With Amazon's Big Spring Sale running from March 25 to 31, we're obviously on the hunt for great deals on the retailer's Kindles. But to only be looking at Kindles would be a mistake. There's a whole wide world of e-readers out there, including those that happen to also be on sale. While it's not technically part of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, Kobo is running a deal on its Kobo Libra Colour, marking it down $30.
Usually $229.99, the Kobo Libra Colour is our favorite color e-reader. With its under-$250 price tag, it's cheaper than Kindle's Colorsoft (16GB) and comes with twice the storage. On sale, the Kobo Libra Colour is down to $199.99, saving you $30 for 13% off.
Amazon already dropped the price on its Colorsoft ahead of the Big Spring Sale, down to $169.99, so while it's technically cheaper than the Kobo Libra Colour for a limited time, the Libra Colour is still the superior e-reader. It comes with 32GB of storage, adjustable warmth and brightness, and it's fully waterproof. Plus, it has writing capabilities and is compatible with the Kobo remote. But maybe the best feature of the Kobo Libra Colour is its page-turning buttons, a rare but sought-after feature in an e-reader.
Shop the Kobo Libra Colour for just $199.99 and save $30 while jumpstarting your spring reading.
Sonys latest earbuds rock — and theyre at their lowest price ever for Amazons Big Spring Sale
Save $31.99: Get the new Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds for just $298 at Amazon, down $31.99 from their $329.99 list price. This deal, which is live as of March 25, saves you 10% total on the noise-cancelling earbuds.
Sony WF-1000XM6 $298 at Amazon$329.99 Save $31.99 Get Deal at Amazon
As a professional headphones reviewer, I make sure to keep a sharp eye out for any audio deals during events like Amazon's Big Spring Sale, especially for (ever-increasingly) expensive flagship models.
The sale runs from March 25 to 31, and while that may bring some temptation to wait for the best possible deals, Amazon's already dropped what I anticipate will be one of the best earbuds deals of the sale: the discount on the Sony WF-1000XM6 that brings them down to $298.
If you just rolled your eyes, I get it. Yes, it's only a $31.99 markdown, but it's worth zooming out. These earbuds dropped just last month on Feb. 12, and though the upgrades weren't revolutionary, they improved on what was already a really solid product in the XM5 earbuds. Honestly, it's not a given that a product this new gets any discount at all, so it's notable that the XM6 buds have dropped to their lowest price ever, and dipped under $300 for the first time.
SEE ALSO: The best Apple deals to shop from the Amazon Big Spring Sale — save on AirPods, iPads, and MacBooksIn my review of the earbuds, I determined that, as expensive as they are, Sony justifies the price point by bringing to the table the most well-rounded earbuds on the market. The noise cancellation is on par with that of Bose (the usual leader in the ANC space), the sound is the best I've personally heard on a pair of earbuds (and is only improved with the app's equalizer features), and the battery life runs for an impressive eight hours. And I say this as an ardent budget earbuds defender.
The only real feature of these earbuds that felt incongruent with their price point was that the touch controls took some getting used to — there's a smaller surface area for activating them, so there was somewhat of a learning curve to using them. That said, they felt less obviously flawed than the $299 Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 earbuds, and emerged as the clear winner for anyone looking for the best premium earbuds available.

Amazon won’t tell you about these Big Spring Sale deals on sex toys, but I will
It’s almost springtime (regardless of what the weather might suggest), and Amazon’s Big Spring Sale will be here before we know it. This year, it’s running from March 25 to March 31 (the same dates as last year's sale), and shoppers can expect discounts on tons of products across just about every category.
SEE ALSO: I've tested 100+ sex toys. Here are the 15 most mind-blowing toys I've ever owned.One category you won’t see Amazon advertising, however, is sex toys. They’re literally not allowed to promote these items in their major sale pushes (I'm so done with the censorship), but that’s OK — because I know exactly where to look to find the best deals.
Wait, I thought buying sex toys on Amazon wasn’t a good idea?OK, so you all probably already know how I feel about buying sex toys on Amazon: it’s usually a bad idea. BUT, there are ways to get legit deals on premium sex tech without compromising on product safety or quality.
