I also spotted AirPods for $99, over half off a Shark robovac and a KitchenAid knife set for under $30, to name a few.

Helllooo? Anybody out there? Seriously, are any of you not spending this mid-August interlude either completely checked out at work or deeply, deeply under the influence of a long-awaited summer vacay? Well, whether you're slacking on the clock, sunning on a rock or strolling on the dock, we hope you take a minute sometime between your mid-day lobster roll and your soft-serve dessert to behold the stunning Amazon weekend deals that are on offer.
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, we're telling you to snap up this Shark robovac — it's a ridiculous $300 off. Got a hefty fall (e-)reading list in the offing? Hunker down with a brand-spanking-new Apple iPad Air at a very edifying $150 markdown. Maybe just treat yourself to a classy Coach tote ($250/$207), chow down with a 6-quart air fryer ($120/$70), say "Cheese!" to an ultra-whitening ultrasonic toothbrush ($50/$38) or snuggle up to a set of hotel-quality bedsheets ($40/$30).
Consider this the verbal equivalent of us grabbing you by the collar and lightly but determinedly slapping your cheek. It's for your own good. We promise; as soon as you've gifted yourselves some of this weekend's best Amazon deals, you can return to your regularly scheduled mid-summer coma.

If you've been holding off on buying AirPods until there's a sale, consider this the time to pounce. Yes, they were 10 bucks cheaper during Prime Day, but at $99, you'll pay $30 less than you would at the Apple Store — and they're unlikely to dip lower than this anytime soon.
Now, they don't include active noise cancellation like these do, but if it's a high-quality, comfortable listening experience you're after, these earbuds more than deliver. With up to five hours of listening time per charge (and 30 hours of battery life via the charging case), you'll be able to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more with limited interruption.
If you've had one of these bad boys on your wishlist for a while, I'd urge you to scoop up this deal while you can. Why? Well, it happens to be close to its lowest price in months.
Cleaning your floors doesn't get much easier than turning it on and letting it take care of dry and wet messes. It can run for up to 130 minutes per charge and is smart enough to sense when it's near carpeting (which is its cue to pause the mop function).

Scoring a new MacBook on sale is always a win, and this price is the lowest ever for this model. It features the latest-generation M4 chip, meaning you'll get a much more powerful computer with everything else you love about the MacBook Air, including its outstanding 18-hour battery life and gorgeous 13.6-inch screen.

Are wildfires affecting the air quality where you live? According to AirNow, investing in an air purifier with a HEPA filter — like this one — can help remove airborne particles from your home. What makes this model stand out is the fact that its filter can last for up to five years before needing a replacement, saving you a nice chunk of change in the long run. Plus, at under five pounds, it's easy to move from room to room, and a light-up display provides air quality updates in real-time.
Speaking of saving money, this Shark costs as much as $180 in certain colors, and it's only dipped lower than this once (by just 10 bucks).
The Tile Mate does wonders for one's peace of mind, especially one with a rather forgetful husband who constantly misplaces his keys around the house. How does it work? Just download the Tile app, sync it up to the Tile Mate, then clip it onto your keys or purse. Now you can rest easy knowing that if you misplace that item, you can simply log into the app and prompt it to sound a (pretty loud) alarm as long as you’re within 350 feet of Bluetooth range.

If a sleek design is at the top of your tablet wishlist, the latest iPad Air is the perfect fit. Equipped with Apple's powerful M3 chip, it offers all-day battery life, a stunning 12-megapixel camera and a Liquid Retina display that makes movies and TV shows pop.
"The screen resolution is really beautiful," wrote one impressed shopper. "It's lighter in weight than my old one and a little thinner. The camera takes gorgeous pictures."

Staying hydrated is especially important during the summer, and if you'd rather not shell out for a Stanley, this bottle is just as aesthetically pleasing, keeps drinks cold for hours and has a tapered bottom to fit in your cupholder.
It's also less expensive, especially now that it's on sale (at it's lowest price ever) for over 40% off (Stanley thermoses of this size can cost $40 and up).

Soggy bath mats, begone: This ultra-thick, impossibly soft rug is made of highly absorbent and quick-drying chenille microfiber that'll soak up excess water from your feet in a jiffy. Its plush texture will feel like heaven after your shower, and at over 40% off, it's down to its lowest price yet.

When it's too hot to turn on the oven, it's this compact countertop cooker to the rescue. With one-touch settings for fish, chicken, meat and fries, it'll have a meal on the table in minutes, and with little to no oil. Plus, it's less than a foot wide, so it won't take up much space. This over-40% markdown is the best I've seen, and there's also a model with a viewing window on sale.

