Amazon Prime Day is a great excuse/opportunity to splurge on the big-ticket buys you’ve been eyeing. But if you ask me, it’s even better to stock up on the things you need and call it a deal … I mean day. I fall more into the latter category — and that’s why I’ve searched high and low to find the best Prime Day markdowns on cleaning products, household staples, hygiene basics and other everyday essentials.
Toilet paper and batteries aren’t as exciting as, say, the new AirPods Pro (which are also on sale right now!), but I maintain that there’s something even more rewarding about saving on the stuff you’d buy anyway. That being said, let’s get one thing straight: These Prime Day deals aren’t exactly doorbusters, but I compared these prices to other big-box retailers’ and Amazon’s reign supreme.
Highlights include a four-pack of Dawn dish spray for just $12 (that’s $3 a bottle) and 48 batteries for a mere $14. That’s not to mention Banana Boat sunscreen for nearly half off (’tis the season!) or Clorox wipes at the lowest price we’ve seen in months.

If you’re going to hop aboard the weekly or biweekly sponge-replacement train, then go for this 24-pack that’ll last you about six months. Each sponge comes to just 40 cents, which is considerably less than the name brands (you know the ones).

Sure, there’s that hot, hip, eye-catching thing that everyone’s buying, coveting, flexing on. But getting all fancy and aspirational won’t do you any good if you can’t launder your clothes or clean your house. (Amazon)
