πŸ›’ As promised: My Top 10 Prime Big Deal Days picks (out of thousands)


Hey there,

You asked for my picks, so here they are. Prime Big Deal Days are today and tomorrow, and I went through all of the deals to find the 10 I'd spend my own money on.

It's a mix. A few are big purchases worth waiting for a sale. A few are small enough to add to your cart without a second thought. One is a ceramic pumpkin. Each comes with the reason it made my list. (The links below are affiliate links, so I earn a small commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you.)

My Top 10:

1. The one that makes me smile​
​Staub Petite Pumpkin Cocotte (a little ceramic pumpkin that goes from oven to table. French onion soup for one, a baked dip, or just sitting on the counter all fall)

2. The one you only buy once​
​KitchenAid Artisan 5-Quart Stand Mixer (bread dough, a double batch of cookies, whipped cream in a minute. This is the mixer people keep for decades)

3. The one that isn't only for fish​
​Sur La Table Stainless Steel Fish Turner (thin enough to slide under a fried egg, a cookie, or roasted vegetables without breaking them. It's the least expensive thing on this list)

4. The one that ends the guessing​
​Chef iQ Sense Wireless Meat Thermometer (no cord, and your phone tells you when the roast is done. It's about half off, the biggest discount on this list)

5. The one that ends the lid hunt​
​Rubbermaid Brilliance Glass Containers, Set of 9 (lids that match and don't leak, and clear glass so you can see what's in the fridge). These are the ones I use every day.

6. The one that isn't just for the kitchen​
​Dyson Cyclone V10 Cordless Vacuum (no cord to drag around, so a quick pass after dinner takes two minutes)

7. The one for a pile of vegetables​
​Paudin 7-Inch Nakiri Knife (a flat, wide blade that cuts straight down through onions, cabbage, and herbs, then scoops it all off the board)

8. The one for soup season​
​Braun MultiQuick 7 Immersion Blender (blend soup right in the pot, then switch to the food processor attachment for pesto or salsa)

9. The one that replaces the mismatched pans​
​Cuisinart Chef's Classic 11-Piece Stainless Set (a full set of stainless steel pots and pans in one box)

10. The one that works all year​
​Dyson Purifier Hot+Cool (a heater in winter, a fan in summer, an air purifier every day. It's the biggest savings here, $230 off)

Not a Prime member?​
There's a 30-day free trial, so you can shop the deals and cancel if the membership isn't for you.

That's my list. The sale ends tomorrow night, and the deals do sell out, so if one caught your eye, I wouldn't wait.

If you know someone who'd want this, forward it to them. And I'll be back tomorrow with piccata.

Until then,
