TODAY’S BEST TECH DEALS

SanDisk 500GB Portable USB-C Drive | $85 | Amazon

There’s no worse time to lose all your movies and tunes than when there’s not much else to do. There are lots of ways to remedy this, but having an external drive with plenty of space can give you some peace of mind by giving you a place to back everything up, and help you bring all your info with you everywhere without weighing down your bag. SanDisk’s 500GB Portable USB-C drive is down to $85 today at Amazon, a savings of $65 off the list price.

Premium Learn to Code 2021 Certification Bundle | $20 | StackSocial

While you’re home waiting for your turn to get a jab, it might be fun for your brain to learn something new. For a short time, you can grab a Premium Learn to Code 2021 Certification Bundle for only $20!! And what do you gain with this bundle, you ask? Well, a bunch of stuff including JavaScript, SwiftUI Apps, a complete C# programming course, Python, Raspberry Pi, HTML, CSS, and 20 other complete courses you’d need to be a professional coder.

I personally don’t know much about coding besides the skills needed to make the most popping MySpace profile of 2008, however, coding is a great skill to have in your pocket, especially in the current (and sucky) job market. Plus, just one of these courses would be about $100 by itself and you’re getting 27 courses with 2,700 lessons for $20, which is like 115% off (well actually it’s 99.5% off, but join me in the drama), so quite honestly you’re getting a huge deal. Invest in your future or something and grab it while it’s hot!

Treblab Z2 Wireless Headphones | $69 | Amazon

Amazon shoppers can take 43% off these high-end wireless headphones from Treblab. The Z2s are quality, and I was extremely impressed with the ANC. These are perfect for working out or for someone who likes to tune out the world, literally. I’ve been using the Z2s for a few months or so and can tell you they are extremely comfy. They paired quickly and seamlessly. For their size, they are pretty lightweight and fit perfectly into a rather fetching hardshell case when not in use. The built-in mic for calls was clear and crackle-free. I take a lot of calls, so this was a significant feature for me. You’ll get well over thirty hours of playtime off of one charge, and the three-hour quick charge has you taking these on the road a lot sooner than others on the market. There are easy button controls, and you can even link up with your chosen voice assistant, such as Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa. If you need a more affordable pair of wireless noise-canceling headphones, these are a great option.

Free one-day shipping on these for Prime members. This deal will run until June 7.

Anker Soundcore Life A1 Wireless Earbuds | $42 | Amazon

On the hunt for affordable wireless earbuds? Anker’s Soundcore Life A1 buds are cheap, plus they have some features you might not expect at this price point. Currently marked down 15% to $42 at Amazon, these waterproof buds have a wirelessly-chargeable battery case and have serious battery life at nine hours per charge with another three full charges available in the case. Amazon customers give ‘em a strong 4.6-star rating—fantastic at this price, especially.

For a limited time, you can talk to Alexa on your choice of the latest Echo Dot Kids Edition (or the regular Echo Dot if you hate fun), the 4th Gen standard Echo, the 3rd Gen Echo Dot, the Echo Auto, the Echo Show 5, and the Echo Show 8 if you’re so inclined, for up to 50% off the sticker prices.

That’s right, whether you’re looking to add smart features to your car or adorn your nightstand with a friggin’ sweet tiger, uhh, for the kids, you can’t go wrong with an Amazon Echo smart speaker. In her review of the 2020 upgrade, Gizmodo’s Victoria Song had this to say:

“If you’re on an OG Amazon Echo or a second-generation Echo, you could probably do with the boost in audio quality. Other than the improved audio quality and the new round design, many of the upgrades just aren’t that noticeable. At the end of the day, I’m left feeling, like, ‘Well, this is the round Echo with surprisingly decent audio that does pretty much what my other Echo speakers do.’
Like I said, it’s round. That’s the story.”

Load your home (and car?) with smart speakers while the deals last, if that’s the kind of thing you’re into.

This deal was originally published by Gabe Carey in December 2020 and updated by Andrew Hayward with new information on 05/31/2021.

