As an avid runner, I understand the appeal of tracking fitness metrics. That said, in recent weeks, I’ve also grown annoyed with the onslaught of notifications I receive on my wrist via my Apple Watch Series 7, which I find to be incredibly distracting. Thankfully, if you’re like me, Garmin’s back-to-basics Lily 2 is on sale at Amazon and direct from Garmin right now for $199.99 ($50 off), its lowest price to date.
Whether it aims to be or not, Garmin’s fashion-forward smartwatch is a throwback to the heyday of Fitbits, Misfits, and Jawbones — you know, basic fitness bands. Its compact, 35mm sizing probably means it’s best suited for women, though, we’d venture to guess it should work for anyone with smaller wrists who wants a touch of style to their wardrobe. It can track all your basic fitness activities (including your sleeping habits), too, and works with both Android and iOS, allowing you to receive text and call notifications. Admittedly, the hidden OLED display on the Lily 2 is a bit difficult to navigate and the watch eschews premium features like built-in GPS, but if you prefer to keep things simple, it’s a great little tracker for casual users that can easily cut back on notification fatigue.

- Memorial Day weekend is nearly upon us. We’ll be publishing a larger roundup detailing the best holiday savings tomorrow, but if you’re looking to get ahead, Coleman’s Cascade 222 Camping Stove is available from REI, Backcountry, and Colman starting at $126.99 ($43 off). The solid two-burner stove is a slight step up from Coleman’s most basic model, providing you with a bit more cooking precision, a built-in carrying handle, and a handy piezo ignition for getting things started.
- Sony’s ULT Field 7 is down to $398 ($102 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Sony’s online storefront. Like other Bluetooth speakers in the ULT Power Sound series, the mid-tier Field 7 is all about immersing you in lively, bass-heavy sound. Most of the specs on the beefy 20-inch speaker are pretty table-stakes for its class — including its IP67 rating, integrated lighting, and 30-hour runtime — but it also packs a seven-band EQ and an ULT button that lets you toggle between different bass modes, letting you fine-tune its sound on the fly.
