Amazon Spring Sale: The best early deals on kitchen gadgets, tech, spring clothing and more at up to 80% off
Are temperature and cost inversely proportional to each other? The reason I ask is that, as the weather gets milder, Amazon's prices seem to be plummeting. Maybe there's a scientific reason behind this phenomenon — or, perhaps more likely, we're being treated to a little preview of the Amazon Big Spring Sale. It was just announced that this seasonal savings event will kick off next Tuesday, March 25 and go through the end of the month (mark your calendar!). That said, I'm already seeing markdowns of up to 80%, so if this is just the sneak peek, I can only imagine what the official sale will have in store.
Top Amazon Big Spring Sale early deals
Cozsinoor Bed Pillows, Queen, 2-Pack for $27 (was $120): Nearly 80% off
Stanley Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumbler, 30-oz for $26 (was $35): All-time low
Granitestone Piezano Pizza Oven for $100 (was $150): Near-all-time low
Yeti Roadie 24 Cooler for $200 (was $250): All-time low
Zinus Green Tea Mattress, Queen for $148 (was $200): All-time low
iRobot Roomba for $130 (was $250): Nearly 50% off
Some sought-after items, like a Stanley tumbler and Yeti cooler, are down to record-low prices as we speak. My advice? Scoop 'em up before they sell out, because they're not likely to dip lower than they are now. I also spotted the countertop pizza oven my parents can't stop talking about (it's within a few dollars of its all-time low), as well as an iRobot Roomba for nearly 50% off (just in time for spring cleaning) and a classic Hanes zip-up hoodie for a mere $16 (an A-plus transitional weather staple).
Now, before we jump into the rest of the best early Amazon Big Spring Sale deals, I also need to make you aware of an insane Disney+ and Hulu bundle bargain: From now until March 30, you can get a Disney+, Hulu Bundle Basic subscription for just $2.99 per month for four months (after which, you'll be charged the regular price of $10.99 per month). That's a 72% savings! Just note that this offer only applies to new and eligible returning customers.

I Wear My Beats Studio Pro Headphones 4 Hours a Day -- and They're Over 50% Off Now
It all started when my beloved Apple AirPods just stopped working one day. No matter what I did, attempting to charge and revive them, they simply would not turn on, and I had to finally accept that they had a good run, and it was time to put them to rest. RIP. That put me in a tricky predicament, though. I use headphones at least 4 to 5 hours a day, and I desperately needed new ones immediately. I knew I was due for an upgrade, but the AirPods weren't on sale at the time. But coincidentally, the Beats Studio Pro were. I didn't expect to fall in love with a pair of headphones so quickly, especially because I loved my Apple buds so much. I was just hoping for solid noise cancellation and good sound quality, but the Beats delivered so much more -- and now they're an essential part of my daily routine, practically an extension of my ears. Like I said, I get a lot of mileage out of them every single day. Whether I'm writing, commuting, doing chores or taking my precious pup out for a walk, the Beats Studio Pro are there with me. And now, most colors are a solid 51% off right now on Amazon. If you've been eyeing a pair or looking for a thoughtful gift, now's the time to grab them. Let me explain why. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Here's how the Beats Studio Pro work Let's start with the specs. The Beats Studio Pro are premium over-ear headphones that bring serious upgrades to the iconic Beats design. Think of these as the grown-up, more refined cousin of the Beats Solo series. They're still stylish, still punchy, but with significantly better sound quality and comfort. Here are some key features of the Beats Studio Pro: Macy Meyer/CNET Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode : Two core features that let you tune out the world or stay aware, depending on your mood. The ANC is excellent, especially for this price, and it's great for navigating travel, open offices or city streets. and : Two core features that let you tune out the world or stay aware, depending on your mood.

