flames out.
That love interest of yours might not be so into labels, but we here at The Inventory are very into labels, and label makers, and slapping labels on all the things everywhere. And you don’t even have to have a type-A personality to know the pure, unbridled joy that comes with organizing your life with personalized fancy stickers, because this high-tech Brother Label Maker is down to $15 on Amazon today. The full keyboard makes it easy to use, and you can store up to 30 labels for easy re-printing—hence why we’d label this a great deal, and your non-committal S.O. a jerk.
If you’ve been dying to try out a weighted blanket but didn’t want to shell out a ton of money, you’re in luck. Weighted blankets are meant to help relieve stress and anxiety, as they give the sensation of being wrapped up in a hug. Right now, you can get the 48″x72″, 15-pound Click Me Weighted Blanket for only $38 when you use the promo code CHWB50Y8. Using that same promo code, you can also get the 15-pound 60″x80″ blanket for $43 and the 20-pound 60″x80″ blanket for $50.
If you’re tired of tripping over shoes when you walk into your house, it’s time to reorganize your life. Everyone should have a small shoe organizer by the front door, for shoes they need to slip on when running out to grab the mail or their food delivery. This MairMAX 5-Tier Shoe Rack is $23 when you use the promo code JBHCVAHR.It is perfect for sliding your shoes into after you get home from a long day at work.
Dyson V10 Absolute | $479 | Amazon
It’s 2019, and your vacuum shouldn’t have a cord anymore. Dyson’s cordless V-series stick vacs have long been go-to cordless options, but the powerful new V10 is arguably the first that can truly, completely replace a corded vacuum, at least for smaller homes.
If only the best will do, the top-end Absolute model is also on sale today for $479, a new all-time low. This includes the larger dust bin of the midrange Animal model, all of its accessories, and also a special soft cleaning head accessory that’s great for cleaning both large and small debris on hardwood floors.
Today’s Best Lifestyle Deals
Japanese skincare brand Tatcha uses gentle, simple ingredients to achieve especially glowy results — but that luxe-looking glow doesn’t come without an equally luxe price tag. Today, though, Tatcha is taking 15% off their entire site with promo code SUMMER19, so it’s time to stock up.
Advertisement
The Water Cream is a best seller (Sephora has struggled to keep it in stock in the past), as is the brand’s exfoliating Rice Polish. The Essence has also received rave reviews; it’s meant to be used just after cleansing, before applying any other skincare products in order to facilitate maximum absorption. I’m personally a big fan of The Indigo Cream, a miracle product containing colloidal oatmeal meant for those with sensitive skin.
LOFT wants to revamp your summer wardrobe via their biggest sale of the season, with 60% off a selection of warm-weather styles and 40% off almost everything else on site using promo code CYBER. All your wear-to-work essentials are up for grabs, including sweaters, blouses, and pants, plus a slew of accessories and jewelry. Thousands of items are included in the promotion, so outfit yourself in a bunch of new stuff now.
Philips Norelco 5570 | $80 | Amazon
If you’re ready to upgrade to an electric shaver, you could do a lot worse than the Philips Norelco 5570 for just $80, or about $20-$35 less than usual.
Advertisement
You can use it wet or dry, its built-in battery runs for an hour on an hour’s charge, and it even comes with sideburn and nose/ear trimmer attachments for detail work. Amazon’s only shaving the price on this thing for one day though, so don’t miss out.
SPANX Flash Sale | Nordstrom Rack
SPANX pretty much has the market on shapewear cornered, and they’re not exactly cheap. So if you feel like that’s something you want, head over to Nordstrom Rack. The selection currently on sale includes SPANX of all shapes and sizes — everything from bike shorts, tanks, and slips to bras and briefs — so you can probably find the perfect undergarments for any outfit you’ve got.
Today’s Best Gaming Deals
It’s-a me, Mario! If you’re obsessed with all things Super Mario, it is time to add a new game to your collection. Right now, you can get a Super Mario Magic 8 Ball for only $8. You’re supposed to start out with simple “yes” and “no” questions, so, you can totally ask if your friend has been cheating at Mario Kart.
Kan Jam | $30 | Amazon
Friends, it’s officially lawn game season, and Kan Jam is a dynamic, active alternative to your standard cornhole and ladder toss. But don’t worry, you can still hold a drink in one hand.
Teams of two line up opposite each other next to two special cans (included), just like Cornhole. One team member tosses a frisbee at a can, and the other attempts to bop it out of the air, and onto or into the can for varying numbers of points. It combines two great activities: throwing a frisbee, and slapping things out of the air, so you’ve got a recipe for fun.
Advertisement
This was one of our readers’ favorite lawn games in a recent Co-Op, and today’s $30 deal is about $5-$8 less than usual. Have fun!
