Best tech deal

Why we like it

These days, a tablet holds just as much power as a laptop, and Apple’s iPad Air (5th generation) proves it. The fruit brand just debuted their latest iPad models this spring, and while that means that there are technically more advanced tablets available, it also means the older, but still impressive iPads are available at deep discounts. This Memorial Day, the iPad Air (5th Generation) is down to its lowest price ever of $399. That’s $200 off and 33% savings.

In Mashable’s review of the iPad Air by Stan Schroder, he was throughly impressed by the performance. It scored a 4.5/5, earning it a Mashable Choice Award. Loaded with Apple’s M1 chip, it’s almost excessively powerful for your typical tablet needs of streaming shows, reading e-books, or browsing the web. But that also makes it a great option for people who want to use their iPad like a laptop.

Best summer prep deal

Why we like it

What’s summer without backyard barbecues? If your old charcoal grill is looking sad, the impressive Traeger Grills Pro 575 is on sale for $599.95, down from the normal price of $799.99 which means you’ll be scoring a savings of $200.04. The Traeger uses wood pellets to fuel the grill rather than gas or charcoal and can reach a max temperature of 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Adding to the impressive upgrades, the Traeger grill can connect to your home’s WiFi which gives you control of the grill via the associated app on your phone or tablet. This means you can turn down the heat while inside prepping the potato salad.

The Traeger Grills Pro 575 has 575 square inches of grilling space which the brand says can fit 24 burgers, five racks of ribs, or four chickens.

Best deal to treat yourself

Why we like it

Summer is a great time to take it slow and relax. If 2024 has felt chaotic in a less-than-ideal way, take some time to unwind this summer with the Amazon Kindle Scribe, which doubles as an e-reader and a notebook. The Amazon Memorial Day sale brings the price down to $279.99 which is $110 off the normal price of $389.99. You’ll be free to enjoy all those books you’ve been meaning to get around to on the Kindle Scribe’s large 10.2-inch screen, which is the largest of any Kindle.

But what’s unique about the Scribe is the ability to use it as a journal. Sketch, draw, write, and take notes in the margins of books with the Kindle Scribe. The included Premium Pen allows users to write handwritten notes and easily covert them into text later or create folders to keep your projects organized.

If you’re looking to take it easy this summer and savor the warm afternoon breeze with a book or a journal entry, the Kindle Scribe is a great investment.

Best summer self-care deal

Why we like it

If you struggle with staying hydrated, welcome to the club. It’s easy to think drinking water would be no issue, but actually downing the ounces throughout the day can be an issue. With summer temps requiring even more hydration, grab the 40 oz Hydro Flask All Around travel tumbler to help keep you drinking water this summer. The double-wall design means your preferred drinks will stay cold and the flexible straw makes taking a quick sip a second-nature task.