That's more than enough to get you through several workdays or even a full international flight without scrambling for a charger. Built-in microphones and voice-targeting beamforming tech: Translation: your voice will sound clear on calls, even in a noisy space. They also pair effortlessly with both Apple and Android devices, thanks to support for Find My, Google Fast Pair and one-touch pairing. CNET audio expert David Carnoy closely reviewed these earphones and found both the sound quality and voice-calling performance impressive. "The noise canceling is quite effective," Carnoy wrote in his review. "It's the adaptive variety, so it's not a fixed setting, and occasionally I'd hear it shift in strength as it adjusted to the ambient noise around me, whether I was on the subway or walking the streets of New York." Why I'm obsessed with my Beats There are plenty of great headphones out there. So what sets these apart for me? First and foremost, I love the comfort. I've worn lots of over-ear headphones that start to ache or feel heavy after an hour or so. I also have several ear piercings -- five in my left ear and three in my right -- and that means many over-ear headphones push the earring into my skin, digging in until it's quite painful. Not these. The earcups are plush, the clamping force is just right, and the memory foam actually makes a difference. I can wear them for hours without fatigue, which is saying something when you log four to five hours a day in them. The sound quality is also great. Beats used to have a reputation for overly bass-heavy tuning, but the Studio Pro strikes a beautiful balance. There's still that satisfying low-end thump when I'm listening to pop, hip hop or K-pop, but it doesn't overpower the vocals or mids. Whether I'm streaming Hozier for the umpteenth hour, catching up on podcasts or listening to a new audiobook, everything sounds great. Finally, the ANC and Transparency Mode are shockingly good. I've used my Beats in loud coffeeshops, on airplanes and while vacuuming, and they efficiently block out noise like a champ. But when I need to hear what's going on (like when I run into one of my neighbors while I'm walking my dog), a quick button press switches me into Transparency Mode, and I can hear them clearly. It's seamless. I would also be remiss if I didn't mention their style. Frankly, they just look cool. I know that's not the most important thing, but the sleek matte finish, the minimalist design and the range of colors make these headphones feel like a fashion accessory as much as a tech device. I have the "Earth" color headphones, and they look so gorgeous with any outfit. My one request, though, (Beats execs, I'm sure you're reading this!) would be to make these in a sage green color. Pretty please? They'd make a great gift for any audiophile Buying tech for someone else can be tricky, but I think the Beats Studio Pro are a pretty safe bet for anyone for a few reasons. For one, they work across platforms, so it doesn't matter if your gift recipient is team iPhone or Android. The intuitive pairing process, native device integration and wide compatibility make these user-friendly for just about anyone. They're also great for all types of use cases. Daily commuters? Check. Frequent flyers? Definitely. College students pulling all-nighters, or music lovers who want to hear every nuance of a track? Absolutely. These can suit really any type of person, day in and day out. The Beats just feel premium, too. This is the kind of gift someone might not splurge on for themselves, but they would certainly be grateful to open up these Beats, no matter the occasion. If you're shopping for graduation season, Father's Day or a summer birthday, these are a hit waiting to happen. Why this Beats deal matters Let's get down to numbers. The Beats Studio Pro normally retail for $350 or $450, depending on the color you select. That's pretty pricey. But right now, most colors are 51% off, bringing the price down to about $170. That's some of the lowest prices I've seen, and I keep a pretty close eye on tech deals. Sales like this don't come around often, especially on newer, high-demand models, so when they do, it's worth jumping on. Considering the quality, durability and features packed into these headphones, $170 is honestly a steal. You're getting flagship-level ANC, excellent sound and cross-platform support for less than the cost of most premium earbuds. My final thoughts on my Beats Studio Pro headphones In a world full of flashy gadgets and fleeting trends, the Beats Studio Pro are the real deal. They've become an essential part of my everyday life, not because they're trendy or hyped, but because they work. They're reliable, comfortable and sound fantastic. And now that they're seeing a deep discount, it's a great time to pull the trigger and buy them.

