Quit buying single-use cans and whip up beverage concoctions with the Ninja Thirsti. It impressed us during testing with its ability to make one glass at a time, and now the soda maker is $50 off for a limited time.Read our review
Bissell Little Green Portable Carpet Cleaner
Pet messes are no match for the Bissell Little Green. I've used this pet version on tons on carpets, couches and even blankets. It comes with a bristle attachment for scrubbing out tough stains and a cleaning solution for additional disinfecting.Read our review
Dreo Smart Pedestal Fan
Stay cool all summer long with Dreo's discounted smart fan. It's equipped with eight quiet speeds, a variety of cooling modes and a tilting head for maximum air circulation. Snag it ahead of the next heatwave while it's under $90.
Farberware Dual-Brew Coffee and Espresso Machine
Espresso machines typically cost anywhere from $200 to $2,000 and Faberware is here to change that narrative with its under $100 device. This one combines a typical 10-cup coffee maker with a 15-bar pressure pump to pull shots for barista-worthy beverages.
Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd Gen)
Our top pick for the best smart thermostat is $10 away from its all-time low price. The smart and simple-to-use interface that analyzes your habits wowed us when we tried it out last summer, and currently, the 4th Gen is also marked down at the retailer.
RTIC 32 Quart Hard Cooler
We keep up with new launches from RTIC and, of course, price drops on its most popular coolers. This model, in particular, is the smaller version of the 45-quart cooler we put up against Yeti's Tundra 45 in our Battle of the Brands piece and ahead of the long beach weekend, it's a rare $32 off.
Blackstone Adventure Ready 2-Burner Griddle
Set up a tiny but mighty grilling station at the beach, campsite and more with Blackstone's two-burner griddle. Fill the 362 square inches of cooking space with burgers, vegetable skewers and tons of other barbecue essentials during your next cookout.
Coleman Power Steel Round Aboveground Pool
An aboveground pool is a game-changer for those on a budget. Growing up, I had a similar pool in my yard and looked forward to hot days when I could swim with friends. Coleman makes some of our favorite outdoor gear, and this pool will become a staple for those in warm climates.
Lofka Patio Wicker Chair Set With Glass Coffee Table
Weeks ago, I spotted a deal on this patio set, and luckily, it's even lower today with all three pieces at just $50. Imagine curling up with a book, chatting with a friend or sipping a cocktail while watching the sunset on its cushioned seats.
Char-Broil Performance Series FlavorMax 4-Burner Gas Grill With Side Burner
It's not too late to get a large outdoor grill ahead of the holiday weekend. If you choose to pick it up at your nearest Walmart, you can get it as soon as today. It has a side burner for heating up sides and sauces and burners for precise cooking temperatures on a variety of meats.
Conair Men Ear, Nose and Eyebrow Hair Trimmer Kit
Say bye, bye to pesky ingrowns with Conair's trimmer kit. Put down the tweezers and safely buzz a variety of facial hair with this budget-friendly and best-tested device. It's become a favorite amongst editors and makes a great low-cost gift for anyone looking to up their grooming game.Read our review
Vanicream Facial Moisturizer SPF 30
Vanicream was recommended to me by a dermatologist years ago, and I've relied on its gentle face washes, non-comedogenic moisturizers and more. As someone with sensitive skin, I'm always looking for an affordable face cream that's packed with SPF for additional coverage over the summer months.
Lizush Shower Steamers
For those with no plans this weekend, it might be time to have a R&R day for yourself. Create an at-home spa experience with this pack of aromatic steamers if you're anti-bath. The kit also makes a great thank-you gift or birthday present for the summer babies in your life. We're in the midst of cancer season, and those water signs love self-care days.
Ghd 1-Inch Platinum+ Flat Iron
Last weekend, I got my hair blown out for my brother's wedding, and the stylist perfected my shiny bob with this flat iron. I haven't owned a hot tool in years, but I may have to splurge on this one from Ghd since it's on sale.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Gel Cream
My mom is quite literally obsessed with Neutrogena's Hydro Boost line and is always stocking up on the pump version. It's already pretty affordable, but if you're constantly getting refills like her, saving $6 is a game-changer for repeat purchases.
Apple AirTag
If summer travel is on the horizon, you'll want to keep luggage or personal items on your radar. An AirTag takes up minimal space, is compact and provides peace of mind while you're on the go. The single pack as well as the 4-pack are down to low prices ahead of the 4th of July and Prime Day. Read our review
Bose Smart Soundbar 550
A refurbished version of this soundbar from Bose goes for over $200 at Amazon, and now you can grab it for under $200 in brand-new condition at Walmart. It offers an immersive sound experience and seamlessly blends into your entertainment station — all for $300 off.
JBL Charge 4
This durable portable Bluetooth speaker is matching its lowest price ever in the Grey and Red colors. It typically retails for $180 on the brand's site but is under $100 at Walmart. We got our hands on this version as well as the more recent variations and appreciated its lengthy battery life.
