It's time to start thinking inside the box — that is, thinking about what you'd like to see inside your next Amazon box... (Getty Images)(Getty Images)
We — and probably a bunch of other people — owe you an apology for trying to bogusly psych you up over the past month or so. You know what we mean: Ooh, it's Memorial Day — yay, summertime! Followed by, Ooh, it's Father's Day — yay, summertime! Then, Ooh, it's Bloomsday (that would be June 16) — yay, summertime! Lies ... all lies! But we're coming clean when we say that this is, in fact, the first official week of summer 2025, and these are, in fact, the best Amazon deals with which to inaugurate the season.
Prime Day is slated to kick off July 8, but who wants to wait? Here's a bunch of straight talk on some real steals that are happening now. Over the heat already? This nifty Shark misting fan can provide relief whether you're inside or out, and it's currently down to a record-low $50 off. Planning a summer getaway? Keep your suitcase tidy courtesy of an 8-piece packing cube set, also down to an all-time low at just $14. Want to avoid waking up with sweaty hair? Some cooling pillows can do the trick — a pair is just $24, nearly 75% off.
So many ways to accentuate your summer! Which is now. Officially. (Again ... sorry.)

"I'm giving my mom this new fan from Shark to help her keep cool this spring and summer. It can be used indoors and out, with or without the base (so it can sit on a table). The fan can be plugged in or will run cordless up to 24 hours. And it's boujee — complete with a portable water tank and mist functionality! I’m also considering one of Shark's new mini misting fans for my sister, another mom who deserves to feel pampered at home and on the go. (I can also see this coming in handy when she's sitting on the bleachers at my niece's summer softball games.)" — Kristin Granero, Home Writer

Apple products are so sought after that they don't really need to go on sale, and when they do, it's often because they're older models. That said, this is the most recent version of this iPad, which makes this markdown extra noteworthy.
McGraw says, "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."
If a smaller screen suits your needs, you won't do much better than this highly affordable 32-incher. It's equipped with Alexa voice control and is compatible with Apple AirPlay, meaning you can pair it with your Apple device to broadcast photos and videos on the screen.
