Microsoft Office 2019 is on sale for £15 — pay once and use it forever

Wed, 07/09/2025 - 01:01

TL;DR: Hurry and grab lifetime access to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more with a Microsoft Office 2019 license for Windows at £14.69 through July 15.

Opens in a new window Credit: Retail King Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019 for Windows £14.69
£168.46 Save £153.77 Get Deal

Your credit card is exhausted from all of today’s subscription fees. While you probably don’t want to cancel Peacock and never see the ending of Yellowstone or say goodbye to two-day shipping with Prime, you could swap your Microsoft 365 subscription for a Microsoft Office lifetime license.

Now, you can pay once and use the apps as much as you’d like. For a little while longer, the Windows software suite is on sale for £14.69 through July 15.

What apps are included?

Microsoft Office 2019 isn’t the newest version available, but it’s the cheaper one for people who just need to use the apps and don’t care about what they look like inside. However, it does have a classic, timeless design.

Here's a list of the apps you get:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • PowerPoint

  • Outlook

  • OneNote

  • Publisher

  • Access

Differences between Microsoft 365 and a lifetime license

This purchase is a no-brainer if you aren’t taking full advantage of Microsoft 365’s OneDrive storage, mobile app access, and cloud-based backups. Those just wanting the apps should be more than comfortable with a Microsoft Office download.

You might actually like this license more than the subscription. The apps are downloaded directly onto your PC instead of hosted on the cloud. While this does mean there are no built-in cloud backups, you don’t have to worry about the hassle of trying to work offline.

Plus, now that Microsoft added Copilot’s AI features to Microsoft 365, you might be looking for a way to escape them. Not everyone is crazy about having a virtual robot interfere with their work, and these classic apps won’t ever bug you about it.

The price drop on this lifetime license to Microsoft Office 2019 for Windows ends soon, so get your download for £14.69.

If you regularly bounce between different streaming apps or spend too much time searching for free content online, a content finder can help you cut through the clutter. BitMar gives a single platform that pulls together movies, shows, channels, videos, and music from free sources across the web, so you don’t have to waste all that time looking for something to watch while your dinner gets cold.

Normally $150, a BitMar Lifetime Subscription just went on sale for only $14.99, but that’s not going to last much longer.

Find all the shows you’ve been missing

BitMar uses a content-filtering system powered by artificial intelligence, including the same core technology behind Bing Search, but with custom algorithms designed specifically for streaming. That means you can find and access millions of on-demand titles quickly, all organized in one place. Unlike general search engines, BitMar filters content to help surface movies, series, channels, and songs in a way that’s tailored to streaming discovery.

This lifetime subscription gives users access to the full BitMar platform without recurring fees. You can stream content on your existing devices, including smart TVs, phones, tablets, and desktops, or mirror to non-smart TVs using casting tools. BitMar supports up to five devices per account and works with most web-enabled systems, including Windows, Android, iOS, and Linux.

Instead of storing or pirating content, BitMar connects users to what’s already freely available online, working within copyright rules by directing traffic to the original sources. That includes official YouTube channels, free streaming sites, and on-demand TV networks. The platform is DMCA-compliant and aims to support sustainable content discovery by driving audiences to approved distribution points.

BitMar is especially useful for people interested in international content, or anyone who wants a single tool for navigating a huge library of free entertainment. With fewer ads on many videos and no ongoing cost, it can be a helpful alternative to juggling multiple subscriptions or relying solely on search engines.

Use code BITMAR5 if you want to get a BitMar Lifetime Subscription on sale for only $14.99. Sale ends July 20 at 11:59 p.m. PT.

My favorite Dyson vacuum is under $500 for Prime Day, but not at Amazon

Wed, 07/09/2025 - 00:46

SAVE $200: As of July 8, the Dyson V12 Detect Slim cordless vacuum is on sale for $449.99 at Walmart's Prime Day competition sale.

