I tried a £9.99 neck fan from Amazon and it's a must buy
That's where a small gadget comes in – a neck cooler, which is a fan I've started to use to keep myself cool. You've probably seen them around but if you've not yet made the purchase, here's what I thought when I ordered one for £9.99 on Amazon. The neck fan cooled me down in minutes and is now a summer essential for me (Image: Newsquest) I tried an Amazon neck fan and I don't know why I've not bought one sooner I ordered the Bladeless Neck Cooler from LYMYBETY for a bargain price and to be honest, I wasn't expecting much since it really didn't break the bank. However, I was pleasantly surprised when trying it out as it even cooled me down quickly after a very hot and sweaty netball match – what a result! The design is sturdy, but the fan fits around my neck and is quite comfortable to wear while it cools me down. You can choose from black and white, but I went for black as I didn't want the white one to get marked, as it could be more noticeable. How to cope with hot weather The fan itself fits around your neck like a pair of headphones so you can go about your day wearing it. Within minutes, I noticed a difference in how I was feeling – the fan really did cool me down, and with it being around my neck, it seemed to target the right areas to make me feel better. The fan came with a good amount of charge already in it, but you get a charging lead so you can power it up for your next use. You have to make sure the fan part is facing upwards to feel any cool air, but apart from that, it's easy to pick up and go. It has three speed settings so you can have the air flowing faster or slower depending on how cool you want to feel with just a click of a button. The fan is a bargain and does the job (Image: Newsquest) Is the neck fan worth it? Overall, I think this gadget is one I'll use time and time again, especially when I want to cool myself down quickly or keep myself at a cool temperature. I like that it's a gadget that I could pick up and know how to use straight away, it was so simple to get it working. One thing I need to get used to is the slight vibration on the higher speed setting. Recommended reading: The neck fan can be a little noisy, especially as it progresses to the higher setting but I don't think it would cause too much of an issue when out and about. So far, my long hair hasn't been caught in the fan and since it's bladeless, I'm hoping this will never be a problem. Future uses that spring to mind are while on flights or as I'm stepping off the plane into humid air, during hot summer days when I'm sat at my desk working and after many a netball match. For £9.99, I'm impressed with its performance so far and hope it lasts well as I keep using it.

Psst — a lot of reviewers mentioned this also helped prevent peeling and itching!Promising review: "I bought this product to take on our vacation. I am so glad I did.

The instant I put this on, I had relief. OMG I cannot say enough about this stuff. Buy it. Keep it on hand. Great product. Thank you, Burt's Bees!" —D.S. Price: $7.02 (typically $9.99) 30% off the iconic SPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar, a K-beauty staple with a curved balm stick style that makes it super easy to apply, and a non-sticky, white cast-free formula that plays ABSURDLY well with makeup.

You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information!Promising review: "NO WHITE CAST! I've been looking for a stick sunscreen and this was just exactly what was needed!! I'm a medium-toned Black woman and looking for something without a white cast is always a challenge. I have applied it on my bare skin and there isn't a white cast at all! It's a 'soft matte' finish, for sure, and looks like natural skin. Like you're not wearing anything at all." —Martina"One of the best facial sunscreens I've ever used. The design is amazing and contours your face perfectly. It works well on its own or layered under makeup. No issues with clogging my pores or breakouts. I wore it on a trip to Mexico, and it did its job flawlessly. I will repurchase again and again." —TlongPrice: $11.99 (typically $17.02; also available in two-packs) 20% off the famous Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream (a deal worth considering, because it *rarely* goes on sale). This is a fan-favorite body cream you're going to want to slather all over your body, thanks to the deep hydration (cupuaçu butter, coconut oil, and açai oil!) and temporary skin-tightening (caffeine!) it provides, plus a fragrance with notes of salted caramel and vanilla that reviewers L O V E. Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland review: "Where has this been all my life? I have been using this for maybe three days now, and putting it on in the morning and evening are the best parts of my day. The description of the scent as "pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla" does not even begin to describe the incredibly decadent smell of this cream on my skin. My skin feels like velvet, and I saw improvements in the texture after the first application. I will use it for the rest of my life. Do not ever discontinue this! I did not expect to be so amazed by this cream, but it is life-changing. Buy it! You won't regret it." —Michelle BrownPrice $38.40 (originally $48) — they're offering 20% off their other creams and fragrances too!