Apple AirPods (Wired Charging Case) | $120 | Amazon
Apple AirPods (Wireless Charging Case) | $160 | Amazon

If you’ve been itching to up your audio game, or just need something to drown out the noise in your makeshift home office, consider Apple’s AirPods, which you can get for $120 on Amazon right now. That’s a $39 savings off the list price, and about $10 less than we’ve seen them lately at Amazon.

Want a case you can toss onto a wireless charging pad for an effortless power boost? The same AirPods with a wireless charging case are $160 right now, or $49 off the list price.

In either case, they’re incredibly portable, so you can carry them with you around the house, easy to pull out when you need to chat with someone, and they easily pair with all your Apple devices so you don’t have to keep futzing with Bluetooth settings all day.

And if you don’t mind paying a bit more, upgrade to the fancier AirPods Pro with active noise canceling, silicone tips, and a wireless charging case for $197 ($52 off).

TODAY’S BEST GAMING DEALS

PowerA Animal Crossing Controller (Switch) | $32 | Walmart

For many folks, Animal Crossing came out at the perfect time. Early Spring, lockdown orders just went into effect. Many are out of work while also instructed not to go out and see friends or family. Animal Crossing came along and for a little while, it was the only routine parts of our days. It was a wonderful distraction from our social world’s crumbling around us. Instead of seeing Debra at the office everyday to chat about her kids, we saw Blathers to chat about bugs. Though eventually, like any game, lots of us got our fill and put it down to make room for something else. But our animal friends we made in March of last year are waiting to see us and catch up. From their perspective, we had just gone into our houses one day and never came out for over a year (which might not be dissimilar to our real world experiences through 2020-early 2021). So why not get this Nintendo Switch controller with K.K. Slider’s face on it and go tell him about it in person?

$50 PSN Gift Card | $43 | Eneba | Use code DAYSOFPLAYPROMO — $50 PSN Gift Card | $43 | Eneba | Use code **DAYSOFPLAYPROMO**

Sometimes, it’s okay to treat yourself. We’re always made to think that you buy gifts for other people, not yourself, but I’m here to squash that myth. It’s been a really hard year! It’s okay to buy yourself a little something whenever you feel like it and call it a gift. In that spirit, you can currently get a $50 PlayStation Store gift card for $43 at Eneba when you use the code DAYSOFPLAYPROMO at checkout. While that won’t buy you a brand new full retail AAA game, $50 can go a very long way. Stock up on indies or use it to clear out the digital storefront during its next sale. The choice is yours. As long as you are buying video games, I am happy.

School of Game Design Lifetime Membership | $49 | StackSocial

Have you ever been playing a game and gone into armchair developer mode? You know what I mean. It’s that time where you start to rant about what the developers should have done, regardless of whether or not that was possible. If you’re one of those people, perhaps you’d be interested in learning how to make games yourself. You can currently grab a lifetime membership to the School of Game Design for $49 via StackSocial. This would usually cost you close to $6,000, so, uh, this is quite a deal. You’ll get access to an extensive training library that’ll teach you how to make 2D and 3D games that you won’t lose access to. That’s all for less than the price of a full retail AAA game.

$50 Nintendo Gift Card | $44 | Eneba | Use code 50STARTOFJUNE — $50 Nintendo Gift Card | $44 | Eneba | Use code **50STARTOFJUNE**

You can grab a $50 Nintendo gift card for $44 today at Eneba when using the promo code 50STARTOFJUNE. And you know what? Sure, why not? Here’s the thing: we all know that Nintendo is pretty reluctant when it comes to discounts on its big games. Animal Crossing: New Horizons came out over a year ago and it’s still full price. Compare that to companies like Ubisoft who slash games by $30 within six months. See where I’m going with this? If you save money on a gift card and use it to buy first-party Nintendo games, it’s like using a $6 coupon. Don’t tell Nintendo about this. They will surely come after me for revealing this.

