I want to say I have self-control, but when Amazon drops prices on Pokémon cards and limited edition gear, my budget takes a hit. These deals hit that magical combo of actually useful and just tempting enough to justify with "well, it is on sale."

This DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition controller is not just a gaming accessory; it's a piece of art. With its matte green armor, silver spikes, and a sinister red thumbstick, it looks like it could withstand a fall from orbit. The buttons are even labeled in the Sentinel alphabet, adding to its unique appeal. Despite its theatrical design, it remains a standard Xbox and Bluetooth controller, compatible with consoles, PC, and cloud gaming. It's the perfect blend of functionality and style for any DOOM fan.

$14.00 at Humble

For just $14, this Metroidvania Game Bundle is a steal. It includes eight highly-rated indie games, perfect for those who enjoy exploring and experimenting in their gameplay.

$44.04 at Amazon

If you're looking for a straightforward option without the extras, this Booster Bundle is for you. It contains six booster packs from the latest expansion, making it an excellent choice for those who want to focus solely on the cards. I often use these as supplements to larger trainer boxes or as easy gifts for fellow Pokémon enthusiasts.

The collection includes Shepard, Tali, Legion, and others, and they look so good that I've already cleared shelf space for them. These are perfect for any fan who still quotes Garrus.

Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet: Paldean Fates: Booster Bundle

See it at Amazon

Paldean Fates is priced at double the MSRP, but it's also incredibly hard to find in 2025. I grabbed it for the baby shiny subset, which is fantastic. If you're just after specific cards from this set, buying them individually might save you money.

Lepro O1 AI Floor Lamp

$86.39 at Amazon

The Lepro O1 AI Floor Lamp is one of those tech products that you don't fully appreciate until you use it. With 2300 lumens, it's incredibly bright and offers AI-generated lighting modes, music sync, voice control, and app scheduling. It's perfect for anyone looking for a versatile and smart lighting solution.
