Barring one last “take that!” winter storm, we’re gonna go ahead and say that winter’s winding down. In fact, we’re less than two weeks from the vernal equinox (i.e., the planetary beginning of spring), so we’re very much in looking-forward mode. And, it turns out, so is Amazon: Not only is the retailer unveiling a soup-to-nuts smorgasbord of deals in the first-ever Amazon Big Spring Sale, slated March 20-25, it’s giving us all a big, delicious taste this weekend. (Psst: These savings aren’t just for Prime members either!)
Speaking of delicious: How’d you’d like to smarten up your breakfast routine with a state-of-the-art toaster for 75% off? Perhaps a booming Bluetooth speaker to keep you entertained while you get this year’s backyard crop planted — also 75% off! Maybe you’re more concerned with sprucing up your interior space. Well, this stick vac will suck up all the schmutz, and it’s marked down by $490. And that’s just for starters during this Amazon March sale.
Wanna get schooled on other spring deals you can expect? Here is everything you need to know about Amazon’s Spring Sale.
