Amazon Prime Day can be overwhelming and intimidating – I mean, how do you know which deal is truly worth your while?
With inflation off the charts, households – including our own – are being more critical about their purchases. As with food and your health, I want to help you be confident in the decisions you make when spending money. So, I personally scoured through the Amazon deals from July 12 to 13 and compiled this list of can’t miss deals during this two-day sale. Some of these deals are already live now and have limited redemption times, so be sure to check back here frequently!
Here’s what I looked for in each of the following products:
Last thing before we get into all these sales, you will need a Prime membership to actually take advantage of these deals. You can sign up for $7.49/month. If nothing else, the free 1-2 day shipping is worth that amount!
Okay, ON TO THE DEALS!
As an Amazon affiliate, I may earn commission from qualifying purchases if you use the links below. This does not affect how much you spend.
Check out this five-speed blender with large jar and two 16-ounce blender cups! You see smoothies, I see the possibility for homemade popsicles, veggie-infused sauce, summertime gazpacho, baby teething cubes, and even dog treats! If you aren’t sure how to build balanced smoothies, check out my recent IG post on building a better shake! Oh, and if a blender is too bulky for your space, you can also check out an immersion blender (29% off).
Okay but seriously, could you get more bang for your buck with this purchase!? This 10-in-1 countertop oven comes in an amazing black matte stainless steel color. PLUS, it’s already 30% off and there is an extra $15 off coupon!
If you are a caregiver for someone with dementia, consider taking advantage of these red plate sales. Researchers at Boston University found that individuals who ate from red plates consumed about 25% more food than those eating from white plates. At nearly half off, this more subtle dinnerware set can make meal time more enjoyable and help promote intake.
Sometimes plain water just doesn’t cut it, but hydration is important! Maybe you need to add some flavor with fresh fruit, cucumber slices, herbs or stevia-based water enhancers. Or perhaps you just need something bubbly!
Check out this DrinkMate Sparkling Water and Soda Maker, which is 20% off during Prime Days. You can use this to carbonate water, juice, iced tea or coffee, wine and cocktails!
What a cool addition to your home bartending kit (44% off) and cocktail cart (29% off plus additional $9.84 coupon).
Notice I said “movement area” and not gym? If you’ve been following for a while, you know I focus on joyful movement more than rigid fitness in a gym. Why? Because if we don’t enjoy what we’re doing, it can be hard to keep up with. You might feel the pressure to follow the status quo and join a gym, but if hiking brings you joy and a gym does not – DEFY those rules!
Recovery is just as important as movement – ask any fitness professional!
I love this massage gun (17% off!) option for several reasons:
I love this Sony bluetooth speaker for several reasons. One, it matches the Defy Nutrition brand mighty well, but more importantly, it has 4.5 stars with over 7,300 reviews. It is compact, lightweight, portable, and can be used outdoors. So whether your joyful movement is dancing, hiking, gardening, boxing, or swimming, you can take it anywhere! Plus, it’s 20% off which brings this high quality speaker to under $50!
P.S. If you don’t want a speaker, check out the Apple AirPods Pro, which are 20% off!
If dumbbells are part of your joyful movement regimen, check out this adjustable set from Bowflex that’s 22% off (bringing the price down a whoppin’ $120!).
Why I love it: As a military family, we move often and space is a commodity we don’t always have. With this set, you could use as little as 5 pounds and as much as 52.5 pounds per dumbbell! Also, for my ladies who may get intimidated by their spouse’s strength (like I sometimes do), this is a great way to have versatile strength training equipment that the whole family can use.
Even though this isn’t on Amazon, if you are in the market for a new hybrid mattress, you MUST check out the Layla mattress. This is a special $160+ off coupon for the Layla mattress (not related to Prime Day!), which I can personally vouch for its comfort. We paired the memory foam hybrid with an ergonomic adjustable bed frame that even has gentle head and foot massagers to help you relax after a long day! Plus the remote has pre-programmed positions, including the Zero Gravity position invented by NASA to help astronauts during take off.
Oh, and even though this isn’t a Prime Day deal, you must invest in this down comforter. We received it as a wedding gift (thanks, Holly and Stephen!) and oh my goodness does our bed feel like heaven!
Remember how we talked about lack of sleep and how it can lead us to craving high fat, high sugar foods?
When we are too hot (or too cold!) at night, we don’t sleep as well. For this reason, bamboo sheets (39% off) can be an awesome purchase. This sheet set has 4.5 stars and over 158,000 reviews!
This isn’t a Prime Day deal, but I have to share because it’s been a game changer for my sleep routine.
Pura is a fragrance diffuser that utilizes essential oils. It holds up to 2 fragrances at a time and is connected to an app. I’ll admit – at first, I wasn’t a fan of needing an app to use the diffuser. But, it’s actually been incredibly beneficial. I scheduled a relaxing scent for nighttime (about an hour before bed) and a bright, invigorating scent for the morning (about 15 minutes before I wake up).
A study of 1611 women found that those raised in neighborhoods perceived as unsafe could be at risk for disordered sleep as adults. Having a video doorbell can give you peace of mind to sleep better. The Ring Video Doorbell is 25% off for Prime Day. You can also get their 8-piece set for $100 off during Prime Day deals. Together, instead of spending about $350, you would only be spending $225! That’s quite a deal. If personal safety means better sleep, and better sleep means fewer cravings for high fat, high sugar foods, I’m all for it!
If you have kids, dogs, or are just a human being who wants to clean up their spills, check out the Hoover CleanSlate cleaner. At 21% off, this deal is worth it to me. Not to mention it’s portable and has several attachments to help you find the best fit for your needs! Pro tip from my own experience: make sure you vacuum first, especially if you have dogs that shed a lot like we do! This Bissell multiclean vacuum is 28% off for Prime Day and a portion of Bissell proceeds go to help saving homeless pets. Or you could go for a serious upgrade, like the $100 off Shark self-emptying vacuum (which we have and LOVE!)
Bear with me, because I know this one is more expensive, but having an air purifier in our house has been an absolute game changer! We were first gifted an air purifier when we moved into a newly built house. Whether or not you realize it, there was SO MUCH more dust coming out of the vents than we could have ever imagined. This Molekule air purifier has 4.2 stars and is $450 off during Prime Days. Plus, you have the option for 12 interest-free, monthly payments to make it easier on your wallet. If you have less square footage and need a smaller one, check out the Bissell MYair purifier, which is 29% off.
Pair the purifier with a mist humidifier – especially if you live in a dry climate like we do! This LEVOIT ultrasonic cool mist humidifier is 27% off plus you can apply a $5 coupon.
COSORI Electric Kettle with Stainless Steel Filter and Inner Lid – 14% off
Hydro Flask Wide Mouth Bottle with Flex Cap – 39% off
Stainless Steel Blender Bottle – 20% off
Wire Storage Baskets (perfect for pantry organization!) – 36% off
TriggerPoint GRID Foam Roller (travel size) – 20% off
Double Bike Leaning Floor Stand – 46% off
Shark HE601 Air Purifier – 49% off
Casper Sleep Pillow – 35% off
Furbo 360° Dog Camera with Treat Tossing – 30% off