This queen-size, all-season comforter is right up Goldilocks's alley: oh-so-soft and cozy enough for the colder months, but not too stuffy during the summer. The classic white version is more than 50% off, bringing it down to just $24 — essentially the price of a Sweetgreen salad. In fact, it's close to as low as I've seen it in years.
It has tens of thousands of five-star ratings to back it up (in addition to mine — I love it!), so if you're even thinking about adding it to your cart, now would be a smart time.
Not ready to shell out for AirPods? Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida recommends these. "Open-ear headphones are all the rage, but they're usually not cheap: Prices typically start over $100 and rise from there," he says. "Behold the pleasant surprise that is the Baseus Bass BC1, a cuff-style open-ear headphone that I just started testing. ... Comfy fit, decent sound, more bass than I expected ... Grab these before they jump back up to their already-pretty-amazing regular price of $40."
When you think of under-eye skin care that's actually effective, are you also envisioning large dollar signs? According to Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini, it doesn't cost a lot to give that area a glow-up.
"If you're looking for a low-cost retinol treatment to help with dark pigmentation, this is for you," she says. "RoC is the premier name in over-the-counter retinol, and its eye cream is highly rated. ... It's excellent for improving the appearance of both fine lines and dark circles, and it's dermatologist-recommended too. I only wish it contained more antioxidant, nourishing ingredients. But for the price, it honestly cannot be beat."
Speaking of price, this is close to as low as I've seen it in months.

Tired of shelling out for pricey bevs from Starbucks? Senior Home Writer Lisa Schweitzer put a slew of milk frothers to the test to find the best ones for at-home use. After trying out some of the most popular models on the market, she awarded this one the title of "best handheld milk frother" — and it happens to be on sale for its lowest price ever.
"While some handheld frothers are less effective than countertop versions, this Amazon No. 1 bestseller and Yahoo editor favorite is an impressive powerhouse that works quickly," she says. "It took me about a second to figure out how to use it (you basically just press the 'on' button) and about a minute for it to froth both dairy and almond milk into a cloud of rich and creamy foam."
What sets the Tornado apart from other handheld options is its triple-whisk design, which results in even more voluminous foam in a snap. It's powered by two AA batteries (sold separately), so there aren't any annoying cords to deal with. Plus, it comes with its own metal stand in case you want to leave it on your counter for easy access.

Apple products are so sought after that they don't really need to go on sale, and when they do, it's often because they're older models. But this is the latest version of this iPad, which makes this markdown extra special.
According to Yahoo Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, who specializes in all things tech, "It's an ultra-light, thin tablet that's powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag without a second thought. With a large 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you're swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before feel like an old tube TV.
"If you've got a habit of toggling between a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages at once, you're in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you're into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame."
Never fight with your family members over power outlets again. This electrifying gadget boasts five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their devices at once. Oh, and it's so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor (and there's no way you'll trip over it).
No, it's not a massive discount, but this top-seller is a dollar shy of its all-time low (and it's retailed for as much as $20 in the past).
"Spotty Wi-Fi is the bane of my existence," laments McGraw. "My house isn't that big, but it is still full of dead zones. If you're experiencing the same issue, this extender is a quick solution to your Wi-Fi woes. It's about as close to a plug-and-go solution as there is, and the best part is you don't have to spend an hour on hold with your ISP trying to figure out a fix."
Currently, it's only a few cents above its all-time low price.
Got travel plans? Don't find yourself in a new place with 4% phone battery. According to McGraw, this on-the-go juicer-upper "is powerful enough to recharge an iPhone two times and AirPods Pro about 13 times."
He adds, "The power bank supports fast charging and can boost an iPhone to 60% in just 25 minutes. The gadget's 15-layer SmartProtect system eliminates the risks of overheating, overvoltage and other mishaps that might damage your devices. It features three separate ports (two USB-A, one USB-C), which means you can charge up to three devices at once. And that cute paw print? It's a charge indicator that lets you see how much power is left at a glance."

