We are down to the final hours of Prime Day, as Amazon extends its July sales event from two days to four days of deals this year. While our commerce editors are busy finding the best tech, toys, and gaming deals still live today, like the Apple AirPods Pro for $149 and plenty of LEGO deals, I’m here to keep you entertained with the weirdest items on the market. I’m not here to yuck anyone’s yum, so don’t get it twisted. Instead, I’ve compiled 20 of the most random (but still cool, useful or interesting) items I could find for Prime Day right now. The majority of the items below have 4+ star ratings, so yes, people are actually buying and seemingly enjoying these things!
20 Weird but Cool Prime Day Deals
1. (New) Warheads Soda
2. “Ugly” iPhone Case

19. TastySounds Audio Lollipop
20. The Paris Hilton Mini Fridge
I included this one since it seemed quite random to have Paris Hilton’s name attached to a fridge. However, it made slightly more sense once I started reading about its multipurpose functionality for not just food and drink, but for makeup.
Two Honorable Mentions From Amazon Haul:
More Honorable Mentions for Extra Weird Sodas
As several of the above items are at least loosely food-related and since I spotted the Warheads soda, I’d be remissed to not include these other bizarre sodas I found on this Amazon journey. Note that the following drinks are not on sale, but fairly affordable and absolutely intriguing nonetheless:
Grass Soda
Enchilada Soda
Bacon Soda
Mustard Soda

In addition to the AirPods Pro deal mentioned, some of the most popular deals we’ve found in gaming and tech include the PlayStation Portal (Used) $124.12, the PS5 DualSense Edge Controller (Used) for $142.61, the Meta Quest 3S 128GB VR Headset for $249.99, the Apple Watch Series 10 for $279.99 and the newest iPad for $279.99.
As a reminder, Prime Day lasts through tonight, July 11 at 11:59pm PT, so there’s still time to shop and add things to your cart while these discounts last. I finally hit the checkout button myself today, and took advantage of discounts on practical things I need like moisturizer, a garlic press, socks, and peanut butter in bulk (for me and for my dog), so my cart was pretty full. You just never know what you may find.
