TIPS 15 Amazon Items I Would Never Pay Full Price For

17 Comments

A smiling woman in a pink dress with red ruffle details stands in a bright, cozy living room. She's surrounded by patterned armchairs, a pink dresser, and lush green plants. Sunlight streams through a large window, highlighting the cheerful decor.

Before I get started on this post, I wanted to answer the sweet emails and messages so many of you sent me about the flooding in Texas.

My. Heart. Is. Breaking.

Watching the flooding unfold across our state—seeing homes destroyed, families displaced, and entire communities flooded—my heart aches for everyone facing the aftermath of this tragedy. We know families affected by the flooding, and my own sweet Whitney was a counselor at a camp near Austin this week. Her camp sits up on a hill, so the flooding couldn’t reach the cabins.

It’s so important to remember that life can change in an instant, and I’m praying for comfort for those who have lost so much, for strength for those working tirelessly on the ground, and for hope for the days ahead.

I have so much content that I already committed to with the busy sale week ahead, and I want to turn that and this platform into something that can help with the flooding, so I’m donating a portion of all my affiliate income to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund. If you are reading this and know someone who was affected by the floods, just know that my heart is weeping with you.

***********************************************************************************************************************************************************

There are sales and then there are SALES.

Today and tomorrow are Amazon Prime Days.

It’s kind of like Black Friday and Cyber Monday and every holiday deal on the planet all rolled into one.

Have you ever shopped on Amazon Prime Day before?

It can get a little overwhelming.

That’s why I’m here. Today I’m sharing things that I know the price is amazing on. Things I’ve used. Things I’ve loved.

But also?

Things I would never pay full price for.

I wanted to start with two of the best deals I’m SO EXCITED about. My go-to leggings that I LOVE that are normally $25 are under $18 today!!!! RUNNNNN. You can see them here.

And then? The mascara that we all know and love? IT’S ONLY $3.99!!! See what I mean about stocking up?

You can see the mascara here.

And you can buy a set of three at an even bigger discount here.

And here’s the thing.

These 15 things are just the start. The way that Amazon Prime Day works is that there are daily deals and then? There are lightning deals that only last until the item sells out. Sometimes it takes an hour to sell out. Sometimes it takes minutes.

I’m going to be posting lightning deals on my Facebook page and my Instagram stories over the next couple of days and I’m going to be continuously updating the list as well.

So if you are shopping for something in particular? Leave it in the comments and I will search the site and try find the best deal for you.

And now?

Here are 15 things on sale that I would never pay full price for.

Best Amazon Prime Day Shopping Tips

If you are a professional Prime Day shopper? Just skip over this section because you could probably teach me a thing or two. The deals are listed by category below.

If you are like “Prime” what?

Here are my best tips for maximizing your budget over the next couple of days:

  1. There are a LOT of deals over on Prime Day. It’s so easy to get overwhelmed when you go over to the site. My best advice? Make a list of all the things you are looking for—for Christmas, for birthdays, for yourself, for your home and then search these categories or leave a comment letting me know what you are looking for. I’m here to help in any way that I can.
  2. You have to be a member of Amazon Prime to access the deals. But in amazing news? If you aren’t a Prime Member? Here’s an easy hack. Amazon offers a FREE 30-day trial. You can sign up for the sale and check it out to see if it’s something you are interested in.
  3. Check out the Amazon Prime FREE trial here.
  4. I’ve posted deals I’ve found by categories below. But please be aware that there are TONS more deals than this available. Prime deals crop up on Tuesday and Wednesday with “Daily Deals” and every hour with “Lightning Deals” I’m going to be monitoring them and updating the folders on Amazon all the time, so you may want to follow along on my Facebook page and my Instagram stories over the next couple of days.
  5. Just like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, shop ahead. I made my lists for my family so I know what to shop for. It’s a great resource for birthdays and holidays (specifically GREAT PRICES on televisions and electronics).
  6. If you miss a deal that’s posted— then click the “waitlist” button in case someone cancels or has it in their cart and doesn’t make a purchase. If a deal opens up or it goes on sale again over Prime Day, you’ll get a notification. Also—please note that all the prices I’m posting were accurate at the time I posted them; however, prices can change quickly.
  7. If you aren’t in a rush with shipping, you can click no-rush shipping and Amazon will give you credits to your Amazon account. It’s a great way to get additional savings (especially if you are ordering them for Christmas or a holiday that’s in the future).

For example, I ordered this queen mattress and I extended my shipping and got $1 credit back to my account. I wasn’t in a hurry, so the timeframe didn’t matter to me. Little extra discounts like that add up on a shopping day like this.

Whew.

That was a LOT.

Just know I’m here to help.

And now?

Here are the DEALS.

A person with long blonde hair is standing and smiling in a stylish living room. They are wearing a navy outfit and white sneakers. The room features a beige couch, decorative pillows, a plant, red flowers on the mantel, and a bowl of lemons on the table.