Promising review: "Exactly the type of short I have been looking for! These are a great length and don't ride up. Levi's is such a great go-to brand. They have good stretch and are comfortable to squat down in." —Shyenne $28.48+ (regularly $49.99+; available in women's sizes 23–34 and in nine styles at various discounts)See more Levi's deals here. 25% off a bladeless, oscillating Dreo Tower Fan reviewers especially love for their bedrooms and offices because it is SO so so whisper-quiet. This remote-controlled fan with nine different speeds and four modes is basically the height of summer luxury — especially because it uses sensors to adjust wind speed as the temperature shifts throughout the day. Promising review: "I am INCREDIBLY sensitive to noisy fans when I'm trying to sleep at night. I have tried so many different fans, and this is the first and only one that has been COMPLETELY silent, besides just hearing air come out of it. No clicking, no nothing. It's incredible. I just bought another one for my office." —Lori PerkinsPrice: $75 (originally $99) 20% off tons of Supergoop bestsellers, including the wildly popular Glowscreen SPF 40 for anyone who wants a super glowy, lit-from-within complexion at all times. Better yet, it doubles as a makeup-gripping primer, so your glow will shine through your foundation while keeping you protected. Check out a TikTok of the Glowscreen SPF 40 in action. Promising review: "I've tried a lot of sunscreen and primers over the last year. I mean A LOT. My skin is super sensitive, acne-prone, and prone to dryness and redness. (Complicated, I know) This stuff doesn't feel heavy and moisturizes really well while not feeling like I'll break out later. It protected my skin from sunburn during six hours at Six Flags. I don't wear a ton of makeup, but the foundation and bronzer I wore didn't budge or crease. It makes your skin glow like [wild], which alone is a bit much for me, but under some foundation, it looks amazing! Def worth the buy and will buy again." — $17.60+ (originally $22+; available in three sizes and four shades; see more Supergoop deals here) 30% off a bag of FIRECRACKER! POPSICLE! FLAVORED!!! Liquid I.V. electrolyte drink mix so you can hit your hydration goals *and* relive the glory of chasing down the ice cream truck as a kid. Reviewers are genuinely stunned by how much this tastes like the ~real thing~. FYI, depending on your situation, water may be enough to rehydrate you! Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Liquid I.V. does an amazing job hydrating. I purchase their product for 40+ employees who work in a construction-related industry. Hydration is so important while working in the hot Georgia Sun, and this product aids in this 100%. Now, let's talk about the firecracker flavor! When we produced these for our crew, ages 23–60, all of their eyes lit up, and they were super excited. Many of them did not know this flavor existed. Quite honestly, I didn't either until I came across them on Amazon. They all loved the flavor. In particular, the ones who were older kept telling me it tasted like their childhood. Seriously, who hasn't stood outside an ice cream truck ordering the Firecracker Popsicle?" —Disney DivaPrice: $16.54 for 16 packets (typically $24.99; available in 12 other flavors) 22% off (a new lowest price ever) the newest version of the Kindle Paperwhite that's basically screaming "take me to the beach" — it has 25% faster page turns (!!), higher contrast ratio, and a glare-free 7-inch display, *plus* a waterproof rating for the pool and beach. Check out a TikTok of the new Kindle Paperwhite in action. "I've been using my Kindle Paperwhite (a previous generation) before bed for years — and after reading for a while, I turn down the brightness to a low level just slightly dimmer than I'd want — after a page or two, my brain goes "Nope!" and shuts off to sleep. AND it helps me not even start thinking the anxious or negative thoughts that *usually* keep me up at night. I got to upgrade to this new Kindle Paperwhite a few months ago, and the warm light feature is a game-changer. And the page turns and responsiveness of this model are indeed faster — and I can really tell the difference compared to my old Kindle!" —BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer Price: $124.99 (originally $159.99) — and shop all the Kindle deals here 30% off Biodance's TikTok-beloved Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask that'll feel nice and cool on your skin when trying to beat the heat this summer. Plus, it'll give you an overnight ~refresh~ to help firm skin, boost elasticity, and minimize pores. Reviewers mention noticing a visible difference even after one use! You are about to become the definition of "I woke up like this." ✨ Promising review: "Caught wind of this on TikTok and decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, it's pretty solid! It really makes my skin look tight and shiny, like I just came out of a professional facial. It's an overnight mask, so yeah, it does have to stay on for a while, which is a bit of a hassle, but the payoff? Totally worth it. My skin feels more elastic, and the pores look minimized, too. If you don't mind the long wear time, this mask could be a game changer for your skincare routine!" —NalaPrice: $13.30 for four (originally $19) 40% off the wildly improved 2nd Gen AirPods Pro because the sun is relentless, and the idea of wearing over-the-ear headphones is unimaginable. Not only do these have a MASSIVE improvement in battery life (up to 30 hours), but it has new adjusting sound-adaptive features to make talking on the phone and listening to dialogue much easier. Also, trust me when I tell you that once these toggle into "noise-canceling" mode, you're the main character. All the irritating background noise in the world just *POOFS* away. Check out a TikTok of the AirPods Pro in action. Promising review: "These might be the best earbuds. They have a lot of features, clear audio, and mic sound. The best part of this one is the design choice Apple went with this, this actually stays in your ear, unlike the other Apple AirPods. It's even better than the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, and this is coming from a guy who switch from Samsung to iPhone. If you gonna get some AirPods save up for this one and get it on sale, Amazon sells it cheaper than any other stores." —Davier BoldsPrice: $149 (originally $249 (and currently $249 at Apple); typically $189.99 at Amazon) Or 32% off a pair of waterproof, sweatproof wireless earbuds with some real AirPods Pro energy — except these feature a charging case that, bless its technologically savvy heart, has an LED display letting you know exactly how much charge is left. Reviewers also love how delightfully comfortable these are, making them a solid, affordable option for talking on the phone and exercising. Promising review: "I use these every day at work! Love these — easy to learn and to use. Best thing about them? Well, everything, lol. Good sound, they hold a charge for long periods, and I don't have to worry about them losing power. I can answer my phone easily and then go back to music without a problem. Definitely a great buy and worth the money! Love this color, too!" —Erin"These are the best quality earbuds for the price! I found them through TikTok and have zero regrets. I'd definitely repurchase if needed." —HamrickPrice: $25.98+ (typically $37.99; available in nine colors) An Away hardside carry-on suitcase for 20% off (for Black Friday they usually offer 25% off, so this is a great rare deal!) — they're super durable, glide smoothly, and will become your go-to for all the summer trips on which you do *not* want to have to pay for a checked bag. The "bigger" carry-on is also on sale! I've had my Away carry-on for over five years, and I love it every time I use it! —MaitlandPromising review: "I just love my Away carryon! Using it on trip to Ireland and was able (with compression bags) to pack for a 13 day trip. Despite all the weight packed, with the lightweight case I was able to easily get into the overhead bin without assistance. The look is modern and the rollability is like butter. Lots of compartments for stashing bits. Also like the built in security with zipper lock. Great value for the money!" —jmsPrice: $220 (originally $275; six colors on sale) — and shop all the Away deals here Up to 30% off Case-Mate's iconic waterproof beach totes, which are, of course, ridiculously roomy and useful, but more importantly, ABSURDLY cute. This is the "It" accessory of the beach if there ever were one. Get ready to be swimming in the ocean AND in compliments from strangers. Bonus — it even comes with a separate dry bag for your phone! Promising review: "I've been wanting a sturdy and cute beach bag that was not mesh and or a basic tote. This is it! It comes with a dry bag for phone. The handles are thick. The iridescent color looks so cool in the sun and it's the perfect size. I fit two towels, a sunscreen bag, two changes of clothes, a speaker, goggles, and snacks. With extra room too. I love the new silver black color but this purple was on sale so I went for it. Matches perfectly with my black swimsuit." —Daniela GPrice: $55.99+ (typically $79.99; available in five styles) 38% off elegant blackout linen curtains that'll raise your ceilings and elevate the look of even the barest of living rooms. The main takeaway? After finding a piece this gorgeous, at this price, things are looking up! Promising review: "These curtains are beautiful and do an awesome job blocking out light. Almost too well — it's a struggle to get out of bed in the morning because I can't even tell it's daylight." —NicholasPrice: $24.84 (originally $38.99; available in 23 colors) 37% off Olay Intensely Hydrating Body Wash so decadently moisturizing that all your dry, itchy skin will REJOICE. Not only is this chalk full of hydrating hyaluronic acid and niacinamide for oh-so-supple skin, it comes in dainty, floral-leaning "mandarin fizz" and "strawberry fizz" scents, so you'll come out of the shower smelling like a fairy tale. Promising review: "This Intensely Actuating Hyaluronic Serum Complex is like bathing in butter — it melts right into the skin. For the price, it's absolutely wonderful and goes a long way. My skin feels amazing after using it. The scent is heavenly, like falling asleep in a beautiful rose garden. It's so soothing and refreshing, almost