March is historically a dry spell for deals; however, with Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale, which runs through 11:59PM PT tonight, the retail behemoth is hoping to lure in would-be shoppers with the promise of steep(ish) savings and discounts on more seasonal, spring-centric items to hold folks over until Prime Day surfaces at the onset of summer. And if you’re curious what else is on sale, our larger roundup for the best deals from Amazon’s Big Spring Sale has you covered with discounts on earbuds, smart lighting, and plenty of other Verge -approved tech.