In terms of sheer power and graphical capability, nothing can top the Xbox One X. So if you want to experience modern games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey in their full 4K HDR glory, you can save $160 today on a bundle that includes a copy of PUBG, the best deal we’ve ever seen on the console.
Advertisement
For some comparison, this same bundle on Amazon costs $363 right now, or $23 more.
Logitech’s G600 gaming mouse has 20 MMO-tuned customizable buttons, configurable backlighting, and an all-time low $30 price tag today.
Even if you don’t play a ton of MMOs, you can program those buttons to do anything. They could come in handy in other types of games, or even while working in Excel spreadsheets. Buttons are buttons are buttons.
n
If the 21-pound, top-rated Gloomhavenjust wasn’t quite enough board game for you, the recently-released expansion pack is on sale for $33 today, down from the usual $40.
Gloomhaven: Forgotten Circlesadds 20 new scenarios that take place after the events of Gloomhaven, plus a new character class, seven new monsters (including three bosses), and 14 new items. And as you’d expect, it has a stellar rating on Board Game Geek, just like the base game.
While you’re at it, you should probably pick up the removable sticker set for the expansion.
Super Mario Encyclopedia | $36 | Amazon
The Super Mario Encyclopedia is out today, and it’s the ultimate gift for the Nintendo fan in your life. The Limited Edition comes inside a ? block, and has either a mushroom, a 1-up, a fire flower, or a super star printed on the cover. You don’t get to choose, but that’s part of the fun.
Advertisement
The 256 page encyclopedia includes content from all 17 Super Mario games, and includes behind the scenes interviews, power-up locations, and even explanations of the games’ most famous glitches. Today’s price is the lowest Amazon’s ever listed, so you can save your coins for ore 1-Ups.

Deals You May Have Missed
Ear plugs are great for sleeping on planes, and you’re supposed to wear them to loud concerts too to protect your hearing. Buy this bag of them for $14, and you’ll be stocked up for years.
Contigo’s Autoseal Chill is one of our readers’ favorite water bottles, and you can snag a 24 ounce version for just $16 today.
If you’re running low on cleaning supplies, or even if you aren’t, it’s worth stocking up on Mrs. Meyers’ terrific multi-surface cleaner on sale. Get a pair of 32 oz. bottles for just $10 with Prime shipping today, a new all-time low.
You might not need to use a Dremel all that often, but it’s one of those things everyone should keep in their tool box, if only for sanding wood and carving jack-o-lanterns.
Advertisement
The Dremel 200 is an entry level model, and thus can only spin at two speeds, compared to the variable speed motor you’ll find in more expensive models. But still, it’ll get the job done for a ton of tasks around the house, and includes 15 accessories to get you started.
Kegel exercises can improve your bladder control and strengthen your pelvic floor after childbirth, and this exercises connects to your phone over Bluetooth (not the internet, they take pains to say) to guide you through exercises and control the built in vibration feature. $55 is the best price of the year.
Amazon makes its own lingerie now, because of course they do, and a bunch of it is on sale today.
Tile recently released new gadget finders with user-replaceable batteries, addressing a longstanding concern, and in my opinion, eliminating any reasonable justification for not buying at least one.
Now, you can pick up four Tile Pros for just $76, which is basically like buying three and getting one for free.
Advertisement
The new Tile Pro is water resistant, has a 300′ range (twice as far as the Tile Mate), and an extra loud speaker. I have a Tile on my keychain, which I’ve used just as often to find my phone as I have to find my keys, and even if you can’t think of four things you want to keep track of, maybe you could go in on this purchase with a friend or two.
Ring Video Doorbell 2 | $169 | Amazon
Ring Video Doorbell Pro | $199 | Amazon
Ring Floodlight Camera | $199 | Amazon
Ring Stick-Up Camera Battery | $150 | Amazon
Ring Stick-Up Camera Wired | $150 | Amazon
Ring Father’s Day Sales | Amazon
Video doorbell or standard security cameras? Camera-based or traditional security system? Whatever your home protection preferences, you can get a great deal on the setup of your choice today.
Advertisement
Amazon’s discounting nearly all of its Ring products (save for the smallest accessories) right now, including two different video doorbells (the Ring 2 is battery-powered, while the Pro hooks into your doorbell wiring), a full home security starter kit (with a free Echo Dot), and various cameras, including the Floodlight and Stick-Up Cam, in both wired and battery forms. And in true Amazon fashion, they all come with free Echo Dots.
Wi-Fi range extenders aren’t a networking cure-all, 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 an all-time low $15, why not give this one a try? Just clip the $2 coupon to get the deal at checkout.
The Fitbit Charge 3 is the fitness tracker, perfected, and you can get it for an all-time low $120 on Amazon today. Steps not included, you’ll have to provide those yourself.
