These are the best last-minute back-to-school deals you can find before Prime Day ends tonight

As hard as it is to believe, both summer and the Prime Day deals are almost over. So, there's no better time to stock up on school supplies and back-to-school essentials than the last few hours of the sale.Out of all the deals I found, I especially recommend the 34% discount on Paper Mate Felt Tip Markers. These markers, also known as flairs, are some of my favorite office supplies because they're colorful without smearing or bleeding. I'm also a fan of the 40% sale on a six-pack of Mead Spiral Notebooks, which is perfect for staying organized this school year.Check out our best Prime Day backpack deals page for huge discounts on backpacks, too. We'll also be updating our Amazon Prime Day hub with the best last-minute deals until the sale ends.
These two-pocket folders are made of plastic rather than card stock, so they'll protect papers better and last longer. Choose from several six packs in bright or neutral colors.
Dividers are key if you're using binders to organize materials. This deal gets you six packs of eight dividers, each with an erasable tab so they can be repurposed later on.
These traditional 100-page wide-ruled notebooks are ideal for elementary school. This four-pack includes different colors for easy identification.
With a padded laptop carrying case, multiple pockets, and a shoulder strap, the Case-it Universal 2-Inch 3-Ring Zipper Binder with Laptop Holder meets virtually any need.

You'll be set for the entire school year with this set of six spiral notebooks. Use a different color for each class to keep your notes organized.
The Rocketbook Everlast is infinitely reusable because you can just wipe down the page after it's served its purpose.
Bic's mechanical pencils write well and are easy to hold. They're also affordable, so it's no big deal if you accidentally leave one in your classroom or lose it in your backpack.
I've used G2 pens all the way from middle school to graduate school to my job, and I truly believe they're the best pens of all time. They're smooth, dry fast, and have plenty of colors for color-coding your notes.
Also known as flairs, these felt-tip pens are like if a pen and a marker had a baby. This 24-pack comes with a plethora of neutral and bright colors.

Forget Prime Day — You can still save on these 21 running shoe deals on Brooks, Skechers, Asics and more at Amazon

Prime Day may be over, but you can still find plenty of great running shoe deals on Amazon hanging around. Some of our favorite pairs are seeing stellar discounts right now, but you'll have to run, not walk, to snag these deals before they're gone. I'm talking Skechers deals from $13, Brooks for under $100, and up to 30% off the best running shoes from Asics. Amazon is one of my favorite places to go for Skechers deals, and while it's hard to pick just one, I highly recommend the Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 on sale from $43 at Amazon. In our Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 review, we praised their bouncy and comfortable feel underfoot and called them a great pair for beginner runners. I'm more of an Asics girlie myself, so my top pick is the Asics Novablast 4 on sale from $99. It's bouncy and lively enough to help you pick up the pace on your tempo runs and speed sessions, while still being cushioned and comfortable on long runs and easy days. Just keep in mind that the prices vary based on your choice of size and color, so check out the different color options in your size to score the best deals. For more savings, see our Amazon promo codes coverage. Score these comfortable Skechers sneakers starting from $14. They feature a Skechers memory foam footbed and come in four stylish color options. Reviewers on Amazon say these are sturdy and fit true to size. The Skechers Tantric are on sale for a super-cheap price, although the discount doesn't apply to all sizes and colors. These are super comfortable to wear thanks to their soft perforated footbed and canvas strap. These creatively-named Skechers wedges are on sale for a steal in certain sizes and colors! These sandals are super comfortable to wear thanks to their stretchy strap and Memory Foam footbed. I love the color option with the sparkly jewels on the strap! Score a great deal on these Skechers Nampa Groton. These simple shoes look smart and have a super comfortable Skechers Memory Foam footbed. They're also slip resistant, making them a solid choice for work days. Looking to save on a comfortable and secure sandal now that the season's winding down? You can't go wrong with this Skechers slide sandal that features a lightweight upper with adjustable buckle straps, a contoured cushioned footbed and podiatrist-certified arch support. These are the best Skechers slip-ins we've tested, so they're the ones to get if you want a super easy way to put your shoes on. They're lightweight, stretchy and breathable. In our Skechers Slip Ins Dazzling Haze review, we said they're perfect for low-impact activities like walking, light resistance training and dance cardio. If you prefer the classic slip-on look, the Go-Walk 5 Skechers have a soft, breathable, knitted upper that is comfortable across the top of your foot, whether you're wearing socks or not. They are machine washable, comfortable underfoot, and by design, extremely easy to slip on and off. These Skechers loafers are both smart and comfortable. They blend in well everywhere, from the office to the beach! With air-cooled memory foam underfoot and a stretch knit upper, your feet will be supported, and there's no chance of blisters. These Skechers sandals are the perfect summer shoe. They have Skechers' iconic comfortable midsole, paired with breathable, adjustable straps for a supportive fit, wherever you're walking this summer. They are vegan, and machine washable, with one customer writing, "Most comfortable sandals that I have ever bought. Bought one pair a year ago and had to buy another one this year cause they were that good." Now is a great time to buy, as the shoes are discounted in the two most popular colors: sand and black. If you're hitting the road, these Skechers are an excellent choice. Our Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 review said that these are great for beginner runners thanks to their affordable price point, bouncy and propulsive soles and breathable design. We rank these shoes as the best Skechers for novice runners. These extremely light and breathable shoes are supportive, durable and come in at an affordable price point. However, we noted in our Skechers Go Run Lite review that you'll eventually want to upgrade to a shoe that is engineered for running longer distances if you do get serious about the sport. Did you know Skechers also makes running shoes? If you're obsessed with the soft cushioned comfort of Skechers, but want to run in them too, give these a try. This Tom's Guide staffer recently tested them and wrote, "I didn't know that I was missing a whole other level of comfort until I tested the Skechers Max Cushioning Elite 2.0. They are so comfortable to wear even just for walking around, but when I took them on a run for the first time I set a new PR for my 3-mile run." The Novablast 4 is on sale! Cycle through the different options to find the best deal in your size. My colleague runs marathons pretty much for a living, and it's one of her favorite pairs of Asics shoes. The Gel Venture 10 is a waterproof trail running shoe that comes in 11 different color options and is Amazon's #1 bestseller. We price-checked against Asics, and although they are running a sale, this is the lowest price available. Although a fairly modest discount, this shoe is currently at its lowest price in 30 days. It's regarded as a comfy and versatile sneaker that suits neutral runners in particular. Not fussed about the 26? I've had this running shoe for a few years, and I still trot out the 10Ks in them. They're so breathable and comfortable, and I feel like I'm basically running on teeny tiny puffy clouds. Plus, I quite like the slightly garish bold color pops. The Gel Cumulus 26 isn't the latest in the Gel Cumulus range, thanks to the Gel Cumulus 27, but this is a handsome deal to snap up if you don't care about having the latest shoe. It also saves you a lot of money, given that we only rated the 27 with 3 stars, and this one is far more worth the money. I personally love and still run in the Gel Nimbus range, and a 31% saving on the Gel Nimbus 26 is an absolute steal. Plenty of lightweight cushioning and a breathable upper make this the perfect shoe for longer miles, in my opinion. We're huge fans of the Gel Kayano 31 at TG. A generous slice of cushioning in the midsole and rearfoot PureGEL technology for a softer, bouncier ride. What's not to love? Right now, the men's Brooks Ghost 16 in this grey colorway is down to $99 in the Prime Day sale. You'll have to cycle through the different options to find the best deal for you in your size. The Brooks Ghost 16 is also on sale in the women's shoe at $99. Again, you'll have to look through the different colors to find the best deal in your size.