like a spa experience at home." —MelissaPrice: $6.29 (typically $9.94; available in two scents) 20% off a pack of SweatBlock wipes for the peeps whose pits get drenched the second the temperature hits 70 degrees. These clinical-strength, pre-soaked wipes are made to keep you dry for up to seven days (yes, really!) with just a few swipes. No white marks, no reapplying, and no awkward pit stains mid-day after being outside for 20 minutes. This stuff is STRONG, so make sure you do a spot test first — especially if you have sensitive review: "For anyone who might be skeptical, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sports coat before noon. Enter: the SweatBlock product. I've had it for three weeks and it is life changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat. I was sweating through my shirt on my back — BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGeePrice: $15.99+ (originally $19.99+, avaible in three pack sizes) 20% off a vegan and paraben-free ultra-dark self-tanner to give yourself a vacation-worthy ~sunkissed glow~ in just an hour, no sun or tanning bed exposure required. Promising review: "Name the brand, I've tried it. The struggle is so real for me with pink/cool undertones in my skin because every self-tanner gives an orange tint. I used to only use St. Tropez because it was the only one that didn't, but I always got annoyed that it was never very dark. This tanner however is literally the best I've ever used. It's super forgiving with streaks, very fast, and no orange tint. The amount of compliments I get is wild. Literally, this is part of my summer starter-pack, and I'm living my best bronzed life." —LMWPrice: $7.98 (originally $9.97) 22% off (that's the lowest price this goes for!) a compact Levoit air purifier with a true HEPA filter to help tackle summer grievances, like pollen, wildfire smoke, pet dander, and other particles in the air that are keeping your home from smelling fresh. Plus this has smart features, like the ability to control it from your phone *and* the ability to set a schedule, so it'll automatically set itself to "sleep mode" with "no nightlight" at 10 p.m. every night. Now that's smart. Maitland says: "I have the non-smart version of this in my bedroom, and I love it. Just note that when you get it, you need to take the filter out and unwrap it before using!"Promising review: "I waited over a month to write a review — this air purifier is amazing!! It's one of those products that you don't understand how much of a difference it makes until you get one. I have two cats, and my house is all carpet, so the house can smell stagnant sometimes, especially if the AC is off. One of my cats also has asthma, so I got this air purifier mostly for her, but it's made such a HUGE difference in the way my home smells. Since having it, my house has consistently smelled fresh, clean, and odorless. Even after forgetting to clean the litter boxes, my house has not smelled like cat litter since I've had it. It's very easy to set up. I bought a little plant stand to put it on so it wouldn't be on the carpet. It's very quiet, and the app is easy to use. It tells you the life of your filter, which is super helpful, and these filters last for a long time! You can set it up to be on a schedule, so you can set it up once and just forget about it. I recommend this air purifier to everyone. I'm NEVER worried about my house smelling anything but clean now. I would repurchase this a thousand times over." —haileePrice: $69.97 (originally $89.99; available in black and white) 31% off a Dash My Mug ice cream maker that'll easily make ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and frozen yogurt galore — all you have to do is freeze the base for 24 hours, and then you'll be able to whip up your icy, delicious concoctions in 20 minutes. This comes with two bowls so you can even make two flavors at a time! Promising review: "The best little ice cream maker that ever was. I used this to make dairy-free ice cream and look at it!! It tastes as good as it looks!! The price is good. It is super easy to use, easy to clean, and easy to store. It's small and compact and doesn't take up a huge amount of space. We got the double bowl one because we have two kids and it's great. Hands down a summer fave!" —ShabanaPrice: $27.54 for the maker and two bowls (originally $39.99; also available with one bowl) — and shop all the Dash deals here. 40% off It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50 (the lowest price ever!) — reviewers say it truly lives up to its skin-enhancing claims. This is a great option if you're looking for a foundation-like full coverage formula, but still want something that doesn't feel super heavy on the skin. It's designed to color correct while adding coverage, and the niacinamide will help even out any dark spots over time. Promising review: "I think I've found my forever. The only change I'll have to make is a lighter color from summer to winter. It covers more than most CC or BB creams but is not as heavy as a full foundation. Stays put and doesn't accentuate my fine lines. It feels soft and dewy all day without being shiny. The consistency goes on evenly and doesn't need much blending (other than out of my silver hairline), and there were so many shades that it's a great match. It's a quality formulation that saves me time and gives me peace of mind each day because it goes on quick and easy and doesn't need messing with again other than a quick brush of translucent powder on my T-zone halfway through my day." —Kristy $28.20 (originally $47, available in 29 shades) 41% off a waterproof pouch to keep your phone and other "doesn't play well with water"–type gadgets safe. Not only does this keep it safe, but you can still use the touchscreen with it, meaning you can take underwater travel photos galore 🐠🐟🐡. It fits any phone up to 100 mm x 170 mm (or about 3.9 inches x 6.7 inches). It's also a great fix for keeping out sand and dirt (and a great option for runners, if you're caught in the rain but still want to be able to toggle through your music options).Check out a TikTok of the waterproof phone case in action. Promising review: "I purchased this case in July for an upcoming canoe trip with a friend, and as luck would have it, we flipped our canoe. I just assumed my phone would be discovered a thousand years from now and placed in a museum as an ancient artifact. Fast forward to this week. I was contacted via FB by an Alachua County Sheriff's Office diver, and guess what he found? Yup, my phone case with all of the contents intact and dry as a bone! He had to cut the case open, but there was not one single drop of water in it, and he ended up purchasing a case for himself because he was just that impressed!" —Julie McDonaldHere's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about this case: "With these, I find that they're good for about a day due to condensation. So, for a trip, I'll buy two to three. I've used this case to take underwater pics, on boat rides, and have worn it with the lanyard, jumping off a boat into water. So, I really trust these!"Price: $5.58 (typically $9.41; available in 14 colors) Sol De Janeiro's SPF 50 Rio Radiance Body Oil for 40% off — turns out we're all so collectively OBSESSED with the cult-fave "sunshine" scent of their tightening Bum Bum Cream (which is also 20% off!) that they bottled it up for sun protection *and* a lil' bit of glamour. This body oil will not only protect you from the sun's rays, but has a subtle, delightful shimmer ✨ . Also available as an SPF 50 body spray and SPF 50 body lotion! Promising review: "This is perfect for my half sleeve arm, and the best part is it blends great. It has a great smell and makes you sparkle just a teeny bit. Love it and will def be buying more. Wish the cost wasn't quite as high, but I'd say it's worth it still." —Rach MommaPrice: $19.20 (typically $30) Up to 25% off a pair of bike shorts with an unreal following — over 7,500 people wrote glowing 5-star reviews praising these for their durability, comfort, high-quality material, and useful pockets. They're squatproof, lightweight, and going right in your cart. Promising review: "If you're wondering whether these shorts can handle heat, hills, and a hefty helping of cinnamon bread, let me assure you: THEY CAN. I wore these to Dollywood during what I can only describe as a sauna with roller coasters, and these babies held up like champs. Fit? Perfect. Comfort? Like a gentle hug for my thighs. Breathable? I didn't feel like a baked potato despite 90+ degrees and 98% humidity. They didn't ride up, roll down, or betray me in any way, even while chasing my kids and sprinting to beat the line for cinnamon bread. And the pockets? ROOMY. I fit my phone, a park map, and a half-melted snack bar in there with zero bounce. If these shorts can survive Dollywood, they can survive anything." —AprilPrice: $14.98+ (regularly $19.99; available in women's sizes XS–3X, three inseams, and 11 on-sale colors) 30% off a cult-favorite liquid eyeliner from Stila designed to stay put all day in the summer heat – no smudging from sweat or reapplying required. Perfect for liquid eyeliner novices, the felt tip is user-friendly and delivers smooth, precise lines every time. When applying, use the tip of the pen to create a thin line. For a bold, thicker line, apply with slightly more out more Stila deals here!Promising review: "Sheer perfection. Super easy to apply. I was never good with these type of eyeliners, but after reviewing this product I figured I will give it a eyeliner I ever owned. It goes on smooth with a sharp line, no messing up. From the first time I applied it I couldn't believe how well it worked. Cat-eye done in a second or need to re-apply or fixing it later as it stays on nicely all day. I use it with the little black palette from Lorac, which came with primer, and I am not sure if that helps but I put my eye shadow on, then eyeliner and I am good to go. It stays put ALL DAY, just as the name promises. And as other reviewers mentioned, using this product you will be a pro in applying eyeliner in no time. That's how nicely it goes on. I can't say enough good things about it!" — $16.80 (originally $24) 29% off Oxo's compact Cold Brew Rapid Brewer to make cheap, delicious cold brew in FIVE MINUTES (!!) with results so quick and delicious that reviewers love it more than their beloved Aeropresses (and even call it "Aeropress 2.0").

