Our favorite Yeti coolers and tumblers just went on sale in tons of colors
May all your camping and seaside adventures be accompanied by trusty outdoor gear from Yeti. In time for the rising temperatures, Amazon has dropped prices on dozens of Yeti coolers and water bottles. Stash cold ones or fishing bait in sturdy, hard coolers, then fill up stainless steel tumblers with ice-cold water to stay hydrated in the summer heat. Spanning everything from the Tundra and the Rambler collections, I scrolled through the batch of Yeti deals and rounded up some of our favorites, including picks tested by our experts, below. Yeti Roadie 24 Hard Cooler Narrow enough to fit behind car seats, the Yeti Road 24 makes a great mid-sized companion for road trips. CNN Underscored testing experts appreciated its heavy-duty handle, which makes it easy to haul around as many as 33 cans, sans the ice. Amazon has it on sale in Wild Vine Red and Key Lime colors. Yeti 42-Ounce Rambler Straw Mug Slotting right into car cupholders, this Rambler with an easy-access straw lid is a no-brainer for constant hydration. One editor loved its durable, stainless steel construction that helps keep water cool for hours. It comes in an on-sale Wild Vine Red and Key Lime. Read our review Yeti Tundra 35 Cooler in Wild Vine Red The 35-liter capacity of our best-tested hard cooler is discounted in this punchy Wild Vine Red hue. Yeti's Tundra line includes solid, heavy-duty coolers built to last. Our outdoors, sustainable living and pets editor, Kai Burkhardt, has had his Yeti Tundra for more than five years, using it on camping and road trips frequently. Yeti 30-Ounce Rambler Tumbler Holding up to a bit more rough and tumble, this 30-ounce Rambler features a sliding magnet lid top to prevent spillage while on the move. Choose from limited-edition colors like King Crab as well as Cosmic Lilac, Wild Vine Red and Key Lime — all 20% off. Yeti Hopper M20 Backpack Soft Cooler Forego lugging around too much bulk with this nifty backpack cooler. Great for hauling on hikes, its soft, padded shoulder straps lend a more comfortable wear, according to our pros. It also has a sturdy bottom and rugged design. Take your pick of the discounted Cosmic Lilac and the Wild Vine Red designs. Yeti Hopper Flip 8 Portable Soft Cooler in Key Lime For a frills-free option that carries food for two, opt for this lightweight, soft cooler. Comfortably alternate between its carrying strap and handle as you trek to the beach or picnic. The 2.5-liter cooler holds a great deal and touts a waterproof, abrasion-resistant shell. Yeti Rambler Beverage Bucket Hosts throwing a backyard BBQ or boat-goers who want a refreshing beverage will appreciate this bucket and its ability to hold about six cans or three wine bottles. It features a rubber handle to make toting less of a chore. Score it on sale in King Crab, Cosmic Lilac and Key Lime. Yeti Hopper M15 Tote Your grocery runs just got much easier (and stylish). Available in Sandstone Pink and Big Wave Blue, the Hopper M15 Tote features foam insulation to keep items cold. It also has an exterior kangaroo pocket to stash and grab keys, phones and wallets. Yeti Rambler Stackable Cups, Set of 2 For early mornings spent sipping coffee or raising a toast while camping, these cups come in clutch. Their stackable design makes them easy to pack up and stow away. Stock up on drinkware while sets are just $24 in Key Lime and Wild Vine Red. Yeti Boomer 8 Dog Bowl in Key Lime Bring your pup on the road and give them the same top-tier drinking experience you'd get from your Yeti Rambler. This dog bowl is made with stainless steel and comes complete with a rubber bottom to keep it from slipping around as they lap up water. With Prime Day on the horizon, CNN Underscored deals editors are religiously tracking any early deals that might be trickling out of the July savings event. Our sleuths spotted a treasure trove of Yeti deals already live. Steady 20% discounts arrived on the Yeti Key Lime collection last month, and those sales have since expanded to include more colors, making great giftables or splurge-worthy buys. We've been covering deals for decades and have plenty of experience saving our readers money, and advocating for buyers is what we're all about. Our deals editor, Jacqueline Saguin, and the rest of the deals team work hard to ensure we're only recommending the best prices on the best products to get the most bang for your buck. Saguin curated a list of the best Yeti drinkware on sale, including top-tested picks that our experts love for their performance.

JetBlue to Implement Further Cost Cuts Amid Soft Travel Demand, Report Says
JetBlue Airways (JBLU) CEO Joanna Geraghty wrote in a memo that the struggling carrier will be further cutting unprofitable routes among other cost-cutting measures amid weak travel demand, a report said. According to CNBC, which said it obtained a copy of the memo dated Monday, Geraghty wrote to staff that JetBlue is "hopeful demand and bookings will rebound, but even a recovery won't fully offset the ground we've lost this year and our path back to profitability will take longer than we'd hoped. That means we're still relying on borrowed cash to keep the airline running." JetBlue did not immediately respond to an Investopedia request for comment. Shares of JetBlue have lost more than 40% of their value this year, including a 3% drop to $4.42 in recent trading Tuesday. They were trading at more than $20 four years ago but have declined since, with the carrier experiencing setbacks including the end of its Northeast Alliance with American Airlines (AAL) in 2023 and a failed merger attempt with Spirit Airlines last year. Last month, JetBlue and and United Airlines (UAL) on Thursday announced a new collaboration called "Blue Sky" that would allow for reciprocal loyalty program benefits like priority boarding and complimentary access to preferred seats.
