Some of these handy-dandy products are the cheapest they've ever been. Now's the time to buy, friends.
Amazon's Big Spring Sale is here! There are tons of deals, some better than others...so that's where we come in.
We waded through the mountains of bargains for you and found some of the best deals in every category.
FYI, sometimes deals move *fast*. We'll do our best to keep this post and imagery as up-to-date as possible, but we can't catch everything immediately. Check back throughout the day to see our latest updates as the deals change!
1. The ~Pet Deluxe~ edition of the famous Bissell Little Green upholstery cleaner for 32% off (a brand new lowest-ever price) — you may be shocked and awed by this machine's ability to suck up messes and restore furniture, carpets, and even car interiors to their former glory. It comes with three different attachments to tackle the toughest spots and odors — one reviewer says, " stains disappear like magic".
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review:"I don't think there is anything I DON'T like about this carpet cleaner. It's small and easy to move around, the cord is plenty long, the reservoirs are quick to empty and fill, and it made my 4-year-old furniture look brand new —despite our 10-year-old who is convinced that's where he's supposed to eat. Also, I had to replace a 10' entry runner that matches my living room rug and was worried you'd see the difference. After cleaning the one in the living room, you truly can not tell! I highly recommend...well worth the money!" — LJay
2. The TikTok-famous Mixsoon Bean Essence for 44% off (which brings it to its lowest price ever) — this K-beauty exfoliating rinse-off treatment won't leave you feeling dry and irritated afterward — if that's not magic, I don't know what is!!! The secret is the combination of fermented pomegranate (which acts as a natural chemical exfoliant to help get rid of flaky, dead skin) and fermented barley (which helps to hydrate and brighten).
Promising reviews: " I saw this all over TikTok/Instagram and decided to buy it because I have a lot of sebaceous filaments on my chin and nose. It's a little expensive but I took a gamble: it works! You can physically see the sebaceous filaments come out of your pores, it is not the product bunching up. My problem areas were so much smoother after using and are left with a moisturized glow. I then proceeded to have my boyfriend use this product to see of it worked this good on everyone on the first try and it worked on his nose as well. Amazing stuff. 🩷" — Losa
"I have hyperpigmentation and oily skin. I feel this product regulates my oil production and it helps my makeup look so flawless. 10/10." — MissKayMae
3. A high-velocity ionic Shark hair dryer for 20% off if your hair has suffered enough heat damage from previous dryers but you refuse to air dry because you might unleash a frizz monster. This won't cause heat damage to your hair because it never reaches or approaches hair-damaging temperatures. It's designed for wet-to-dry styling, dries super fast, and it won't make your hair frizzy!
You'll get different attachments based on your hair texture/SpeedStyle chosen.
Promising review:"LOVE IT! My hair holds onto water, even if I squeeze as much out before drying. I used to hate hair-washing days because of the drying process. It would take me almost 40–45 minutes to dry my mid-long hair. It's so much quieter than my older name-brand model. So much lighter, which for someone who is older and starting to have difficulty in holding a drying up in the air for long periods of time. I love the three setting options, but I typically use the 2/2 for the first 10 minutes of drying and then 1/2 for the straightening/drying process. My hair is less frizzy. Honestly, my hair looks so much healthier, softer, silkier. I also use the cool burst at the end. It now takes me about 20 minutes to dry my hair." — Grace
4. A 20-pack of vacuum storage bags for 42% off to give you back SO much storage space (at a new lowest price to date). Fill up a bag with clothes, towels, or other linens, suck out the air (a hand pump is included), and watch the pile shrink down to a fraction of its original size!
amazon.com
Promising review:"Great quality product! I ordered these bags for extra bedding we have taking up space in the bedroom closet. At first, I was skeptical about the hand pump that comes with it, but it's easy to use and works pretty fast! If you're looking for an effective storage solution for clothing, bedding, etc., this is an amazing value for the money spent. 10/10 recommend:)" — Hanna
5. A full-size NutriBullet blender for 29% off (which is the cheapest you can get it for!) so you can take advantage of all the amazing spring-y produce for sale at your local farmers' market. Get ready for all the smoothies, soups, sauces, and nut butters you're about to make with this three-speed gadget!
amazon.com
You'll get a 1200-watt motor base, a 64-ounce blender pitcher with lid and vented lid cap, a tamper, a 32-ounce cup, a 24-ounce handled cup, two to-go lids, an easy-twist extractor blade, and a recipe book.
