Last week, I introduced the re-launch of WW's Cool Stuff, our new commerce section. We shared some nice product reviews, such as natural deodorant from Portland-based Schmidt's Naturals, a roundup of smartphone mounts for you car and motion-activated lights for your hallways and closets. This week, we take Cool Stuff a step further.
I'm talking deals, baby!

Every morning, I'm going to bring you a selection of sales and discounts on the finest stuff that the internet (mostly Amazon, likely) has to offer. And it isn't just going to be random niche stuff that happens to be cheap for some reason. We're going to be telling you about deals on stuff that you're probably going to want to know about. We'll be talking about electronics accessories like memory cards and chargers that basically everyone needs, super popular video games, store-wide sales on popular clothing brands, cosmetics—you get the picture.
But, we'll also mix it up with some fun stuff. We'll tell you about holiday-related bargains (Halloween, for example), and throw in some higher-end deals if we really like them. You're going to want to spring for that 4k TV eventually, right?
Without further adieu, here's our first installment of Cool Stuff deals of the day.
Up to 40% off on Sportswear from Adidas, Under Armour and others on Amazon, TODAY ONLY
If you're like me and you exercise regularly, you know that workout clothes have a limited lifespan. Through the end of the day, Amazon is offering big discounts on socks (ankle and crew), compression garments, gym bags and backpacks. They're even cutting the very same Adidas compression pants that I use down to less than $8.50. Take a look at all of the deals here.
Up to 25% off SanDisk Memory Products, TODAY ONLY
As far as I'm concerned, it's impossible to have too many memory cards and USB drives: You always lose them and you always need more. Get up to 25% off of memory products, including a very fancy looking 1TB portable solid state hard drive, from industry leader SanDisk today. And remember: USB drives are the perfect stocking stuffer. Shop all deals here.
Philips Sonicare DiamondClean 9300 smart toothbrush, $30 off with coupon
Do you think that spending $200 on a toothbrush is insane? If you've ever suffered through the torment of gum or tooth problems, your answer, like mine, is "probably not." Philips is taking $30 off their Sonicare DiamondClean 9300, their top of the line smart toothbrush, which is so mind-mindbogglingly advanced that I didn't even know this teeth cleaning technology even existed. The DiamondClean 9300 uses app integration and sensors on the brush to map your mouth, not only tracking where and how you brush, but problems including oral bleeding and gum recession. Sending all of your brushing information to your smartphone, it will even tell you if you're using too much pressure while you brush. And take it from me—someone who has had three gum surgeries because I brushed me teeth too hard for years—you want to know if you're using the right pressure.
It also comes with some James Bond stuff that makes it, dare I say, a cool toothbrush, including a special rinse glass that looks like a whisky tumbler (fancy!), a travel case, and a sleek, black matte exterior. The DiamondClean 9300 is as good as it gets, and an excellent gift for your dad whose lifetime of oral neglect has reduced his mouth into a stink pit of blood and agony. Buy here, $30 off coupon applies at checkout.
