Act Fast to Get the PlayStation 5 Pro With It's First Proper Discount at $51 Off
While Memorial Day deals might be slowly fizzling out now, that doesn't mean there are more deals popping up still. The biggest one of these, at least for gamers, is Sony's Days of Play event, which is back once again to help players save a bit of money on PlayStation consoles, games and more.
Well, thanks to that event, you can currently get your hands on the mighty PlayStation 5 Pro with it's first proper discount at $51 off. That's 7% off, and while not a massive discount, is a discount, and could let you spend that saved money on a new game or something.
The PlayStation 5 Pro allows you to play through the immense library of excellent PS5 games that are already out there, along with any upcoming. However, it's a fair bit more powerful than the standard PS5 model. It not only boasts a more powerful GPU, so everything looks better, but it's also faster, and also adds another 1TB to the SSD. All of this means a much smoother and far better-looking experience when gaming.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
The best thing to do alongside this is just to nab the best PS Plus deals as well. These will allow you to save a bit of money on the subscription that gets you free games every month, but also unlocks some special discounts as well.
Why this deal matters
PlayStation deals just don't come around all that often, so any discount is often worth paying attention to. This is also the first proper deal we've seen on the more recent PS5 Pro, so it's definitely one to make the most of if you're looking to upgrade.

Trump's new crypto business is a religion
You could hardly expect President Donald Trump to hear about something called an 'infinite money glitch' and not want to try it. Eric Trump announced at a crypto conference in Las Vegas this week that the family business is raising $2.5 billion from investors for its latest crypto project: a 'bitcoin treasury.' (Company executives had denied the plan just days earlier, when they called the Financial Times reporters who broke the story 'dumb writers listening to even dumber sources.')

Disney Plus' new ‘Perks' pile on discounts and other bonuses
Disney Plus and Hulu are both launching new Perks programs that offer subscribers discounts, digital freebies, and sweepstakes in an effort to stand out from the streaming competition. The Disney Plus Perks program is available now in the US, with an international rollout planned later this year. Offers include a six-month DashPass membership from DoorDash, discounted stays at Walt Disney World, and savings when you shop from Adidas or Funko, along with rotating contests. Hulu is launching its own loyalty scheme on June 2nd. Details on that are still to come, but it will include offers from companies including Microsoft, Pure Green, and LG, with new perks dropping weekly over the summer. To take advantage of the perks you simply have to be a subscriber to either streaming service, and you'll get access to both programs if you subscribe to one of the company's Disney Plus and Hulu bundle plans.

10 Gifts That Scream Summer Camp Nostalgia
In this edition of The Gift, we've found some gifts that channel cool, retro-summer camp vibes. Plus: a super-light camping chair we love and some throwback soccer shorts. I didn't go to traditional sleepaway camp as a kid. My dad was a professor at a local university and had summers off to hang. He was also fixated on me becoming a pro women's basketball player — about 25 years too early — so the only camp he'd pony up for was a weeklong basketball intensive. There were no s'mores, no archery, no bonfires. Just defensive drills, one-on-ones, and plenty of footfires. All of which partially explains why I have such imagined nostalgia for real summer camp. Label my clothes! Assign me a cabin! And please, please teach me to make a lanyard. I think a lot of us carry this fantasy for an imagined summer escape. Some of it, no doubt, comes from culture, too. Blame it on Meatballs, Salute Your Shorts, or The Parent Trap, but every year as Memorial Day passes, I find myself lusting after pine trees, cabin stays, singalongs, and lakeside lounging. And adding a few finds to my life that have a certain vintage summer vibe to them tends to scratch this itch. It makes me feel a bit like I'm the main character in an idyllic, camp-y movie — with plenty of warm months ahead of me to enjoy. So it's with confidence that I say no matter where you're traveling or staying this summer, infusing a little camp vibes into your gifting — for others or yourself — will be much appreciated. A few ideas: A few years back I got a Hometown Apparel sweatshirt screenprinted with the name of a beloved local lake. It's now my summer uniform. If you're visiting someone at a cottage or cabin, a hoodie with the name of the town would make a thoughtful, cozy houseguest gift. (You can find any town on the site. Prove me wrong!) These extremely cozy modern striped tube socks also have that '70s camp uniform feel. A great group gift for a friend trip. You needn't be sipping powdered lemonade in the mess hall to appreciate this classic enamelware pitcher. If I really get my act together, I'll bring one with flowers in it when I visit a friend in his Hamptons' rental this summer. I'm also smitten with these splatterware tumblers, which could work as vessels for juleps or spritzers (and toothbrushes in the off season). No summer camp would be complete without nature walks and arts and crafts. During the pandemic lockdowns, I gave a friend one of these grown-up tie-dye kits, which comes with a shibori tutorial and all the fixings, (a silk handkerchief, plant-based dye). Meanwhile, kids might have a lot of fun with these animal print stamps, while their grown-ups enjoy these pocket-sized nature study guides. The guides are less than $10 apiece and would be great on the coffee table of any summer retreat. (The scat finder one is a real crowdpleaser.) As for letters home, shouldn't we all have a set of these Sakura Cray-Pas Japanese pastels and a pad of postcards? Store-bought postcards are nice, but homemade ones are even better, and those smudgy oil pastels make it easy to succeed with more abstract interpretations of one's surroundings. Both gifts take up next-to-zero room in an overnight bag — er, trunk. I'll leave you with this fancy s'mores kit courtesy of Recchiuti, makers of one of our favorite boxed chocolates. The shipping charges almost double the cost, but that one singular bite of melty, marshmallow-y goodness — under the stars or over your stove's pilot light — will be a slam dunk.