Numskull Sonic & Dr Eggman 30th Anniversary Statue | $80 | Amazon

It’s Sonic’s 30th Anniversary and our 30th year being terrorized by this horrifying blue blur. The speedy usurper with an attitude ate poor Wario and took his seat as our CEO. He is now trying to actively erase history with this $80 Limited Edition Statue—painting himself as the innocent victim while portraying Dr. Eggman as the aggressor. Let me be clear. Dr. Eggman has PhDs in both animal science and mechanical engineering. He is a credit to the scientific community. His research has saved countless lives. Sonic has added nothing but frequent setbacks to science with his crazed antics. Unfortunately, at the end of the day, Sonic is the one who signs my paychecks. Whether I like it or not, do as he says and pre-order his 30th Anniversary Statue.

Kingdom Hearts III: Shadow Bring Arts Action Figure Set | $42 | Amazon

So Dad may not be the biggest JRPG fan. Dad may not even know what those letters mean. Dad is even so out of touch, the only animated movie of the Disney Renaissance he’s seen is Lion King and he has some weird opinions about it. Doesn’t matter. This gift could mean the world to him. He might finally understand why you spend hours in front of that dang TV instead of instead of in the garage working on the car like he would do. This Kingdom Hearts III: Shadow Bring Arts Action Figure Set has the potential of bringing your bond with Dad closer than it ever has been. We don’t know what that potential is precisely, but hey let’s find out. Father’s Day is June 20th this year by the way. Don’t let it sneak up on you.

NBA 2K21 (Xbox One) | $10 | Amazon
NBA 2K21 (XSX) | $30 | Amazon
NBA 2K21 (PS5) | $30 | Amazon — *NBA 2K21* (Xbox One) | $10 | Amazon
*NBA 2K21* (XSX) | $30 | Amazon
*NBA 2K21* (PS5) | $30 | Amazon

It’s basketball season, baby! And not because of the actual, real life. It’s because Space Jam is coming back and everyone’s mad about it. Let’s go! LeBron James is going to star in a new sequel and adults are raging about it because Warner Bros. cut the cartoon skunk that kisses women from it. Also, people are angry because Lola Bunny ... you know what, let’s not get into this. Instead, here’s something less infuriating. NBA 2K21 is on sale for $10. This game features LeBron James, but also lacks playboy skunks and hot rabbits, so it’s basically a Space Jam video game.

PlayStation Plus - 12 Months | $45 | Amazon

Back at the launch of Destiny 2: Beyond Light, I made my not-so triumphant return to the Crucible, the game’s PVP mode. As it turned out, everyone had gotten better at the game, and I’d gotten much worse. If you want to raise your K/D ratio fast, here’s a tip: all you have to do is log into a match that I’m in and wait for me to shoot hand cannon shots 20 feet above your head, giving you ample time to one-shot me with just about any weapon, it seems.

If you’re a PlayStation owner and you want in on this easy target practice, you’ll need to make sure you have PlayStation Plus, which allows you to play games like Destiny 2 online. You can get a full year of Sony’s online service for $45 at Amazon. Make sure to wave emote in my direction before you embarrass me into orbit.

Fortnite Hazard Platoon Pack (Xbox) | $3 | Eneba — *Fortnite* Hazard Platoon Pack (Xbox) | $3 | Eneba

It’s a Fortnite pack y’all. Save on V-Bucks and get some cool skins all at once if you’re playing on Xbox. I never got into the game, but Twitch tells me a lot of people are still out there chugging jug and wiping out Tomato Town. If this is you, why not do it in a sweet new outfit?

SwimWays Star Wars Death Star XXL Beach Ball | $12 | Amazon

Get it? Like blow up the Death Star? Blow up can mean and explosion, but it can also—ah you know you what I mean. Well this thing is massive at 31 inches in diameter. It’s also got built-in LEDs so that’s pretty neat. It’s pool party season baby and we need to make up for last summer. Go ahead and buy two so you have a spare after your son Luke inevitably blows up the first one with his sister. No roughhousing in the pool, but ya know... kids.

