How is this legal in 48 out of 50 states? You can purchase one of these robo-dogs for just under $10,000. It’s a pass for me.

Sucker-upper

Can you still call it “spring cleaning” if it’s June? These deals on vacuums, mops and scrubbers are way too good to pass up.

  • If you’ve been waiting for a sign, it’s time to pull the trigger on a Dyson. This Dyson V8 Extra Cordless vac is $120 off!

Protect your skin

Sunscreen is so important — and not just here in Phoenix. Here are some handy accessories to make applying it way easier:

  • If you have kids or grandkids, get one of these applicators. Squeeze in your favorite sunscreen and then you (or the kiddo) can rub it on, easy-peasy. I’m getting myself one …
  • No one around to get your back? Do it yourself with this applicator that gets all the spots you can’t reach.

You’re the best, by par

June 16 is coming up fast! If the dad in your life is a golfer, I found fore great deals for him (OK, actually five).

  • A tool for sharpening the grooves in his wedges and irons (25% off, $5.99), in case that’s what’s been keeping him from greatness.
  • A little putting set for the bathroom (28% off, $17.99) is good for a laugh, and I bet he’ll use it, too.
  • A golf ball picker-upper ($6.99) that affixes to the top of his putter. After he sinks the putt, he just has to flip his club to pick up the ball. Back saver. 
  • An ice mold ($8.99) that makes golf-ball-shaped ice for his post-round par-ty. 
  • A phone holder ($14.97) that attaches to his golf cart or bag so he can record his game. The real present is acting interested when he shows you the footage.

  • This universal socket adapter for his drill has nearly 20,000 five-star reviews, and it’s 10% off ($8.99).

  • A multitool ($11.99) that’s a screwdriver, hex wrench, cord cutter, ruler, box opener, bottle opener and a keychain. Phew!

Sometimes, a guy just needs a very good utility knife (50% off, $12.98).
