We hunt deals for a living, so it's no surprise that we consider Prime Day to be on par with the Super Bowl. We've spent the past few days poring over historical data, comparing prices and sharing all the best deals we can find. After all, if we wouldn't spend our own money on it, we wouldn't recommend it.
Of course, like any shopping savant worth their salt, we know that the best recommendations sometimes come from equally enthusiastic deal lovers — our readers. Luckily, Yahoo's audience has been busy shopping — and based on our internal data, there are a select few goodies you keep adding to your cart.
We crunched the numbers and put together a list of Prime Day essentials Yahoo readers have been buying in droves. Here are the tried-and-true buys that they've been scooping up since the event kicked off:
These aren't your old-school plastic storage containers. They're moisture-proof but still breathable, plus they hold more than they look. They've been cheaper before, but only by a few bucks — and either way, each bin comes in at under $3.
If your bathroom rug is flat and dull, it's time for a new one. This springy shopper favorite is up to 40% off right now on Amazon — just $9 in gray. It's so popular that more than 30,000 units have sold in the past month alone. See all 29 colors.
"We redid our entire bathroom with a bunch of these rugs and we absolutely love it," one fan wrote. "They feel great on your feet, absorb water and are super comfortable."
This innovative design gives you five outlets — two on each side and one in the middle — along with three USB-A ports and one USB-C port. It's also on par with the lowest price we've seen in years. Did we mention that it's been ordered over 10,000 times in the last month?
We don't need to tell you just how expensive sunscreen can be, which makes a deal on a high-quality SPF 70 formula even more of a rare find. Yahoo readers aren't this sunscreen's only fans, either: The tube has been bought over 100,000 (!) times in the last month, plus dermatologists give it their hard-won stamp of approval. Why? It's "been clinically tested and shown to give better sunburn protection compared to sunscreens with lower SPFs," says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, a dermatologist based in New York City.
Ah, yes, the coveted Stanley Cup. These bad boys rarely go on sale (they don't really need to), but this sought-after sipper happens to be marked down this Prime Day. It's got a built-in straw and keeps cold drinks cold for up to nine hours (40 hours if they're iced). Plus, its tapered bottom will fit right in your car's cup holder.

Active noise cancellation shuts out the world so you can immerse yourself in music, podcasts or whatever makes you happy. Adaptive Transparency mode lets you listen to your tunes but also hear any important noises from your surroundings. These are at an all-time low, so no surprise that Amazon shoppers and Yahoo readers alike can't keep 'em out of their carts.
Mornings are hectic enough — let this little machine take care of breakfast while you get ready for the day ahead. Grab it while it's 35% off (and the lowest price we've seen in months).
Enter the little green that could. Granero's a huge fan of this compact cleaner, and so are thousands of Amazon shoppers (including the 10,000 who bought one last month). This small-but-mighty sucker packs a serious punch: Spray the included Oxy solution, then suction away unwanted soil and debris from carpets, rugs and upholstery.
It's smaller, cheaper and even has a slightly wider brush attachment than the OG version. Both are on sale during Prime Day, but I'm rooting for the little guy this time around. Nab it at a record-low price, now just $70.
If your suitcase turns into a black hole by day two of your trip, packing cubes might be just the upgrade you need. And, at over 40% off, these are a great option. This set helps keep your gear sorted, visible and — maybe best of all — easy to grab without the need to rummage around. It has a variety of cube sizes, so you can keep shoes, shirts, bottoms, intimates and accessories all neatly organized in their own space.
The mesh tops keep everything ventilated and lets you see what's inside without unzipping, and the lightweight material helps prevent your bag from creeping over the weight limit.
This kit delivers on its pro-level, smile-brightening claims, reviewers say. It promises to remove up to 25 years' worth of stains from your chompers. This is the lowest price we've spotted all year — the only time it went lower in recent years was over Black Friday.
Want faster, sharper TV tech? Just say, "Alexa, upgrade my streaming experience." We're kidding — you have to click to buy. It's also 50% off, which makes it on par with the lowest price we've seen on this model all year.
It couldn't be easier to use this gizmo — just make sure your mug(s) are frozen for at least 24 hours, then mix up your ice cream base (there's a recipe book included). Once your mug is sufficiently chilled (you want it to be really cold!), you'll add your base, turn the mug on and it'll start churning away. Plus, it's the lowest price we've seen in months.

AirTags go on sale from time to time, but the four-pack has never been priced lower. And a single AirTag typically sells for $29 (right now you can snag one for just $20). This multipack deal drops the cost to under $17 per tracker! Buying in bulk really does save money, and not just when it comes to toilet paper.
Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini awarded it "best overall" for dark circles and noted it's "excellent for improving the appearance of fine lines" too. That's a lot of skin care cred for $20, and it costs far less than going to a dermatologist.
Jane Fonda says she uses this serum every night on a clean face: "It has a lot of antioxidants and good things to hydrate the skin." An A-lister's stamp of approval plus it's nearly 50% off? Say no more.
