The Prime Day deals have been active for almost two whole days now. That means you only have a few hours to take advantage of steep discounts on the newest tech, like these Prime Day Kindle deals. One Prime Day deal that’s caught our eye is the giant break in price on an 8GB Kindle Paperweight; right now, you can save $50, only for Prime Day. The new Kindle Paperwhite has twice the storage of the old version, and it’s waterproof too. All this can be yours for only $80, down from its regular price of $130. Don’t let it get away!

The new Kindle Paperwhite might be the ultimate e-reader — see how it measures up in our comparison of the Amazon Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite. For those tired of carrying around heavy paper books, this is the lightest and thinnest Kindle available. It has a tight design, and its display is 300 pixels per inch and free from glare. You can take this thing anywhere, and the battery life is incredible. With this e-reader, you can immerse yourself in a book (or books) with weeks of battery life from a single charge. And it works everywhere; the built-in adjustable light means that you can enjoy your favorite books while reading outside in a hammock or in bed at night without straining your eyes or worrying about bothering your partner.

Let’s talk capacity, because a Kindle Paperwhite’s usefulness is directly related to how many books you can store on this little device. Given that one e-book tends to take up approximately 1MB of space and that this version of the Kindle Paperwhite has 32GB of storage space, you’re looking at the capacity to carry up to 32,000 books with you at any one time. This makes the Kindle Paperwhite an ideal gift for graduation and an absolute necessity for summer reading. You can bring hundreds of options with you to the beach — and given that it’s waterproof, you’ll never have to worry about the Kindle Paperwhite being damaged by a damp towel or a splash from freshly emerged swimmers.

Another great feature: This Kindle Paperwhite supports Audible, meaning that you’ll have access to the very best in audiobooks, podcasts, exclusives, and more. You’ll get instant access to new releases and more than a million titles for just $3 or less, and you can also connect your earphones with Bluetooth and listen to audiobooks and more on the go or at home. Not only has Amazon made the Kindle Paperwhite super thin and portable, but it also gives you options on colors. There’s classic black but also twilight blue, sage, and plum to choose from. They look amazing.

Only on Prime Day, get the new Kindle Paperwhite for $80. You can have access to over a million titles, as well as audiobooks and more, with the Kindle Paperwhite, which is $50 off for Prime Day, a steep drop from its original price of $130. Act now — this deal won’t be around for long.

If you picked up a Cyber Monday TV deal, you might need to shop for a Cyber Monday cordless drill deal to get it properly mounted yourself. DeWalt, which not only makes great tools but also has some CamelCamelCamel-verified Cyber Monday deals, makes more than just the drill. The following deals represent the best Cyber Monday power tool deals you can get from DeWalt, plus some extra equally well-made DeWalt goods. It might also be worth checking out our general Cyber Monday deals roundup for any other deals that might interest you.
Our top pick: DeWalt 20V Max Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Kit — $299 $409 27% off

This is the bread and butter of DeWalt Black Friday deals right now, as it has not only the most essential tools of any kit — the drill and driver — but also a pair of batteries and a charger to keep them ready to go and a nice duffel as well. Get this kit for $299 to get started with DeWalt's 20V products in the best way possible. I personally own this kit, and I use it weekly, if not most days. I'm always hanging something up on the wall, fixing something that's broken around the house or just building some new contraption. The small drill is excellent for quick tasks, while the hammer drill is great for drilling into tough materials.

I used CamelCamelCamel to check if these are the best deal prices for Black Friday (they are)
CamelCamelCamel in the desert giving you a smug unsatisfied look.

You may or may not know this, but certain online retailers and various small brands will actually increase prices before a huge sale, like early Black Friday sales, actual Black Friday, or even Cyber Monday and Cyber Week. Let's say, for example, they discount the product by $20. Weeks before, they might raise the price by $30 to make the discount look bigger. So, the reality is you're not actually getting a great deal -- they trick you. There is a way to combat this and find the best early Black Friday deals and beyond. There's a tool I use called CamelCamelCamel, which works wonders to help you find the real deals and steals. Well, anyway, I used the tool to find the best deal prices for Black Friday, and the holiday discounts. Let's take a closer look at some of those deals. Spoiler: They're so, so good.
