Amazon Deals of the Day: Get Your Back-to-School Schedule on Track for a Record Low
Amazon sells a vast array of products, with new ones arriving daily across many categories, including home essentials, tech and furniture. Lucky for us, the retail giant loves cutting prices as much as it loves adding new products. However, deciding which offers are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job, but we've done the heavy lifting, hand-picking the top markdowns from the bunch.
Today, we spotted the Skylight Calendar Max down to a new record low price, perfect for the back-to-school season. We also found a nice $100 discount on the Google Pixel 9A. Finally, we spotted Renpho's smart scale at over 40% off.
With the back-to-school season quickly approaching, our lives are starting to get super busy again. Keeping track of everything going on in life can be quite overwhelming, especially with multiple kids. Having a smart calendar can make a huge difference. One that we love is the Skylight Calendar Max.
The Skylight Calendar helps you keep track of your appointments, chores, meetings and more. You can color-code events either by type or by person so it's easy to follow. You can also add in things like weather and dinner plans to help plan your day. You can even keep track of meal plans. Plus with the Skylight app, you can easily check on things on your phone. Speaking of apps, it connects to your Google or Apple calendar for easy syncing.
A device this handy certainly doesn't come cheap. It retails for a whopping $620. But for a limited time you can score one for $570. It's still pricey but it's a new record low.
A lot of us are probably upgrading our phones for the new back-to-school season. But a recent survey we conducted found that 78% of back-to-school shoppers are worried about affording tech purchases. If you're among this group, you'll be happy to hear the already-affordable Google Pixel 9A is now down to a record low price. The 9A has a substantial battery life and uses the same Tensor G4 chipset as the rest of the Pixel 9 series. This phone also allows you to take advantage of Gemini AI features. It also has a gorgeous display with a 6.3-inch OLED screen and 2,700 nits of brightness. Plus it comes with 128 GB of storage.
This phone is more affordable than the rest of the Pixel 9 series with a starting price of $499. But today, you can get $100 off this price bringing it down to $399. Plus this price is valid for all the color options, so you can pick your favorite.
If you're someone who really prioritizes health and fitness, I'll probably find some sort of scale in your bathroom. I love using a smart scale since it can tell you more important metrics than just your weight. This scale from Renpho is a great choice as it's super simple an easy to use. It uses four sensors to give you an accurate reading in precise 0.2lb increments. It can also tell you your body fat percentage, muscle mass, body water, metabolic age and more. The data is stored on your phone so you can easily monitor progress.
This smart scale is pretty affordable with a list price of $35. But thanks to this 43% discount, you'll pay just $20. Although it's not the record low price, it's only $2 more. That makes this a pretty fantastic deal.
With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET has combed through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer, and we've gathered the best deals for you to check out.
