Earbuds are a problem for me. I like quality audio, but I tend to lose small things. That's why I love JBL Vibe Beam earbuds; they're the perfect middle-ground. They might not be as crisp and bass-y as AirPods, but they sound alright, and for Prime Day, JBL Vibe Beams are on sale for $34.95, down from $49.95. That's inexpensive enough that I'm not going to be all broken up if I leave 'em at the beach (like I did with my AirPods.)

Vibe Beams feature 8mm drivers that deliver "JBL Deep Bass Sound," and the batteries last up to 32 hours if you include charging from the case. Plus, they're comfortable, ergonomic, and designed to block out external sound. In other words: These are quality earbuds that are inexpensive enough to be semi-disposable.

Looking for something else? Retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Home Depot have Prime Day competition sales that are especially useful if you don’t have Amazon Prime.

• Walmart’s Prime Day competition sale begins at midnight on July 8 and will include deals up to 50% off. It’s an especially good option if you have Walmart+. 

• Best Buy’s Prime Day competition sale, “Black Friday in July,” runs through Sunday, July 13 and has some of the best tech sales online. It’s an especially good option if you’re a My Best Buy “Plus” or “Total” member.

Home Depot extended its 4th of July sale through at least July 9, competing with some amazing deals of its own. It’s an especially good option if you’re looking for power tools, appliances, or outdoor equipment.
