1. 25% off: These compact earbuds
In our experiences with wireless headphones and earbuds, we've been wowed by Jabra many times, and right now, the Elite 75t earbuds are on sale for $112.99. This true wireless set usually costs $149.99, but Amazon has the gold pair on sale at a $37 discount. We've tested the super-similar, water-resistant Elite Active 75t ($149.99), and found them to be the best headphones for running or gym visits thanks to a design that's both sleek and durable along with a plethora of add-ons (including a finder function to keep track of the buds and transparency mode that helps you stay aware of surrounding elements). This model is slightly less rugged and features lower water resistance than the Active Elite 75t, but at their lower price, they're a steal. More than 5,000 shoppers agree—they praised them for their comfy fit and the active noise cancelation that effectively blocks out surrounding chatter and clear audio.

2. Save $90: Our favorite air purifier
With all the dust floating about, it's hard to know how pure the air in your home really is. One way to filter out the filth is with the Winix 5500-2 air purifier, currently on sale for $159.99, a 36% discount from its typical price of $249.99. This Winix model is our favorite air purifier thanks to its intuitive controls and thoughtful extras like a sleep mode, a timer and a light sensor. We also found it easy to change its filters and easy to move around the house—and, crucially, it was able to noticeably remove odors like cinnamon and cigarette smoke.

4. 15% off: This car mount for large phones
There are plenty of car phone mounts available, but some might not be large enough to support your smartphone in its protective case. Fortunately, there's a Vicseed mount specifically designed for larger phones—and it's on sale for $21.11. Usually listed for $24.95, this hands-free device is now available at a 15% discount. More than 15,500 shoppers gave this model a 4.4-star rating, praising its sturdiness and streamlined design. One shopper, who said they own an iPhone XR, said the mount held the phone in place even when their wife drove "like she's auditioning for a role in Mad Max."

5. Less than $65: Our favorite ice cream maker
With the summer heat still in the air, nothing makes the blaze of the sun bearable like a cold cone of ice cream. If you want to skip the long lines at shops and parlors, make your own scoop at home with the Cuisinart ICE-21 ice cream maker. Usually listed at $84.99, you can get the pink model for $62.99 with the coupon listed below the item's price. This 1.5-quart kitchen piece is our favorite ice cream maker thanks to its ability to prepare chilled treats in just 20 minutes—the quickest we tested (as long as you freeze the canister overnight)! We also liked the machine's simple design, featuring an open-top that facilitates pouring in chocolate chips and scooping out taste tests.
