Small enough to store, cheap enough to score — Instant Pot Pro is 41% off
Some people meditate, some people run marathons, and some people — me — make every shortcut possible in life.
The Instant Pot Pro is the kitchen equivalent of a personal chef who works for free (not me), never talks back (also not me), and doesn't make you feel bad for leaving your produce in the fridge too long (because it can actually turn it into something extraordinary). And right now, this culinary miracle is 41% off on Amazon.
If you've ever stood in your kitchen, hungry, indecisive, and two minutes away from ordering overpriced delivery, the Instant Pot Pro is the thing that breaks the cycle. It's a slow cooker, a pressure cooker, a rice maker, a steamer, a yogurt incubator — a stainless steel wizard. This particular 8-quart size is the sweet spot for big-batch cooking — enough room for soups that last all week, stews for the whole family, or just a personal stockpile so you can flex on your old meal-prep game.

The Instant Pot Pro (8 qt) is a multifunctional electric pressure cooker with 10-in-1 capabilities, including pressure cooking, slow cooking, sautéing, steaming, and yogurt making. It features a large capacity ideal for families or meal prepping, an easy-to-read digital display, and customizable cooking programs. With upgraded inner pot construction for even heat distribution and dishwasher-safe parts, cleanup is quick and painless.
The best part? It's one of those rare appliances that actually makes you want to cook. Hear me out: Toss in frozen chicken, a jar of salsa, and a whisper of whatever seasoning you have, and it somehow emerges as tender, flavorful magic in under 30 minutes. Or go full Julia Child and braise short ribs that taste like they've been babysat all day, but they were actually made while you answered a few emails.

U.S. stock futures inch higher ahead of inflation reports this week
U.S. stock-market futures advanced Sunday, as investors await a potentially tumultuous week. After wavering in early trading Sunday night, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures YM00 were last up around 100 points, or 0.2%. S&P 500 futures ES00 and Nasdaq-100 futures NQ00 also edged higher. The price of gold GC00 slipped more than 1%, while bitcoin BTCUSD neared the $120,000 level. Crude oil futures CL.1 declined.

After another record year at the MassMutual Center, Springfield's convention promoters look forward to more visitors
SPRINGFIELD — Rental and catering revenue at the MassMutual Convention Center increased by 17.7% year-over-year, the third straight year of growth, the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority said Thursday. Total food and beverage revenue at the center also hit a new high in the fiscal year that ended in June, up more than 9% from the previous year, the authority said in a news release without giving dollar figures for either. The convention center — not counting the arena — alone hosted more than 100 events and more than 100,000 attendees, according to the release. The regional economic impact was an estimated $56.7 million, including both the Convention Center and Arena. The arena is home of the American Hockey League's Springfield Thunderbirds. Growth is a sign that not only is the convention business recovering from a post-COVID doldrums but that meeting planners are choosing Springfield, said Alicia Szenda, vice president of sales for the Greater Springfield Convention and Visitors Bureau. COVID shut down conventions for years. Then, meeting organizers and convention bureaus spent the next few years rebooking those canceled conventions, scheduling them after the interruption so as not to lose the business. 'We are not 100% beyond that, but we are close,' Szenda said. Mary Kay Wydra, president of the Greater Springfield Convention and Visitors Bureau, said conventions have changed. There are shorter stays with fewer visitors. Budgets are tighter. Greater Springfield has been successful at drawing events, she said. That includes the 2025 Massachusetts Governor's Conference on Travel and Tourism back in March. The conference — focused this year on events and sites associated with the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution — was a chance for the Pioneer Valley to show off for tourism professionals across the state. And in the coming weeks, the MassMutual Center is set to host a toy show geared to retailers, a trade show for locksmiths and a military reunion. Fall is normally a busy time of year. The convention center and arena still bear the name of insurance giant MassMutual under an agreement that expired in 2023. But the Convention Center Authority has said it is in the process of selecting a new naming rights sponsor. The new $80 million replacement Civic Center Carpark opened this spring.

Ninja's viral Creami Swirl soft-serve maker just got its first-ever deal at $50 off
If you've spent any time on TikTok or wandered into the depths of CNN Underscored's reviews, you already know the Ninja Swirl by Creami is the kitchen gadget of the moment, churning out homemade ice cream, sorbet, frozen yogurt and more. The sister appliance to the popular Ninja Creami launched in February, with a waitlist in tow. While the buzz has calmed a little, shoppers may be running to snatch it up again now that it's on sale for the first time. Ninja Swirl by Creami Ice Cream and Soft-Serve Maker Since debuting in the spring, the Ninja Creami Swirl finally got its first-ever Amazon discount, bringing the ice cream maker down to the same retail price as its predecessor. Snag $50 off the appliance and make homemade frozen desserts from home. Read our review The Swirl comes with two pint slots instead of one, so you can churn up a matcha gelato and a chocolate protein shake simultaneously (or just prep ahead, so you can come home to a sweet treat). It also introduced a swirl function, so you can layer or combine flavors, much like a soft-serve machine. During testing, a CNN Underscored staffer created everything from a one-ingredient sorbet and a peach fruit whip to a cookie crumble milkshake. In its soft-serve form, she appreciated how similar it looked to something you'd buy at an ice cream shop, like Dairy Queen, but basically on tap. Normally priced at $350, the Ninja Swirl is a hefty spend to bring frozen treat making to your countertop. But if you're been waiting for the most opportune moment (aka a great kitchen deal) to take the plunge, today's the day. This $50-off Amazon discount brings a significant price drop on the small appliance for the first time in six months. As a bonus, a two-pack of additional pints is selling for $30 on Amazon at 33% off, so you can keep multiple treats on deck. Or, if you'd rather stick to the basics, the Ninja Creami is also on sale — for $200. We've been tracking the Ninja Creami Swirl from launch to review to sale. Our team, consisting of senior editor Rikka Altland, editor Jacqueline Saguin and associate editor Elena Matarazzo, is passionate about unearthing deals we would be tempted to shop. We enjoy finding a great discount on a coveted item, especially one that's a best-tested pick by our experts, because it means we're helping our readers make savvy buying decisions.