Promising review:"I bought this to test after my Vitamix broke down and it is absolutely fantastic. Love the smoothie container it comes with. I haven't used it for anything else, but I do make smoothies daily and it blends everything — frozen berries, celery, kale. It's also quieter than most blenders I have tried. Highly recommended." — Pixie
6. The cult-fave Cosrx's snail mucin repairing essence for 36% off that may seem like it would give you the ick, but is totally worth adding to your routine. No snail-like results here: Just pat it in, and you'll be appreciating the moisture boost right away. Reviewers say it helps with acne, inflammation, peeling, fine lines, and more!
Promising review:"This product is everything everyone says it is and more. If I could recommend one product that is the key to glass skin, it would be this. It gives an immediate glow, and makes the skin look so supple and healthy. The texture wasn't off-puting for me, but it is a bit slimy and stringy when you first pump out the product. It absorbs pretty quickly and doesn't leave a sticky residue, and it is unscented. Can't say enough good things about this product and the brand. You need this product in your life!" — Sarah Deeb
7. A Furbo pet treat camera for 34% off that'll allow you to keep an eye on your pupper when you're not home. It has 2-way audio so you can tell Spot what a good boy he's being while you have Furbo toss him a treat. It'll even send push notifications to your phone when he's barking.
Promising review:"This has been a game-changer for me! Being able to check in on my dog while I'm away gives me such peace of mind. The rotating feature lets me see the whole room, and the night vision is surprisingly clear.
I really appreciate the barking alerts—it's nice to know when my pup is getting restless. The two-way speaker is a favorite; I can talk to my dog and even toss him treats from my phone, which he loves! The app is super easy to use, making it simple to keep an eye on him. Overall, this camera has made it so much easier to stay connected with my furry friend when I'm not home. Highly recommend it for any dog owner!" — Amber T White
8. A cordless stick vac for 33% off (this is the cheapest it goes for) that reviewers find comparable to the much more expensive Dyson...but for way less, especially on sale. It has built-in headlights to illuminate every speck of dust in your path, a fancy LED display, HEPA filter, and all the attachments you need to get the cleaning job done.
amazon.com
Promising review:"4-month use review. This vacuum is comparable to Dysons that are 2x-3x times time price. All attachments easily and securely snap together. Bright light on the head helps see dust and dirt on the floor. Suction is sufficient. Suction is aided by powerful rotating brush. I normally run it on max mode which lasts 15-25 minutes. The dust canister fills up pretty quickly, but it's easy to empty. Vacuum can charge while mounted; alternatively, battery can be removed and charged separately. No issues with brushes getting tangled so far." — Paul
Promising review:"A true workhorse. This little vacuum is a workhorse! I purchased this with a little apprehension because of the price point, but in my opinion this performs the same as, if not better, than the Shark or Dyson. Tremendous versatility, and powerful suction. I am able to vacuum my entire 3000 square foot home on a single charge at high speed. I love the ability to convert this to a hand-held as well, which I use often to clean my car. If you are on the fence here, don't be. This is well worth the money!" — kevin
9. Crest 3D Whitestrips for 35% off — they're about $2 more than they were for Cyber Week, but still an irresistible price if it's time to stock up. They have a no-slip design that'll mold to your teeth and help lighten those coffee and magic potion stains you thought would be there for a life. You'll get enough strips for 22 days of treatment, which should help your teeth get up to 20 levels whiter!
It comes with 44 strips total: enough for 20 regular treatments and two one-hour express treatments.
Promising review:"I haven't used Crest White Strips in over 5 years. Since then my teeth have stayed really white and I frequently get compliments or questions on how I get my teeth so white. I decided to get a box to boost the whiteness of my teeth. Wow, I was shocked on how much these have improved! Before the strips were really flimsy, hard to remove from the package and were really hard to keep on your teeth — the old ones would slip or bunch up. These are such an improvement! The new strips remove easily from the plastic they are on. The strips are REALLY adhesive! These will not budge! Since I've purchased I have only used about 4 times and I can already notice a difference. Other people have noticed too. I think these are well worth the money and work as good as a professional treatment, I have had friends who have done professional treatments and their teeth are not as white as mine. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a brighter/whiter smile!" — Vanessa5o5
10. A TikTok-approved, compact Levoit air purifier for 22% off with a true HEPA filter because dust, pollen, and pet dander can get you DOWN (and sneezy) — and make it look like you haven't cleaned in ages, when you totally dusted yesterday. This'll suck so much out of the air, you just might find yourself dusting less often! And it can help your home smell fresher, too.
