I had a $300 visa gift card that was a rebate from my contact lenses, so it was a race to try to fill my cart with things totaling as close to $300 as possible without going over so I could use that card. I got: A travel cable organizer bag A Kindle Oasis (not the bundle bc I'd rather get a case of my choosing) 3 sleep masks for our upcoming trip to Iceland A 7ft baseball practice net for DS Some neutrogena wipes and ballpoint pens to use up the rest of the $ and a David Walliams book bc DS loves his books. Pro tip after years of waiting until the day it expires and scrambling: the day it comes in the mail buy a $300 amazon gift card and apply to account. Last year, I tried to buy a gift card with it (I get the virtual card) and it kept rejecting. I didn't try amazon, but Nordstrom and another retail store wouldn't let me do it. So I always end up spending about $295 of it. but next year, I'll try to buy an amazon card with it.

But it was a good excuse to buy the damn kindle I've been thinking about for years. It was free to me!

Debating an Apple Watch since they’re on such a good sale. I just upgraded my Fitbit at Christmas but this is the first Fitbit that has given me problem after problem.

I got a pair of beats earbuds with noise cancelling for H. It's the least I can do for him with my snoring.

I’ve had fitbits forever and loved them. DH moved to the Apple Watch at Christmas and since my primary reason for the watch was fitness tracking, I stuck with what I knew. The Charge 5 has been the worst I’ve owned by far, but nothing is “wrong” enough to use the warranty.

Last year I bought stasher brand reusable storage bags for DD’s lunches and I love them. I don’t want to pay full price so I hope they are on sale again. I also need a new pillow but am hesitant to buy one on Amazon. They ARE on sale again -- did you see? I think I might grab a few.

Debating a heat press because DD wants to make tshirts with her Cricut. IF anyone has recs or link to a good deal lmk. I'm thinking one of the larger ones since we'll be doing adult & plus size tshirts but admit I have no idea how any of that works.

It works well and then I don't have to worry about getting close to the price.

I just put a kindle Oasis bundle in my cart. Under $200 for the lower storage one, with a case. I’ve been wanting a backlit kindle with buttons for a while now. I need a new kindle too. My very old one (1st gen!) finally died and I'm so sad. this was me. my MIL got me the oasis for my bday last month, and i LOVE IT. and somehow i still got some kind of deal for sending in my old one (which H gave me when we were dating, in 2010).

Does the brand matter for air fryers? Or just keep an eye on reviews? Also maybe looking at robot vacuums, but I don’t want anything too loud. Is that possible or not so much? My Bissel is fairly clean and it has a mop attachment too. Although it gets louder the more worn out it is, but I use mine for my store, so I feel like it gets a lot more use than it would at home. But I love that thing.

I got an iPad for my kid. The one she’s on was an old one of mine. Saving it for her birthday in August.

I got the Trekking: National Parks board game that's been on my list for a while but I never wanted to pay full price for. It will probably be a Christmas present for my oldest. Or myself, lol.

I got the Apple Watch. Also a pop-up soccer net for DS. Coop pillows. And new satin pillowcases because why not. DH would really like a new comforter, but I don’t see any I like on sale ATM. Now it’s time to hide the credit card from myself.

I want to do an Instant Pot lesson for all you that don’t use yours. I use mine all the time. It’s so fast and easy clean up. Air fryer too but mine is also a toaster oven so I don’t mind the counter space it takes as we use it multiple times per day. I have both an IP and an air fryer and use neither. Help!

My paperwhite is almost 10 years old and still kicking.
Just in case anyone needed a push to get one, which it doesn’t seem like you do 🤣
