The best Amazon deals ahead of Black Friday, including a record-low MacBook Air
There's a cornucopia of savings to be had: Score up to 75% off home goods, tech gadgets, fall finds and more.
Because we love you, because it's the most gorgeous time of the year and because this week's Amazon sales, like peak foliage, are particularly stunning, we're going to paint a picture of your perfect fall day. It begins with you donning this stylish, Oprah-approved Orolay coat (down to its Prime Day price of $90), before you head out to the yard for that much-delayed plant pruning with your new mini chain saw (29 bucks, down from $52) and whoosh away the detritus with a powerhouse leaf blower (was $140, now $72)
Back inside, enjoy this autumn wreath-scented Yankee candle (just $17) while you freshen up with help from this bidet attachment ($25) and a five-piece shower caddy (was $70, now $22). Wasn't that lovely?
Of course, you'll want to keep an eye on your social media feed (maybe with this Apple MacBook Air at $299 off — an all-time low). When your day of self-care, snacking and bingeing is complete, get those choppers gleaming with this AquaSonic toothbrush at half price ($30) before setting off to slumberland on this brushed microfiber sheet set, yours for a dreamy $15. Nighty-night!

Best Amazon deals: All-time low prices
We Yahoo shopping editors are constantly checking price histories to ensure we're only sharing the markdowns we deem legit. That's why we get super excited when we spot a price that's never been beaten, as is the case with the following finds.
Ready to do some Apple picking? You don't even have to drive to the orchard — just head over to Amazon and grab this lightweight MacBook Air while it's on mega sale, as in, down to its lowest price ever.
Don't be deterred by the fact that this isn't the newest model on the market; it still boasts up to 18 hours of use per charge, a vivid 13.6-inch display and weighs only 2.7 pounds for easy toting. If you've been meaning to upgrade from your snail-like computer, it would be wise to act quickly.
Check out our tech editor's roundup of the best laptops for additional options.
The fact that this versatile appliance (which functions as both a vacuum and mop) is down to its all-time best price is enough for it to warrant a space in our carts. But throw in a Martha Stewart endorsement, and we're tempted to buy two!
The queen of all things home recently sang its praises in an unsponsored Instagram post, calling it the "best new home appliance." She adds, "The design is simple, the parts easy to clean and anyone can use it ... Rather than sweeping (which raises dust), rather than vacuuming and then mopping, this machine does it all!"
Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this top-seller is cordless for even more convenience, and the on-page coupon brings it down to as low as it's ever been.
One Yahoo editor gave it a try, saying, "While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn't just 'go off' if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It's also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done."

