Looking for a (cheap) tipple?
Jack Daniel’s old no.7 Tennessee whiskey legacy edition 70cl: Was £36.95, now £21.99, Amazon.co.uk
Get a healthy 40 per cent off the legacy edition of Jack Daniel’s old no.7 Tennessee whiskey this Prime Day. Contrary to its usual black and white aesthetic, this version comes with an olive green and gold trim label to make it feel extra special.
We featured the regular edition in our best American whiskey roundup where our reviewer said that “The brand has ventured into new flavour territories, including honey and apple editions, but for maximum rock star credit it has to be the original no.7 and its mellow brown sugar, chocolate orange and charred spice flavours.” Nothing beats a classic, except for a classic with 40 per cent off. What are you waiting for?
Aviation American gin, 70cl: Was £35.95, now £21.99, Amazon.co.uk
Calling all gin lovers: right now, you can save nearly 40 per cent on actor Ryan Reynold’s bestselling brand. Rather than being dominated by juniper like most gins, this Portland-based spirit boasts a balance of delicate and punchy flavours.
Chosen as one of our favourite celebrity alcohol brands, our (lucky) taster said, “The exceptionally smooth and complex small-batch gin is made with seven main botanicals, vaunting prominent aromas of sarsaparilla, sweet orange peel, coriander and lavender.” They praised it as an “outstanding” gin at an unexpectedly reasonable price point that’s now even cheaper thanks to Prime Day.
What time is it? It’s time you snapped up these Apple Watch deals
Apple Watch series 7, GPS and cellular: Was £469, now £369, Amazon.co.uk
Here’s a £100 saving on the year-old Apple Watch series 7. This is one stylish-looking smartwatch, but is still packed with all the features you’d expect from Apple, including a heart rate monitor with ECG app, an always-on display, blood oxygen tracking, and apps for measuring your daily activity, exercise and sleep. This is also the cellular model, so it has its own 4G connection for taking calls while away from your iPhone.
Apple Watch SE, 2021: Was £269, now £239, Amazon.co.uk
This deal knocks £30 off the 2021 Apple Watch SE. More specifically, this is an SE with the larger 44mm case option and GPS, wifi and Bluetooth, but no 4G connection of its own. The smartwatch has a silver aluminium case and comes with a blue silicon sports band. A great wearable for those who don’t need the all-singing, all-dancing flagship, the Watch SE tracks activity, exercise and sleep, as well as running, swimming, cycling and even yoga. It has a heart-rate monitor, fall detection and up to 18 hours battery life.

A wine Wednesday deal on this glass set
Waterford elegance cabernet sauvignon wine glass: Was £77.50, now £55.90, Amazon.co.uk
If you’re partaking in wine Wednesday and have realised you need some new glasses, then this is the set for you. Featuring in our review of the best wine glasses, our writer noted that owing to the “generously-proportioned” size, they “bring out the best in cabernet sauvignon or any similar classic red wine”. The “spacious hand-crafted bowl is designed to allow oxygen in and let the concentrated flavours of the wine breathe”. Currently £20 off, they’d make a great gift for you or a loved one.
