The Amazon Big Spring Sale might not kick off until March 20, but there are plenty of early deals to be found. (Yahoo)(Yahoo)
Barring one last "take that!" winter storm, we're gonna go ahead and say that winter's winding down. In fact, the vernal equinox (i.e., the planetary beginning of spring) kicks off tomorrow, so we're very much in looking-forward mode. And, it turns out, so is Amazon: Not only is the retailer unveiling a soup-to-nuts smorgasbord of deals in the first-ever Amazon Big Spring Sale, slated March 20-25, it's giving us all a big, delicious taste today. (Psst: These savings aren't just for Prime members either!)
Speaking of delicious: How'd you like to smarten up your breakfast routine with a state-of-the-art toaster for 70% off? Perhaps a booming Bluetooth speaker to keep you entertained while you get this year's backyard crop planted for 75% off? Maybe you're more concerned with sprucing up your interior space. Well, this stick vac will suck up all the schmutz, and it's marked down by $490. And that's just for starters during this Amazon March sale.
Wanna get schooled on other spring deals you can expect? Here is everything you need to know about Amazon's Spring Sale.
You can't put a price on your safety, but this handy carbon monoxide detector is nearly half off at Amazon today. It plugs into the wall and has a 9-volt battery backup should the power go out. You can easily read its digital LED display too.
One shopper explained their experience using it: "My home's natural gas boiler was over 25 years old and began leaking CO from incomplete combustion issues. This Kidde CO detector audibly alerted me and displayed the current CO level as well as the maximum CO level that it had recorded. Very simple to use and displays basic, yet useful information. I was able to open the windows and ventilate my house to prevent the excess CO buildup from harming us, thanks to this CO detector's audible and visual alerts."
There's a reason for the hype surrounding Apple AirPods Pro — many reasons, in fact. For starters, they offer rich, crisp sound and superior noise cancellation, allowing you to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more without outside commotion getting in the way. This model also allows you to control the volume simply by swiping the stem, and you'll even receive four pairs of silicone tips in different sizes for customized comfort. At $189, this is the cheapest we've seen them!
The Barefoot Contessa herself approves of this wildly popular and versatile pan, which is made of durable cast iron that'll last for years. It comes pre-seasoned and can withstand heat from any cooktop — it can even be used over a campfire. Nothing's better when it comes to achieving the perfect sear on your meat — and I can say from personal experience that it makes the best pancakes too.

When your device is dead, having a power bank on hand can truly save the day. This one supports fast charging and is able to boost an iPhone to 78% in just one hour.

This No. 1 bestselling, TikTok-famous compact carpet cleaner packs a punch, especially considering it weighs less than 10 pounds! Its powerful suction can be used to remove stains not just from rugs, but furniture and even car upholstery, too. Plus, it comes with a self-cleaning hose tool and a bottle of Bissell's Spot & Stain with Febreeze. We haven't seen this viral cleaner priced much lower than it currently is in years (it was only a few bucks cheaper back in July for Prime Day) — and when you consider how much money it'll save you in professional cleaning bills (and replacement furniture), it'll pay for itself in just a few uses.

Ready to finally trade your fraying wired earbuds for a sleek pair of Apple AirPods?

"I've had a real problem with finding comfortable earbuds and for years have stuck to the one [pair of] corded earbuds that were comfortable and didn't fall out," wrote one Apple convert.

With seven cooking functions (grill, BBQ griddle, air crisp, roast, bake, broil and dehydrate), this kitchen workhorse can replace several appliances, and you just might find yourself using it more than your full-size oven.

No, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you — that's a top-selling 43-inch Fire TV for less than $200.