//two-piece navy outfit (48% off now)// white tennis shoes  (similar)//

A woman with long blonde hair, wearing a navy blue outfit and sandals, stands smiling in a bright, neatly decorated bedroom with a blue and white color scheme and patterned rug.

//two-piece short-sleeved navy outfit (20% off right now) // gold flip flops //

1.  This two-piece set

Love, love, LOVE both versions of this two-piece set.

I brought it with me to the Cape and I’m wearing it constantly. My sister-in-law wore the set in another color yesterday to Martha’s Vineyard.

It’s just so cozy, washes well, and it’s perfect for every occasion.

It comes in tons of different colors, has pockets and a drawstring waist, and runs VERY LARGE. You’ll want to size down one size.

I’m wearing a small here and I’m 5 feet tall 136 pounds if that helps with sizing.

I love this set, but I wait for it to go on sale, and it’s on sale right now for 20% off.

You can see the short-sleeved version here.

And the long-sleeved version here.

A smiling woman with long blonde hair arranges flowers in white vases on a white dining table, set in a bright room with large windows and patterned curtains.

// block print dress // heart bead necklace (similar) //

A white plate with a beaded edge sits on a blue and white floral placemat. A blue floral napkin, rolled into a rose shape, rests on the plate. Gold-colored fork, knife, and spoon are placed on either side.

A white dining table set with blue and white plates, gold cutlery, crystal glasses with lemon wedges, floral napkins, tall lit candles, and a centerpiece of red, white, and blue flowers.

// block print table runner //block print napkins//block print placemats (larger print) //wavy melamine plates //gold silverware (on sale today)//

2. Cotton Club Block Prints

I love Cotton Club Prints.

And in amazing news? On Prime Day all of their block print table wear and pillows are all 20% off.

I have so many of their pieces and I try to always get them on sale.

Here are some of my favorites:

  • block print table runner
  • block print napkins
  • these blue and white block print pillows
  • this set of pillows
  • this block print tablecloth

A collection of various beauty products, including lipsticks, mascara, highlighter palettes, blush palettes, nail polish, concealer, and loose powder, arranged around the text "amazon prime beauty finds" written in a stylish pink font.

3. Beauty finds

I try NEVER EVER EVER to pay full price for any of my drugstore make-up brands.

You can always find them on sale and today is the DAY.

    1. This mascara set (30% off)
    2. This mascaran primer (20% off)
    3. This blush set
    4. This red lipstick (30% off)
    5. This amazing top coat (30% off)
    6. This contouring set
    7. This Glotion (33% off)
    8. This spackle primer (61% off)
    9. These beauty blenders (40% off)

Two white striped pillows with a label reading "Original Down Alternative, Queen 2 PK" attached. A note states they were purchased five times, with the last purchase on Feb 19, 2025.

// my favorite pillows //

4. These amazing pillows

Let’s GO with these pillows. They are absolutely amazing and have the perfect amount of give and fluff.

I’m not even sure it’s a thing, but it seems like the perfect way to describe them.

I’ve purchased them 5 times and the twins even requested them when they left for college.

The set of two is on amazing deal right now—44% off and an extra 20% off coupon.

You can see the set of pillows here.

A bottle of AmLactin Intensive Healing lotion with a pump sits on a marble bathroom counter. The label highlights "15% lactic acid" and "new improved formula" for dry, flaky, ashy skin.

// this solution for crepy skin //

5. This solution for crepy skin

This is actually not my solution.

I’ve been dealing with crepy skin on my arms and I reached out to a friend of mine who is a big YouTuber and a dermatologist.

And she recommended this AmLactin Intensive Healing Body Lotion.

I ordered it a while back and I’ve been using it ever since and it has made SUCH A DIFFERENCE. I use it right after the bath and it seals in all the moisture and my skin still looks soft and generally uncrepy the next day.

You can see this solution for crepy skin.

Tri-fold white vanity mirror with built-in LED lights around the central panel. Left side has 2X and 3X magnifying mirrors, right side is standard, and a removable 10X circular magnifying mirror is attached at the top right.

// lighted make-up mirror //

6. A lighted make-up mirror

There is nothing better sometimes than a really good make-up mirror.

(total aside: although sometimes I surprise myself when I look at that 10X side around. Yikes.)

This one has everything.

It has a regular mirror in the center that is well lit and a 10X side and a 2X and 3X on the other side.

You can see the make-up mirror here.

A pair of stylish sunglasses with light pink transparent square frames and brown gradient lenses, featuring thin gold metal arms and curved tips.

// these neutral sunglasses //

7. These sunglasses

I get so many compliments on these sunglasses.

And they are 36% off today.

They are a beautiful see-through neutral that goes with everything and they have this gold ear hook at the end that really holds them onto your ears.

(total aside: not sure if ear hook is the right word, but I couldn’t think of anything else to describe it).

They come in tons of other colors, but this one is my favorite and that makes them the perfect summer of 2025 sunglasses.

You can see the sunglasses here.

// The Little Green Machine //

8. The Little Green Machine

This is my go-to stain remover.