Onn. 65-Inch Smart Roku TV
I've been eyeing affordable smart televisions for months and love the look of this Roku pick from Walmart. It's one of the cheapest 65-inch models you can find and is packed with smart features for streaming your favorite shows and a 4K panel.
Roku Streambar SE
The newest version of the Roku Streambar is under $80. It boosts your current TV's sound and is a more affordable alternative to other luxury soundbars. It's at one of the lowest prices of the year and is the best you'll get when it comes to a combo streaming and audio device. Often, the deals leading up to long weekends like Memorial Day and the 4th of July are just as good as the price drops that happen on the holiday itself. Because many of these deals are matching their lowest prices and are rare deals on editor-approved products, we aren't expecting them to last throughout the weekend.
Our deals team has over a decade of combined commerce journalism experience. Rikka Altland, Jacqueline Saguin and Elena Matarazzo source the deals for the day each morning to curate one-offs and retailer-specific roundups of the best sales to shop.

Intel (NasdaqGS:INTC) Unveils AI-Enhanced ePaper Touchpad for Innovative Laptop Experience
Intel saw a 17% upward price movement over the last month, a striking performance that stands out amidst tech sector advancements. This gain aligns with significant developments, like the launch of a groundbreaking ePaper touchpad solution by E Ink Holdings in collaboration with Intel technologies. Additionally, strategic partnerships and leadership changes at Intel, coupled with broader tech sector optimism seen in Nasdaq gains, likely added to the positive sentiment. Market dynamics suggest that Intel's recent moves align well with investor focus on tech innovation and strategic repositioning, which could lend further confidence to the company's future endeavors. Buy, Hold or Sell Intel? View our complete analysis and fair value estimate and you decide. Uncover the next big thing with financially sound penny stocks that balance risk and reward. The recent collaboration between E Ink Holdings and Intel, combined with strategic partnerships and changes in leadership, holds the potential to impact Intel's ongoing transformation efforts positively. As Intel grapples with organizational complexity and seeks to enhance its innovation play in AI and foundry businesses, these developments could prove crucial in offsetting complexity risks and boosting investor confidence. Despite a 17% rise in its share price over the past month, Intel's longer-term performance remains concerning, with a total return, including dividends, of 25.99% decline over the last year. This performance, when compared to the broader industry, highlights the ongoing challenges Intel faces in achieving growth amid tech sector advancements. Revenue and earnings forecasts could reflect optimism from recent strategic moves. However, broader market dynamics underline critical risks, such as reliance on older manufacturing nodes and geopolitical uncertainties. Analysts currently predict revenue growth of 2.5% annually, which is slower than the overall US market's 8.7% per year growth. Intel's focus on AI and structural transformation could influence future earnings, presenting a pathway for improvement, though benefits may take time to materialize. As the current share price of US$19.94 remains below the average analyst price target of US$21.29, this suggests Intel might still be perceived as undervalued relative to its fair value potential, presenting a mixed outlook for investors as they assess the company's transitional journey.

On 40th anniversary of ‘Back to the Future,' Allstate celebrates its role in creation of DeLorean time machine
On the 40th anniversary of the 'Back to the Future' movie premiere, Northbrook-based insurance giant Allstate is traveling back to the past to reveal its little-known role in developing the DeLorean, the futuristic but short-lived, gull-winged, stainless steel car that served as Doc Brown's time machine. Without Allstate, Marty McFly might never have left 1985 or perhaps he would have traveled back in time in a Buick, forever disrupting the space-time continuum of the seminal movie trilogy. 'The cars exist because of the partnership Allstate had with DeLorean,' said Sandee Lindorfer, vice president of auto claims for Allstate. In the words of Doc Brown, 'Great Scott!' 'Back to the Future' hit movie theaters on July 3, 1985. A customized 1981 DeLorean DMC-12, which took audiences on joyrides to 1955, 1885 and 2015 over the course of three films, was already relegated to the junkyard of automotive history by the time the movie premiered. In the mid-1970s, Allstate worked with John DeLorean, an automobile executive and engineer, who left GM to launch his own namesake vehicle. The insurance company invested a reported $500,000 in a safety car project, developing prototypes with advanced seatbelt restraints, airbags and improved bumpers. 'We sponsored three prototypes with the DeLorean-Allstate safety car agreement, and we brought one of the prototypes to Congress to show them what could be done around smaller vehicles being more safe and having better fuel economy,' Lindorfer said. One prototype evolved into the sleek DeLorean DMC-12, which went into limited but ill-timed production at a Northern Ireland factory during a recession in 1981, generating buzz but few sales. By 1982, the debt-ridden company was in bankruptcy and its founder in legal trouble, facing indictments on separate drug and fraud charges. John DeLorean was ultimately acquitted on both counts, but his car was seemingly no more than a flash in the pan. Three years later, the DeLorean was reborn as Doc Brown's time machine, and the rest is cinematic history. Initially, the time machine was envisioned as a refrigerator-like chamber that Doc Brown carried on the back of his truck. Then director Robert Zemeckis had the inspiration that the time machine should be mobile, and specifically chose the DeLorean for its futuristic design. 