Daily Deals

What we like: Our thin and inexpensive no-show socks pick. Made from a lightweight and breathable cotton blend. Terrific value, especially when on sale. Great for wearing with snug-fitting shoes. Won’t slip or bunch.

Other things to know: Thin material doesn’t provide much padding or support. Not as soft and smooth as our other no-show sock picks. Deal is for a small or medium six-pack combination of black, grey, and whites (add $2 for large).

What we like: Our top pick for the best e-reader. Affordable and portable. Upgraded display. 16 GB of base storage. USB-C charging compatibility. Amazon offers well-stocked store of ebooks. Easy to check out library books via Libby.

Other things to know: Wi-Fi only. Not waterproof. Downloading EPUB files requires some extra steps. You have to pay $20 more to get a version without lock-screen ads. Deal comes with three free months of Kindle Unlimited (automatically renews for $11.99 per month, cancel anytime).

What we like: A last-minute Mother's Day gift pick. Has a much longer lifespan than the two weeks of actual flowers. Constructing the 430 pieces into two branches with pink and white flowers cupped with green leaves is an exercise in mindfulness.

Other things to know: First-time post. Should arrive before Mother's Day. Opt for store pickup from Target to avoid shipping fees.

What we like: Our top pick for best instant photo printer. Ultra-portable and compact. Quickly delivers vibrant, credit-card-sized film-like prints. Easy to set up and use with an intuitive app.

Other things to know: Printer body feels fragile. Prints take 4-6 minutes to fully develop and may lack fine detail and clarity. Uses the same film packs as Fujifilm’s Instax cameras. Deal price is on the white color. Recurring deal price.

What we like: Our pick for the best home pregnancy test. The most sensitive home pregnancy test available in the US. Very easy to use and read. Good size, easy to handle, and produces sharp pink lines.

Other things to know: Clip the on-page coupon for the deal price. One pack comes with three tests.

What we like: One of our foldable and portable toilet stool picks. A good choice for small spaces. Folds flat for storage, yet they’re sturdy when set up. Nicer looking than a lot of other options.

Other things to know: Takes considerable effort to fold up. Flat platform has multiple crevices that require frequent cleaning. Shallow toilet cutout. Not to be used as anything other than a footrest.

What we like: Our favorite bath tray for people who love to read (or watch on a larger tablet) while soaking. Solid wooden body and sturdy, adjustable metal legs for placing on the tub. Great multipurpose tray with notches for holding a paperback book.

Other things to know: Worked best with smaller paperback books (8-inch-tall book at 300 pages worked perfectly), but larger books can still be leaned against stand. Works with bathtubs 27-inches (arms closed) up to 37-inches (fully extended) wide.

What we like: Our vintage-style space heater pick. Heats well enough and looks good doing it. Solid metal construction with retro knobs. Charming vintage aesthetic. A great choice for anyone interested in aesthetics as well as comfort.

Other things to know: 1500- and 750-watt heat settings. 5-year satisfaction guarantee. Didn't spread heat around the room as well as some of our other picks. Available in an attractive sage-y green at the deal price.

What we like: Our runner-up pick for the best home security system. Affordable and reliable. Easy to use and install. Consistent response times. Compatible with voice-control systems including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and August Smart Locks. Good selection of add-ons.

Other things to know: Optional monitoring plan is slightly cheaper than that of our top pick, but doesn’t provide video storage. 10-piece kit includes base station, keypad, motion sensor, panic button, key fob, four entry sensors, and outdoor camera. Costco membership required.

What we like: Get $100 worth of Adidas gift cards for $80. Essentially free money towards your next purchase of Wirecutter picks at adidas.com or at physical Adidas locations. Good for yourself or send as a gift.

Other things to know: Wirecutter recommends several Adidas products, including the Adidas Team Issue duffle bag. Maximum of two gift cards may be redeemed on one order. Gift cards are not eligible for returns or exchanges.

What we like: Our former upgrade pick for the best MacBook. Large, vibrant display. Sharp 1080p notched webcam. Slim, lightweight design includes a MagSafe charging port, two USB-C ports, and headphone jack. Ideal for editing audio, photos, and videos.

Other things to know: A great value, as we only demoted this model as a pick because Apple stopped making it. Specs include M2 processor, 16 GB RAM, and 1 TB SSD—notably more than our recommended 8 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD. Better for more intensive tasks.

What we like: A service we mention favorably in our piece about the best options for grocery delivery. Instacart employs independent contractors to shop directly at your choice of available retailers. Essentially $10 free if you or someone you know who already uses this delivery service.

Other things to know: Instacart charges a higher premium for delivery fees and doesn't deliver to every zip code. Gift card is email delivery. It is non-returnable and non-refundable. Costco or Sam's Club membership required for purchase. 

What we like: A smaller-footprint version of the "fruit savior" we recommend in our guide to the best Mother's Day gifts. Chic and elegantly understated. Store cellar-loving root veggies in the cool, dark ceramic bottom and fresh fruits in the bowl-shaped cork lid.

Other things to know: Bottom is perforated so potatoes, onions, garlic and other alliums can reach max shelf life. Cork portion absorbs moisture, keeping fruit fresh longer and staving off fruit flies. 10.6-inch diameter. Deal price is on the color blue flame; use code BONJOUR.

What we like: Our pick for the best cast-iron skillet. Ideal for searing, roasting, and sautéing. Lightweight (compared to most other cast-iron options) and easy to maneuver. Sunny-side-up eggs slipped right out of the pan in our testing. Very affordable.

Other things to know: Shallower dimensions can make braising and deep-frying more difficult. Weighs 6.5 pounds. Made in the USA. Ships free from Williams Sonoma and free for Prime members from Amazon.

What we like: Another good option from our guide to the best Windows ultrabook. Lower priced, lower-specced version of our runner-up pick. Same excellent build quality, reliable trackpad and keyboard, with similar battery life. Can be used as a tablet. Currently cheaper than our budget ultrabook pick.

Other things to know: 13.3-inch 1920×1200 touch display is a bit smaller and dimmer than our top pick. Specs include AMD Ryzen 5 7530U, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, and 3-months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Lacks Thunderbolt 4 ports.

What we like: A "fruit savior" we recommend in our guide to the best Mother's Day gifts. Chic and elegantly understated. Store cellar-loving root veggies in the cool, dark ceramic bottom and fresh fruits in the bowl-shaped cork lid.

Other things to know: Bottom is perforated so potatoes, onions, garlic and other alliums can reach max shelf life. Cork portion absorbs moisture, keeping fruit fresh longer and staving off fruit flies. 14-inch diameter. Deal price is on the website-exclusive color flint; use code BONJOUR.

What we like: Another high-end Dyson vacuum worth considering. Dustbin is double the size of our top pick's bin. Auto mode preserves battery life by adjusting suction levels. Useful LCD screen.

Other things to know: Former upgrade pick. Trigger-style power switch requires constant squeezing. Motor has more muscle than our top pick, but resulting clean is just about equal. Certified refurbished by Dyson with two-year limited warranty provided by Allstate.

What we like: Our runner-up pick in our guide to the best commuter bike light. Former top pick we still consider very good. Largest, most visible side lights of any headlight we tested, giving better lateral visibility than our top pick. Battery should power an average urban commuter through the workweek.. Easy-to-use quick-release latch.

Other things to know: Rubber mounting strap is less user-friendly than our top pick's mount. Battery life (four hours on the medium setting of 350 lumens) not as robust as that of our top pick.
