All two-year plans except NordVPN Basic will see you pocket a free Amazon gift card. You'll receive your gift card between 31 and 50 days after purchase. So if you take advantage of the money-back guarantee, you won't receive a gift card. The deal is limited to users in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada and NordVPN prices and plans differ between the regions. But let's see what's on offer where you are. If you live in the US, you're in luck. This is where the best NordVPN deals are, and NordVPN Basic, NordVPN Plus, NordVPN Complete, and NordVPN Prime are the plans you can purchase. Remember, all two-year plans come with an extra four months of protection for free and a 30-day money-back guarantee – but only three come with an Amazon gift card. NordVPN Plus is the first to include an Amazon gift card and this is worth $20. It comes to $3.76 per month ($105.36 up front pre-tax). You'll unlock great features like Threat Protection Pro – NordVPN's highly rated malware and threat protection – and NordPass, one of the best password managers. This is along with standard offerings that include speeds of 900 Mbps+, protection for up to 10 devices, post-quantum encryption support for all platforms, and one of the best streaming VPNs. Next we have NordVPN Complete and it'll cost you $4.62 per month ($129.36 up front pre-tax). For $24 more than NordVPN Plus, you'll unlock 1TB of encrypted cloud storage and a $40 Amazon gift card. American folks, NordVPN Prime is your most complete plan. It's not cheap, coming in at $6.33 per month ($177.36 up front pre-tax). This makes it one of the most expensive VPN plans out there, but you're well compensated when it comes to features. All previously mentioned features are included, along with NordProtect. This grants you up to $1 million in ID theft insurance and up to $100k in cyber extortion insurance. There's credit and dark web monitoring, plus a dedicated case manager available to you should you need to make a claim. If you just want a VPN, this might not be for you. But if you want total cybersecurity protection, it's a very reasonable price. Oh, and did we mention, you'll get your hands on a free $50 Amazon gift card. NordVPN Basic is the plan to go for if you simply want a class-leading VPN and no extra features. 28 months of protection works out at $2.91 per month ($81.36 up front pre-tax) but there's no Amazon gift card.

The NordProtect feature included with NordVPN Prime is a US-exclusive, but the UK gets a watered down version with NordVPN Ultimate. Up to £5,000 is offered to aid with scam and ID theft recovery costs. If you're not interested in an Amazon gift card, NordVPN Basic is £2.31 per month (£64.56 up front pre-tax).

Dreading the back-to-school list? This $18 Amazon supply set has *almost* everything
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. Parents across the country are looking for creative ways to offset back-to-school costs, and one smart purchase could save them hundreds of dollars on supplies. A late July survey from U.S. News found that 85% of Americans are concerned about back-to-school prices, with the threat of tariffs impacting prices on basic supplies. The National Retail Federation estimated that school spending is expected to average around $858 per household in 2025. But, back-to-school shopping doesn't need to be chaotic, overwhelming, or outrageously expensive — if you know where to find the right deals. Take Amazon, for example, where shoppers can sift through a dedicated back-to-school section and snag the newly-released 44-piece School Supply Kit for just $18. It's on sale for 21% off today, right in time for the start of the school season. For a fraction of the national average, students will be stocked up on the majority of the essentials — that is, a bundle of colorful pens, pencils, sticky notes, scissors, highlighters, notebooks, glue sticks, and a plethora of other desk supplies that they'll need for staying on top of their studies this school year. Of course, it comes with backups for when they lose things, too. The Amazon Basics Student Success Kit is already flying off the shelves, with thousands of parents calling it a genius hack and time-saver, and others claiming that it has 'almost everything' you need to cross off the school supply list. Amazon Skip the trips to the stores, scavenger hunt through aisles, and disagreements over marker brands and pencil box colors. Thousands of parents are purchasing Amazon's new school supply set and rave about how well-curated it is for students of all ages. 'I picked up this 44-piece student success kit as a way to jumpstart the school year for one of our kids, and it really exceeded my expectations,' one shopper shared. 'It's rare to find a school supply set that feels both complete and practical without any fluff or filler, but this one does exactly that.' The stationery supplies are offered in a variety of shades for color-coding. Writing supplies are simple and neat, with plenty of room for labeling. Plus, parents say the addition of a ruler, scissors, and a sharpener rounds out the value, making it a very 'smart buy' ahead of the school year.

Govee 50ft (2-Pack) RGBIC LED Strip Lights Cost Less Than Prime Day, Basically Free Per Pack
A little bit of light can go a long way, especially when that light comes from a smart source. If you're looking to change how your home feels, or just a specific room, and you want that change to be easy to switch up as you want, then smart lights could well be the answer. While they can be expensive, we've found an amazing deal on one of the best options out there. You can get these Govee 100-foot Smart LED Lights for $44, which is 40% off the normal price. This is a great reduction and definitely a good deal for anyone on the hunt for some great smart lights. However, it's worth noting that it's a limited-time deal, which does mean that it could end at any time. See at Amazon Smart lights can be used to help you control the feeling of any room you want to. While they're often seen used by creative types on YouTube and Twitch, it's not just gamers and content creators who can benefit from them. In fact, we'd wager that a lot of people would get a little bit more joy in their life by using these kinds of lights. Govee is one of the best in the business when it comes to smart lights, offering a huge range of options, but the strip lights can be seen as the staple for many. 100-feet is an awful lot, and should be more than enough to light up hallways, doorways, special bits of furniture, or just really focus on one specific room. This particular one comes with two 50-feet strips. You can install them as you like, and then gain amazing control over the colors using the app, which lets you set different sections as different colors, have them change regularly, or even sync to the music you've got playing. You can even control them with your voice, if you've got a smart assistant in your home, which'll have you feeling like you're living in the future. They're just a great pick up to improve the vibes in any home. It's easy to see why these strips would normally set you back $73, but that's not what you'll pay if you pick them up right now. The chance to buy them for just $44 won't last forever though, so if these are something you want to buy, make sure you get on this quickly. See at Amazon