I'm a deals hunter — 5 queen mattresses under $400 to shop this weekend

At Tom's Guide we're experts at spotting mattress deals, so even though the July 4th and Prime Day sales have come to an end, we've found a saving for every sleep style. Including the Cool Gel all-foam mattress only $348 for a queen at Amazon — perfect for the summer heatwaves. These budget beds might not have the the durability of the best mattresses we've tested, but they should still deliver sleep comfort. And they all either come from brands we've tried and recommended or have a bucket load of positive customer reviews. Every mattress in this guide is under $400 for a queen, so if you're looking to spruce up your spare room, these are the best mattress sales to please both your guests and your wallet. 1. Cool Gel 12" Memory Foam Mattress (queen): was $368 now $348 at AmazonStruggling to sleep in the summer heat? While the budget-friendly Cool Gel Mattress might not have the impressive temperature regulation of our top-rated cooling mattresses, we think it should still help you enjoy a more refreshing night's rest. And it won't break the bank, with a queen now only $348 at Amazon. Reviews indicate the 12" model is on the firm side of medium-firm so if you want something more plush, upgrade to the 14" option, now $509 for a queen (down from $569.) 2. Serta Five Star Tranquility 10" Plush Mattress (queen): was $499 now $374 at AmazonYou'll need an Amazon Prime account to snag this saving but for members, the queen Serta Five Star 10" is now only $374 (and if you aren't a member, we have all you need to know about joining Amazon Prime.) From Serta, the Five Star Mattress uses a multi-layered design to pair support with cushioning. Serta claims this model is 'Plush' which should give it a pressure-relieving feel similar to our favorite mattresses for side sleepers. There are rare savings across the line-up and if you want the true Five Star experience, consider upgrading to the 12" Plush, now $419.30 for a queen (was $599.) 3. Brooklyn Bedding 12" Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress (queen): was $504 now $268 at WalmartBrooklyn Bedding makes some of the best hybrid mattress we've tested and this budget-friendly model is ideal for a guest room (or a college dorm, if you need a mattress for the kids that are flying the nest.) Reviews suggest the 12" model delivers a medium firmness that should suit back and side sleepers. If you have a bigger budget, the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex mattress line-up will deliver better durability. But for an affordable sleep solution, this is a bargain at $268 for a queen. 4. EGOHOME 12" Memory Foam Mattress (queen): was $429.99 now $329 at AmazonWe recently got our hands on this bed and our EGOHOME Black Memory Foam Mattress review team agreed the body-hugging comfort could rival some of the best memory foam mattresses we've tested, particularly for side sleepers. While it was slightly cheaper during Amazon Prime Day (when we saw a queen drop to $311), with a less than $20 price difference we still think this is an impressive deal and worth taking advantage of. 5. Zinus Spa Sensations Green Tea 10" Memory Foam Mattress (queen): was $288 now $168 at WalmartThis isn't the exact same model we tested in our Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress review but we think it will deliver a similar cushy comfort that's ideal for side sleepers. As a budget all-foam bed with a sink-in feel we suspect it will have a tendency to trap heat, so you might want to invest in cooling bedding to see you through the summer. And with a queen only $168 in Walmart's rollback sale, you should have room in the budget for some of our favorite cooling sheets.