I was like you once. I used cheap plastic dice for my attack rolls and ability checks. Before that, I was just using a dice roller app. Yes, either of those get the job done. In fact, a dice roller app will sometimes even do that pesky math for you. However, rolling a solid metal twenty-sided polyhedron across your friend’s table to hit a nat 20 just feels better. It’s indescribable. So go ahead and immerse yourself fully into your roleplay adventures as you roll damage with a fist full of metal with the weight of your character’s punch. Or if you’re worried about scratching the table, you can just display them under your computer monitor until ultimately putting them in a drawer because your new hairless cat won’t stop knocking them off the desk.

PGA Tour 2K21 (PS4) | $20 | Amazon
PGA Tour 2K21 (Xbox) | $20 | Amazon
PGA Tour 2K21 (Switch) | $20 | Amazon — *PGA Tour 2K21 (PS4)* | $20 | Amazon
*PGA Tour 2K21 (Xbox)* | $20 | Amazon
*PGA Tour 2K21 (Switch)* | $20 | Amazon

Swing for the greens in PGA Tour 2K21, which is currently marked down to just $20 on PlayStation 4/5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. It’s the first official entry in the series, although it’s essentially the latest edition of the fan-favorite The Golf Club series given fresh branding. I picked this up a couple months back on Xbox and have been digging the chill sim-golf swinging while playing online with an old friend. Join me! It’s $40 off the list price right now.

Ghost of Tsushima | $40 | Amazon — *Ghost of Tsushima* | $40 | Amazon

Sony has a big Memorial Day sale happening right now, including deals on its early PS5 games. But even PS4 owners can snag some killer deals. Case in point, you can now grab Ghost of Tsushima for $40. Sucker Punch’s open-world samurai game came out last year and it’s one you don’t want to miss. It features a gorgeous world and varied combat for both stealthy and aggressive players. More importantly, it features the best button prompt in history. At one point, you sit in some hot springs and the game prompts you to reflect on your uncle. It’s an incredible moment and you need to see it to believe it, so grab a copy.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Vinyl | $34 | Amazon
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Vinyl [Seven Evil Exes Edition] | $109 | Amazon — *Scott Pilgrim vs. The World* Vinyl | $34 | Amazon
*Scott Pilgrim vs. The World* Vinyl [Seven Evil Exes Edition] | $109 | Amazon

Whether you enjoyed the film or not, it’s a lot more inarguable how damn good the soundtrack is in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. The Seven Evil Exes Edition features every song from the movie as well as several unreleased tracks. For vinyl collector’s, this might be worth it alone for the Brie Larson version of Black Sheep which may or may not have made it on my Spotify Wrapped two years in a row.

The Secret World of Arrietty - Limited Edition Steelbook | $22 | Amazon

HBO Max has opened the doors for many more North Americans to fall in love Studio Ghibli. Though, there is still a place in our hearts for physical media.

World of Warcraft: New Flavors of Azeroth: The Official Cookbook | $25 | Amazon — *World of Warcraft*: New Flavors of Azeroth: The Official Cookbook | $25 | Amazon

Video game cookbooks are such an interesting concept. Especially when food and cooking are either such a small or just completely absent aspect of the game which the recipes are supposed to be from. I never fully got into World of Warcraft, but I imagine cooking is actually present at least in this series so it makes a bit more sense to release an official cookbook. I didn’t have a good enough computer during its supposed golden years. Though, what I do have now is my own kitchen in my apartment. Time to get what I imagine is the exact World of Warcraft experience by whipping up some Gnomeregan Gnuggets and Arden Apple Pie.

The Art of the Mass Effect Trilogy: Expanded Edition | $31 | Amazon

So since the release of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, several times a week I have gone to the Steam page, hovered over purchase, only to close out of the store. I adored this trilogy, imperfections and all. Though I have not touched the series since Mass Effect 3's final Citadel DLC released in 2013. I would love to go back and play through this masterpiece, but I just know deep down that if I buy it, I’ll end up playing partway through the first game before getting bored and moving onto something else. It’s not that I won’t think the first game holds up. I just can’t remember the last time I’ve seen a long game through to the end. The sweet spot for my attention span lately has been games I can finish in about ten hours. So if you’re like me, the best way to relive the Mass Effect trilogy will be getting this book for $31 and looking at all this cool art.
