50 Amazon Spring Sale deals under $50 we’d actually buy: Earbuds, video games, Legos on sale

Table of Contents

It’s been a great week for folks who might regret not snagging something on Black Friday: Amazon’s Big Spring Sale has been live for almost an entire week, ending March 31. The variety of items on sale is very similar to what we see on Prime Day (you just don’t have to wait for summer now).

That’s a lot of deals to sort through, even if you’ve decided that you’re staying away from big splurges this time around. With discounts like these, $50 is still plenty to cover the perfect birthday gift or a cute Mother’s Day gift (May 10 this year, FYI). We’ve been keeping a running list of our favorite deals under $50, organizing them into categories like headphones, home, and beauty. As they disappear, we’ll cross them out — so if you see a steal that’s still up for grabs on the last day, don’t hesitate to snag it.

(Want to spend even less? We’re also tracking the best Amazon deals under $25.)

Best Amazon device deal

Why we like it

Amazon sales are notoriously one of the best opportunities to snag Amazon devices. From Kindles to Fire TV sticks, Amazon loves to put its own products on huge discounts. If you could use a new bedroom smart speaker and clock, the Amazon Echo Spot has a sale price of $49.99, down from the standard price of $79.99. With a quick glance, you’ll be able to check the time, weather, and more without having to check your phone. Plus, you can set it to play your favorite wakeup playlist each morning.

Best earbuds deal

Why we like it

The Soundcore by Anker Space A40 earbuds usually come with a price of $79.99, but as long as you’re cool with navy, black, or white, they can be yours for less than $45. The Space A40 earbuds are designed to reduce noise by up to 98 percent, and they come with a massive 50 hours of playback time with the included case. If you’ve been putting up with a pair of headphones on the fritz, Amazon’s spring sale is a good opportunity to level up to nicer wireless earbuds ahead of warm weather.

Best home deal

Why we like it

It’s about to get hot. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but soon enough, we’ll be back in sweltering season. This year, head into the warmth with the Dreo TurboPoly Table Fan. Not only does it look great, it has four speeds, an 8-hour timer, and big oscillation power. Dreo says the fan is powerful enough to blow air up to 60 feet, so it’ll be ideal for a bedroom or office. Plus, it’s a quiet 28 decibels, so there’s no issue with sleeping with the fan on.

Best Lego deal under $50

Why we like it

A bonsai tree takes years to form into the perfect mini garden. Instead of laboring over the garden (or in addition to) snag the Lego Botanicals Japanese Red Maple Bonsai Tree while it’s on sale for $47.95. With orange and red leaves, the maple tree sits in its buildable green pot that’ll look excellent on a bookshelf.

Self-care and beauty deals under $50

Why we like it

Even the most affordable of our favorite Dyson Supersonic dupes and Airwrap dupes are still toeing the $100 mark this Big Spring Sale season (some aren’t on sale at all). If you’re looking for an even more budget-friendly hair tool for blowouts at home, the internet is really impressed with the L’Ange blowout brush that’s currently almost 30 percent off.

The Le Volume 2-in-1 blow dryer brush operates similarly to Dyson’s round brush attachment or the Shark Glossi, providing 360 degree airflow around a 60 mm barrel to create bouncy volume while taming frizz.
