Prime Day runs from 6 to 7 October. Outside of the Dyson AirWrap and luxurious Drowsy sleep mask, it’s also a chance to save on your boring, but necessary adult purchases.
I have been trying to find a cleaner dishwasher detergent that was free of fragrances, plastics and harmful chemicals. This one has been the only one that worked without leaving any film or residue. Jennifer Regan
If you have ever used a bad paper towel, then you understand the importance of one that does its job well. These, from Viva, are strong enough to be reused – as long as the mess you’re cleaning isn’t too gross. Just rinse, wring and dry them out. Megan Reynolds
The drink I likened to the green apple shampoo of my childhood (in a good way, I promise) in our recent story highlighting the apple food trend is now 32% off. LG
I love the convenience of these vegan protein shakes to refuel post-run or hot yoga sessions. They’re pretty pricey, so this is a good chance to try them while they’re 25% off. LG
Everist Shampoo Concentrate is excellent. It’s concentrated (so you have to buy it less often – great if you’re forgetful like me), smells just enough to be pleasant, but not noticeable. The container is made of recyclable packaging and it’s never tested on animals. It also works: my hair is shiny, bouncy, lovely after wash day. Jessie Willms
If you have synthetic workout clothes that never seem to quite shake their stench, even after laundering, this powder is the solution. Add a scoop into the washer with your clothes, set it to the pre-soak cycle, then let the enzymes work their magic. You will notice the difference. Nick Mokey
Carrying bulky jugs of liquid detergent to my building’s laundry room is a hassle. These plastic-free, concentrated laundry strips are light, pre-portioned, smell great (get the Fresh Linen scent) and actually work. (As a Canadian, I feel obligated to mention: this is a BC-based company.) JW
From blowouts, food stains and spills on the couch, this has saved me countless times. Not only is it a staple in our laundry room, but I also keep one in my diaper bag at all times. JR
Running out of cat litter sucks. Carrying a giant box of cat litter from the drugstore back to my apartment also sucks! This brand, preferred by me and therefore also by my ancient cat Daisy, does the job and is currently on a teensy discount. MR
Hill’s Science Diet Adult 1-6 Small & Mini Dry Dog Food
My mom will attest that our eight-year-old toy poodle, Cocoa, gets nothing but the best, and this extends to his dog food. Right now, the food he’s eagerly chowed down on for years is 30% off. LG
There is nothing my cats want more than these tiny tubes of mana from feline heaven. Not squirrels, not birds, not catnip. They grasp for it with their tiny paws and lap it down like ice-cream … blissfully unaware that you’re clipping their claws, clipping matted fur, or applying flea and tick deterrent. If you haven’t yet discovered the power of Churu, this is a great opportunity to try 10 at the same price you’d normally need to buy 120 to get. NM
