1. Under $5: Our favorite affordable citrus juicer

Now, you’ve probably never considered using a wooden reamer as a citrus juicer—but hear me out, they’re great. It requires you to hold the citrus in one hand and press the reamer into the flesh with the other, so it’s a little messy. But this from OXO one yielded one of the highest juice counts of all the citrus juicers we’ve tested, which it why it’s our favorite affordable citrus juicer. Plus, you’ll look like a cool bartender while doing so. Right now, you can get it for its lowest price and under $5.

2. Lowest price: The best robot vacuum we’ve ever tested

Robot vacuums are great for keeping floors nice and tidy each and every day, but they come with one major flaw—the fact that you have to empty out their dirt bins all the time. It may seem small, but it becomes some extra work over time. Thankfully, the iRobot Roomba i7+ solved that problem because it can actually empty its dirt bin all by itself and keep on vacuuming. It impressed us so much that it scored a perfect 10.0 in our lab tests, making it the best robot vacuum we’ve ever tested. 

This robot vacuum usually retails for a staggering $1,099, but you can save $150 right now, which brings it back to its lowest price. This WiFi-enabled vac also uses smart technology to learn and map out your home, and you can customize how it cleans your home right from an app. If you want to take your laziness up a notch, this is the time to do it.

Right now, you can get a 28-piece set that includes both for just $30. The set comes basically everything you need for baking and storing your delicious meals. This is an incredible deal and a great way to up your meal prep game for the upcoming school year.

We love this speaker because it has great sound, 24 hours of battery life, is pretty reliable no matter where you bring it. At this price, you have no excuse but to turn up the jams.