I’ve told tons of people about it, but I never ever ever recommend buying it unless it’s on sale.

Like today.

Did you see the deal on the Little Green Machine?

Lowest price I’ve ever seen.

You can see it here.

A person wearing high-waisted black leggings with a phone pocket on the side, which holds a smartphone. The person stands on a plain white background.

// my go-to leggings //

9. My go-to leggings

I have talked about these leggings since I first found them three years ago.

They feel like a much higher-end brand and are so buttery soft.

They also have pocket and a tummy control band at the top.

You can see my favorite leggings here.

A set of three round wooden trays with beaded edge details stacked on top of each other, arranged on a white surface. The trays vary in size, with the smallest on top and the largest at the bottom. The beads are evenly spaced around the edges of the trays.

// set of three wood bead risers //

10. These wood bead risers

This set of three wood bead risers is PERFECT for adding a little bit of height.

This set is kind of next level for a spring display. It comes in a set of three with the cutest wood beads, looks so high end and in amazing news?

THE ENTIRE SET IS UNDER $15 on sale right now.

You can see it here.

Modern handheld garment steamer with a translucent blue water tank and ergonomic handle design.

// this travel steamer //

11. This travel steamer

I seriously can’t remember life before I found this steamer.

It may or may not have involved an iron.

Now?

All I need is this to keep everything un-wrinkled. I use it on everything—from duvet covers to dresses to curtains.

You can see the travel steamer here.

A neatly made bed with a white comforter, pillows, and a beige accent behind the pillows is positioned in front of a large window with sheer curtains. A wooden side table with a potted plant and a folded gray blanket at the foot of the bed complete the cozy scene.

// this queen-size duvet cover //

12. This queen-size duvet set

I try never to pay full price for linens.

I just ordered this for the Cape and it’s SO soft.

It’s under $15 for the white set with the shams (but it comes in tons of other colors, too) and it feels so high-end. If you are looking for a summer bed refresh? This set is such a good value for the price.

You can see the queen-size duvet set here.

A stack of four neatly folded white towels, each featuring a textured decorative band near one end, placed against a plain background.

// these fluffy towels //

13. These fluffy towels

There’s nothing better than a fluffy towel and these are some of my favorites.

The towels wash really well and get fluffier with each wash.

I’ve used them for several years and ordered them two different times.

You can see the towels here.

A set of six gray packing cubes in various sizes is shown. Each cube has a handle and a mesh panel for ventilation. The design includes illustrations of various travel-related items on the front. The largest bag has an extended handle for easy carrying.

// these compression packing cubes //

14. These compression packing cubes

Have you ever used these before?

I have a set with me here at the Cape.

There are several different types of compression packing cubes and the way these work is they have technology that compresses the cubes with a zipper.

He loved them and they saved so much space in his suitcase.

You can see them here.

Four white flameless taper candles with glowing tips are arranged in a row against a black background. A remote control with various buttons for timer and brightness settings is placed next to the candles.

// battery operated candles//

15. Battery-operated candles

Hello summer and holiday mantels, I’m looking at you.

These battery-operated candles are my go-to for making my mantel sparkle.

These candles come in a set of four, have a remote and you can adjust the flicker.

You can see the battery-operated candles here.

A woman in a bright pink dress stands smiling in a sunlit room. The space features blue and white striped chairs, a pink dresser with flowers, and a large window in the background. The decor is cheerful and elegant.

// pink and red ric rack dress  (on sale today) // pink bow shoes // more affordable pink bow shoes //

And one last note—be sure and leave a comment below if there is anything specific you are shopping for, and I’ll research it for you.

I’ll also be updating the folders on Amazon as the deals are posted.

Thank you again for shopping with me.

We Amazon shoppers have to keep together.

PS Thank you for your understanding about the timeliness of this content.

I adore this community so much.

And again, just know that I want to help in any way that I can—no matter how small, so I’m donating a portion of my affiliate sales this week to help those affected by the tragedy.

    Thank you, Karianne, for suggesting the Amazon prime towels. My sister’s home was flooded in Helene in Tampa. She is slowly making her way back and living in A Work In Progress house. Gently worn household items have been the woof and weave but every now and then we need new. Today she got new as the value was great and affordable. I knew if you like them, she will. Many thanks, you’re #1!

    Kariann I have been praying for Texas since this whole thing began. . For you and your family. I was happy for you to hear your home is ok, and so is your family. I think the whole country and then some are praying that Texas gets the help they deserve, and the strength they need. It always amazed me how communities come together, stranger helping stranger. Buffalo is sending EDOH, Eight Days of Hope. They are a private organization headquartered in Mississippi but has a satellite office here in the Buffalo area, and 1 inCedar Rapids. that helps to rebuild homes in different areas. They are totally made up of private citizens who volunteer their time and skills. I’m sure other communities will send aid also. Please try to enjoy the rest of your vacation, thanks for doing our shopping again, and God bless Texas, and the USA.