amazon.com
Promising review:"I have two small dogs who shed year around. They are part of my family. Unfortunately for me, i have pet dander allergies. The first levoit purifier i bought was about four years ago, and it has run 24/7 on high speed for all that time. It's quiet and easy to maintain. Filters are reasonably priced. I recently bought two more of these, and I believe these are the best value you can get. please consider filter replacement cost, and durability of machine, when researching. this model is a absolute beast! I own other machines as well, and I wont mention the manufacture or how much i paid, because its shameful!! trust in this machine, you wont be disappointed." — trevin c morrison
11. Chi's Original Ceramic Flat Iron for a massive 61% off that more than 12,000 reviewers swear by — and it's down to its lowest price ever (it's also already flown up the bestsellers list — I'd add it to cart NOW). It promises even heat distribution and shiny, frizz-free strands, and it heat up to 392 degrees in mere seconds.
Looking for an easy curler instead? Check out Chi's popular Spin N Curl that's currently 52% off.
Promising review:"As a mom of three daughters, I can confidently say that the CHI Original Ceramic Flat Iron is a lifesaver in our household! The importance of a good straightener cannot be overstated — it can truly make or break our day. I've purchased many less expensive brands over the years, but they never work as well or last as long as this CHI flat iron. It heats up quickly, glides smoothly through hair without snagging, and delivers a sleek, professional finish every time. With three daughters, we deal with a variety of hair textures, and this flat iron works beautifully on all of them. Whether we're smoothing out thick, wavy hair or taming flyaways on fine hair, it gets the job done." — Laura B
12. A hover soccer ball for 47% off to take your little athlete's game to the next level — it's a futuristic gadget with bumpers so you and your kids can safely play with it indoors without destroying your home in the process! Definitely a must-have during the inevitable April showers that are just around the corner.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review:"Gotta rainy day outside? These are a lifesaver! So much fun for kids and adults! Works great indoors! Sizes are great for kids! Easy to use, just pop in batteries, flip it on, and let it go! Definitely a great value for the money! Would highly recommend and buy again!" — Jessica
13. A set of FIVE (!!!) of Blink outdoor security cameras for 50% off so you can watch over your yard with easy-to-install tech that's wire-free and connects with the Blink app on your phone.
Amazon
You get 1080p HD live view, infrared night vision, enhanced motion detection, and crisp two-way audio. Plus, the included AA lithium batteries offer up to two years of battery life!
Promising review:"These have been amazing. Really easy to set up, and the app is simple to use. A great option for home security. The video quality is superb and the motion detection can be set to only certain areas in the camera field! Perfect for our home and yard." — Brandon Griffin
14. A slim, 85-inch Samsung Frame TV for 42% off (its lowest price to date!)— if you don't want to waste wall space on a regular TV, this is a must. You can display classical paintings, photographs, and modern art with the click of a button on the anti-reflective matte screen. This 4K TV offers brilliant colors and bold details. You'll feel like you're actually in The Office.
Amazon
15. An Amazon Kindle Scribe for $80 off (its lowest price yet!) — this handy gadget isn't only perfect for reading on the go, but it also serves as a digital notebook! You can journal, sketch, and even import documents and take notes right on your PDFs.
Promising review:"I was hesitant to get the Scribe when it was first released, but took the plunge on this recent update and am glad I did. Of course the large screen is wonderful, especially for us older readers. What has really happily surprised me is the notes features. Writing on this is effortless, and the responsiveness is smooth as butter. I also own the latest generation iPad with the new pencil pro, but much prefer the writing experience on the Scribe. To me this is much closer to writing on paper, and I love the included variety of layouts for notes, from wide and narrow ruled pages, to dotted and bulleted and more. The AI features do require WiFi connection, but that's par for the course and not a limitation in my opinion. As for the AI performance, so far it's done a prefect job of translating my poor handwriting into neatly typed text. When reading, I find it much easier to use the pen to look up words and highlight text. The accuracy is much better than using my finger." — Lou1492
16. A sleek stainless steel Cuisinart ice cream maker for 29% off that'll effortlessly make you smooth, consistent, and tasty ice cream while you busy yourself with housework (aka Netflix marathons).
