We only have a few hours left before Amazon wraps up Prime Day. This 48-hour sale has proven to be the hottest shopping event this month but the discounts are still coming. If you are looking to get the best inflatable kayak for your next trip outdoors, now is the time. The

Intex Challenger K1 Kayak is available on Amazon at just $42

but only for a limited time. We’ve also curated a bunch of other great Prime Day deals on camping and outdoors.

The usually $64 Intex Challenger K1 is already discounted. But it gets a bigger price cut as Deal of the Day. You can save a total of $22 on this one-person inflatable kayak if you order before the time expires. The

complete set,

which includes the Challenger K1, an 84-inch aluminum oar, and a high-output manual hand pump, can also be bought on Amazon for $150.

Our beautiful country has many serene lakes and slow-moving rivers one can explore with a small watercraft. If you are planning to go on a solo backpacking trip somewhere with calm waters, the Intex Challenger K1 Kayak is a great addition to your gear. This kayak comfortably sits one adult weighing up to 220 pounds.

The Challenger K1 is made of heavy-duty, puncture-resistant vinyl. It is designed with two separate air chambers for stability and an inflatable I-beam floor for rigidity. And for your further peace of mind, the Challenger K1 is certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) using American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) standards.

Once the kayak is inflated, it is easy to get cozy in the cockpit of this one-person kayak. Its seat even comes with a backrest and can be adjusted to your preference. But before you set out on your ride, be sure to attach the removable skeg and secure all your necessary gear in the kayak’s cargo net storage.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is still at its Prime Day price

Apps page on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6.

It's been a couple of weeks since the Samsung Galaxy deals of Prime Day ended, but don't tell that to Amazon, which is still selling the 40mm Bluetooth version of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 for only $200. That's how much it was going for during the shopping event, so we're not sure if this $100 discount on the wearable device's original price of $300 is a generous offer or simply a mistake. Either way, you probably have limited time to take advantage of this bargain, so if you're interested, complete your purchase for the smartwatch right now.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6
The arrival of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 doesn't make the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 obsolete -- in fact, it even makes the previous-generation version a better purchase if you can get it with a discount. Our Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 versus Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 comparison reveals that outside of the upgraded processor and a few new health features, there's no huge reason to go for the latest version of the smartwatch.

For great Amazon Echo deals, check out what Best Buy has to offer. It might not be Prime Day any more, but you can still snag some great bargains on Amazon Echo speakers. That includes the Echo Dot as well as the Echo Show 5, so there is something for everyone here. Read up on which Amazon Echo you should buy, then take a look at what we can tell you about each. In both cases, assume the discounts are strictly limited and will end very soon.
Amazon Echo Dot (5th gen) -- $25, was $50

The Amazon Echo Dot (5th gen) is one of the best Amazon Alexa smart speakers around thanks to it being so small that you can fit it pretty much anywhere in your home. It’s pretty cute, but it still offers deeper bass than you would expect for the size, along with clear vocals. At all times, you can speak to Alexa to get news updates, info on the weather, or simply to get her to play a game or play some music for you. It also means you can control your smart home devices with your voice. It’s surprisingly powerful and a great entry point to making your home smarter with minimal effort.

The Amazon Fire 8 tablet is cheaper than it was on Prime Day

Normally we see the best Amazon Fire tablet deals at Amazon, but for a change, the cheapest price for an Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet is at Best Buy. It usually costs $100, but Best Buy is currently selling it for $50. Crucially, in the past, Amazon has only ever dropped the price to $55, and that was way back during Black Friday 2022, so this is the best price we’ve seen in a long time. If you’re looking for a super cheap tablet, you’ll love this one. Here’s what else we have to say about one of the best tablet deals before you commit to a purchase.

Why you should buy the Amazon Fire HD 8
You won’t see the Amazon Fire HD 8 in our look at the best tablets because that’s how budget-friendly it is. Think of it as a tablet to hand to the kids to keep them entertained during long trips or for those times when you just need a little more screen space than using your phone.