Opens in a new window Credit: Dyson Dyson V12 Detect Slim $449.99 at Walmart
$649.99 Save $200 Get Deal

If you're considering buying the Dyson V11 at Amazon for $399.99 this Prime Day, don't. Spend $50 more and snag the actual best Dyson deal this Prime Day: The Dyson V12 Detect Slim for $449.99 at Walmart's conveniently-timed summer sale.

I suggest the V12 Detect Slim to just about anyone who asks for a cordless vacuum recommendation because it's the cheapest Dyson vacuum with the green laser. If you're not yet a laser believe while reading this, I'm fully convinced that you will be the first time you shine it on a corner of your floor that looked debris-less otherwise. The laser highlights invisible hairs and tiny specks of dust that even the LED lights on other cordless vacuums I've tested don't pick up on.

SEE ALSO: My pick for best robot vacuum of 2025 gets its first-ever discount on Prime Day

Take the area around the litter box in my kitchen, for example. I use wheat or grass kitty litter (for sustainability reasons), which is tan and completely blends in with the hardwood. You can barely ever tell that there's tracked litter on the floor until you walk past it in bare feet.

Credit: Leah Stodart / Mashable

The most satisfying part is the visible proof that the V12 Detect Slim actually cleared the floor of debris. I even use it to see how well all of the robot vacuums I test are performing.

Even though the V11's suction power is ever so slightly stronger, there's much more to be said for such blatant direction to the spots in your home that aren't as clean as you thought they were. Plus, the V12 Detect Slim comes with two full-sized cleaning heads, while the V11's single Motor Bar cleaning head may not be as gentle on delicate hardwood or tile. Both offer around an hour of battery life on one charge and come with the mini motorized handheld attachment.

The Kobo Libra Colour is my favorite e-reader — and its got a rare Prime Day discount

Wed, 07/09/2025 - 00:35

SAVE $40: Grab the Kobo Libra Colour for just $209.99 at Amazon as of July 8. This Prime Day deal saves you 16% off the e-reader's $249.99 list price.

Opens in a new window Credit: Kobo Kobo Libra Colour $209.99 at Amazon
$249.99 Save $40 Get Deal

When I first saw the Kobo Libra Colour about a year ago, I was interested in the color display — but I was way more taken with the buttons.

Admittedly, the Kobo was more expensive than most Kindles (though there wasn't a color Kindle available at the time). However, a perk of my job is sometimes I get to test products I'm personally interested in — so I tested the Kobo Libra, found it to be a great (if not excellent) e-reader. I hesitated to get my own with the steep cost, but I was lucky that my boyfriend decided to buy me one for my birthday after my testing period was over. If he hadn't, I would almost certainly be jumping on this Prime Day deal that brings the Kobo Libra Colour down to $209.99.

SEE ALSO: 100+ Prime Day deals — get record-low prices on Apple, Ninja, and Samsung

The Kobo Libra Color gets the occasional markdown from its $249.99 price tag, but not too often, and certainly not at a price that puts it just $10 away from its lowest price ever. While more expensive than the Kindle Colorsoft's current sale price of $179.99, I would argue that for anyone particularly invested in their e-reader's ergonomics, the Libra Colour is a device worth investing in. Its square shape keeps things compact without sacrificing display real estate, and the buttons, paired with the internal gyroscope, are a game changer. It switches the text direction with just the right amount of sensitivity when you switch the position of the e-reader, and allows you to use the buttons on the right or left side without a hitch.

You can easily use the buttons on whichever side of the device you prefer. Credit: Bethany Allard / Mashable

Like the Kindle, the Kobo Libra Colour also has 32GB of storage, a seven-inch display, and an IPX8 waterproof rating. As for the color display, I can't say I use it that often. I love the color highlights when I'm in the mood to annotate, but I don't read that much actual color content. Still, I love that the covers of books appear in color. At the end of the day, I would probably spend $209 on an e-reader with the buttons in this shape — it's that good, and worth it (at least, until an e-reader maker gets it together and makes a budget model with buttons).