Best Amazon deals: Style
Senior Style Writer Rebecca Carhart came across these shoes on TikTok, where buyers were raving about how comfortable they are — one with the username @shescutesy said she walked over 50,000 steps in them. "These lightweight slip-ons have an antimicrobial, anti-odor insole that prevents your feet from smelling while you walk around on hot, sticky days," says Carhart. "They also have anatomical cushioning for added comfort and support. A small platform gives you a little boost."
This 32%-off deal drops them to one of their best prices in months.
In case you're not familiar with the "rich mom" trend that's currently sweeping the style world, here's how I'd sum it up: dressing like one is in the chips without being flashy about it. That means a wardrobe filled with simple-yet-chic staples like this crisp striped number that looks put together in the easiest, breeziest way.
Layer it over a tank on cooler summer nights or tuck it into some trousers for the office. The blue-and-white version is particularly timeless, and a steal at nearly 50% off (just $2 more than its all-time low).
"Of course it's got space to fit your wallet, sunnies, phone and other personal items, but this cute Coach handbag will hold way more than just the essentials," says Carhart. "You can wear it across your chest, thanks to the removable crossbody strap or carry it by its top handles as a mini tote."
It's nearly $90 off in five colors/prints — decisions, decisions!
If you're always on the hunt for denim that makes you look and feel your best (and who isn't?), these bestsellers deliver, and they're nearly 50% off. There's nothing more versatile than a flattering pair of blue jeans when it comes to any seasonal wardrobe — pair it with a tee for a casual summer look, or a flannel button-down for a more stylish autumnal vibe.
Our Executive Editor, Nicole Sforza, is a huge fan. Read her full review here.
How cutesy-chic is this sleeveless top? I love the idea of pairing this crinkly blouse with tailored trousers for an office-appropriate ensemble. On weekends, pair it with some cute jean shorts and, if you're heading out for a night on the town, try it with a midi skirt for a sleek duo. The best part? It looks pricey, but it's as little as $12 right now and available in 22 colors.

Don't want a new vac to suck a ton of cash from your wallet? This sleek stick's a rare $74 (it's only dipped lower than this once). It sports strong suction for zapping up everything from dust to pet hair, and provides up to 40 minutes of run time per charge. Plus, its LED lights help you see those darker spaces, and its cyclonic filtration system traps airborne particles as well.

A four-piece sheet set reviewers are describing as "hotel quality," and it's just 24 bucks? Yeah, I was skeptical too, but tens of thousands of shoppers are scooping up this bedding and loving it, so you might want to consider following their lead while you can save 40% (its best discount all year).
The fade- and wrinkle-resistant sheets are made of soft, lightweight microfiber that won't feel too stifling on stuffy evenings, and they wick away moisture to spare you from waking up sweaty. Plus, the deep-pocket fitted sheet was designed to actually, you know, stay secured to your mattress.
These wildly popular, smooth-as-silk headrest covers feel (and look) downright luxurious, but at just $7 a pair (their Prime Day price), they're a wallet-friendly upgrade.
They can minimize hair breakage and frizziness, as well as help prevent fine lines and wrinkles by keeping skin from creasing as much. Talk about beauty rest!
Robovacs are great, but for a truly hands-off experience, you'll want a self-emptying model: This No. 1 bestseller has a collection bin that can hold up to 60 days' worth of dust and debris. That means you could go as long as two months without having to clean it out, saving you even more time.
It's powerful enough to zap up everything from the kids' crumbs to Fido's fur, and its 360-degree LiDAR vision allows it to sense and move around any larger objects and furniture it comes across. The Matrix Clean feature encourages it to work in a grid pattern for more thorough coverage, and you can schedule cleanings or ask it to focus on a specific area via the SharkClean app or even your voice (it's compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant).
The only time I've seen it on sale for less was Black Friday, so add it to your cart while you can save 50%.
Before we know it, it'll be time to pack up those sundresses and shorts to make room for sweaters and slacks.

They're waterproof, have heavy-duty handles and easily fold down when not in use. Plus, they come with little tag pockets so you can jot down what's being stored in each.
They haven't been on sale for less since April, so snag a set ahead of fall.

Keep those pearly whites, well, pearly and white with this wildly popular — as in, over 80,000 were purchased in the past month — electric toothbrush. It provides 40,000 vibrations per minute to kick plaque to the curb, and you'll get eight brush heads included — enough to last 2½ years.
My price trackers tell me it's within a few bucks of its all-time low. Be sure to check out our roundup of the best electric toothbrushes — where it was named best overall — for more.

Smelly fridge? Yeah, not so appetizing. But this unassuming stink slayer works for up to 10 years (yes, you read that right) to keep things fresh. All you do is place it inside and, well, that's actually it. Sorry, baking soda — you've been replaced.

It's waterproof and easy to wipe clean, and at over 30% off, this is close to as low as I've seen it marked down to in years.
I have trouble finding just one good knife for under 50 bucks these days, let alone a set of three! What attracts me to this trio is the fact that the handles and blades are forged together, meaning there are no hard-to-clean crevices that'll trap mold, and each one comes with a protective cover. Included are a chef's knife, a santoku knife and a paring knife — and you don't need much more than that.
Get unstuck with a set of slick pots and pans. This attractive 14-piece collection just about has it all: 8- and 11-inch frying pans, a 4.3-quart casserole with lid, 1.8- and 4.5-quart saucepans with lids, four pan protectors, a spatula and a mixing spoon.
That's all for $70 — less than you'd pay for a single pan from many brands (and within $4 of its lowest price yet).
Check out our roundup of the best cookware sets for additional options.
