Feel like you missed out on all the best Memorial Day sales? Don’t worry. There’s still time to grab an Amazon Kindle at the lowest price it’s ever been. Right now, you can snap one up for only $60. That’s $30 off the usual price!

The Amazon Kindle is a device you’ve probably already heard a lot about. It’s the ebook reader that sparked a revolution in how we consume literature and non-fiction, with plenty of competitors trying to rival the simplicity of the Kindle. Nothing can beat it though. It’s easily the best way to read a book outside of, well, reading a book.

The all-new Kindle includes a built-in front light so you can read comfortably for hours whether you’re indoors or out, and regardless of whether it’s day, night, or something in between. Thanks to the Kindle being purpose-built for reading, it has the perfect display for the task. It’s glare-free and provides a reading experience that is just like looking at real paper, even in direct sunlight.

Besides offering an easy-to-use interface for reading, you can also highlight passages, look up definitions, translate words, and even adjust the text size, all without leaving the page you’re on. The battery life will last you weeks, too, so you won’t have to worry about constantly recharging.

As part of the Kindle ecosystem, you’ll have access to millions of books, newspapers, and audiobooks with the tablet able to hold thousands of titles at a time. It’s like carrying your own personal library with you, without the weight that comes from lugging many books around in your bag.

Amazon recommends you sign up to 3 months of Amazon Kindle Unlimited when you buy a Kindle, and we don’t blame them. It’s a fantastic service that’s risk and commitment-free right now, provided you remember to cancel before the renewal date.

Whatever you decide regarding a subscription, with an all-new Kindle priced at only $60, this is a no-brainer of a time to dive into a new way of reading. Whether you’re upgrading your aging existing Kindle or switching over to the digital era, you’re going to be happy with this purchase.

Grab it now before the price goes back up.

Dell XPS 13 and XPS 15 prices slashed for Memorial Day — from $599

Dell XPS 15 9530 front view showing display and keyboard deck.

If you're looking at Dell Memorial Day deals for a new laptop, here are a couple of offers that you should consider -- the Dell XPS 13 with a $200 discount that slashes its price to $599 from $799, and the Dell XPS 15 at $300 off, bringing its price down to $1,199 from $1,499. These are previous-generation models following the Dell XPS reset, and in the case of the Dell XPS 15, it's the last iteration of the laptop as it's been replaced by the Dell XPS 14. However, both of them are still worthwhile purchases, especially with the savings that you can pocket if you buy them for the holiday. You need to be quick though, as their prices may go back to normal at any time.
Dell XPS 13 -- $599, was $799

The previous-generation Dell XPS 13 remains in our list of the best laptops as the best budget laptop, as it's aggressively priced for a premium laptop with such a striking design. The 13.4-inch Full HD+ screen is surrounded by extremely narrow bezels, and it's got enough performance for the daily activities required by work or school with its 12th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, and 8GB of RAM. The laptop runs on Windows 11 Home out of the box, with the operating system pre-loaded in its 256GB SSD, and it has a pair of Thunderbolt 4 ports for charging and connectivity with your accessories.

This Ninja air fryer is $69 for Memorial Day, and it’s selling fast

The Ninja 4QT Air Fryer next to a plate of food.

There's often one thing that can easily take you by surprise when it comes to air fryers — the cost in your head versus the cost in reality. Air fryers ultimately seem cool, but the price can often sail North of what value we'll really be getting out of the device. That is, unless we shop great air fryer deals, like this one we found as part of our Memorial Day deal hunting. Usually a somewhat expensive $89, today you can save $20 and get the Ninja 4QT Air Fryer for a much cooler $69. Check it out by tapping the button below or keep reading for our take and all of the details.

Why you should buy the Ninja 4QT Air Fryer
The Ninja 4QT Air Fryer is a highly-beloved air fryer that (as the not-so-clever model name suggests) holds four quarts of food, or about enough for two pounds of French fries in a single batch. Due to a wide temperature range, you can go beyond air frying to also dehydrate or reheat foods, especially those that should be served crispy but lose that satisfying crunch we crave after a long night in the fridge. For example, using a low fan speed and low temperature setting you can make fresh, liquid-heavy vegetables like zucchini into a healthy crunchy snack.
