We Asked People For Their Prime Day Wish Lists — Looks Like These Wishes Will Come True

Lucky for our colleagues, they can find a KitchenAid mixer and new luggage at a major discount.

We Asked People For Their Prime Day Wish Lists — Looks Like These Wishes Will Come True
Supergoop Play everyday sunscreen lotion, a towel warmer, the Shark Vertex Pro cordless stick vacuum and a Urevo walking pad.

It’s one thing to ask shopping editors the things they want when a savings event as big as Amazon Prime Day comes along. While it’s true that tracking sales and staying abreast of the newest and most coveted goods on a daily basis make us pretty good at shopping, we decided that we needed some fresh shopping inspiration from our colleagues — and it’s safe to say that they gave us some pretty great material.

You, too, may very well get some shopping inspiration from these upcoming products that either members of our newsroom already own and love, or have been waiting anxiously to buy on sale.

Find a smart fragrance diffuser that multiple folks endorse, a Vitamix FoodCycler that makes composting food scraps a no-odor breeze and a heavy-duty paper shredder because it’s 2024 and you shouldn’t be laissez-faire with your sensitive information.

This upgrade version has a new detachable head for travel and storage, more heat settings and is the proud purchase of editor Jillian Capewell, who said she had been "waffling about getting for approximately two years."