Promising review:"This has been a great addition to my kitchen. It's very easy to use, even for someone who's new to making ice cream at home. One of the features I appreciate most is how simple it is to clean after use — it doesn't require much effort at all. It's also worth mentioning that the machine is not noisy, which makes the experience more enjoyable. In just 25–30 minutes, it produces delicious ice cream with a smooth texture." — Yisel
17. Amika's Soulfood Nourishing Mask for 25% off, making it only 38 cents more than its lowest price ever on Amazon. This thick potion uses the power of sea buckthorn and jojoba seed oil to bring dry strands back to life in just 5-7 minutes.
According to the brand, this mask is suitable for all hair types ranging from 1-4c.
Promising review:"I use the Amika Soulfood Nourishing Mask every three days, and it's been a game-changer for my hair. After shampooing, I leave it on for about 10 minutes in the shower (after conditioner), and the results are amazing! My hair feels incredibly soft, looks super shiny, and just feels healthier overall. I've always loved Amika products, and this one did not disappoint. It smells great, doesn't weigh my hair down, and has made such a difference in the look and feel of my hair. Highly recommend!" — Sivia
18. A cordless DeWalt drill power tool combo kit for $80 off its typical price, complete with a drill, an impact driver, two batteries, a charger, AND a carrying case for it all. Reviewers say the tools are lightweight, easy and comfortable to hold, and make getting things done 10 times easier.
amazon.com
Promising review:"The DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit is fantastic! Both tools are powerful, lightweight, and easy to handle. The drill works smoothly through various materials, and the impact driver makes tightening bolts a breeze. The two included batteries last a long time and recharge quickly. P erfect for both DIYers and pros, this kit offers great value and performance. Highly recommend!" — mhm87
19. A sleek, open-top self-cleaning litter box for 37% off (the cheapest you can get it for outside of Cyber Week) that is super quiet and has an app that'll help you keep track of your cat's habits as well the box's litter levels so you know when it's time to add more. It'll also help you keep your home smell-free by enclosing waste in an odor-blocking bag with just a pull.
Promising review:"I cannot believe I waited so long to buy this. It has literally changed my life! I went with this one because I have two giant cats who do not like enclosed litter boxes, so the fact that this is open-topped made for a very easy transition for them. The app is great. We have to empty the bin every 5–6 days, and the amount we are saving on litter alone because of the self cleaning will easily make this pay for itself within a year. There is absolutely zero odor. I don't know how this magical contraption does it, but I would swear that Tinkerbell herself pixie-dusted it. My cats are happy, my nose is happy, I am happy. Don't wait another day to buy this gem!" — Natalie K
20. A Tempur-Pedic Memory Foam Symphony Pillow for 60% off that'll adapt to the shape of your head and neck for ultimate support and comfort. Plus, it has one side that is gently arched to better support back sleepers *and* on the other side is a flatter design for stomach and side sleepers
Amazon
21. A FlexiSpot electric standing desk for up to 35% off (its lowest price yet!) if you're ready to go all-in on that sit-to-stand life. With just the push of a button, it'll raise itself up — and since you can save up to four preset heights, you can literally hit the button, walk away to get a coffee refill, and come back to your desk all ready to go for a standing work sesh.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising reviews: "This desk is a lifesaver. It's sleek, solid, and lifts and lowers with ease. It will be the perfect addition to your workspace." — Rebecca Jeanette
"After assembling it, I am thrilled I chose this desk. With a press of a button, I can raise and lower it to appropriate heights for either comfortably sitting or standing (I'm 5'10"). The material itself is very sturdy. There are NO drawers, which, after 20 years of having the other home desk and having desks at work, I realized that drawers do nothing more than collect and store junk. Can't do that with this desk as this desk encourages minimalism and storing that junk somewhere else." — David Taylor
22. A single-serve Nespresso machine for 41% off so you can have a deliciously caffeinated beverage right at home. It can brew four different cup sizes, and it comes with a milk frother!
amazon.com
Promising review:"Switching from Keurig to Nespresso was absolutely life changing! The machine has a large water tank, and brews absolutely amazing coffee!" — Juan Camacho
Price: $159.99 (originally $269.95) and shop all Nespresso deals here
23. A 600-pack of premoistened lens wipes for 51% off (a new lowest-ever price) because those little cloths can just leave a smeary mess. These'll gently clean sunglasses, prescription glasses (even with antireflective coatings), camera lenses, binoculars — because you want to actually be able to...see out of them properly!