For all the pros, the Libra Colour does have its shortcomings: the tablet-like aspects aren't quite there due to some ghosting, lag, and inconsistent palm rejection. The color isn't crazy vibrant (more due to available tech than this specific e-reader), and it doesn't come with a case or stylus.

SEE ALSO: The 6 best e-readers of 2025, reviewed by someone who really loves books

I'm also mainly a library user, so I appreciate this e-reader's Overdrive integration that allows me to download books from Libby straight to my Kobo. But because the Kobo doesn't allow you to use multiple library cards at once, it does limit taking full advantage of the Libby catalog if you're a library hopper. Kobo's store also runs more expensive than Amazon's, but if I'm not using the library, I generally prefer to avoid buying books on Amazon (or anywhere that's not supporting independent sellers) regardless.

Kim K gave this Beats speaker a makeover — and we’re obsessed

Wed, 07/09/2025 - 00:17

TL;DR: Kim K meets Beats — this sleek wireless speaker looks chic, sounds incredible, and delivers 24 hours of portable summer vibes for just $89.99 (reg. $149.99).

Opens in a new window Credit: Beats by Dre Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian Collab Wireless Bluetooth Speaker $89.99
$149.99 Save $60.00 Get Deal

There are plenty of Bluetooth speakers out there. But how many of them look like a cool, minimalist design and sound like a tiny concert on your countertop? The new Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian collab is where fashion meets function in one sleek, neutral-toned speaker with serious audio muscle.

Let’s start with what makes this speaker worth the hype. Inside that soft-touch, modern casing is a reengineered woofer that pushes out 90 percent more air for bass that actually thumps. Pair that with a redesigned tweeter and upgraded magnets, and you’ve got crystal-clear highs, punchy mids, and enough depth to make even your chill playlist feel like a live set. Whether you’re blasting dance tracks at a beach hang or setting the mood for an impromptu patio dinner, this speaker delivers.

But it’s not just about the sound. This version of the Beats Pill is all about thoughtful design. It tilts your audio upward (instead of into the picnic blanket), gives you up to 24 hours of battery life, and even lets you charge your phone via USB-C. Oh, and it’s IP67-rated, which is a fancy way of saying it’s water- and dust-resistant enough to handle park hangs, poolside splashes, or the bottom of your canvas tote.

It works with Apple’s Class 1 Bluetooth, meaning it connects easily, stays connected longer, and can pair with your iOS or Android device in a matter of seconds. You can even press the power button twice to activate Siri or your Google Assistant.

It’s stylish, smart, durable, and loud (in the best way). If you’re building your ultimate summer setup, this speaker isn’t just an accessory — it’s a main character.

Get the Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian collab Bluetooth Pill Speaker while it’s just $89.99 (reg. $149.99) through July 15.

This AirTag alternative is flat, smart, and rechargeable

You swear you just had your wallet, but now it’s missing in action — again. It’s time to admit you might need a little backup. This credit card-sized tracker works with the same tracking network as Apple’s AirTag, except it fits snugly in your wallet.

There are other reasons to grab this wallet tracker card over the name brand, like the fact that it’s cheaper during this summer sale. Grab a 3-pack of the KeySmart SmartCards for $74.97 with free shipping (reg. $119.97). Plus, if you wish to use them in luggage, you don’t need to purchase keychain holders since they have a lanyard slot (or just slip it in a pocket inside).

Why you should get this instead of an AirTag

Still wondering why we’re obsessed with this seemingly random tracker card — beyond the savings and more convenient shape? Even though it’s not Apple brand, it works with the same Find My app on your Apple devices (just like the AirTag). This means you can:

Just like any electronic, it’ll eventually run dead. Those with the AirTag need to go out and buy replacement batteries, but if you have the SmartCard, you can recharge it with a Qi-enabled wireless charger.

