Trim down and get big savings with Amazon’s 20% sale on the Fitbit Inspire HR

Getting the motivation to stay in shape may not be all that easy. Smartwatches may be great in terms of keeping up with the daily grind but if you’re looking for a virtual workout buddy, then a fitness tracker should do just the job. The

Fitbit Inspire HR could just be the most affordable fitness tracker

Fitbit has to offer priced at $100 but Amazon’s 20% sale lets you trim down and get big on savings by making it available for only $80.

The Inspire HR could basically be a slimmed-down and spruced up version of the recent Fitbit Charge 3. It captures Fitbit’s iconic look with rounded edges, a lightweight plastic casing, and two interchangeable silicone straps to fit quite a range of wrist sizes and personalities. It should be easy to find a compatible leather bracelet or metal mesh, for instance. You may find its relatively small build quite limiting as it can only deliver one stat at a time but it sure makes up for it with a highly-responsive OLED touchscreen and an intuitive interface.

Consistent with most fitness trackers, Fitbit’s Inspire HR tracks your steps, calories, distance, sleep, and activity all day for as long as you have it on. And HR wasn’t just affixed for fun, your heart rate is also monitored and works together with your phone’s GPS to account for pace, distance, and the route you took. Apart from SmartTrack that automatically recognizes your workouts, over 15 goal-based exercise modes can be found on the Inspire HR. If plunging in the pool is what gets your endorphins running, it shouldn’t pose as a problem with a water resistance to depths up to 50 meters.

Though it is a fitness tracker in every way, smartphone notifications such as calls, texts, and app alerts should be accessible straight from your wrist with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Notifications on the Inspire HR are limited but you should be able to configure your settings in the accompanying Fitbit App. Moreover, long-term progress tracking, goal-setting, and the ability to connect with friends and family are also possible through the app.

The

Fitbit Inspire HR

is published to have a battery life that can last up to five days but based on our hands-on review, the slick wearable averaged for three days with medium use. Nonetheless, it is a solid bet for those who want to gear up for an active lifestyle without breaking the bank. Get yours now for $20 less than usual on Amazon.

Memorial Day sales get you this 3-burner gas grill for under $100
The Expert Grill 3-Burner Propane Gas Grill can tuck extra food in the opened lid.

If you like grilling and cooking outdoors, you probably like doing so for the family experiences, great flavors, and unique atmosphere that outdoor cooking provides. You're not alone, however, if you like doing it because it provides a nice dining experience at made-at-home prices. In the spirit of this sentiment, shared by many, we've found a deal for you on a propane grill for under $100. It's a Walmart Memorial Day sale treat, which brings the Expert Grill 3-Burner from $107 to $96, saving you $11 or approximately 10%. Tap the button below to find it yourself or keep reading to see everything this grill can do and all of the neat extras it has tucked away.

Why you should buy the Expert Grill 3-Burner Propane Gas Grill
First, the grill's essentials. With extended side arms and sitting on tall legs, the Expert Grill 3-Burner's body is just under four feet tall and four feet wide, pushing back to a depth of just under two feet. Your propane tank should also fit within that area, more or less. It grills at 27,000 BTU on a main grill area of 300 square inches — enough for about 15 burgers — and has an additional 150 square inches of extra rack for warming and heat retention so stragglers to the table won't get their food burnt or too cool.

With the big shift to working from home, printers have become an important part of everyday life, even if you don't really use one regularly, and while some of the best printers from the best printer brands can be very expensive, some budget-friendly versions are not. So, if you don't do a ton of printing on a day-to-day basis, a budget printer like the HP LaserJet M209dw is the way to go, and there's even a solid Memorial Day discount on it directly from HP. While it usually goes for $149, you can grab it now for just $119, which is a nice $30 knocked off the price.

Why you should buy the HP LaserJet M209dw Printer
The HP LaserJet M209dw is a monochrome printing laser that's great for things like text documents or even character sheets for those who want to play tabletop roleplaying games. It can print at a very impressive 30 ppm, so your prints will be done relatively quickly, while the monthly recommended print volume of between 200 and 2,000 pages should be more than enough for most needs. The 600 x 600 dpi resolution isn't too bad, although it is on the lower end, which is to be expected at this price point.
