Everything We Own and Love for Amazon Prime Big Deals Day 2025

I’ll be honest, Amazon Prime Big Deals Day’s hyper-commercialism gives me the ick. But I also know these deals can genuinely help families stretch their budgets, and over the years, we’ve found some incredible items we use daily that truly earn their keep. Instead of bombarding you with random links, I’m only rounding up the things we personally own, love, and recommend with full confidence.

? I’ll also be sharing the most up-to-date deals on my Amazon Storefront (bookmark it so you can check back quickly!) and posting my curated finds on Instagram Stories throughout Prime Big Deals Day. I’ll share some giveaways on my Instagram feed too.

Here’s the other thing: I’ve tracked prices ahead of time so Amazon can’t pull a fast one by inflating prices just to make a “deal” look good. Prices also tend to increase throughout the day if an item is popular. It’s sneaky, ROYALLY ticks me off, and should honestly be an FTC lawsuit.

So consider me your unofficial scorekeeper, and I’ll do my best to stay on top of it. Since I’ve ordered all of these items before, I know exactly what the prices were in the past.

Historically, some of these discounts are even better than Black Friday. And since I like to start stashing away Christmas gifts and decor in October, these early sales let me cross off my list before Thanksgiving so I can actually sit back and enjoy the season.

So with that in mind, here’s everything in our home (and life!) that’s worth scooping up while it’s on sale.

? Home

• Wingback Storage Bed – We are very limited on closet space in our primary bedroom, so this hydraulic lift-up bed helps us stretch the storage.
• Lutron Caseta Smart Dimmer Switch Kit – We got these for our media room a couple years ago and have been so happy! Easily adds smart lighting control.
• Jimmy Mattress Vacuum Cleaner – Keeps mattresses fresh and dust-free. I give ours a quick pass while washing our sheets. You would not believe how much grossness is hiding in your mattress.
• Dewalt Drywall Sander – If you ever have to do any big sanding projects, this thing is the jam! Hook it up to this shop vac to eliminate dust. All of Dewalt’s tools are on sale, which has been our go-to tool brand for years.

• Safer Home Indoor Plug-In Fly Trap – A discreet way to tackle pesky flies. It’s oddly satisfying to see how many it catches.
• Skylight Calendar Max 27-Inch – Our family’s lifesaver for staying organized! I made it extra “pretty” by framing our Skylight calendar on our command center gallery wall.

• Gashell Washer Dryer Countertop – Just added this to our laundry room! So smart to make a folding table while still giving you the flexibility to access hookups behind the machines.
• Maison d’Hermine Curtains – I’ve been working on a little project with these, but this pattern is so good, I’m planning to use them in another room soon.
• Slobproof Refillable Touch-Up Paint Pen – For quick touch-ups on the fly. I keep one in a kitchen drawer to touch up our cabinets if they get chipped.
• Crystal Caged Ceiling Fan – The most beautiful ceiling fan I’ve ever laid my eyes on. Functional with a touch of glam.

• TheNeat Walking Pad – If you’ve had “compact treadmill” on your wish list, this one’s a keeper.
• Solid Wood Nightstands – These have held up well in Olivia’s room since 2023. (Though I still recommend checking Facebook Marketplace first.)

• Craftmade Ceiling Fan – Quiet and efficient with modern style.
• Feit Electric 5 Color Choice Bulbs – Adjustable light tones in one bulb so you can switch from bright daylight to cozy warm white.
• Smart Outlet Plugs – Set your lamps on smart plugs so you can schedule everything to turn on automatically at dusk or tap them on right from your phone.
• Waterproof Cordless Lamp – My girls love turning it on every day for more light in their dark shower (and also because it’s cozy and cute).

• Empire Register Co Floor Vent Cover – A timeless upgrade from builder-grade.

• Mouthwash Dispenser – Makes our bathroom feel like a hotel.
• Phone Cable Organizer Clips – Keeps cords from tangling everywhere on nightstands and desks.
• Drawer Dividers – Keeps drawers neat and functional. We use them to create shoe slots in our entryway armoire.