Best Amazon deals: 70% off or more
Bigger discounts aren't always better, but they're often pretty great — and while Amazon does tend to exaggerate starting prices from time to time, we only focus on items that are on sale for an exceptional value, like these.
This No. 1 bestselling, solar-fueled charging bank packs 42,000mAh of power into its (admittedly) bulky frame, and even includes a flashlight that can run continuously for up to 100 hours. Plan on going camping this year? You'd be wise to pack this juuust in case.
The starting price might be inflated, but you're still getting it for close to as low as we've seen with this deal.
This multiuse hair tool works like the Dyson Airwrap — only at a fraction of the cost.
It comes with three brush heads and a blow-dryer attachment to suit all hair types, whether you want to smooth and straighten or add curl and waves. Now you'll be able to give yourself a professional-level blowout while saving 75% — you're looking at one of the lowest-ever prices we've seen it on sale for.
You, your kids and your grandkids will have a blast playing with this highly rated drone, which easily connects to your phone for taking photos and videos from above. Use it in the yard or even bring it on your next trip for a bird's-eye view of your vacation. And yeah: It can do 360-degree flips!
Full disclosure: We've yet to see it top $90, so the original list price is likely inflated. That said, getting it for $48 (one of the best prices we've seen) is still fab.
Best Amazon deals: 50% off or more
Hello, half off! There's something so satisfying about scoring a hefty markdown, and the ones listed here are the "real deals" — in the most literal sense. Scoop 'em up while they're (at least) two-for-one!
At 45 pounds, this portable treadmill is light enough that it can be moved around your home, and the fact that it has wheels makes this task even easier. But don't be fooled by its lack of heft — it's still durable enough to support up to 320 pounds. Its three settings include work mode, walking mode and running mode, the fastest reaching up to 3.8 mph. Via the user-friendly display, you'll be able to track your time, speed, calories and total mileage. (It comes with a remote that you can use to adjust the speed or stop the machine.)
Because it has a quiet motor, you're unlikely to disturb anyone while you're walking — and when your workout is complete, its short profile allows you to slide it under a bed or sofa if you want to store it out of sight.
We recently saw it dip down to $160, which we thought was an excellent price, so the fact that it's even less now? Score!
Why keep tripping over shampoo bottles when these handy shower shelves exist? This popular set claims to hold up to 40 pounds (that's a lot of gel, conditioner and body wash) and comes with five storage racks in different sizes for all your bathtime essentials. All you need to do is apply the included adhesive to stick 'em on the wall.
We've seen some colors retail for $70, so the fact that this one is nearly 70% less? Grab a set for every bathroom!
There's a reason more than 20,000 people purchased this cooling sheet set in the past month — several reasons, in fact. For starters, it's made of brushed microfiber that feels much softer than its affordable price tag would suggest, and the moisture-wicking material will help you stay dry while you snooze.
Add to that the fact that these sheets are pill-, wrinkle- and fade-resistant? No wonder sleepers are comparing them to high-end bedding brands like Brooklinen.
Check out our roundup of the best cooling sheets for additional options.
Best Amazon deals: Home essentials
They might not be the most exciting products on the market, but we all need 'em! Why not grab the items you purchase over and over again while they're on sale? Whether you're looking to stock up on cleaning, organizational or kitchen must-haves, you'll save a ton in the long run...
Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. The containers are made of glass — but not just any glass. We're talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles.
Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what's packed inside, but it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away. At just over $3 per container, this is a fabulous value.
If your ratty old dish towels have seen better days, this 100% cotton set is an excellent swap. The waffle weave pattern not only looks nice, but it also offers a bit of texture for more effective scrubbing.
Our price trackers tell us this is within a dollar of these towels' all-time low, so wipe — er, swipe — 'em while they're on sale.
We still have a few months before the holidays, but if you're set to host any dinner dos this year, you'd be wise to grab a snazzy flatware set, especially one as affordable as this.
For $20, you're getting four salad forks, dinner forks, teaspoons, dinner spoons and dinner knives — and if you're expecting a larger crowd, it won't cost much to add a few more sets. We've never seen these stainless steel utensils dip lower than they are now.
Best Amazon deals: $25 and under
A good deal is a good deal, but a deal you can snag for less than the cost of lunch for two? Now that's what our frugal selves really get excited about. After all, the less you spend, the more you can buy, right? There's some shopping editor math for ya'.
Never fight with your family members over power outlets again. This electrifying gadget boasts five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their devices all at once. Oh, and this top seller is so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor.
It's not the most massive discount, but we've yet to see it on sale for less. Check out our tech editor's roundup of the products he can't live without for more gadgets and gizmos aplenty.
Listen up: Our senior tech writer, Rick Broida, has spent the past two decades testing (and testing, and re-testing) hundreds of earbuds. So, when he's surprised by just how good a $40 pair performs, you need to check them out ASAP.
When he tested some of the best earbuds on the market, he named this pair the best budget option, praising their sound quality and noise-canceling abilities. And this wallet-friendly option just got even more budget-friendly, currently down to $20 — the lowest we've ever seen them.

Before you find yourself immersed in all things pine tree and sugar cookie, revel in the bliss of autumnal aromas courtesy of this top-selling candle.
It contains notes of "spicy cinnamon apples" and "fall leaves," and its large 22-ounce size means it'll burn for over 110 hours. Grab a few while they're over 45% off...
While we love the cooler temps fall introduces, the leaf maintenance? Not so much. But that's why tools like this top-selling leaf blower exist.
Despite its 4-pound size, it can reach speeds as fast as 150 mph to clear your yard in no time, and because it comes with two batteries, you'll be able to work for up to 20 minutes before needing a charge (10 minutes per battery). This is within $2 of as low as it's ever been on sale for, so snag it while it's nearly 50% off.
Buying a pair of cozy slippers shouldn't make you go, "Ugh" — or "Ugg," for that matter.

Best Amazon deals: No. 1 bestsellers
We're not saying we give preferential treatment to Amazon No. 1 bestsellers, but we're not not saying it. After all, there's usually a reason — or many! — that shoppers keep flocking to these popular picks, and seeing them on sale is *chef's kiss*.

Oven mitts, pot holders and kitchen towels need to be replaced every so often, and if yours are ready to be tossed, this set is an excellent deal. Because it's KitchenAid, you know you're getting a quality product, and what sets the included oven mitt apart is the fact that it has nonstick silicone grips for more confident handling of hot pots and pans.
At 50% off, this is close to as low as it's been all year, so you might want to stock up on a few sets.
These popular fabric-softening balls can be reused for over a thousand laundry loads. They're made entirely of wool, and not only will they make your washables plush, they'll shorten the drying time in the process. What's more, they'll save you tons of money on not-so-eco-friendly dryer sheets.

We know what you're thinking: "Do I really need a bidet?" And if you're perfectly content shelling out for TP and wiping your bum with a scratchy sheet of paper that does a questionable job at best, the answer is no.
But, in the event that you're ready to improve your backside hygiene game, this easy-install accessory is a total game changer. Not only is it more thorough than wiping, it'll also make you feel like you're getting a spa treatment. This is the best price we've seen it on sale for in months...
This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.
It's also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle." It's currently down to the lowest price we've seen all year.
