Flashforge Adventurer 3D Printer Drops to the Lowest Price Ever
If you’re interested in dipping your toes in the world of 3D printing then you can’t go wrong with Flashforge’s entry level model – the Adventure 5M – as your first 3D printer to start. As part of the AliExpress Back to School Sale, you can get it for the lowest price I’ve ever seen. Its currently available for just at AliExpress for just $132.05 with free shipping after you apply $32 off coupon code “JJX32B” or “USDEAL032“. The same printer sells for $227 on Amazon. You’re buying it from FlashForge’s official store on AliExpress. It ships free locally from the United States and arrives within 1 to 2 weeks.
Over $17 Off Tomodachi Life
One of the most popular Switch games at the moment, Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is down to just 42.39 on Amazon-owned Woot with the code “GAMER20”. It’s an international version but will function normally. This simulation game lets you create custom Mii characters that populate an island while you help solve their problems as they unfold. In IGN’s Tomodachi Life review, Logan Plant described it as “a deeply funny and equally personal civilization simulator.”

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for Switch 2 for $35
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for Switch 2 is down to just $35 at Best Buy and Amazon. The Day One Edition also comes with a Magic: The Gathering Zack Fair promo card. However, shipping is delayed on Amazon, so I’d recommend grabbing it from Best Buy to get it soon. As for the game itself, this remake of the classic action RPG earned an “Amazing” 9/10 rating in IGN’s review. Michael Higham went on to say the game is “full of exciting challenges and an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long.”
Pokémon TCG Pitch Black ETB Below Market Value
Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Pitch Black ETB is available shipped and sold by Amazon for 69.95. Now, that’s actually below the current market value according to TCGPlayer. Included in the ETB are 9 booster packs, 1 full-art foil promo card featuring Zarude, 65 card sleeves, 6 damage-counter dice, and more. You can also pick up the Pitch Black Booster Bundle for $49.95, but it’s not nearly as good a deal.
