Acer Dual-USB SD Card Reader for $8.99 (31% off)
Acer
Who is this for? The Acer Dual-USB SD Card Reader is for anyone who has a microSD or SD card at home. Laptops rarely feature card readers anymore, so if you have a card in your phone, dashcam, security camera, or even a CPAP machine, you’ll need a way to pull data off it and onto your laptop on demand. This Acer gadget is about the same size as a flash drive and features both USB-C and USB-A ends.
Why is this deal good? At $8.99, down from $12.99, this is the lowest price we’ve ever seen on this reader. That’s a great price to pay for an accessory that you may not use every day but you’ll always be glad to have on hand when you do need it. You get 5Gbps USB 3.0 speeds for fast file transfers, a true plug-and-play setup with no drivers or software needed, and a solid build that’ll hold up over years.

Anker 100W USB-C Cable (2-pack) for $9.99 (17% off)
Anker
Who is this for? Few things are as annoying as a slow-charging smartphone when you’re in a hurry. Fixing this is pretty easy as you probably just need a faster cable. Anker’s 100W USB-C Cable supports up to 100W of power—that’s fast enough for most laptops, too—and it’s 6 feet long, plus it comes in a two in a pack.
Why is this deal good? $9.99 is the best price we’ve ever seen on this 2-pack from Anker, which means you’re effectively paying $5 per cable. At this price, you might as well replace your whole cable stack and maybe grab a few extra as backups for travel.

Soulwit Desktop Cable Holder (3-pack) for $5.86 (16% off)
Soulwit
Who is this for? This 3-pack of Soulwit Desktop Cable Holders is a cheap but essential fix for anyone tired of hunting for fallen cables. I’m talking charging cords, laptop cables, or even headphones. These holders adhere to any surface, and you can route your cables through them so they stay put. It also makes them easier to grab and plug in when they’re needed, say when you’re charging your phone.
Why is this deal good? The deal here is less about the discount and more about the utility you get for the price. At about $6 for the whole pack, you’re paying $2 per. At that price, it’s hard to argue against these flexible, anti-static silicone holders that solve a real problem.

Anker 5-in-1 USB-C Hub for $9.99 (50% off)
Anker
Who is this for? Anker’s 5-in-1 USB-C Hub is the perfect budget-friendly companion for anyone who has to carry their laptop around, whether you’re a student or a remote worker. As tiny as this hub is, it’ll make your life easier by connecting you to external monitors, transferring data between drives, and attaching devices your laptop doesn’t natively support (because it lacks the proper ports).
Why is this deal good? While we often see this particular Anker hub drop to around $16, this price cut down to $9.99 marks an absolute record-low price. That’s a small price to pay for an accessory that fixes a problem in lots of modern laptops, granting access to 4K HDMI, 5Gbps USB 3.0, two standard USB-A, and a USB-C port with 90W of passthrough charging to keep your laptop charged.

Inncarvs Remote Kindle Page Turner for $7.99 (20% off)
Inncarvs
Who is this for? This budget gadget is a dream addition for avid e-reader fans who want to cozy up in bed and not worry about swiping the pages on their Kindle, Kobo, or whatever tablet they’re reading on. There’s no Bluetooth pairing here—just a simple RF sensor clip that physically mimics a finger tap on the screen. You don’t even have to worry about batteries since you can charge it with a USB-C cable. You can also use it for remotely taking photos on your phone.
Why is this deal good? Dropping down to an all-time low of $7.99, the clip-on Inncarvs Remote Kindle Page Turner is a cheapie that you’ll wonder how you ever read without. At this price point, it’s definitely something you can impulse buy if you love e-reading.

Logitech M196 Bluetooth Wireless Mouse for $9.48 (37% off)
Logitech
Who is this for? The Logitech M196 Bluetooth Wireless Mouse is a portable wireless mouse that’s great for everyday work and little else. Don’t need the bells and whistles of a gaming mouse? Or the highfalutin features of a premium productivity mouse? This’ll get you through the day on the cheap. And since it’s a Bluetooth mouse, you don’t even need to use the dongle that would otherwise take up a USB port.
Why is this deal good? Paying less than $10 for a Logitech mouse is normally unheard of, even for a model as basic as this one. The fact that it also comes with Bluetooth pairing, an ambidextrous design, and the ability to work on any surface? That makes it worth every dollar.

Anker 8K/60Hz HDMI Cable for $8.49 (15% off)
Anker
Who is this for? Anker’s 8K/60Hz HDMI Cable is for gamers and movie buffs who want to link up their devices to ultra-high-def screens at a distance. Buying a cable that supports 4K/120Hz and 8K/60Hz displays is a great way to future-proof your setup.
Why is this deal good? While a $1.50 price drop seems small, it gets you a premium HDMI cable for under $9. Not all HDMI cables are created equal, as cheap and outdated cords will bottleneck your hardware. This Anker cable, however, boasts a massive 48Gbps bandwidth, making it fully capable of handling 4K video at a buttery-smooth 120Hz or 8K at 60Hz. It also doesn’t hurt that it’s durable enough to snake tightly behind a flush TV wall mount without wearing out.
