10 Best Places to Buy Jeans Online in 2024
Levi’s Wedgie Straight Jeans, $48 (Save 40%)
people
Buy on Amazon $80 $48
A pair of straight-leg jeans is an essential part of any wardrobe, and we especially like the cropped cut of these Levi’s for spring. We had three testers (including two editors) try these jeans on for two weeks, and they found the design comfortable and flattering. The denim is made from a cotton/elastane blend, so there’s a bit of stretch — and while it felt stiffer at first, it conformed to our testers’ bodies the longer they wore it.
Black+Decker AdvancedClean+ Cordless Handheld Pet Vacuum $90 (Save 10%)

Buy on Amazon $100 $90
When it’s time for spring cleaning, you might prefer an easier handheld option than pulling out a bulky upright vacuum for quick fixes. Instead, reach for this Black+Decker vacuum, which we’ve thoroughly compared to the other best handheld vacuums on the market.
Our team loved the look and functionality of this vacuum, which easily removed dirt from hardwoods and carpets. Even on the lowest setting, the vacuum cleaner vacuumed up all the pet hair from the medium pile carpet. It was also easy to clean after use, and given its large dustbin, it can take several cleaning sessions before it’s empty.
Travelpro Maxlite 5 Lightweight Under Seat Carry-On, $85 (Save 15%)

Buy on Amazon $100 $85
If you’re planning a weekend to take advantage of the sunny days ahead, we recommend the Travelpro underseat carry-on. Its compact size is ideal for road and plane travel — you’ll never be forced to check your carry-on again because it fits right under the seat (on a standard-sized plane). When we compared the best underseat luggage, this lightweight option stood out with its spacious capacity, dual carrying options and organizational compartments.
Tempt Me Vintage Two Piece Swimsuit, $30 (Save 17%)
people
Buy on Amazon $36 $30
This vintage-inspired two-piece swimsuit stands out thanks to its high-waisted bottom and pleats that provide ample coverage, while keeping the overall silhouette playful. Sizes range from XXS to 20 Plus, with more than 40 colors and patterns, including polka dots and tropical flowers. When we compared the best swimsuits for women, this option was voted the best for curvy bodies because it holds its shape and has a little more structure than the others we tested.
Ryka Devotion Plus 3 Walking Shoe, Starting at $50 (Save 50%)
Amazon
Buy on Amazon $100 $50
You may find yourself outside more as the temperatures warm, so a pair of walking shoes is a good addition to your basket. The Ryka Devotion Plus 3 matched up well with the other walking shoes we tested. They feel light with every step, and the width is especially ideal for those with bunions or arthritis — to allow more space for the foot when walking. The shoe isn’t super padded, but it’s comfortable, according to our testers.
Dweebzilla Slim Gold Medallion Luxury Sunglasses, $11 (Save 8%)
People / Erika Reals
Buy on Amazon $12 $11
You may have seen similar shades on celebrities, but this pair won’t cost you more than two coffees. One of our editors owns this pair, and in our review of the best sunglasses for women, she said she was surprised by the quality for the low price. They are durable enough for everyday wear and have a certain weight so they won’t break easily.
Read on to find your new favorite pair of sandals or a washable seasonal rug to redecorate this spring, along with other deals on tested favorites during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale.