• Gold Barstools – These adjustable barstools were seriously the best find for our kitchen.

• Magnolia Home Pace Rug – I just got this neutral rug in natural/stone for the living room makeover and layered it on top of this jute/cotton rug. Love!
• Velvet Swivel Chairs – Our kids have used and abused these for 2 years, and they are still perfect, super comfy, and the fabric cleans up easily.

• Portable Projector – The best for backyard movie season! This one is less than $40 and has over 7,000 5-star reviews. We love this portable movie screen too.

• Wood Hangers – Total closet upgrade!

? Holiday

• Aspen Fir Christmas Tree – One of my favorite slim trees (pictured above)! We’ve had it for 4 Christmas seasons, and it’s still at the top of my list. (Make sure you clip the coupon on the page.)
• Full Christmas Tree – If you like a “chonky” tree, this is a good one!
• Norwegian Spruce Tree – Hands down the best if you prefer a sparse tree. A great option if you’re limited on space.

• Real Touch Norfolk Pine Garland – I add a few more strands to my stash every year to fully deck our home in the most realistic greenery I’ve ever seen. Some of ours have lasted through 5 Christmas seasons at this point.
• Decorative Twist Ties for Garland – Decorating with garland is so much easier with these! And if they show, they’re just part of the decor.

? Kitchen

• Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Coffee Machine – Barista-quality coffee at home! We like it better than Starbucks… it’s seriously ruined us for life.
• Crock-Pot Electric Lunch Box – Robert got this recently for warm lunches on the go!
• Our Place Wonder Oven – I had this saved in my cart for 3 years and finally pulled the trigger this summer to get it during Prime Day in July. We are now hooked!
• Bartesian Duet Cocktail Machine – You can see my full review of it here, but it’s safe to say we’re fans, especially when hosting a big gathering and don’t want to play bartender for everybody.

• Wooden Bread Box with Pod Drawer – Doubles as bread and coffee pod storage! And if you are limited on countertop space, it gets extra brownie points.
• Colander Set – The prettiest little colanders. Ours have held up for years.
• Caraway Ceramic Cookware Set – Non-toxic pots and pans that actually last! (And it helps that they come in lots of pretty colors.)
• Ninja Creami – Homemade ice cream in minutes!
• Ninja Blender – Ours finally bit the dust after over 14 years and using it just about every day. It holds up to the test.
• Meat Masher – The easiest way to break up ground meat. I don’t know how I ever made tacos without it.

• Fireproof Document Pouch – One of the most important things in our home’s emergency kit.

• Women’s Probiotics – I take this every morning for my gut health, and if I accidentally miss and skip a day or two, I feel totally off… which tells me it’s working.
• JSHealth Vitamins Advanced Magnesium+ – It is wild how many health benefits there are to taking magnesium (Google it), and I have truly felt a difference in my mental and physical well-being because of this. I prefer this brand because it has 3 forms of magnesium, not just 1.

• Moisturizing Hair Mask – My hair always looks and feels so much healthier after doing this mask.

✈️ Travel

• Younglingz Ride-On Suitcase – Seeing Regan zoom around on this thing to our gate at the airport is quite a sight to behold (and gives us one less thing to juggle with our own luggage). She’s totally napped on it in the terminals.

• Copper Outdoor Hanging Lantern – Classic outdoor lighting that looks right off the streets of Charleston.

• Pretty City New York Coloring Book – Probably the prettiest coloring book I’ve ever seen. It’s one of Olivia’s favorites.
• Makeup Organizer – For tweens or teens starting makeup! Stuff scattered all around her room was driving me crazy until I introduced this little number.

• Baby Frida Cool Mist Humidifier – Nursery essential… but also cold and flu season essential
• Outfit Organizer – Technically, this is a shoe organizer, but I put days of the week labels on the front of each slot so the kids can prep their outfits for school on Sunday nights.
