Sphero BB-8 + Force Band, $140

Sphero’s BB-8 RC droid remains one of the coolest toys ever made, and now that its Force Band can also control your home through IFTTT, it’s even more enticing. Say it out loud: “I am with the Force the Force is with me.”

Today only, Amazon will sell you the BB-8 and the band together for $140, an all-time low. The band alone usually costs $80, so adding the adorable rolling droid for $60 is the deal you’re looking for.

Harry Potter, the complete eight-film Blu-ray, $40

Now that Harry Potter is culturally relevant again, it may be a good time to pick up the eight-film Blu-ray set for $40. That’s $5 more than Black Friday, but still far less than what Amazon usually charges. Accio discount!

Eneloop Power Pack, $28

Whether you’re starting or expanding your collection, Amazon’s running a great deal today on your favorite rechargeable batteries.

$28 gets you the newer Eneloop Power Pack, which comes with a charger, 10 AAs, and four AAAs. That’s two more of each type than the old Power Pack (still available for $33), though you won’t get any C or D spacers, which is a bummer. Still, that should be enough batteries to keep most of your electronics humming along, and $28 is the best price Amazon’s ever listed.

Insta-Bed queen air mattress with Never-Flat Pump, $88

Casper might be the best mattress for everyone, but not for your houseguests. Put them on this discounted Insta-Bed air mattress, marked down to an all-time low $88, today only.

That’s more expensive than a lot of air mattresses, but this one includes a built-in pump which silently trickles more air into the mattress overnight, meaning it’ll still be fully inflated come morning. If that’s not a miracle, I don’t know what is.

GoPro HERO+ LCD, $150

GoPro’s HERO+ LCD strikes a great balance between the entry-level HERO and the tricked-out HERO5, and at $150, it’s one of the best GoPro bargains we’ve seen.

That gets you smooth 1080/60 recording (no 4K, sorry), 8 MP stills, wi-fi, Bluetooth, waterproof housing, and yes, an LCD display to help you line up your shots and change settings. Today’s price is the best we’ve ever seen on this model, but it’s only available today.

Marpac Dohm-DS white noise machine, $35 | Marpac Rohm portable white noise machine, $24

If excessive noise (or utter silence) makes it difficult for you to doze off, this popular white noise machine might be the key to a better night’s sleep. Marpac’s Dohm-DS boasts a 4.4 star average on over 10,000 reviews, and Amazon’s offering the white model for $35 today as part of a Gold Box deal. I wouldn’t sleep on it, as this price is unlikely to last long.

Marpac’s USB-rechargeable portable model, hilariously named the Rohm, is also on sale for an all-time low $24 as part of the same deal, if you can’t leave home without your white noise.