Track your wallet with the KeySmart SmartCards for $74.97 (reg. $119.97) with free shipping when you order through July 15.

$219.99 Save $180.02 Get Deal

Companies may be trying to push the newest and best thing, but if you’re old school, then why not stick to what you know? Instead of paying for the latest apps every month, lock down lifetime access to your favorite Microsoft Office apps when you get Microsoft Office 2021. It’s only $39.97 (reg. $219).

What’s in your Microsoft Office 2021 license?

Microsoft Office 2021 includes all your favorite programs:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • PowerPoint

  • Outlook

  • Access

  • Teams

  • OneNote

  • Publisher

Home and business users rely on the basic suite of productivity tools they use daily to create documents, develop spreadsheets, manage emails, and stay in touch with contacts.

When you own these programs outright, you can access them offline and store all your documents locally on your computer. Users who want a reliable, widely compatible set of programs to perform basic computing will benefit from snagging this deal.

How Office 2021 compares to 365 and Office 2024

Office 2021 is a software suite perpetual license, unlike Microsoft 365, an ongoing subscription for cloud-based access to storage and Microsoft programs. When you purchase Office 2021, you make a single payment that indefinitely buys ownership of these programs. Microsoft 365 operates on recurrent monthly fees, which can change at any time; in fact, Microsoft just upped the fees for the consumer version of 365 for the first time in 12 years.

Office 2021 retains access to programs you won’t see anymore in all Office 2024 purchases, including Access, Publisher, and Outlook. Office 2021 also has familiar layouts. Office 2024 has modernized the look of the programs and integrated AI tools throughout, so if you want to stay with something familiar, the 2021 version is best.

Skip subscriptions and get a Microsoft Office 2021 lifetime license for just $39.97.

Sale ends July 15 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Supplies are limited.

Whether you’re coding, designing, streaming, or just working with 37 tabs open, Windows 11 Pro gives your PC the brains and brawn it deserves.

This isn’t your average operating system. Windows 11 Pro is built for pros, with a sleek interface that feels like it actually wants you to get stuff done. Snap layouts keep your windows tidy.

It answers your questions, rewrites your emails (you know the ones), generates code as you type, and even plays nice with GitHub. Just press the Windows + C key or tap the Copilot button, and boom — productivity unlocked. It’s like having a second brain, minus the coffee addiction.

All this power comes with a one-time, no-strings-attached lifetime license. That means you can install Windows 11 Pro once and enjoy it forever — no annual bills, no catch. If your machine has at least 4GB of RAM and 40GB of space, you’re good to go.

Own ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and more in one AI dashboard for just $30

$234 Save $204.03 Get Deal

If you’re using multiple AI apps to write content, generate images, summarize PDFs, or even clean up your grammar, there’s now a single platform that brings many of those tools together — and it’s currently available for a one-time payment of $29.97 (reg. $234) until July 15.

1minAI isn’t just one tool — it’s more like a personal AI dashboard that connects to some of the biggest models available today, including GPT-4, Claude 3, Gemini Pro, Llama 3, and others. You’ll get access to writing assistants, keyword researchers, image generators, audio-to-text transcription, translation, PDF summarizing, code helpers, and more — all bundled into one platform.

With the Pro Plan, you receive 1 million AI credits per month, with rollover for unused credits, plus 450,000 bonus credits if you use the platform consistently. That’s enough to generate a significant amount of content each month, whether you’re drafting articles, creating images for social posts, or just experimenting with AI tools for work or personal use.

There’s also no need to juggle multiple subscriptions — everything is covered under the lifetime license, and AI models include ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and so many others. The platform includes unlimited prompt storage, saved brand voices, file handling, and weekly updates as features improve over time.

This deal isn’t for everyone. If you only use AI occasionally or prefer to stick with free versions, it might be more than you need.