Check out a TikTok of the Oxo Rapid Brewer in action. Promising review: "I'm in love with various forms of coffee preparation and I've tried all forms of equipment to make them at home. If asked what I prefer for a quick cappuccino, that's easy. This OXO Rapid Brewer. I've played with my Aeropress for over two decades, including all the necessary add-ons and doo-dads to get close to what this machine does on the first attempt. Get comfortable with a bag of fresh beans, a quality burr grinder, and friends. Do rounds of blind taste tests. I think you'll agree." —Cynthia Price: $28.49 (originally $39.99) — and check out the rest of Oxo's Prime Day Deals for more discounts on clever kitchen products! 29% off a "spray and go" enzyme-based laundry stain remover that works its magic in one wash to help you instantly get rid of all that caked-in dirt, discolored dried sweat, oil stains, or deodorant residue on your favorite summer clothes, so you don't have to do any heavy scrubbing yourself. Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action. Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase. Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods).Price: $9.99+ (typically $13.99; available in different sizes) 50% off a ridiculously durable, windproof travel umbrella with a LIFETIME warranty, making it the true last umbrella you'll ever buy. This uses fiberglass ribs instead of flimsier aluminum, which helps it keep its shape in 70+ MPH winds, and still manages to be super lightweight and compact for travel. Check out a TikTok of the Tumella umbrella in action. Promising review: "Why would anyone want to purchase another umbrella with the warranty this one gives? Not like you will need the warranty with this build quality. Almost every umbrella I have owned has five, maybe six, thin metal rods held together with a tiny pin to form the frame. This thing has reinforced ribs, is as light as you can get, looks great, and all at a low price. Yeah, this is all I need." —E. SmokerPrice: $14.98+ (typically $29.99; available in 25 colors and packs of two) Up to 32% off a Poppi 12-pack (a new lowest price!) in case you're a total fiend for this prebiotic soda. Each can has 5 grams of sugar and 30 calories, but tastes quite delish. Promising review: "I tried Poppi out of curiosity and was genuinely surprised by how good it is. It's not overly sweet like most sodas, and it has a nice, clean fizz with a little tang from the apple cider vinegar — but not in a weird or overpowering way. It actually feels refreshing, and I like that it doesn't leave a heavy or syrupy aftertaste. I've started keeping a few flavors in the fridge, and it's become my go-to when I want something fizzy without all the sugar. I like this variety pack because it has both my husband's and my favorite flavors." —ElveroguePrice: $18.78+ (regularly $27.88; discount available on seven variety packs) 37% off a hands-free wearable fan you can easily clip to your waistband or wear around your neck for some instant, refreshing cooling power on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop. Promising review: "These were a lifesaver! We used them while at multiple theme parks in the summer, and they have worked wonderfully. The fact that they clip to your waist, hold your shirt down, and blow air up your shirt is a way better way to keep cool than just an external fan. I have bought several of these, and would highly recommend! A couple of these lasted all day, as long as you are not constantly running them full blast." —Greg"I saw this rechargeable fan on TikTok, but found it cheaper on Amazon. It has four different settings. Comfortable to wear. It has decent battery life. Noise level is minimal. Keeps you cool. The clip easily connects to your jeans, shorts, or pants to help you stay cool in the heat. I'm a big guy living in Alabama, so it's been great for me! Good, quality product." —Misty ReynoldsPrice: $18.98 (typically $29.99) 33% off a Ninja Artisan outdoor pizza oven (the lowest it's been!) with an impressive 5-in-1 functionality that can make pizza, bake, broil, warm, and proof.

