We have a well-deserved weekend ahead, and if you're feeling a little antsy trying to pass the time until 5 o'clock, here's a little something to distract you. Our team has scoured Amazon to put together a handy rundown of today's top sales. Get your click-to-cart finger ready because you can score a pair of earbuds for $100. Need some new cookware? How 'bout this 11-piece set that's $70 off? There's a lot to explore. Let's have a closer look at these bounteous Amazon bargains, shall we?

Bissell

Two air purifiers for the price of one? You don't want to miss out on this deal!

$100 at Amazon

An air purifier is an excellent purchase because it goes beyond seasonal usage. It filters the air to remove allergens, smoke, dust, pet hair and even can help eliminate odors left behind from the meals you cook. Bissell's purifier pack contains a filtered layer of activated carbon that eliminates 99.7% of pollutants and particles. And the air purifier is so quiet, you won't notice it's on.

One shopper who experienced wildfire smoke purchased the set. Here's what they said: "I do have allergies etc, but that's not why I bought these. We had horrific wildfires in the PNW this last August, and the smoke in the air was so thick you couldn't see 10 feet in front of you. It was a horrible nightmare. Windows and doors were taped up to keep the smoke out. Some got in every time you opened a door etc, so these helped a LOT. After running two of them in our 1400 sq ft home for 3-4 hours - the smoke smell was gone. We ran them for a week off and on, and they helped tremendously."

Command your entire home from one device — turn the lights on, make lists, check recipes and more.

$75 at Amazon

Control your home from one device that does it all. Amazon's Echo Show 8 connects to Wifi and can turn lights on and off, set reminders, make lists and more. You can also play music, have audiobooks read and deliver the news. The Echo also has an 8-inch HD touchscreen that makes it easy to see the screen.

"Life-changing device. No seriously. Changes your life!" one Amazon shopper raved. "These are definitely the electronic device that's changed my life more than anything I've ever owned. And it's changed my mom's life and improved her quality of life. Must buy for literally everyone, in my opinion!!! I could go on and on!!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product."

Is your cookware arsenal in need of a refresh? Add this stylish set to your cart before it sells out!

$80 at Amazon

As a rule, pots and pans aren’t a cheap investment, but Carote’s 11-piece set is a delightful exception. Right now, you can score the bestselling ensemble for under $80. It’s available in a classic Cream White granite set as well as a Granite Black variety.

“I purchased this set in Cream and absolutely love it more than any other set I have ever purchased, and I’ve been cooking for many years,” one happy customer wrote. “The pans are large and lightweight. I appreciate the set doesn’t include pieces and sizes I would hardly use but, rather, sizes I use every day. Others claim glide without oil or sprays, but these pans literally need no oils unless you choose. I am so impressed with this set I purchased a set for a friend of mine as a housewarming gift. If I had the money, I’d buy a set for everyone I know!”

This handy lantern eliminates all flying pests that plan to take over your home and outdoor space.

$49 at Amazon

Now that summer is here, so are the pesky mosquitoes and flies. Luckily, you don't have to deal with them flying around your property and in your home. Instead, this trap attracts bugs with its AtraktaGlo UV light, diffuser, TiO2 coating and quiet fan. Then, it stores the expired bugs in a discreet basket.

One five-star reviewer wrote: "Efficient bug remover. I use it in my garage or in a room where I need to get rid of flying bugs. What is scary is that if you leave it on it will catch and kill every bug that is within 100 feet."

Between the easy setup and impressive battery life, this is one deal you don't want to miss.

$100 at Amazon

These buds are IPX4 waterproof, which means you don't want to wear them in the shower — but you can wear them in a rainstorm or during a sweaty workout at the gym without worry. They each have long-lasting battery power, but the case itself provides another day of listening! And fans are loving every minute of it.

"Best earbuds I’ve owned," declared one, adding that: "Sound quality is great. It’s a crisp sound with pretty good bass output. The noise canceling feature has worked well also. They’re also very durable. I drop things a lot and that’s not been an issue. They’re small so it’s hard to find them sometimes when they pop out of the case."

If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)