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review:"These Zeiss wipes are the real deal—they're not dry, and they do an amazing job cleaning glasses, phone screens, and anything else that attracts fingerprints. No streaks, no smudges, just clear vision every time. I've got these stashed all over the house because I have reading glasses in almost every room (I swear they multiply on their own). With 400 in the box, this stash should last me a while—unless my glasses decide to start attracting grease and fingerprints at record speed. If you wear glasses, own a phone, or just like things to be clean and smudge-free, these are a must-have! 🕶📱✨" — Chi Guy
Price: $18.11 (originally $36.99)
24. The better-than-ever Belif Moisturizing Bomb for 26% off (plus another 5% off when you clip the coupon!) — it has a new formula that adds peptides and ceramides to help improve skin elasticity and protect the skin's barrier. Oh, and did I mention it moisturizes for up to 48 hours?!
Amazon
Promising review: " Licensed esthetician review here! I LOVE this product!! I use it along with so many of my clients. If you've ever heard of or been told you needed a functional hydrator, this is it! It doesn't just sit on your skin. It actually soaks in and I can tell it's hydrating the second layer of skin unlike most moisturizers on the market. It has a softening effect on the skin. It feels very rich and thick, making it seem super luxurious." — Elyssa
Price: $26.60 (originally $38; also available in two other sizes) and shop all the Belif deals here
25. An under-desk treadmill for 17% off (PLUS an additional $20 off when you clip the coupon) so you can get in some steps at home while you're working or watching TV. It comes with a remote control so you can easily adjust the speed without needing to step off or bend down. And the brushless motor means quieter operation — reviewers agree they can use it during work calls without being a disturbance!
amazon.com
It has a max speed of 4 mph, a max weight capacity of 265 lbs, and a low-noise design. There's also a shock-absorbing deck and a high-performance cushioning pad to help reduce impact on the knees and ankles.
Promising review:"I absolutely love this treadmill! It's the perfect solution for getting in some light exercise while working at my desk. The motor is incredibly quiet – I can walk or jog while on calls or in meetings without any distractions. The treadmill is compact, portable, and easy to move around, making it ideal for small spaces. I can easily slide it under my desk or tuck it away when not in use. It's perfect for both walking and jogging, and the remote control is super convenient for adjusting speed and pausing without having to stop. I highly recommend this treadmill to anyone looking to incorporate more movement into their workday. It's quiet, efficient, and works beautifully for both home and office settings!" — Donette
Price: $121.99 (originally $171.84; don't forget to clip the $20 off coupon!)
26. A Dyson Hot + Cool air purifier for 25% off (just about the lowest price it goes for) that works all year long to help remove allergens and particles from the air and circulate warm or cool air, depending on the season.
Amazon
Promising review:"This is the best purchase we made all year. Lots of options for heat and cooling and its easy to operate. It reads the room and shares the air quality in real time. It doesnt happen often, but we've burned some items in the oven and needed to clear the toxic air. It worked great. I also like that it is very quiet. I can hear the wind coming out on higher fan settings but not the motor." — gtmj7265
Price: $399.95 (originally $529.99) and shop all the Dyson deals here
27. A pair of Beats Studio Pro headphones for 49% off (the cheapest they go for outside of Cyber Week) with noise-cancelling, personalized spacial audio, and up to *40* hours of battery life so you can enjoy immersive sound for hours and hours — without spending hundreds on similar headphones.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review:"My hair is on the "bigger" side, so headphones tend to become uncomfortable after an hour or two of usage. However, t hese are so comfortable and light that I often forget I've got them on. I'm by no means an expert on this topic, but the sound quality these headphones provide is unreal. When listening to my favorite songs, I pick up on background instruments I was previously unable to. It's just so amazing to be able to listen to music like this. The noise cancellation is also top tier. Even in a crowded room, nouse just disappears with the press of a button. Transparent mode works extremely well, too. I love being able to hold a conversation while still being able to hear my music. I HIGHLY recommend these headphones for anyone looking for a more budget-friendly alternative to more pricy competitors." — Shanae
Price: $179.95+ (originally $349.99; available in seven colors) — and shop all the Beats deals on Amazon here.
