The deluxe Scott Pilgrim graphic novel box set is cheaper than ever

The Verge27-05-2025

The price of the excellent 20th anniversary collection of Scott Pilgrim graphic novels is only going in one direction: down — way down. That's good news for anyone who's looking for an affordable way to get every installment, whether you first got into the series through the 2010 live-action movie, the stellar animated series on Netflix, or thanks to the Streets of Rage -inspired video game.
The graphic novels come in a box that's doused in PlayStation Portable aesthetic, and they're available in color or black and white for roughly the same price at Amazon. Normally $249.99, either set costs about $98. It'll make a great gift to yourself, a pal, or with Father's Day coming up, some Dads might enjoy it, too.
Other notable deals and discounts
How much should a company charge for a last-gen product compared to the current generation? If your answer was 'less than half,' then the current price for the Google Pixel Watch 2 at Amazon will seem just about perfect. You can snag a Wi-Fi model for $149.99 in the champagne gold color scheme (which looks less gold than you might imagine). This price is less than half the cost of the Pixel Watch 3, making it a smart gadget to buy if you're dipping a toe into the world of smartwatches. While it lacks the brighter screen, better battery life, and more exhaustive list of workout features in the Pixel Watch 3, the second iteration is still a great gadget. Read our review of the Pixel Watch 2.
If you're strongly considering a PS5 or PS5 Pro in light of Sony's recent comments that it may move to raise costs due to tariffs, do not buy anything today. Wait just one day, as starting on May 28th, you'll be able to save on PS5 console bundles, and get the first-ever deal on the PS5 Pro ($50 off). Not only that, there will be a nice price drop on the already-discounted PSVR 2 VR headset, and on other hardware. You can read more details regarding the Days of Play deals here, which will last through June 11th.

Amazon Fresh doubles down on discounts

Amazon Fresh seems to have seized on a simple strategy to bring shoppers into its supermarkets: Charge less than the competition for a broad assortment of foods - and make sure customers know about it. During visits to three of the supermarket chain's locations on the East and West coasts in May, Grocery Dive journalists observed an abundance of bright red low-price signs inside and outside stores. They also found that prices for a number of common, brand name items were sharply lower than what nearby stores charged for identical items. For example, an Amazon Fresh store in Bellevue, Washington, charged $3.49 for an 8-ounce tub of Philadelphia cream cheese when a reporter visited on May 27, while a Kroger-owned QFC across the street asked $4.99 for the same product. The same Amazon Fresh store charged $6.99 for a 12-pack of Pepsi cans, compared with $10.99 for that size package of the soft drink at QFC. Produce prices at Amazon Fresh were also strikingly low. The grocer's store in Alexandria, Virginia, beckoned customers on May 29 with 1-pound packages of strawberries for $1.89 each, while a Giant Food store a five-minute drive away charged $3.79 for the same size package of the popular fruit (or $4.99 for shoppers who don't belong to the Ahold Delhaize banner's loyalty program). The Amazon Fresh location in Gaithersburg, Maryland, was also replete in May with items sporting prices that were below what nearby competitors charged. Amazon Fresh has gone all out to ensure that shoppers know they will find bargains in its stores. The chain's locations that Grocery Dive visited are decked out with signs proclaiming, "Low prices. Every aisle. Every day." Other signs remind shoppers that the bargains are "here to stay." Signs outside point out that shoppers do not need to belong to Amazon Prime to take advantage of the savings - although people can return Amazon packages during their visit. The intense focus on low prices at Amazon Fresh stores of late underscores Amazon's pricing heft. It also reflects an evolving quest by the company to carve a niche for itself in the crowded traditional supermarket space. "As part of our focus on offering customers low, competitive prices to save money every day, we work to meet or beat competitor prices across the vast selection of products in our stores," Amazon spokesperson Molly McWhinnie said in an emailed statement. Nearly three years after opening its first Amazon Fresh store in August 2020, Amazon paused the chain's expansion after concluding that its initial approach was not resonating with shoppers. Less than a year later, it unveiled a new store design with updated signage and a larger array of products. While Amazon formerly used its Fresh stores as showcases for its Just Walk Out automated checkout technology, it has since taken that gear out and shifted its focus to its Dash Cart smart carts.

Cool Jazz back at Yankee Stadium as Chisholm's homer sparks New York to 3-2 win over Cleveland

NEW YORK — The New York Yankees had been missing their cool Jazz. Sidelined since April 29 by a strained right oblique, Jazz Chisholm Jr. drove Tanner Bibee's first pitch of the seventh inning toward the right-center stands. He shuffled up the first-base line, holding his bat, convinced it was a tiebreaking home run. And it was, barely, caught by a fan in the first row, 358 feet from home plate. 'Our hitting coach told me a story about Reggie Jackson,' Chisholm said after the 3-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians. 'He hit a homer that barely went over the fence. And he was like, `Hey, Reggie, how did you know that was gone?' And he's like, `Well, I hit 567 (actually 563) of them.' So I told my coach, my story is that I've hit 1,000 homers in my dreams, so I had to know that one was gone, right?' Chisholm went 2 for 3, also blooping a fifth-inning single for the Yankees' first hit and scoring on DJ LeMahieu's single. Anthony Volpe went deep six pitches after Chisholm, giving New York back-to-back homers for the fifth time this season. 'Honestly, I pictured a 3 for 3, but I'd take a 2 for 3,' Chisholm said. He returned to third base, his position with the Yankees last year, after making 29 starts at second through April 29, when he got hurt at Baltimore. New York manager Aaron Boone decided to leave LeMahieu at second, where he's started since coming back from a spring training calf injury on May 13. Chisholm didn't complain about the position switch and gushed: 'This is my favorite organization I've ever been a part of.' 'I just want to win. I want a ring,' Chisholm said. 'You got (Aaron) Judge. You got Volpe, and they come and talk to you and when you have such a good relationship with the manager, I mean, you don't mind doing anything for a guy that you have a good friendship with.' An All-Star with Miami in 2022, the 27-year-old played middle infield for the Marlins from 2020-22, was moved to center field from 2023-24, then inserted at third when the Yankees acquired him in a trade last July 27. 'Everyone's really pumped for him and happy for us that he's back helping us,' Volpe said. 'He's just so smooth and has such a great arm that you can play wherever you want to play with him over there.' Wearing a baby blue, 11 1/2-inch glove from his own company, Absolutely Ridiculous Innovation for Athletes (ARIA), Chisholm grabbed Ángel Martínez's grounder down the line in the third and made a strong one-hop throw to first from foul territory for an inning-ending out. The glove is intended to be used for Father's Day on June 15 and Chisholm started to break it in during three rehab games at Double-A Somerset. 'Sometimes you catch the ball over there at third base and you look at the first baseman and you're like, wow, he's pretty far,' Chisholm said. He is batting just .194 with eight homers and 18 RBIs. But in addition to his bat and glove, Chisholm adds a vivacious personality. 'Really excited to have him back and good to see him have that kind of impact right away,' Boone said. Devin Williams, back as closer after Luke Weaver strained a hamstring, allowed Carlos Santana's one-out double and pinch-hitter Daniel Schneemann's two-out RBI single in the ninth, then retired Bo Naylor on a flyout for his sixth save as AL East-leading New York won for the 11th time in 14 games. During spring training, Boone and the Yankees talked of Chisholm combining with Volpe, the third-year shortstop, on an exiting double-play combination. 'I really thought I was done at third base,' Chisholm said. 'I thought I left my career over there with a good stamp, but I guess we're back again. We got to shine again. We can't let that reputation go down at third base.'
