Amazon Outlet
In a nutshell, Amazon Outlet is an online overstock shop with low-cost items galore, crossing every Amazon category. You might be surprised by what's listed in the “patio” section (64 percent off a highly rated fire pit) "kitchen" (an air fryer that's over half off) and in “electronics” (Apple AirPods for under $100!). It's pretty fun to just randomly scroll the main Amazon Outlet page and dig through thousands of overstock deals.

Amazon Device Deals
When you need a new device, this special Amazon Device Deals link is the place to go. While you could check out Amazon's main page for "Today's Deals" and select "Amazon Devices" for some sale items, it won't reveal all the deals. Amazon Device Deals has a stunning selection of markdowns on new and refurbished gadgets for your home. Don't tell Mom, but I'm gifting her with this Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021 release) for Mother's Day for $90 (was $130) to make video calls a breeze. There are deals on so many devices for your home (Blink security cam!), your person (Echo Frames) and even your car (Echo Auto is 60 percent off!).
