As someone who’s hooked on deal hunting, browsing Amazon’s outlet can get me into some serious trouble.
The under-the-radar outlet is one of those Amazon sections that sees minutes melt into hours as I swipe through deals that seem to keep getting better with each passing page. It’s the closest I’ve come in online shopping to getting the kind of thrill that comes with finding surprising, out-of-left-field bargains at an overstock bin store or outlet mall.
This week, I went hunting for major markdowns (i.e., at least 50 percent off) and found great stuff costing $10 or less with free shipping for Prime members. I ended up with speakers, magnetic phone mounts, throw blankets, and more treasures.

Bobtot Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker
I’m a sucker for a good little Bluetooth speaker — and this one is impressive. Normally $40, it’s a whopping 75 percent off . It charges in five hours and lasts for 25 hours when the battery is full. It’s waterproof, weighs less than 1 pound, and has a wrist strap attached, all of which mean maximum portability.
Reevaa Magnetic Phone Holder for Car Vent
This phone mount locks onto any vent in your car, giving it ideal placement to keep an eye on your GPS with a quick glance. It uses 20 tiny magnets to create a satisfying stick that’s strong enough to hold 5 pounds. Despite that strong attraction, reviewers say it’s still easy to pull your phone off when you need it.
Suraielec Remote Control Outlets 3-Pack
I wanted an electrician to install new fluorescent lights around my basement and he wrote me a quote for about $2,000. So instead I bought four linkable LED shop lights, hung them from the ceiling, and plugged them into a remote-control outlet similar to these. The whole job cost less than $70 and my basement has never been brighter.
That’s a long way of saying these little gadgets can be a game changer, especially if you use lamps and want them to turn on and off at a distance with the push of one button.
Gardening Mom Mug and Coffee Spoon
Here’s a perfectly kitschy Mother’s Day gift idea for moms with a green thumb. The mug has the look of a classic terracotta planter, and the coffee spoon is a tiny stainless steel shovel. There are a bunch of options for other loved ones that are also $8, including godmother, and grandma.
There are way too many great deals hiding in Amazon’s secret outlet to spotlight them all, but keep scrolling for six more under $10 that are worth adding to your cart.
