Prime Day can feel overwhelming. There are thousands of deals, endless lightning sales, and plenty of products that seem exciting until they end up collecting dust in a closet. Not to mention it really snuck up on me this year!
Instead of sharing hundreds of random discounts, I wanted to focus on products that actually make life easier. These are items I’ve purchased and use regularly, or have sitting in my cart waiting for a good sale because I’ve read the reviews and I’m SOLD.
☕ For Better Mornings
If you’re anything like me, a little (a lot of?) caffeine and a smoother routine can set the tone for the entire day.
Watching for deals on:
- Double-wall insulated tumblers
- Espresso accessories
- Milk frothers
- Protein coffee staples
- Reusable straws and cleaning brushes
- My favorite milk frother is less than $7!
- This Nespresso machine is less than $100 for lattes at home
🏃 For Working Out at Home
I’m trying to get back into lifting consistently, rehabbing an elbow injury, and training for a 5K, so I’ll definitely be checking fitness deals.
Prime Day favorites:
- Adjustable dumbbells
- Walking pads
- Resistance bands
- Pilates rings
- Foam rollers
- Wireless earbuds
- These adjustable dumbbells are on my wishlist at $100 off!
- I have a walking pad in my living room but I’m tempted to upgrade to this one that has an incline option while it’s on Prime Day deal
✨ Self-Care Finds Worth Rebuying

- The Shark FlexStyle I use almost daily is on a deal for $199
- My all-time FAVE Medicube serum is only $14 (so of course I bought 3)

📚 Summer Survival and Back-to-School Prep
Prime Day always seems to arrive right when I’m starting to think about school supplies and getting everyone ready for fall.
Things I’m watching:
- Water bottles

- Tween essentials
- I love all things Simple Modern but especially this adorable water bottle for the littles (the one with the farm animals?! stop it right now)
- I am obsessed with this new Coconut Pearl color in the Simple Modern 40 oz. tumbler – on Prime Day deal for only $22! It also comes in a more travel-friendly 30 oz version for $24 during Prime Week.
Just for Fun (or Gifts)
- I would love to be gifted this frozen drink maker! Perfect for the party hosts in your life!
- You cannot go wrong with Magnatiles for kids of all ages. These are a great deal for $35
- I’m obsessed with these comfy ankle strap espadrilles from Dream Pairs – only $23!
- My favorite work top (it’s a bodysuit so it STAYS PUT but it’s not tight-fitting) for hot days or under a blazer/cardigan is only $12-15 depending on the color you choose – SO cute and flattering!
I’m planning to update this post throughout Prime Day as prices change and good deals pop up, so feel free to bookmark it and check back. You can also check out all my finds via my Amazon storefront.
And if you’ve found something amazing this year, I’d love to hear about it in the comments. I’m always susceptible to being influenced by a genuinely useful recommendation.