Here are a few quick pointers:
Never buy from sketchy third-party sellers (that’s where I come in!).
Always, always check for official brand storefronts to double-check product authenticity and warranty info.
Do NOT buy anything that’s made with “jelly” or “rubber.” Anything porous is a no-go.
Read the reviews! If a product has zero reviews or the reviews look suspiciously generic, move on.
When in doubt, buy directly from the manufacturer’s website.
The best Amazon Big Spring Sale sex toy deals you can buy right nowTo help you out, I went through hundreds of pages of products and hand-selected a list of high-quality sexual wellness items that are not only on sale but also safe for you to use.
Best overall Opens in a new window Credit: Satisfyer Satisfyer Pro 2 $48.40 at Amazon$69.95 Save $21.55 Get Deal Why we like it
Satisfyer is famous for its suction toys and right now you can get the Satisfyer Pro 2 for just $48.40 (a 31% discount). This brand also leans into just about every holiday sale, so you’ll usually see its top vibes discounted during these promotional periods (especially Prime Day and Black Friday).
This toy looks like a face massager/cleaner, but it's actually a super-powerful suction toy designed to provide clitoral stimulation through non-contact pressure waves. (The company is pretty much known for its suction/airpulse tech.) This particular toy (which I own) has more than 61K reviews and a 3.9-star rating.
At under $50, it’s definitely worth considering if you’re into indirect clitoral stimulation. It’s also really easy to hold (which is always a plus).
Best budget pick plusOne vibrating bullet $8.99 at Amazon$14.99 Save $6 Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it
As far as the best “deal” goes, you can’t go wrong with the plusOne vibrating bullet. PlusOne is a well-known (more affordable) sex toy brand that’s widely recognized for its no-frills toys. (I own a ton of plusOne toys.) They lack bells and whistles, but they’re reliable, and I haven’t had any complaints about the orgasm-inducing efficacy of their vibrators.
I chose the bullet vibe because it’s only $8.99. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal elsewhere. Plus, it has more than 7K reviews — one of which says, “For such a compact toy, it's surprisingly powerful and definitely worth having.” Can’t argue with that.

The Brick is on sale during Amazons Big Spring Sale — but not at Amazon
SAVE $11.80: While Amazon's Big Spring Sale kicks off, shop the Brick for 25% off. Shop now on Brick's site and save $11.80 off its $59 price tag. That brings the subscription-free screen time device down to $47.20.

Now that warmer weather is finally here for most of the country and we're no longer stuck inside, it's time to get your screen time under control. A little spring reset could do everyone some good, especially when you've been inside all winter staring at a screen. There's no better way to get off your phone than with the Brick. I've long sung our praises of the screen time device that helped me cut my screen time in half. I've convinced my coworkers and friends to get the Brick, and I endorse buying it at full price, so when it's on sale, I say buy, buy, buy.
Just in time for spring, Brick is marking down its screen time device. Now 25% off, you can shop the Brick for just $47.20. That saves you $11.80 off its $59 list price. This sale isn't technically part of Amazon's Big Spring Sale since the Brick isn't on sale at Amazon — you can only shop the sale on Brick's website. However, the timing of Brick's sale is likely no coincidence.
Unlike screen time limits or apps, the Brick is a physical device to manage your screen time. To use, open the Brick app (available for both iOS and Android devices) on your phone and tap against the Brick. You can customize your Brick modes to include whatever apps you need blocked. You can block your most problematic apps like TikTok and Instagram, or go full dumb phone. Plus, multiple people can use the Brick, so you and a partner or roommate can go halfsies on it. Not to mention, the Brick is a one-time purchase, aka there are no subscription fees.
Get the Brick for 25% off now, just $47.20.
Stick vacuums on sale in Amazons Spring Sale: Shark is dunking on Dyson right now
Take it from someone who tests multiple robot vacuums each month: Not even the best robot vacuum AI features are immune to screwing up. If you're inclined to just do the job yourself — or if the concept of a robot vacuum with a camera sketches you out — at least make the chore enjoyable with a good stick vacuum. Amazon has a ton of well-reviewed cordless vacuums on sale ahead of the Big Spring Sale kickoff on March 25.