Ultimate Ears has long made some of the best sounding and most durable (not to mention best looking) Bluetooth speakers, and their newest BOOM 3 is marked down to an all-time low $120 on Amazon right now.
The spiritual successor to the popular Anker SoundCore Sport, the SoundCore Icon Mini is a tiny speaker that’s designed with the outdoors in mind, and you can save $5 by using the coupon code WELOVEFATHER.
Advertisement
The Icon Mini boasts eight hours of battery life, which is awfully impressive in a speaker that weighs as much as your phone, and takes up about as much space as a deck of cards. It’s also IP67 dust and water resistant, so it can even get fully submerged (to a point) without taking any damage. But best of all, if you get two of them, you can pair them together for stereo sound that will fill your beach tent or campground.
Don’t look now (actually do), but Amazon’s home furnishing offerings have gotten really good.
Advertisement
Today on Amazon, you can save on dozens of pieces of cookware, lamps, desks, chairs, and even entire couches. Every product in this sale that I checked was down to its best price ever, and I’ve highlighted a few of my favorites below. You’ll want to head over to Amazon though to take your pick of trendy, understated mid-century modern decor.
Amazon’s Prime Pantry program has been few a few different iterations, but it’s always been an easy way to stock up on certain groceries without actually going to the grocery store, which is just awful!
Advertisement
For a limited time, Prime members can save $5 on their Pantry order by buying five select items, $10 by buying 10 select items, or $15 by buying 15 select items. Hundreds of products are eligible, including snacks, beverages, toiletries, and household goods, so you can surely find at least five things that you need right now.
Orders over $35 ship for free, so make sure you hit that threshold as well.
Update: This sale is inexplicably still live, nearly a week later. It’s still a good deal!

Memorial Day is one of the best times of the year to buy a mattress, and Leesa isn’t letting us down with 15% off both its standard foam and hybrid spring mattresses, plus two free pillows with every order.
The pillows themselves are somewhat mysterious—they’re automatically added to your card, and are described as “Down Alternative Pillows,” which aren’t listed on Leesa’s pillow page—but hey, they’re free.
The queen Leesa mattress will set you back $845 during this sale (down from $995), and the equivalent hybrid mattress costs $1,440 (down from $1,695). If you need help deciding, there’s a comparison page here, so you can sleep easy with your decisions.
Joseph Joseph’s Cut & Carve cutting board is double sided, dishwasher safe, and angled to collect juices. One side even has spikes to hold your meat in place while you carve. No, it’s not as pretty as a butcher block, but it’s a functional cutting board that you’ll find yourself using every night. Get the black one for an all-time low $14 today, down from the usual $20.
Gerber’s 4.2 star-rated paraframe knife features a unique handle that keeps weight to a minimum, and a deal that keeps its price to a minimum as well.
If you’re having trouble sleeping, suffering from anxiety, or having trouble sleeping because you’re suffering from anxiety, Sunday Scaries CBD gummies could help. Jolie Kerr shared her thoughts on them for The Inventory, and now, our readers can save 17% with promo code GIZMODO17.
That applies to the regular gummies, the vegan versions, and the pure CBD tincture, with extra savings available if you buy in bulk, so your wallet can rest as easy as you will.
Unlike a regular umbrella, Sport-Brella leans backwards and attaches to the sand with stakes, creating a kind of semi-private cocoon with enough space for a couple of chairs and a cooler. Best of all, it sets up in about five minutes (once you know what you’re doing), and can provide a full day’s worth of privacy and sun protection.
Get your web slingers ready, because you’re going to want to get this Spider-Man deal before it skitters away. Right now, you can buy a digital copy of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse for only $10 on Amazon Prime Video, which is 50% off the usual price. That’s a steal for a movie that has been praised as one of the best Marvel films and won an Oscar.
Evan Amos’ Wikipedia-famous game console photography makes for a stunning coffee table book, and it’s down to an all-time low price on Amazon right now. Featuring 300 pages of full color photography spanning the entire history of video games, it also gives you a rare look inside some iconic consoles. Today’s $17 price is the best we’ve seen since the holidays, and within about $1 of an all-time low. Just make sure to clip the coupon on the page.
Most of Arcade1Up’s 3/4-sized arcade cabinets include 2-4 games. The Deluxe Atari cabinet though includes 12, and you can get it for $300 today, down from $400.
Advertisement
PlayAsteroids, Centipede, Major Havoc, Missile Command, Lunar Lander, Crystal Castles, Tempest, Millipede, Gravitar, Liberator, or Asteroids Deluxe whenever you’d like, no quarters required. Walmart even includes a 12″ Arcade1Up riser for free with this cabinet (normally $40 separately), so you won’t have to hunch over while you play.
Long charging cables are terrible for traveling, and further, they’re almost always unnecessary. If you can get by with a tangle-proof 1′ cable in your bag, you absolutely should. Not only will they reach your nightstand just fine from most hotel power outlets, but they’re also easier to stuff in your pocket to use with a portable battery pack. This PowerLine model from Anker is on sale for $7 today with promo code ANKERL1W.