'The way I see it, if you're going to build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?' Doc Brown, played by Christopher Lloyd, explains in the movie. In the annals of 'Back to the Future' lore, a lot of similar nuggets have emerged since the film trilogy premiered. For example, the 1989 second installment predicted the Cubs would finally end their century-long World Series drought with a 2015 win over the fictional Miami Gators. The Cubs actually broke through in 2016, beating the Cleveland Indians, but the movie was pretty close. Also, the role of Marty McFly was initially given to Eric Stoltz, who participated in over a month of filming before he was replaced by Michael J. Fox, the more comedically gifted 'Family Ties' star. But Allstate's role in developing the car that begot the time machine and an enduring movie star remained buried in a dusty folder in the back of a corporate cabinet for decades. In 2019, an Allstate archivist found the mysterious DeLorean file and began exploring the mostly forgotten connection. Six years later, on the 40th anniversary of 'Back to the Future,' Allstate is finally ready to take a modest bow. On Tuesday, Allstate rented a pair of vintage DeLoreans to celebrate the movie, the car and the unlikely part the insurance company played in both. Tucked away in the back of an underground garage at Allstate's downsized Northbrook/Glenview headquarters, across the street from its former sprawling corporate campus, the vehicles were briefly on display for the media and a handful of executives. The cars, which included a stock 1981 DeLorean and a tricked-out version replicating the 'Back to the Future' time machine, were rented from an Orland Park company — DeLorean USA Rental — that leases the vehicles for parties and events. 'You can't drive it because the insurer doesn't allow it,' said Tom Sedor, who owns the cars and the rental company. The time machine, which includes a flux capacitor and a Mr. Fusion nuclear reactor in the back — replete with banana peel as fuel — is fully drivable, and the garage and adjacent parking lot offered enough room to get it up to the 88 mph threshold required to go back to the future. But Sedor, 57, who customized the movie mockup with a 3D printer and assorted parts from Menards and RockAuto, said the replica has yet to successfully make the time jump. 'Nothing happened, no sparks,' said Sedor. 'Everything drove normally. Actually, it's very, very impressive to drive.' rchannick@

Fed's Bostic Urges Patience Amid Uncertainty, Resilient Economy
(Bloomberg) -- Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta President Raphael Bostic called for patience amid uncertainty over economic policy and said a wait-and-see approach can help to ensure officials don't have to reverse course on interest rates. NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds Massachusetts to Follow NYC in Making Landlords Pay Broker Fees Foreign Buyers Swoop on Cape Town Homes, Pricing Out Locals What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing 'I believe a period characterized by such widespread uncertainty is no time for significant shifts in monetary policy,' Bostic said Thursday at an event in Frankfurt. 'That is especially the case against the backdrop of a still resilient macroeconomy, which offers space for patience.' Fed officials have held rates steady this year while they wait to see how President Donald Trump's tariffs, along with changes to immigration, taxes and regulation, will affect the economy. Projections released after last month's meeting show a divide over how much officials expect to reduce borrowing costs this year. While 10 policymakers expect to lower rates at least two times in 2025, seven see the Fed holding rates steady all year. The Atlanta Fed chief said earlier this week that the impact of tariff-induced price increases may be incremental, instead of amounting to a one-time jump, which could lead to more persistent inflation. He reiterated that concern on Thursday, saying tariff-related price bumps may be implemented over the course of the next year or more, causing a slow trickle of price increases that could lift inflation expectations. 'If I'm right, then the US economy will likely experience a longer period of elevated inflation readings,' Bostic said. Job Market A stronger-than-forecast jobs report for June, released earlier Thursday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, lowered market expectations for a July cut. Bostic said Thursday there are signs the labor market is softening, including a slowdown in hiring, but he said the jobs market is not yet deteriorating. 'I believe the committee must await more clarity rather than move in a policy direction that it might need to quickly reverse,' he said, referring to the Federal Open Market Committee. Responding to questions following his remarks, Bostic said higher US government debt levels could eventually have implications for policymakers. He said debt servicing costs could 'crowd out' other activities, which could later affect prices and employment in 'material' ways. Republicans in Congress appear close on Thursday to passing Trump's tax and spending bill. The version that passed the Senate would add nearly $3.3 trillion to US deficits over a decade, according to a new estimate from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. Bostic also said the size of the federal debt could affect monetary policy by moving interest rates. 'To the extent that those things are perceived in financial markets as risk elevators, you could see interest rates move to some extent independent of things that we do,' Bostic said. 'That would be really something that we'd have to think hard about.' --With assistance from Jana Randow. (Updates with additional Bostic comments starting in 10th paragraph.)
