Prime Day II: The Primening is next week. Here's a buying-strategy refresher PLUS: 5 excellent deals you can get right now and the shockingly inexpensive wearable AI assistant I think is a game-changer.

Now read this: An all-new Deal Secrets! open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

The travel issue: How to find cheap cruises and other vacations PLUS: How I single-handedly fixed a huge problem with digital photo frames, probably.

Get outta town, you! open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Traveling? This Baseus power bank for $11 is a stupid-good deal 3-in-1 charging, built-in USB-C cable, 2-year warranty... what more could you want?

For a measly $11, you can pocket a power bank that'll fully recharge your phone at least once. And it has a built-in cord! open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

I found two great ways to beat the Apple TV+ price increase PLUS: Earn 20% cash back at restaurants, own the entire Murderbot book series for $18, and more!

Say 'Howdy' to the cheapest streaming service ever: $2.99/month for ad-free viewing Roku's new service is interesting, but I'm most excited about a new $5 offering from Sling TV. PLUS: A 40-inch smart TV for just $100 and 7 ways to reduce food waste!

Roku takes a big step in the right direction. But don’t sleep on Sling TV’s big announcement, which is arguably even more significant. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

HOW?! This digital photo frame is just $20, and I'm here for it PLUS: A countertop ice maker for $49, a double-decker folding wagon for $74, and more!

The one Amazon Prime Day tip I beg you to follow Don't get taken in by artificially inflated prices and deeply misleading headlines.

I’ll spare you the standard Prime Day deals roundup; there are enough of those out there already. Instead, I’m hoping to help you avoid one of Amazon’s worst practices. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Open-ear headphones under $25? Yes, and they're surprisingly good These newfangled earbuds are catching on in a big way, and I've never seen a pair this cheap. PLUS: A 70-inch TV for just $330 and the best outdoor yard game you've never played.

This issue is PACKED with deals, I tell ya. Packed!

Loooved this book

Get a 3-pack of Wi-Fi leak detectors for just $33 These are awfully cheap protection against insanely expensive water-damage repairs. Mine caught a kitchen-sink leak I'd probably have missed otherwise.

Along with smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, I think every house, apartment, condo, etc. should have a set of these. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Flash deal: Sony's stupid-good noise-canceling headphones are just $47 right now (save $101) They're Sony-certified refurbished with a 2-year warranty -- in other words good as new.

Sometimes you just need to tune out the world. Sony’s often-overlooked WH-CH720N headphones have the same noise-canceling capabilities as the much pricier XM5 — and you can get a pair right now for just $47. Do. Not. Miss. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Was that headline stupidity, clickbait, or both? Either way, shame on you.

Flash deal: This AirTag alternative is just $9.99, the best deal I've ever seen Find missing items with Ugreen's Bluetooth tracker, which is fully compatible with Apple's Find My network.

Quite possibly the best 10 bucks you'll spend this year... open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

3 great Father's Day gifts: One for $10, one for $20, one for $40 I'm a dad and I approved these presents.

Warm off the presses: Deal Secrets, midweek edition! open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Twizzlers or Red Vines? (There's only one correct answer.)

The little quacking keychain duck that stole my heart (is just $6.99) What, grown-ups can't have toys, too?

I'm a child. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

I found the perfect pans -- and they're cheap Or, at least, they were; here's how to get them the next time they go on sale. PLUS: A $24 home-security camera? Yes, please.

If it's more than one, it's too many.

Why are we paying $12+ for cocktails when these $3 cans are freaking delicious? PLUS: Binge alert! Do NOT miss this Apple TV+ deal. Just $2.99 per month!

Most obvious PSA ever: Off-the-shelf booze is way cheaper than at bars and restaurants. But now you can get really good cocktails that way, too. open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Ex Machina... total banger. I'm overdue for a rewatch of that one!

Sleep secret: My favorite pillow of all time is $79 at Amazon but $38 here It's a Consumer Reports top pick, too. PLUS: The SwitchBot item tracker is down to just $12 (save $13).

A little pillow talk to start your weekend... open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

Maybe the best monitor deal I've ever seen It's an ultra-high-resolution 27-inch screen for just $93. PLUS: A $3 Disney/Hulu bundle and more!

Ready for a monitor upgrade? Do NOT miss this deal... open.substack.com/pub/dealsecr...

The classiest of class acts, right here. Oh, to have a government populated with nothing but Pete Buttigiegs (and @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social s). In fact, can we start campaigning now for Buttigieg/Jackson 2028?
