Happy Cinco de Mayo and Met Gala Monday! Whether your plans for the start of the week involve sipping margaritas, admiring Anna Wintour's guests' get-ups or both, might I also suggest making time to browse today's best Amazon deals? From Apple AirPods on sale for a record low to a Roomba robot vacuum that's nearly 50% off, they're worth it — I promise. Oh, and because hunting for deals is literally my job, I've already rounded up the most worthwhile markdowns of the bunch to speed things up.

As the temps rise, your feet will need some breathing room — treat 'em to a bestselling pair of cloudlike slides, just $20 (their best price ever). Speaking of cloudlike, a popular pair of plush cooling pillows is currently an insane 80% off at $25. (Now that's what dreams are made of.) And if you're still in spring cleaning mode, I highly recommend allowing this Rubbermaid electric scrubber do the dirty work for a mere $15.

Best Amazon deals this week: Rare sales
If you've been holding off on buying AirPods until there's a sale, consider this the time to pounce. At just $99, this pair is down to the best price I've seen. Now, they don't include active noise cancellation like these do, but if it's a high-quality, comfortable listening experience you're after, these earbuds more than deliver. With up to five hours of listening time per charge (and 30 hours of battery life via the charging case), you'll be able to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more with limited interruption.

If you have "clean grout" on your to-do list, chances are you're not exactly champing at the bit to confront this dreaded task. And I can't really blame you; crouching down while furiously scrubbing away for hours on end — knowing there's a very good chance it'll barely look any different once you're done — isn't anyone's idea of a good time. While you can't avoid the job entirely, you can dramatically reduce the amount of elbow grease required with this nifty tool, which I am slightly obsessed with.
It's essentially like an electric toothbrush for your home and scrubs 60 times per second to bust grime out of those hard-to-reach corners and crevices. Plus, it's down to one of its best prices in years.

This is the latest version of this iPad, so the fact that it's already on sale (for its lowest price ever) makes this a deal worth considering. According to Yahoo Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, "It's an ultra-light, thin tablet that's powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag without a second thought. With a large 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you're swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before feel like an old tube TV.
"If you've got a habit of toggling between a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages at once, you're in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you're into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame."

The stickier the weather gets, the fewer products we want to slather onto our skin. That's why having a moisturizer and serum in one is so clutch, and this one's formulated with ingredients like aloe, glycerin and niacinamide to help firm and soften while delivering essential moisture. It's also lightweight — a boon on those sweltering days — and at over 30% off, it's within a dollar of its lowest price in years.
I own this multi-use, nonstick beauty, and it just might become your most-utilized piece of cookware, thanks to its thoughtful design. It took the internet by storm a few years ago and quickly became a favorite of home cooks and celebrities alike. (Selena Gomez did a collaboration with the brand, and Oprah has called it "the kitchen magician.")
Its ceramic coating is slick and free of PFAS, while the handle smartly doubles as a spoon rest. Speaking of utensils, it comes with a wooden spatula and metal steamer basket that can be used as a colander, and it's oven-safe up to 450°F for added versatility. It's not often on sale, so grab it while it's $25 off.

Scoring a new MacBook on sale is always a win, and this one's marked down to just about as low as it's ever been. McGraw says, "This version features the latest generation M4 chip, meaning you'll get a much more powerful computer with everything else you love about the MacBook Air, including its outstanding 18-hour battery life and gorgeous 13.6-inch screen."
Have you ever seen a more gorgeous pair of headphones? This Kim Kardashian collab is more than its good looks, though. With top-tier, immersive sound quality, up to 40 minutes of battery life and a noise cancellation mode that allows you to choose how much outside noise you want to let in, they're a real treat for your ears. Plus, no pesky cords to deal with: They connect to your phone and other devices in a snap via Bluetooth. I've only seen them dip lower than this around the holidays, so snag 'em while you can save over 50%.

RHOBH star Kyle Richards gives this pack two thumbs (toes?) up. "These are great, these no-show socks. They come in a package of six!" she says during an Amazon Live. She admits that when her "socks are showing," her friends make fun of her look — "[It's] a dorky vibe," she laughs. "The aesthetic is not good, guys, if you’re wearing a sock with your workout shoes … They shouldn't show!" At 50% off, this is as low as they get.

If you struggle with low water pressure, this high-flow showerhead is designed to make it feel like you're rinsing off in a rainforest. There are five modes: rain, massage, mist, rain and massage, and rain and mist. The 4.1-inch head provides a broad coverage area and gives you the sensation of standing under a tropical waterfall without having to hop on a plane. At over 50% off (its best price in years), it's an easy way to get a fancy upgrade minus the financial headache (and the sledgehammer).

Best Amazon deals this week: Outdoors
Whether you're a seasoned green thumb or giving gardening a go for the first time this spring, a reliable pair of clippers is essential. Yahoo Executive Editor Nicole Sforza swears by these top-sellers, which she says "can turn a jungle into a primrose path."
She adds, "I've owned them for several years and they work perfectly every single time. They have a soft nonslip grip and a coating on the blades so they easily glide through even thick stems. They haven't rusted on me, either. Experienced gardeners say they cut like a 'hot knife through butter.' That makes them easy to handle, even if you can't garden like you used to because of arthritis or decreased grip strength. A self-cleaning groove helps keep the blade from sticking to sap or debris — a big selling point for experienced gardeners. I especially love the easy-lock notch that keeps them closed when I'm not using them."
Planning any road trips? This popular power station is an absolute steal at nearly $400 off. With a massive 1,070 watt-hour capacity and multiple ports, it's perfect for powering everything from your camping gear to essential appliances during a power outage, and this is the best price I've seen in marked down to months.
Excited to host some outdoor soirees this spring? You'll need to shed some light on your subjects, and these charming bulbs will help turn your yard into the coziest hangout spot on the block.

Best Amazon deals this week: Kitchen
Been eyeing one of these bad boys? You'd be wise to pounce while you can save $80. At 4.5 quarts, it can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time (though it won't take up too much room in your kitchen). This is the brand I use at home, and it comes with a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun. Since it does all of the mixing for you, it'll give your arms a break, and you can let it run while you prep other ingredients — a must when making large batches.
Smelly fridge? Yeah, not so appetizing. But this unassuming stink slayer works for up to 10 years (yes, you read that right) to keep things fresh. All you do is place it inside and, well, that's actually it. Sorry, baking soda — you've been replaced. This little doodad can also go in closets, drawers, your car ... anywhere that could use some stench removal. This is the lowest it's been since last summer, so scoop it up while you can.
Gordon Ramsay himself says this pan "cooks to absolute, utter perfection" — and it's not often on sale. The hybrid design marries strong stainless steel with nonstick properties for a cooking surface that can achieve a good sear while being easy to clean. This skillet features aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for expert heat conduction and distribution, and it hasn't dipped lower than its current price in months.
An air fryer is just the ticket when you want a hot meal without turning on the oven. This top-rated model heats up quickly and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. This deal brings it down to just $2 more than its all-time low.