It includes the pizza oven, a 12" x 12" pizza stone, 12" x 12" bake pan, and quick start guide with inspiration recipes!Promising review: "Wow, what a powerful oven. I divided the pizza dough into three sections and cooked pizza at three temperatures to find the best combination, after using the dough recipe in the included book. I liked the 550 temperature because the crust was not overly cooked or undercooked. You definitely can not walk away from the oven or get busy making another pizza as it cooks super fast. It's best to test out the oven to find your sweet spot. I'm in love with the versatility of this oven. I've been wanting to cook more pizza outside in the summer to reduce heating the house. Highly recommend this oven " —BrooksPrice: $199.95 (originally $299.99) — and shop all the Ninja deals here 31% off a '90s-themed insulated lunchbox for keeping your watermelon slices perfectly chilled or stashing your sunscreen and snacks during your road-trip or beach day.

This potent, super long-lasting, and decadently delicious rollerball is just one of MANY that Kuumba is well known for ... hence why TikTok keeps selling them out 😬. Kuumba Made is a small business that specializes in roll-on scents. Promising review: "The scent is absolutely divine — sweet, warm, and rich without being overly overpowering. It's the perfect vanilla fragrance that feels both cozy and elegant. I love how natural and smooth it smells, with no artificial or overly sugary notes." —Tamara Jones Price: $7.99 (typically $9.99) 20% off a Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist Fan (that's the first-ever recorded discount!!) for anyone who wants a bit of a god complex this summer — this whisper-quiet, cordless, remote-controlled gizmo can lower temps up to 12 degrees indoors and outdoors, and can be felt from up to 70 feet away. Promising review: "We love this fan. Not only can you spray water through an attachment that goes to the fan, but you can charge the fan itself, disconnect it from the stand, set it up on a table, and it will run for about four hours with no electricity required. It will also run for about four hours before having to be recharged. You won't regret this purchase." —Nan LindstromPrice: $199.99 (originally $249.99) 35% off a set of high-velocity fans reviewers *love* to use for garages, gyms, and workshops for an extra blast of cool air that's designed to effectively flow through the whole space. This even comes with a wall-mounting system if you want the air to flow from above! Promising review: "These are just great fans... put out a large amount of air, all metal, and last for years. I have window AC units and put one in front of each, and it makes a huge difference in cooling and electric bills." —Dennis LodgePrice: $109.99 for a set of two (originally $169.99) 23% off a set of lightweight, oh-so-dainty ruffled pajamas that are an EXTRA steal, considering they were inspired by the $89 Piyama version.

If you're looking for breezy warm weather loungewear, this adorable set fits the bill! Promising review: "So comfortable and so, so cute! From a pajama lover — I think these might just be my new favorites. I've tried all brands (designer and otherwise) and these top my list without a doubt. The ruffles are such a cute touch! Highly recommend!" —Melissa Price: $19.99 (typically $25.99; available in women's sizes S–XXL and 10 colors). 33% off a retro-style Marshall Bluetooth speaker (its lowest price yet) to bring along to all your summer cookouts that yes, is indisputably gorgeous, but also ridiculously high quality. Reviewers are in love with the crisp, clear sound, the deep bass, and how easy it is to set up and use. Promising review: I had been looking at these for a long time. One of my favorite Amazon purchases ever! The speaker itself is gorgeous! And the sound quality is top notch! If you've been thinking about it, just get one. You won't regret it." —Jessica ColbyPrice: $199.99 (originally $299.99; available in two colors on sale) 20% off a 62-quart wheeled Coleman cooler (tied for its lowest price ever) that flexes so hard that it stays ice cold for up to five (!!!) days, making it the ultimate cooler for camping, outdoor parties, and beach trips. Take THAT, summer heat! Promising review: "Took ours camping, had us and three kids opening and closing it all week — ice still frozen by the end of the trip. Brought the cooler home, didn't get to unpack it until two days after the trip, opened it up and found a beer — Coors with the mountains still blue. So, for a total of six days outside in the heat (high was 89), it was still ice cold. Best money I've ever spent on a cooler. The lid doesn't stick, and the wheels make it so easy to tote around. We filled ours up to the top, fit eight Philly's, a pack of hot dogs, a pack of sausages, water, frozen water bottles, a total of 32 beers, chocolate bars (that didn't melt), 12 breakfast burritos, a pack of ham, and a pack of bologna. Compact, but it holds a lot. 10 out of 10." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $59.99 (originally $74.99) 20% off Essence's Drop of Sunshine Bronzing Drops, which is an extra steal since reviewers consider this the more affordable version of the beloved $39 Drunk Elephant version. This buildable, hydrating formula is an easy way to add a ~sunkissed touch~ to your beauty routine without breaking the bank (or compromising your skin!). Promising review: "I love this so I ordered a second for backup! Depending on my day I will add no more than one or two drops to my moisturizer or my primer. Takes away the winter pallor of my face which definitely has not had enough sun lately. The bottle is small, but you don't need to use much. Reasonably priced for the amount. I would say buy it." —IncognitoPrice: $4.79 (typically $5.99). Up to 47% off a set of retro-style crew socks just *begging* to be worn with your favorite biker shorts and oversize tee for the ultimate breezy summer fit.

