Best Amazon deals this weekend: I’m snagging Apple AirPods for a record low, plus a slew of rare sales

If you’ve been holding off on buying AirPods until there’s a sale, consider this the time to pounce. At just $99, this pair is down to the best price I’ve seen. 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. 

While we’re on the subject of AirPods, these best-in-class ‘buds boast active noise cancellation, which shuts out the world so you can immerse yourself in music, podcasts or whatever makes you happy. Adaptive Transparency mode lets you listen to your tunes but also hear any important noises from your surroundings — and this is as low as they’ve been since 2024.

The stickier the weather gets, the fewer products we want to slather onto our skin. That’s why having a moisturizer and serum in one is so clutch, and this one’s formulated with ingredients like aloe, glycerin and niacinamide to help firm and soften while delivering essential moisture. It’s also lightweight — a boon on those sweltering days — and at over 30% off, it’s within a dollar of its lowest price in years.

This is the latest version of this iPad, so the fact that it’s already on sale (for its lowest price ever) makes this a deal worth considering. According to Yahoo Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, “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.”

If you only buy one knife for your kitchen, a sturdy chef’s knife is a solid choice. It’s versatile enough to use for chopping meat and proteins or thinly slicing vegetables, and Zwilling has been perfecting its high-carbon steel cutlery for centuries, so you know you’re getting a quality product. At 60% off, it’s down to its lowest price since 2017. 

Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini said she was so thrilled when she saw this deal, she “could barely type.” Why is that? For starters, this serum comes from a well-respected brand and its star ingredient is hyaluronic acid, a hydration agent that can help plump the skin for a smoother appearance. 

“Since we lose moisture and elasticity as we age, the humectant hyaluronic acid, an ingredient which binds to water — and can hold a whopping 1,000 times its weight in water — is key to any quality anti-aging skin care regimen,” she says. “You’d be hard-pressed to find a better hyaluronic acid serum than this award-winning version.” Among the other concerns it targets? Dark circles, fine lines, dark spots … plus, it’s within a dollar of its lowest price. Need any more convincing it belongs in your cart?

Ever wish you could connect your earbuds to the in-flight entertainment rather than using those flimsy headphones the airline hands out?

(Psst: You can also hook it up to the treadmill at the gym.)

Unlike your standard fly swatter, these have 3,000-volt grids to shock bugs — just wave one at ’em, and you’ll hear the satisfying sound of them being fried to a crisp. (Ew, but better than letting them take over your patio!) They also have bases, so you can prop them up on a table to lure mosquitoes. They’re down to their lowest price yet — just $1 more than a single swatter — so grab them before bug season is in full swing.

RHOBH star Kyle Richards gives this pack two thumbs (toes?) up. “These are great, these no-show socks. They come in a package of six!” she says during an Amazon Live. She admits that when her “socks are showing,” her friends make fun of her look — “[It’s] a dorky vibe,” she laughs. “The aesthetic is not good, guys, if you’re wearing a sock with your workout shoes … They shouldn’t show!” At 50% off, this is as low as they get. 

Not only will this 2-in-1 tool help free up some space in your bathroom cabinet, it’ll also be a bit easier on your tresses, thanks to its non-pulling titanium plates.

These kitchen essentials aren’t just Amazon bestsellers, they’re also editor-approved. “Durable yet lightweight, the flip-style lids were easy to clean and, when locked, the set proved to be airtight,” says Home & Garden Writer Kristin Granero, who named them “best food storage containers overall” after testing many brands.

She continues, “Based on our experience, the containers are also odor- and stain-resistant, so they still smell fresh and look like new after being used to store colorfully sauced foods such as marinara sauce and hot wings. Unlike some other plastic containers on the market, these containers have excellent clarity — especially helpful when you need to identify food quickly or navigate a fully stocked fridge.” Since 2023, they’ve only dipped lower in price by a dollar.

Been eyeing one of these bad boys? You’d be wise to pounce while you can save $80. At 4.5 quarts, it can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time (though it won’t take up too much room in your kitchen). This is the brand I use at home, and it comes with a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun. Since it does all of the mixing for you, it’ll give your arms a break, and you can let it run while you prep other ingredients — a must when making large batches.

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.

This little doodad can also go in closets, drawers, your car … anywhere that could use some stench removal. This is the lowest it’s been since last summer, so scoop it up while you can.
