They are also great for those late night trips to the bathroom when my kids would be scared to walk in the dark. They can simply ask for the light to be turned on. These are absolutely great and so glad we got them.”

The scale will only tell you pounds but it will connect to the app if your phone is near to give you the other data.”

Save $10: TaoTronics Bluetooth 5.0 Mini Sound Bar
On sale for $30 (was $40), this TaoTronics Bluetooth Mini Sound Bar features premium audio for an immersive feel, and dual five-watt drivers for detailed audio with booming bass. Translation: It’ll make your laptop, desktop, tablet, gaming console or phone sound extremely richer, more robust and more detailed. It also works with some TVs via Aux and RCA ports, but otherwise it connects wirelessly with Bluetooth 5.0.
“I bought this speaker just to use for computer audio and for video calls, as the speakers on my laptop are terrible,” shares another five-star reviewer. “It sounds great for that purpose—very clear and rich sound. What I was surprised with, is that music actually sounds pretty good on it, too!”
Save $6: Tozo T10 Wireless Earbuds
So what makes these earbuds special? Well, these Tozo T10 Wireless Earbuds feature big audio in such a small package.

Meanwhile, these earbuds have a long 18-hour battery life (four hours from the earbuds when fully charged and and an additional 14 hours from their charging case).
“I was immediately impressed with the sound quality as it was better than the wired earphones that came with my Samsung Galaxy S9. With my previous earphones, I would have a hard time hearing the majority of audio even at maximum volume,” shares a delighted shopper. “However, now using these, I rarely find myself putting the volume above the standard warning you receive when placing the volume too high.”
Oh yeah, these wireless earbuds are on sale for $29, or $6 off at Amazon.
Save $2: Lightimetunnel Sleep Eye Mask Headphones
These Lightimetunnel Sleep Eye Mask Headphones are one-half eye mask and one-half wireless headphones. Put them together and you’ll have a relaxing night (or day) of rest. Made from a soft, velvety accessory that caters to multiple senses. It blocks out light, feels soothing on the skin and has built-in speakers that connect wirelessly to your phone or tablet via Bluetooth. You can listen to bedtime tunes, your get-pumped-for-that-meeting playlist or that inspirational podcast in the deep darkness of utter calm.
“This is a great idea! I’m used to going to bed listening to music but having my phone under the pillow was an unsafe thing to do,” shares a rested Amazon shopper. “I’m glad I found this product because it doesn’t only play music, it also gives me a complete blackout so I can fall asleep even if there’s light (like when I get to nap during the day). I think this product is very well made, super soft and plushy, quite comfortable and if I leave it a little loose I can actually sleep on my side.”
