Why You Can Trust CNET 7 Post-Prime Day Deals Guaranteed to Delight and Surprise
Prime Day may well be over, but there are still some great deals on feel-good purchases that bring both fun and excitement.
Alas, Prime Day is over now, and it's taken a lot of the best deals with it. However, a lot of the best deals are actually still going, which means that you can save big on things like headphones, televisions, laptops and soundbars. Those things are serious things though, but that's not what we want to focus on right now.
Instead, let's get weird. There are other reasons to shop during this event, opportunities to fill your life with things that will leave everyone around you delighted and confused while also saving you money. Here are some more fun deals for the second day of Prime Day sales.
26-inch dino nugget plush
Everyone you know either remembers eating dino nuggets or still eats them today, and most of them have never seen a giant dino nugget they can curl up with on the couch. Today you can not only provide that service, but do so for 50% less than usual.
Indoor Smores Fire Pit
I love a good evening with friends, and I love smores. When I learned it was possible to quickly drop a small fire pit on a table so everyone could roast marshmallows, there was no hesitation. These kits improve every social function, and brings smiles to every person who uses them. And at 50% off, you can afford to stock up on the good marshmallows.
300 glow-in-the-dark mushrooms
It costs only $10 to be the person who leaves little glowing mushrooms all around your friends and families houses, which is a really great deal if you ask me. Do it; there is no downside.
Gracula Garlic Crusher
I have a genuine soft spot for all of the silly yet functional things Ototo makes for the kitchen, but this vampire-themed garlic crusher is easily among my favorites. And despite its novelty appearance, it does a better job processing garlic than several other shiny metal things I have owned in the past.
Aztec Death Whistle
If you're a fan of the spookier months of the year, there's a chance you're aware of what a spectacular creepy sound this whistle makes. And if you've got friends who enjoy the same kinds of things, you will both delight and confuse them when you pull this thing out and blow as hard as you can. Just be careful where you do so, these whistles can be loud.
Blendjet 2 Portable Blender
No shade to the lovely folks at Blendjet, their battery-powered blenders make it super easy to make a frozen treat out of fresh ingredients wherever you are. That having been said, I can say from experience the looks you get from other folks when you pull out a blender and start making a fresh smoothie has earned this clever thing a spot on this list. Plus, you can get one with SpongBob's face all over it. They are 10% off in various designs right now.
TikTok scrolling remote
Bluetooth-enabled shutter buttons that take pictures while your phone is not in your hand is not a new idea, but these buttons have recently found a new purpose. You can swipe from one TikTok video to the next without touching your phone, which means if you're having lunch you can watch without being taken away from your meal. It's a simple gadget, but makes you look like a wizard when enjoying the button in public.