TL;DR: NanoPhone is small, but mighty — it delivers full smartphone functionality, and it’s now available for only $89.97 (reg. $199.99) through July 15.

In a world where we have numerous electronics we tote around (earphones, phones, and watches), the NanoPhone offers a refreshing alternative to the more-is-more narrative. This credit card-sized device delivers essential smartphone functionalities without the bulk, making it an ideal backup phone or a minimalist’s dream. For a limited time, you can get it for under $90 — that’s over half off the usual price of $199.99.

The device runs on Android 10, providing access to a wide range of apps to suit your needs. It should be noted that a SIM card or data plan is not included. If you want to use a 4G network to make phone calls, you must connect it to a service provider using a SIM card.

The NanoPhone is equipped with a 5MP rear camera and a 2MP front camera, enabling you to capture moments and engage in video chats effortlessly. Its three-inch IPS HD touchscreen offers clear visuals, and the 2000mAh battery allows for all-day power. Weighing just 2.3 ounces, it’s ideal for those who prefer a lightweight device without compromising functionality.

Whether you’re traveling, engaging in outdoor activities, attending events like weddings, or simply seeking a secondary device, the NanoPhone is designed to meet your needs. Plus, with expandable storage via a microSD card (not included), you have ample space for your apps, photos, and files.

This offer provides an affordable opportunity to own a versatile, compact smartphone that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

Don’t miss out: Prime members get 3 free months of Kindle Unlimited

SAVE $35.97: Get three months free of Kindle Unlimited, which is typically $11.99 per month.

Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Free 3-month membership to Kindle Unlimited Get Deal

Prime Day is packed with flashy discounts, but one of the simplest (and most worthwhile) offers this year doesn’t even cost a dime, at least for now. Prime members can get three months of Kindle Unlimited completely free.

This offer is available exclusively to Prime members as part of Amazon’s Prime Day event. It’s ideal for anyone looking to catch up on summer reading or dive into audiobooks for their next road trip or commute.

SEE ALSO: Kindle deals are rolling in on Prime Day — check out the best deals

Kindle Unlimited is Amazon’s digital subscription service that unlocks access to a massive catalog of over 200,000 e-books, thousands of audiobooks, and popular magazines. Whether you’re into thrillers, sci-fi, romance, biographies, or just want to flip through People or Better Homes & Gardens, there’s something here for every kind of reader.

Normally, Kindle Unlimited costs $11.99 per month, which makes this three-month trial a $36 value. After the trial period, it’ll auto-renew at the usual rate, though you can cancel anytime during the trial to avoid being charged.

And honestly, if you don't get it now, it'll come back again — Amazon literally loves giving away three months of Kindle Unlimited. Just remember to mark your calendar if you don’t want to continue after the trial ends.

Dysons headphones are finally at a manageable price thanks to this Prime Day deal

Tue, 07/08/2025 - 23:03

SAVE $200: The Dyson OnTrac headphones are on sale for $299.99, down from $499. That's 40% in savings.

$499 Save $199.01 Get Deal

I adore my Dyson OnTrac headphones, but I will never tell someone to spend $500 on a pair of headphones. There are plenty of outstanding options in the $200 to $400 range, most of which often go on sale for even less. Dyson has not been very generous with discounts — until now. During Prime Day, the premium headphones are on sale for $299.99, which is a much more digestible price for headphones, and one at which I will absolutely recommend the OnTracs.

Dyson's headphones are a standout for me because their sound quality and noise cancellation blow the competition out of the water. These are genuinely the best-sounding headphones I've ever tried. They're also incredibly comfortable, and the battery life lasts a whopping 55 hours with ANC turned on.

These aren't the most attractive headphones, in my opinion. They definitely scream "Dyson." But the design has grown on me, and they're certainly unique if you value self-expression. The outer ear caps and the ear cushions can both be swapped out for different colors for added customization.

This deal won't last long, so hurry and snag the Dyson OnTrac headphones while they're at a more affordable price.
