Amazon Deals of the Day: Take 35% Off This Already Affordable and Portable Anker Speaker
Amazon sells a vast array of products, with new ones arriving daily across many categories, including home essentials, tech gear and furniture. As much as the retail giant loves adding new products, Amazon also loves cutting prices. Deciding which offers are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job -- our job, specifically. That's why we scope out the top deals for you.
Today, we found the Anker Soundcore 2 speaker for over 30% off. We also found the Bostitch electric pencil sharpener for almost half off, perfect for back to school. And finally, we spotted the KitchenAid Artisan stand mixer for a nice $120 off.
Having a portable speaker can make a world of difference, especially during the summer. Whether you're going to the beach, having a cookout or even just doing chores at home, it's always more fun with some music. Anker's SoundCore 2 is a popular mini Bluetooth speaker, and loved by many at CNET. The Anker SoundCore 2 gives you better than average sound, is water-resistant and has strong battery life of up to 24 hours. There's also a built-in microphone for speakerphone calls. It also has a pretty good range of up to 66 feet, so you don't necessarily have to move it from room to room to stay connected.
This speaker is normally listed at $45, which is already an affordable price for a solid Bluetooth speaker. But right now, Prime members can score one for just $29, a nice 35% discount or $16 savings. Keep in mind, this deal is only for the black color and only available to Prime members.
Unfortunately for many, back-to-school season is already on the horizon. Even though most schools use iPads and laptops for the majority of things, it doesn't mean we're done with pencils completely. Whether you're a teacher or a student, having a pencil sharpener is very handy. And one that's electric is a real game changer. Bostitch electric pencil sharpener is compact enough to fit on your desk. It's made with an HHC cutter, giving you four times longer cutting life sharpening. There's also a safety switch for those working with younger students. Plus the shavings tray is pretty big, so you don't have to constantly clean it out.
This pencil sharpener is usually priced at $20. But this almost half-off discount saves you $9, brining the price to just $11. It's the perfect back-to-school addition, and it's at a record-low price right now.
No kitchen is complete without a stand mixer. There are tons of options out there but our top pick stand mixer of 2025 is the KitchenAid Artisan Series 5-quart tilt head stand mixer. It has 10 settings that you can pick from based on what your needs are. It can hold five-quarts of ingredients, perfect for making a large quantity.