28. A Fitbit Inspire 3 for 30% off (the cheapest you can get it for!) when you wanna level up your fitness game without breaking the bank. It can help you get a better understanding of your overall health by tracking your heart rate, sleep, workouts, stress levels, and more! Plus, it comes with a 6-month trial of Fitbit Premium.
amazon.com
Promising review:"Amazing fitness tracker with so many features! I am absolutely loving my Fitbit Inspire 3! The stress management feature has been a game-changer for me, helping me stay on top of my mental health. The workout intensity tracking is also super accurate and motivating. I've been wearing it to bed and the sleep tracking has helped me identify patterns and improve my sleep quality. The 24/7 heart rate monitoring gives me peace of mind, and the Midnight Zen/Black design looks sleek and stylish. The included S and L bands are comfortable and easy to swap out. Overall, I'm so impressed with this device and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comprehensive fitness tracker!" — Yuda

29. A Ninja titanium ceramic nonstick cookware set for 25% off (the lowest price it goes for) so you can fully outfit your kitchen for less. It's oven safe (up to 550°!) and dishwasher safe, so whipping up and cleaning up dinner is easier than ever. And when used as directed, it has a 10-year nonstick guarantee...that's pretty darn impressive.
Amazon
Promising review:"My wife absolutely loves these pans. We have never had ceramic pans and we are very happy with them. We have only had them about 5 months but so far so good! Very well made." — Tim Sperry
Promising review:"Anytime you find Ninja cookware on discount buy it. I have Ninja products that I've had for 10 years that are still awesome. The sizes of the pots and pans are perfect. They are durable and dishwasher safe and amazing. Definitely worth the cost because they will last forever." — Kindle Customer
Price: $299.99 (originally $399.99)
30. A 25-pound tub of individually-wrapped pool sanitizing tablets for 27% off (its lowest price yet!) because swimming season is nigh and you'll want your pool to be clear and algae-free so you can cannonball dive in. You can use these chlorine tablets in floaters, feeders, or skimmer baskets.

Amazon.com (NasdaqGS:AMZN) To Invest US$10 Billion In North Carolina Data Center Expansion
experienced an 11% price increase over the past month, a significant move likely buoyed by its substantial $10 billion investment in North Carolina to enhance data center infrastructure for AI and cloud computing technologies. This business expansion complements broader market trends, which have shown modest overall increases with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite gaining 0.3%. Additionally, Amazon's renewable energy projects signal alignment with the escalating market focus on sustainability. Despite other developments and shareholder proposals during this period, the investment highlights the company's drive to strengthen its technology foothold, adding weight to its stock performance. Buy, Hold or Sell View our complete analysis and fair value estimate and you decide. Uncover the next big thing with financially sound penny stocks that balance risk and reward. The recent 11% rise in Amazon's share price reflects investor optimism around its $10 billion investment in North Carolina to bolster data center infrastructure. This aligns with Amazon's expansion strategy in AI and cloud computing, suggesting potential enhancements to operational efficiency and future earnings as AI integration within Amazon Web Services (AWS) matures. Such moves could positively influence revenue and margins, particularly as Amazon leverages AI technology for advertising and fulfillment network improvements. Over a three-year period, Amazon's total return, encompassing share price and dividends, stands at 71%, indicating strong long-term performance. Recent one-year comparisons show Amazon met the returns of the US Multiline Retail industry, which posted a 14.8% gain, demonstrating Amazon's ability to keep pace with sector trends despite broader market fluctuations. While analysts have set a consensus price target of US$239.33, this presents approximately a 22.7% upside from the current share price of US$185.01. The investment in North Carolina could drive future revenue growth and improve profit margins. However, realizing the full potential of this target will depend on achieving the expected earnings growth and managing risks like tariffs and competition. As such, investor sentiment and analyst confidence in Amazon's growth trajectory could continue to influence share price movements in relation to this target.

