Not many people know this, but this past weekend marked an important historical anniversary. On June 28, after having John Adams and Benjamin Franklin put in their two cents (or was it still pence back then?), Thomas Jefferson submitted his final draft of the Declaration of Independence to the Continental Congress. That’s right, a full week before what we know as Independence Day. We declare the parallel significance of this act to be self-evident, as this week’s best Amazon deals are also Amazon’s early July 4th sales.
Sometimes, in the course of human events, a new hand vacuum is in order; luckily, this heavy-duty Craftsman is a record-low $59 (down from $100). Did last week’s “heat dome” catch you unprepared? “One if by air, two if by water” are the bywords for this indoor/outdoor Shark misting fan. Liberate yourself from seasonal swelter while saving a very cool 50 bucks (also an all-time low). Summertime means your face needs extra-special care. Alas, not all eye creams are created equal, so make sure you score a tube of this line-minimizing option from ROC — it’s nearly 35% off (and comes recommended by our beauty editor).
Seriously, it’s your right, your duty, to throw off the despotism of too-high prices, and waiting till the 4th to do it? Well, that’s just … revolting.