I will be buying more in various colors." —JDPrice: $8.94+ for a set of five (typically $15.99; available in seven styles) $30 off a *folding* Adirondack-style chair (the lowest price it goes for) so you can kick back, relax, and watch the fireflies while sipping your sweat tea all summer long. Promising review: "Love the quality of this product! Only thing is you might need someone else helping put it together because it is a little difficult to get the arms on alone but other than that super easy directions! Definitely will buy again! Might need more chairs for the backyard! Great quality for the price! Mom tested, Daughter approved!" —Amanda PalmerPrice: $99.98 (typically $129.99; available in eight colors) 21% off a reversible vintage-inspired floral bathing suit with adjustable, oh-so-sweet bow straps that are almost too cute to exist. Like, spare some cuteness for the rest of the beach, will you?? Reviewers mention if you're in between sizes, to size up! Promising review: "This suit is so pretty! I was nervous that for the price, it would be poor quality, but it looks just like the photos. The material is nice and thick, and I love that it's padded. I'm between a small and medium, so I sized up based on other reviews." —Morgan MeldrumPrice: $28.79+ (typically $35.99; available in women's sizes 2–14 and seven styles). 20% off a retro-style snow cone machine that will simply make your backyard the most popular place on the BLOCK this summer. 'Tis the season to get lawless with flavoring syrups, condensed milk, and delicious combos galore. Promising review: "Perfect for the kids! Great way to make a nice treat to help cool the kids down during the hot summer days. My kids are able to use it even to sell snow cones and make a little extra money. Perfect size, works great, easy to clean, inexpensive, and easy to maintain. Not that loud when using it and it makes the perfect texture needed for a perfect snow cone." —Mary Ann WylerPrice: $39.99 (typically $49.99, available in two colors) 30% off Vacation's Classic Whip SPF 30 (the lowest price ever !!!), a wildly beloved "dessert for your skin" that feels so lightweight and decadent to apply that reviewers can't get enough of it.

You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! Promising review: "Smells SO GOOD! This sunscreen smells so nostalgic and I love the whipped cream play. Makes me much more excited about putting sunscreen on. A little bit goes a long way, and it's pretty thick on the skin. Breaks down into a lotion kind of and turned out to be too oily for my face specifically, but love it for my body. Will be buying this again!" —averyPrice: $16.10 (typically $23) — with a free air freshener included! 37% off a fast-acting, refillable plug-in fly trap that has a range of up to 400 feet luring all the flies, fruit flies, moths, and gnats that may have snuck in while the kiddos kept running in and out of the backyard. The best part?? The "trap" part is on the back, so you don't have to behold a little bug graveyard in your kitchen when you flick on the lights in the morning. Check out a TikTok of the plug-in fly trap in review: "I can't say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It's a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" —Chris H. Price: $11.33 (typically $17.97; also available as a two-pack) 20% off a floral '90s-style dress so lightweight that OOPS you'll forget it's on your human body. Perfect for anyone who is still just short of melting like the Wicked Witch this summer. Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord says about it: "TBH, this is a great layering piece to have even when the temps start to drop! I love pairing it with a cardigan on a cool morning and shedding it when it gets hotter throughout the day. It's comfy because it's got elastic in the back and adjustable straps, plus a zipper on the side so you can adjust it to your perfect fit and take it off without messing with it. It is genuinely so breezy that it feels like I've got nothing on when I'm wearing it. I've only worn it a few times this season but every time people have asked where I got it from — I got the brown one, but I'm considering going back for the green!"Price: $31.18 (originally $38.99; available in women's sizes XXS–XL and 10 styles) 20% off a set of espresso martini mix packets that make this cocktail staple a little TOO easy to recreate at home — all you need to do is add vodka and water, and BOOM.

The instant I put this on, I had relief. OMG I cannot say enough about this stuff. Buy it. Keep it on hand. Great product. Thank you, Burt's Bees!" —D.S. Price: $7.02 (typically $9.99) 30% off the iconic SPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar, a K-beauty staple with a curved balm stick style that makes it super easy to apply, and a non-sticky, white cast-free formula that plays ABSURDLY well with makeup.

I've been looking for a stick sunscreen and this was just exactly what was needed!! I'm a medium-toned Black woman and looking for something without a white cast is always a challenge. I have applied it on my bare skin and there isn't a white cast at all! It's a 'soft matte' finish, for sure, and looks like natural skin. Like you're not wearing anything at all." —Martina"One of the best facial sunscreens I've ever used. The design is amazing and contours your face perfectly. It works well on its own or layered under makeup. No issues with clogging my pores or breakouts. I wore it on a trip to Mexico, and it did its job flawlessly.

This cult-classic, slightly glossy shade is beyond "holy grail" status — it matches skin tones so beautifully that I'm personally starting to suspect witchcraft, after seeing so many TikToks of it subtly transforming entire beauty looks with just a few swipes. I was very adamant about not buying this for the longest time because I am stubborn about "expensive" beauty products, but this is worth every penny and then some. It's so lightweight and layerable, it's foolproof to apply, and I have yet to wear a single outfit it doesn't complement??? I love watching it instantly elevate a casual look or add simple elegance to dressy ones. I wear it every day now, and after weeks of use, I've barely made a dent. Also, and maybe this is just me, but I tend to get pigment on my teeth with a lot of lip products, and I've simply never had an issue with this magic watch this TikTok of someone using it on their lips AND cheeks, because I did and oops, this lipstick FELL into my review: "This lipstick is a game changer. It goes on and stays on well. It is pretty sheer, but buildable. I have trouble with most red lipsticks turning pink after a bit. So, I will put this over my other colors, and it absolutely makes a difference. It's a great staple to keep in your cosmetic bag. It is something I will definitely buy again. You should absolutely try it!" —Amy $17.50 (originally $25; also available in pink honey!) 30% off a bag of FIRECRACKER! POPSICLE! FLAVORED!!!

Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Liquid I.V. does an amazing job hydrating. I purchase their product for 40+ employees who work in a construction-related industry. Hydration is so important while working in the hot Georgia Sun, and this product aids in this 100%. Now, let's talk about the firecracker flavor! When we produced these for our crew, ages 23–60, all of their eyes lit up, and they were super excited. Many of them did not know this flavor existed. Quite honestly, I didn't either until I came across them on Amazon. They all loved the flavor. In particular, the ones who were older kept telling me it tasted like their childhood. Seriously, who hasn't stood outside an ice cream truck ordering the Firecracker Popsicle?" —Disney DivaPrice: $16.54 for 16 packets (typically $24.99) Up to 30% off Case-Mate's iconic waterproof beach totes, which are, of course, ridiculously roomy and useful, but more importantly, ABSURDLY cute.

Promising review: "I've been wanting a sturdy and cute beach bag that was not mesh and or a basic tote. This is it! It comes with a dry bag for phone. The handles are thick. The iridescent color looks so cool in the sun and it's the perfect size. I fit two towels, a sunscreen bag, two changes of clothes, a speaker, goggles, and snacks. With extra room too. I love the new silver black color but this purple was on sale so I went for it. Matches perfectly with my black swimsuit." —Daniela GPrice: $55.99+ (typically $79.99; available in four styles) 25% off a reviewer-beloved 2-in-1 nausea relief inhaler designed to work FAST on spontaneous nausea, motion sickness, morning sickness, and general queasiness (having a human body is hard). Summer road trips and cruises just got a HECK of a lot easier! You can either use it as a scent inhaler or rub it directly on the tip of your nose for relief. Check out a TikTok of the nausea relief inhaler in action. Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy I'd reach for it. I'm sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot - and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&LillyPrice: $9.74 for a pack of two (typically $12.99; also available in a pack of four) 30% off a Dash My Mug ice cream maker that'll easily make ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and frozen yogurt galore — all you have to do is freeze the base for 24 hours, and then you'll be able to whip up your icy, delicious concoctions in 20 minutes.

It tastes as good as it looks!! The price is good. It is super easy to use, easy to clean, and easy to store. It's small and compact and doesn't take up a huge amount of space.

Check out a TikTok of the AirPods Pro in action. Promising review: "These might be the best earbuds. They have a lot of features, clear audio, and mic sound. The best part of this one is the design choice Apple went with this, this actually stays in your ear, unlike the other Apple AirPods. It's even better than the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, and this is coming from a guy who switch from Samsung to iPhone. If you gonna get some AirPods save up for this one and get it on sale, Amazon sells it cheaper than any other stores." —Davier BoldsPrice: $149.99 (originally $249 (and currently $249 at Apple); typically $189.99 at Amazon) And 32% off a pair of waterproof, sweatproof wireless earbuds with some real AirPods Pro energy — except these feature a charging case that, bless its technologically savvy heart, has an LED display letting you know exactly how much charge is left.

Love these — easy to learn and to use. Best thing about them? Well, everything, lol. Good sound, they hold a charge for long periods, and I don't have to worry about them losing power. I can answer my phone easily and then go back to music without a problem. Definitely a great buy and worth the money! Love this color, too!" —Erin"These are the best quality earbuds for the price! I found them through TikTok and have zero regrets. I'd definitely repurchase if needed." —HamrickPrice: $25.98+ (typically $37.99; available in nine colors) 41% off a waterproof pouch to keep your phone and other "doesn't play well with water"–type gadgets safe.

Promising review: "I purchased this case in July for an upcoming canoe trip with a friend, and as luck would have it, we flipped our canoe. I just assumed my phone would be discovered a thousand years from now and placed in a museum as an ancient artifact. Fast forward to this week. I was contacted via FB by an Alachua County Sheriff's Office diver, and guess what he found? Yup, my phone case with all of the contents intact and dry as a bone! He had to cut the case open, but there was not one single drop of water in it, and he ended up purchasing a case for himself because he was just that impressed!" —Julie McDonaldHere's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about this case: "With these, I find that they're good for about a day due to condensation. So, for a trip, I'll buy two to three. I've used this case to take underwater pics, on boat rides, and have worn it with the lanyard, jumping off a boat into water.

This one is cheap, gives you instant length, and holds up well in the summer heat — reviewers call it out as an excellent comparison for Too Faced's "Better Than Sex" and Benefit's "They're Real." Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord has to say about it: Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of all the 5-star reviews and now I will never look back!! Putting it on is like giving my eyelashes butterfly wings. It doesn't get clumpy, it stays put ALL the livelong day no matter how much you sweat, and you can apply it on very lightly if you don't want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each review: "AWESOME. I've always bought overpriced mascara. I'm very picky and hesitant, but I saw some reviews saying how awesome this was. I'll never go back to 'Better Than Sex' mascara because that's what I always use, and I compare it to that. This is the best mascara!! I'll never go back." —patrick haukPrice: $10.48 for three (originally $14.97) 29% off a "spray and go" enzyme-based laundry stain remover that works its magic in one wash to help you instantly get rid of all that caked-in dirt, discolored dried sweat, oil stains, or deodorant residue on your favorite summer clothes, so you don't have to do any heavy scrubbing yourself. Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action. Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase. Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods).Price: $9.99+ (typically $13.99; available in different sizes) 33% off a hands-free wearable fan you can easily clip to your waistband or wear around your neck for some instant, refreshing cooling power on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop. Promising review: "These were a lifesaver! We used them while at multiple theme parks in the summer, and they have worked wonderfully. The fact that they clip to your waist, hold your shirt down, and blow air up your shirt is a way better way to keep cool than just an external fan. I have bought several of these, and would highly recommend! A couple of these lasted all day, as long as you are not constantly running them full blast." —Greg"I saw this rechargeable fan on TikTok, but found it cheaper on Amazon. It has four different settings. Comfortable to wear. It has decent battery life. Noise level is minimal. Keeps you cool. The clip easily connects to your jeans, shorts, or pants to help you stay cool in the heat. I'm a big guy living in Alabama, so it's been great for me! Good, quality product." —Misty ReynoldsPrice: 19.98 (typically $29.99) 33% off a Ninja Artisan outdoor pizza oven (the lowest it's been!) with an impressive 5-in-1 functionality that can make pizza, bake, broil, warm, and proof.

