Listen up: Our senior tech writer, Rick Broida, has spent the past two decades testing (and testing, and re-testing) hundreds of earbuds. So, when he's surprised by just how good a $40 pair performs, you need to check them out ASAP. When he tested some of the best earbuds on the market, he named this pair the best budget option, praising their sound quality and noise-canceling abilities. And this wallet-friendly option just got even more budget-friendly, currently down to $20 — the lowest we've ever seen them.

We haven't seen the price on this shower head dip this low in months.

This fixed shower head is high flow, has five different settings and is made with rust-proof chrome. This shower head has a massive fanbase — it's racked up nearly 15,000 five-star reviews peppered with phrases like "rivals the high-end ones" for its high-pressure flow. It's easy to install — you won't need to call a plumber to get it up and running. It's a fixed head but you can adjust the angles, thanks to the ball joint. This shower head is also made with rust-proof chrome and has 47 self-cleaning nozzles. Shoppers can't say enough good things about it.

Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set. This top-seller comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need: a 3-inch paring knife, 5-inch serrated utility knife, 7-inch santoku knife, 8-inch chef's knife and 8-inch bread knife. Also included: six 4.5-inch steak knives, a professional honing steel, kitchen shears and a hardwood knife block. Whew! 

This bestselling collection is majorly marked down from its list price of $345, though we've never actually seen it shoot that high. Still, this is a stellar price for a comprehensive set with such high ratings.

Why keep tripping over shampoo bottles when these handy shower shelves exist? This popular set claims to hold up to 40 pounds (that's a lot of gel, conditioner and body wash) and comes with five storage racks in different sizes for all your bathtime essentials. All you need to do is apply the included adhesive to stick 'em on the wall. 

Some colors, like rose gold, retail for $70, so the fact that this one is over 70% less? Grab a set for every bathroom!

You might not be able to drink pumpkin spice lattes all day, but your home can smell like one! More than 10,000 shoppers have purchased this No. 1 bestselling beauty in the past month alone, and the number is sure to go up from there.

We spotted Michelle Pfeiffer wearing a black turtleneck nearly identical to this one, which is currently on sale for the lowest price we've seen — just $28!

Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. And now this set is only $40 (down from $70). 

The containers are made of glass — but not just any glass. We're talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles. Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what's packed inside, but it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F and can go in the microwave without a lid. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away.

In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin has never crossed your mind, take it from a slew of Amazon shoppers — it's effective! This top-rated serum was purchased by over 100,000 people in the past month alone, thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects. Snail mucin not only helps boost collagen and elastin for a firmer look and feel, but it can also gently exfoliate for a smoother texture while soothing the skin. Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots. 

It was a few dollars lower for July Prime Day, but whenever it dips down to $15 or less, you know you're getting a worthwhile deal.
