'Videos load so fast': An Apple iPad for $300, and other eye-popping deals today

If you've been hankering for a new Apple iPad, now's the time to bite. This 10th-generation model is at its lowest price ever with the on-page coupon: just $300. The full, vibrant 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display and powerful A14 Bionic chip make it great for streaming Netflix, conducting video calls and gaming. Plus it has a cool fingerprint lock and an extra-wide front camera. The $300 price tag is for this 64GB model, but if you suspect you'll need extra storage space, upgrade to the 256GB (on sale for $450). 

One of the 11,600-plus five-star fans raved about the "exceptional performance and stunning display," and said: "From the moment you power it on, you can feel the power of the A14 Bionic chip, ensuring smooth multitasking and quick app launches. The 10.9-inch Liquid Retina Display is another standout feature. The colors are vibrant, the text is sharp, and the overall visual experience is immersive."

"It's portable, smooth and easy to use," added another. "I am able to get more done than I would on my laptop. ... Hands-down, the best Mother’s Day gift I bought myself. ... My videos are loading so fast."

Another fan, who replaced their outdated, "pretty much useless" tech, said, "This iPad solved all my problems and does everything I need plus so much more. I love everything about it, especially the Magnifier because I'm 72 with typical age-related vision problems, so it’s great for reading tiny fine print on products, etc. Great camera, great battery life, pretty fast charging. Highly recommended if like me you need a device that is in between a laptop or desktop and your phone."

I do recommend you order a ceiling mount when you purchase it."

This "absolutely thrilled" fan listed six major pluses to this brush. Here's one: "Whitening power: The 40,000 vibrations per minute electric motor is like a mini dental spa in my bathroom. My teeth have never felt cleaner! The ultra-fine bristles gently polish away stains, leaving my smile noticeably brighter."

Want to put a stop to cable bills? Fire TVs are where it's at. We've found a popular 50-inch model for just $320 (down from $450). Better yet, Prime members can get it for $280 with code PRIME50.

"Excellent TV with awesome features," wrote a fan. "The picture quality is fantastic — colors are vibrant, and the details are super sharp. It makes watching movies and shows so much more enjoyable. The sound is surprisingly good too, filling the room nicely without needing extra speakers. What really stands out is the built-in Fire TV interface. It's really user-friendly and makes it easy to switch between my favorite streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video and Hulu. Plus, having Alexa built-in is a huge bonus."

Nicole Kidman is widely recognized for two things — her talent and her enviable locks. And she has a tip to help you attain one of those things: Right now Kidman's favorite hair growth serum is nearly 55% off! The plant-based formula begins at the roots, soothing the scalp. The goal: To increase the appearance of hair density and reduce signs of shedding, promoting a thicker, fuller-looking mane. Over 2,100 five-star Amazon reviewers are thrilled with the results.

"It actually works!" wrote one satisfied shopper. "I have fine hair and struggle with volume, especially on the crown of my head. I was encouraged to try this product but assumed it wouldn't make a difference. I was shocked that I could tell a difference as soon as I used it ... I am hooked indeed — simple to use and no scent, which makes it that much better!"

"Stopped my shedding immediately," said another fan. "I am in full menopause, and my hair is all over the house. ... Now I barely see hair falling."

Flash a whiter, brighter smile with a little help from these "magic" wands. The No. 1 bestselling whitening gel pens gently lift away coffee, wine, tea stains and the like without irritation. Simply brush and dry teeth, apply gel directly tooth by tooth, allow them to dry for 20 seconds and avoid eating and drinking for 30 minutes. These are travel-friendly and good for approximately 30 uses. 

"Shockingly effective," wrote one smiling shopper. "My teeth were embarrassingly dingy. A kind of mixture of yellow and gray with a hint of brown. Years of smoking and drinking/eating coffee products left them pretty terrible. I tried ... whitening toothpaste, mouthwash, charcoal, hydrogen peroxide, nothing worked, and the last time I tried a whitening tray it made my teeth hurt so bad I wanted to cry. ... By the third use of this, the brownish color was gone. ... Now on the eighth use ... the front of my teeth are like 5-6 shades whiter than the back of them, where I can't apply the gel. Fortunately, nobody will see back there."

"Amazing confidence booster!" wrote another fan who used this right before a job interview. "I love this! It's very easy to use and works quickly!"

Now's the time to stock up on summer wardrobe essentials. We've spied some easy-going French terry Bermudas that we wish we were wearing right about now on sale for just $13. These babies are lightweight for summer, and the legs offer full thigh coverage and end with a tidy fold at the bottom. They've got 16,700-plus rave reviews to back them up.

"My favorite shorts," wrote one convert. "[I'll] be wearing these every day during the summer. They're so comfortable and pretty light even on these 90°-plus days. I even wore them on a summer trip to Disney and was still comfortable with all the walking in the heat. I love finding shorts that go down to my knees that don’t also stick to every skin cell that exists on my thighs."

"Fits great, comfortable and I love the pockets," wrote a happy wearer. "Perfect for playing pickleball and working out."