Small retailers on 'vacation from hell' as they seek clarity on Trump's China tariffs
When Matt Kubancik, a small business owner in Louisville, Kentucky, cast his ballot for Donald Trump in November, he was hoping that the Republican nominee's return to the White House would provide a spark to the economy and lead to reduced prices for gas and groceries. Instead, the first half-year of Trump's second term in the White House has been more like a "vacation from hell," Kubancik said. Guardian Baseball, the baseball goods company he co-founded in 2018, mostly relies on manufacturers in China, which is locked in a full-blown trade war with the U.S. It didn't take long for Kubancik to regret his vote. After 20 years as a Republican, Kubancik changed his registration to Democrat last month. "I've been a registered lifelong Republican. I've supported independent candidates and Democratic candidates in the state of Kentucky before, but this made it enough to switch parties," Kubancik said in an interview. "I don't feel the country is headed down the right path." While the stock market has bounced back from a brutal start to the year, thanks largely to the Trump administration pausing its most extreme tariffs announced in April, small retailers that rely on imports to stay afloat are stuck in no-man's land. Tariffs from China are still at a historically high rate of 30%, coming down at least temporarily from Trump's prior announcement of 145% after the two countries reached a 90-day truce on May 12. The big concern is what happens when that three-month agreement expires in August. Both countries have already accused each other of violating the preliminary trade agreement. Guardian Baseball sells its products on Amazon and in brick-and-mortar stores like Walmart. Even at a rate of 30% for goods from China, its costs are significantly higher than they were before Trump took office. Some small businesses have stopped ordering more inventory or are hitting pause on new product development while they wait to see how the situation evolves. Others have been forced to raise prices because they can no longer afford to digest higher import costs. The struggles faced by businesses like Guardian Baseball don't necessarily show up in the data. According to a survey of 270 business leaders released on Monday from Chief Executive Group, less than 30% of CEOs forecast either a mild or severe recession over the next six months. That's down from 46% who said the same in May and 62% in April. And a quarterly report published Tuesday from the National Federation of Independent Business showed that optimism increased slightly in May from April, though "uncertainty is still high among small business owners," NFIB Chief Economist Bill Dunkelberg said in the release. U.S. and Chinese officials late Tuesday concluded two days of trade talks in London. Under the preliminary agreement, the U.S. would apply 55% tariffs on Chinese goods, Trump said in a post on Truth Social. The full details of the agreement have yet to be released. Trump said the deal is subject to approval by his administration and China President Xi Jinping. "President Xi and I are going to work closely to open up China to American Trade," Trump wrote in a post. "This would be a great WIN for both countries!!!" Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told CNBC's "Money Movers" on Wednesday that U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports won't change from their current levels, even as a trade deal between Washington and Beijing has yet to be finalized. The White House didn't respond to a request for comment. Like Kubancik, Alfred Mai says his business has mostly been in wait-and-see mode during the trade dispute, despite the 90-day pause announced in May. Mai, co-founder of card game company ASM Games, said he grew increasingly worried last month as he thought about the "huge" inventory order he needed to place in time for the crucial holiday shopping period. He told his manufacturing partners to expedite production and speed shipments to the U.S. as fast as possible. "I have no idea what the situation will look like after the 90-day pause, so I would rather take a gut punch now than to potentially be wiped out in the future by a massive tariff increase," Mai said in an email. The order is slated to arrive just as the short-term agreement between the U.S. and China ends. But if rates increase before his shipment makes it stateside, Mai said he may not be able to afford the tax needed to take ownership of his "vital holiday inventory." Prices are going up regardless. With a tariff on China of 30%, Mai said he'll likely have to raise prices by 10% to 20% and hope that consumers are willing to pay. At Down Under Bedding, which is based just south of Toronto in Canada, Tony Sagar says "everything's on hold." Sagar's company sources some of its goose down pillows and duvets from China and is considering discontinuing some of its lower-margin items because it can no longer to afford to compete with cheaper rivals. "We've basically stopped any kind of importing or planning," Sagar said in an interview. Last month, Sagar said he was forced to refund a customer who purchased a $150 duvet but refused to pay $277 in additional tariff charges. He ran into the same issue last week after a shopper ordered a $595 duvet that came with a tariff bill of almost $1,200. Sagar said he now contacts "every single U.S. customer" after they place an order to make sure they're willing to pay extra duties. In addition to the China levy, the Trump administration placed a 25% tariff on goods from Canada. "Any time I hear that ding from Shopify, I have to worry about where the order is coming from," Sagar said. Greg Shugar, who operates multiple apparel businesses, said the problem with trying to plan for the future is that policy decisions are "all about Trump's ego." "If we understood the true motivation behind the administration we'd know where to go or what to do," said Shugar, co-owner of women's clothing company Carrie Amber Intimates and men's accessory maker Beau Ties Vermont. Shugar said Trump's shifting position on tariffs has left him paralyzed on whether or not to move production out of China. Last month, he joined a group of other small business owners at an event organized by the National Retail Federation, with a plan to bring their concerns to the White House. The group met with a representative from the Trump administration for about 30 minutes. Shugar said he left feeling more pessimistic about the tariff situation than before he walked in the door. "We're not going to eat a 30% tariff and neither is the consumer," Shugar said. "So there's actually no winners, there's only losers with these tariffs." After Walmart warned last month that it will have to raise prices, Trump told the retail giant to "eat the tariffs." Kubancik of Guardian Baseball said his company "got a big break" last year when it signed a deal with Walmart to put its products in 3,000 stores. Now he's delaying inventory orders from China and taking a more conservative approach to coming up with new products, because the company can't afford to take on added risk. "It felt like we finally made it as a brand," Kubancik said. "And now it feels like a plane nosediving."
