Amazon’s Presidents Day sale is officially live, and I’m genuinely impressed by these discounts. As a deals editor, I’ve been monitoring specials leading up to the holiday—but now that it’s here, I’m seeing major markdowns on top-tested brands that the Good Housekeeping Institute stands by (like 33% off the Shark FlexStyle Air Styling and Drying System, which I personally use on a daily basis).
While taking a deeper look, I found tons of other impressive Amazon deals—including a handful of record-low prices. For instance, the latest Apple Watch 11 is on sale for its lowest price ever—and we even found discounts on Lacoste polo T-shirts and cozy UGG blankets. Plus, tons of LEGO sets are on sale, like this bouquet of roses and these 101 Dalmatians puppies.