It includes the pizza oven, a 12" x 12" pizza stone, 12" x 12" bake pan, and quick start guide with inspiration recipes!Promising review: "Wow, what a powerful oven. I divided the pizza dough into three sections and cooked pizza at three temperatures to find the best combination, after using the dough recipe in the included book. I liked the 550 temperature because the crust was not overly cooked or undercooked. You definitely can not walk away from the oven or get busy making another pizza as it cooks super fast. It's best to test out the oven to find your sweet spot. I'm in love with the versatility of this oven. I've been wanting to cook more pizza outside in the summer to reduce heating the house. Highly recommend this oven " —BrooksPrice: $199.95 (originally $299.99) — and shop all the Ninja deals here 31% off a '90s-themed insulated lunchbox complete with a zipped front pocket and a shoulder strap so you can rock your lunch like it's the hottest accessory on the block.

Promising review: "We love this fan. Not only can you spray water through an attachment that goes to the fan, but you can charge the fan itself, disconnect it from the stand, set it up on a table, and it will run for about four hours with no electricity required. It will also run for about four hours before having to be recharged.

I have window AC units and put one in front of each, and it makes a huge difference in cooling and electric bills." —Dennis LodgePrice: $104.99 for a set of two (originally $169.99) 33% off a retro-style Marshall Bluetooth speaker (its lowest price yet) for all your summer hangs that yes, is indisputably gorgeous, but also ridiculously high quality. Reviewers are in love with the crisp, clear sound, the deep bass, and how easy it is to set up and use. Promising review: I had been looking at these for a long time. One of my favorite Amazon purchases ever! The speaker itself is gorgeous! And the sound quality is top notch! If you've been thinking about it, just get one. You won't regret it." —Jessica ColbyPrice: $199.99 (originally $299.99; available in two colors on sale) 20% off a 62-quart wheeled Coleman cooler (tied for its lowest price ever) that flexes so hard that it stays ice cold for up to five (!!!) days, making it the ultimate cooler for camping, outdoor parties, and beach trips.

Brought the cooler home, didn't get to unpack it until two days after the trip, opened it up and found a beer — Coors with the mountains still blue. So, for a total of six days outside in the heat (high was 89), it was still ice cold. Best money I've ever spent on a cooler. The lid doesn't stick, and the wheels make it so easy to tote around. We filled ours up to the top, fit eight Philly's, a pack of hot dogs, a pack of sausages, water, frozen water bottles, a total of 32 beers, chocolate bars (that didn't melt), 12 breakfast burritos, a pack of ham, and a pack of bologna.

Promising review: "Love the quality of this product! Only thing is you might need someone else helping put it together because it is a little difficult to get the arms on alone but other than that super easy directions! Definitely will buy again! Might need more chairs for the backyard! Great quality for the price! Mom tested, Daughter approved!" —Amanda PalmerPrice: $99.99 (typically $129.99; available in eight colors) 21% off a reversible vintage-inspired floral bathing suit with adjustable, oh-so-sweet bow straps that are almost too cute to exist.

Check out a TikTok of the plug-in fly trap in review: "I can't say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It's a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" —Chris H. Price: $11.99 (typically $17.97; also available as a two-pack) 20% off a floral '90s-style dress so lightweight that OOPS you'll forget it's on your human body. Perfect for anyone who is still just short of melting like the Wicked Witch this summer. Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord says about it: "TBH, this is a great layering piece to have even when the temps start to drop! I love pairing it with a cardigan on a cool morning and shedding it when it gets hotter throughout the day. It's comfy because it's got elastic in the back and adjustable straps, plus a zipper on the side so you can adjust it to your perfect fit and take it off without messing with it. It is genuinely so breezy that it feels like I've got nothing on when I'm wearing it. I've only worn it a few times this season but every time people have asked where I got it from — I got the brown one, but I'm considering going back for the green!"Price: $31.18 (originally $38.99; available in women's sizes XXS–XL and 10 styles) 20% off a set of espresso martini mix packets that make this cocktail staple a little TOO easy to recreate at home — all you need to do is add vodka and water, and BOOM.

THE HISTORY OF ALDI The German discount supermarket chain came to Ireland in 1999. Aldi's first few shops opened in November 1999, with locations in Sandyford, Dublin, and Ballincollig, Cork. By the mid-2000s, Aldi bosses had opened numerous stores, focusing on providing high-quality products at low prices. As the recession hit 2008-2012, Aldi's popularity grew as consumers became more price-conscious. The supermarket giant continued it's expansion in Ireland between 2013-2018, while refurbishing existing stores. By 2018, Aldi had over 130 shops throughout the country. The chain began to focus on expanding its range of Irish-made products and supporting local producers. In 2023, Aldi had over 140 stores in Ireland. The store invested in sustainability initiatives, such as reducing plastic packaging and increasing the availability of organic and eco-friendly products. Aldi chiefs said: 'At Aldi we are committed to supporting Irish suppliers. Developed in partnership with Bord Bia, Grow with Aldi is designed to help the very best Irish suppliers develop their brand. 'To date, we've invested €10 million in our Grow with Aldi development programme in a bid to find the very best Irish suppliers. 'As a result, for a limited time only there are over 47 new products, from 27 Irish suppliers available in store.' Aldi have introduced technological advancements with self-checkout systems and contactless payment options. 5 You can pick up girls skirts from €1.65 Credit: Aldi 5 Aldi is also selling a range of essentials Credit: Aldi