SEE ALSO: Robot vacuums vs. stick vacuums: Shopping advice from someone who has bothOur favorite cordless vacuum deals so far are all vacuums that someone at Mashable has tested at home and loved. I'll admit that any list of top stick vacuums feels weird without multiple Dyson mentions — Amazon typically isn't a reliable spot to find good deals on Dyson vacuums (even though Amazon's deals on other Dyson products can be quite good.) Most worthwhile Dyson deals simply tend to pop up Dyson.com, like the Dyson V12 Detect Slim on sale for $479.99. Maybe it's delusional, but I'm optimistic about the possibility of a discount on the new Dyson PencilVac Fluffycones.
Below, I'm tracking the best cordless vacuums on sale at Amazon pre-Big Spring Sale, including deals on cordless wet and dry vacuums.
Best Amazon cordless stick vacuum deal Shark PowerDetect Pet Plus Clean & Empty IP3253 $399.99 at Amazon$599.99 Save $200 See It at Amazon Why we like it
There are actually two great Shark stick vacuum deals live at Amazon: The $249 Shark Clean & Empty model is probably the most affordable self-emptying stick vacuum you'll find this season. The other, which I'm highlighting here, is probably the most powerful self-emptying stick vacuum you'll find. $399.99 for that title is more than reasonable.
Though I'm constantly recommending the lightweight Dyson V12 Detect Slim for dust and pet hair on hard floors, the Shark PowerDetect is easily the beastliest vacuum I've tested on carpet — you can literally feel the vigorous double brushroll system digging into the floor. The Clean & Empty Sharks automatically empty the dustbin every time they're hung on the dock to charge, so you won't have to deal with emptying the larger dock dustbin for at least 45 days (it's much longer in my experience). Past the mega convenience, an always-empty dustbin provides visible proof of just how much gunk the PowerDetect has sucked up in the area you're currently sweeping.

So many good self-emptying robot vacuums are on sale in Amazons Big Spring Sale
The question isn't whether it's worthwhile to get a self-emptying robot vacuum. It's simply which self-emptying robot vacuum you should get. And the list of potential options in your budget is much longer around Amazon's Big Spring Sale, which will run between March 25 and 31. A ton are already severely discounted in the week before the sale, including a few of my favorites that I've tested so far this year.
SEE ALSO: The Shark vs. Roomba debate is stale in 2026, but at least Shark is trying to revive its robot vacuum lineAutomatic emptying isn't at all reserved for the best of the best robot vacuums as was the case five years ago — I'd argue that it's the most normalized feature outside of the vacuuming itself, even in the realm of cheap robot vacuums under $300. The unspoken agreement is that if you're buying a robot vacuum to avoid vacuuming by hand, you're not going to feel like manually dumping a dust bin every day, either.
Below, I'm tracking the best self-emptying robot vacuums on sale ahead of Amazon's 2026 spring sale. More good deals are likely to drop in the coming days, and I'll be updating this post accordingly.
Best self-emptying robot vacuum deal ahead of Amazon's Big Spring Sale Eufy C28 $499.99 at Amazon$799.99 Save $300 Get Deal at Amazon Get Deal at Eufy Why we like it
I tested and loved the Eufy C28 when it came out in February 2026. And I have a feeling it'll remain one of my most recommended robot vacuum and mop combos for the next year or so.
On sale for less than $600, the Eufy C28 is probably the most affordable roller mop robot vacuum you'll find. The fluffy roller spans the entire bottom of the vacuum and rinses itself with fresh water as it's mopping, making it a far more reliable choice for soaking up large liquid spills (without smearing them around) than other cheap mopping robot vacuums. Its self-emptying dock also washes and dries the mop after each cleaning, so it's easier to forgive how painfully loud it is.
Its small obstacle avoidance was surprisingly accurate during my testing — it avoided slippers and hand towels, cat toys, and (most) phone chargers as well as many premium vacuums.
