Perks and Rec: What we're buying during Prime Day

Our experts spend tons of time finding the best deals for you, dear reader, but we also can't help but add things to our own carts during Amazon Prime Day. Wanna take a peek?

In tech, we grabbed a couple of Amazon devices: an Echo Show and two Echo Dots (both the regular and kids versions). Our favorite smart locks are more than half off and lit up our group chat. And this combo monitor and smart TV was recommended for someone who needs a secondary screen.

When it comes to style, we don't play games. Our carts are full of swimsuits and shorts for the rest of summer. We're also restocking for our beauty and health routines with Megababe deodorant, vitamin C serum, dry shampoo and these electrolyte tablets.

This GrubHub+ deal is too good for many of us to pass up (it's free!), so we thought we'd send it along to you, too. Treat yourself to something tasty delivered tonight — it's been a long week, and it's only Wednesday.

Have a primo Prime Day, friends.