The Apple Watch charging cable is an awkward thing to pack for a trip. For one, it’s probably firmly attached to some kind of dock or stand on your nightstand, and thus easy to forget. For two, the thin cable with a big, heavy puck on the end is a tangling nightmare in your bag.
Advertisement
Enter UGREEN’s portable Apple Watch charger, now down to $32 after you clip the $2 coupon and add promo code HDSHVH58. It doesn’t have a cable at all, but rather plugs straight into a USB charging port, and balances your watch on top. Smart!
Amazon sells its own activewear, because Amazon sells everything now, and they’re discounting a bunch of the men’s stuff below their already-low MSRPs today.
Advertisement
A few highlights are below, but head over to Amazon to see all 125 discounted options from Peak Velocity, Amazon Essentials, and, uh, Starter, which is apparently a pseudo-Amazon exclusive brand now?
I struggle to remember a time that a single-port USB charger generated as much buzz as Anker’s PowerPort Atom PD 1. The tiny, 30W USB-C GaN charger was almost constantly sold out when it came out earlier this year, but now our readers can get it for the best price ever.
To get the charger for $24, you’ll need to clip the $3 coupon on the product page, then add promo code KINJAPD3 at checkout. Not for nothing, that $24 final price is about half of what Apple chargers for a much larger charger with the exact same power output.
While you’re at it, grab a USB-C to Lightning cable for $9. Plug it into this charger, and you can charge an iPhone from 0% to 50% in 30 minutes.
If, like me, you prefer to spend as much time as possible under a blanket at home, Gravel made a blanket that you can take with you anywhere.
The Layover Travel Blanket isn’t the only compact, nylon blanket out there, but it does seem to be one of the most thoughtfully designed. It has a leg pocket to keep your feet extra warm (and hide them if you take your shoes off on a plane)! It has a built-in storage pocket for your phone and keys! It packs down into an included sack that’s smaller than a pair of shoes! It weighs less than a pound! Plenty of people pack a travel pillow to stay comfortable on planes, trains, and busses, and Gravel’s betting that they can convince a lot of travelers to bring a blanket too.
Advertisement
The Layover is the third Kickstarter project from Gravel, the folks behind my personal favorite toiletry kit, and has already blown through its funding goal. You can cozy up to the blanket for an earlybird price (currently $99) by preordering, or save more by preordering two. They snap together to form a larger blanket, after all.
Battery packs are useless without cables, so one way to make sure you always have one is to just, uh, build the battery into the cable.
Advertisement
In addition to be being a fully-capable Lightning cable, the Portal Cord offers up a decently-sized, 1,800 mAh battery capable of charging an iPhone XS to about 70%. (USB-C and MicroUSB versions are also available, in addition to Lightning).
Of course, the Portal Cord isn’t the first product to do this, but it looks like a real marriage between a cable and a battery pack. Unlike the discontinued Jackery Jewel and the Nomad Battery Cable which were ostensibly lipstick-sized battery packs with a cable running through, the Portal Cord splits its battery capacity between four humps. This design choice makes the cable a little bit more manageable and cord-like. (At first glance, I actually mistook it to be Apple’s BeatsX headphones.)
Of course, the 1,800 mAh battery isn’t likely to replace your dedicated power bank for extended trips away, but it’ll definitely do well in a pinch.

And unlike a battery pack, it’ll charge while you sync your phone with your computer or plug it into the wall. This means you’ll never have to remember to charge it. (Like its competition, the cable prioritizes the charging of your smartphone before it begins charging the internal battery of the cable.)
If this sounds like something you’d like, you can pledge $55 on Kickstarter in your choice of black, white or gray. It’s quite a bit more than a regular cable, or a regular battery pack, but for some, the convenience of an always-ready battery may very well be worth the cost.

This deal is even available to non-Prime members, though it’ll renew at $10 per month instead of $8. But either way, three months to stream the new Vampire Weekend on repeat for free? Yes please.
Our readers’ favorite VPN recently raised prices for the first time ever, and the company’s best-value (and Kinja Deals-exclusive) three-year plan is going away at the end of the week, so this is your last chance to subscribe at the best per-month price available.

Three-year plans aren’t available to the general public at all, but if you click this link, you can get three years for $99, which works out to just $2.75 per month. That’s only $9 more than it was cost to the price hike, and while shorter plan lengths are available, none come close to the per-month pricing of this three-year membership. For example, the publicly available two-year plan costs about $84, and a month-to-month plan will set you back $10 per month.
If you subscribe to the three-year plan today, you’ll be able to continue to renew it at the same price for the life of your subscription, so this is a great chance to lock in a terrific deal.
