This week started off with Amazon’s Big Smile Sale, with a swathe of discounts across its massive inventory — you can follow our live coverage here where we have 100+ offers already listed. Now a few more retailers have joined in the fun for Afterpay Day, which officially kicked off yesterday morning.

After a busy morning scouring for deals, I stumbled upon some of our best blenders, best stick vacuums, best coffee machines, best air fryers and even one from our best video doorbells. These recommendations come from our resident experts who have thoroughly tested and reviewed these appliances, so know that you’ll be getting your hands on some quality tech for less.

So, without much ado, let’s jump into the bargain hunting, shall we?