Act fast! Snag this killer Samsung OLED gaming monitor for $250 off
I've been buying and building gaming PCs since I was old enough to scrape the cash together, and for my money few things make a bigger difference in the PC gaming experience than a great OLED monitor. I go OLED everywhere I can afford it these days, but the problem is OLED panels cost more than standard IPS or VA displays. That's why I wanted to highlight this deal that knocks the 27-inch Samsung Odyssey G6 QD-OLED monitor down to $599 at Amazon. This model of Samsung's Odyssey G6 gaming monitor sports a 27-inch (2560 x 1440 pixels) 16:9 QD-OLED panel with a 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms response time. It also supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro to minimize screen tearing at high framerates, and comes with a 3-year warranty to boot. That's a sweet $200 discount on this 27-inch 1440p 240Hz OLED panel, making it a far more enticing purchase. While it's not the lowest price I've ever seen (it was $50 cheaper during Black Friday), I think it's the cheapest price you're going to get on this high-end display without waiting until the holidays. I think it's worth acting fast and snapping the Odyssey up while it's on sale because like I said, for my money upgrading to OLED is one of the most momentous gaming PC upgrades you can make. Plus, the 1440p resolution of this 27-inch display strikes a nice middle ground of looking better than 1080p without demanding the same high-powered PC you'd need to play the best PC games at 4K with high framerates. And the benefits don't stop at gaming. Since the Odyssey G6 supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) you get to take full advantage of that QD-OLED's striking contrasts and inky blacks when watching shows and movies that offer HDR content. Most modern games now offer HDR support as well, so you can count on a big visual boost if your current display is not HDR-capable. Ports-wise this Samsung Odyssey G6 sports a DisplayPort 1.4 jack as well as a pair of HDMI 2.2 ports, so you could plug in a PS5 or Xbox Series X and take full advantage of the console's advanced features while gaming on your monitor. That's why I believe Amazon's $200 discount on the Samsung Odyssey G6 makes it one of the the best PC gaming deals I've seen so far this month. If you're shopping for a deal on an OLED gaming monitor, this is a great one!

Walmart customers rage over this new security feature: ‘Waste of money'
Walmart is rolling out a new security initiative — and shoppers are not happy with the corporation's latest attempts at curtailing crime in store parking lots across the country. A customer in Bentonville, Ark., posted a TikTok video that captured the robot security guard patrolling the store's parking lot. Advertisement The now-viral video featured the TikTokker, Goldpinemusic, following the robot around the parking lot, asking it questions like 'What's your name?' Nearby shoppers appeared equally interested in the corporation's newest security guards, as evidenced by one woman in the video who was seen kneeling on the pavement to try to take a close-up photo of the roaming robot. The bizarre scene depicted in the video quickly amassed online attention and reeled in thousands of views and comments. Advertisement Amid the tariffs, rising prices, and supply chain disruptions affecting businesses across the country, Walmart has recently been under criticism by customers. 'We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible. But given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren't able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,' warned Walmart CEO Doug McMillon on a mid-May earnings call. This latest robot-related expansion, as seen in the TikTok video, only sparked further outrage. 'That's why the prices are gonna be going up,' said one viewer. 'Pricing fluctuations are a normal course of business and are influenced by a variety of factors,' a Walmart spokesperson previously told The Post.

'Walmart will do anything and everything to not pay somebody,' posted one user. 'We should have kept our local grocery stores in business,' another disgruntled commenter wrote.

Xinhua/Shutterstock Walmart originally began testing the efficacy of robots in select stores in 2015, when they were first used to stock and label shelves. In the years since, the company has continued to utilize new and improving technology in robotics, AI, and surveillance in an effort to modernize stores, keep up with competitors, and offer guests a positive shopping experience. In an effort to prevent and more efficiently report parking lot crime, Walmart began installing lot cops — tall solar-powered security towers manufactured by Live View Technologies — in parking lots in select states. 3 Lot cops aid in increased parking lot surveillance. Getty Images Though they're stationed in Walmart parking lots, the bulk of the surveillance footage captured by these Walmart lot cops goes to local law enforcement in the event of a criminal incident. 'The information is actionable, whether it's getting a license plate off a vehicle. All of that functionality is in the platform,' Live View Technologies Director of Business Development David Studdert told WHNT19. 'Mostly I see litter, [people] throw trash all over the place. I have some friends who experienced car break-ins, too,' Hawaii resident Makakilo Richard Suzuki told KHON2 regarding parking lot crime. Advertisement Much like lot cops, which solely serve as surveillance and crime deterrents, the Walmart robot security guards are intended to increase visibility in parking lots, and as many commenters suspect, are operated remotely by loss prevention staff working inside stores. While many users expressed displeasure at this costly surveillance expansion, others extended a degree of understanding toward Walmart. 'Definitely not the first of its kind,' one commenter wrote. 'The hospital my wife works at has had robots like this for the past five years.' For now, the Walmart robot security guards are only stationed at select locations across the country, but as commentators on the viral TikTok noted, perhaps this move is simply another potential recession indicator.
