Its pretty crazy that we welcomed a whole new decade this month, and while there were a few ups and downs, Im just thankful its over. Before I write off January completely though, one upside to this month was the vast amount of deals and sales that retailers were offering in an attempt to clear out last years inventory, as well as celebrate New Years and Martin Luther King Jr. Day. That meant there were plenty of opportunities to save on everything from apparel to home decor to tech gadgets that our readers certainly took advantage of.
If youre curious to see exactly which items were the biggest best-sellers this month, youve come to the right place. From the cult-favorite Instant Pot to the ever-popular Apple AirPods, here are the 25 products our readers were purchasing in droves.
1. Everyone's favorite wireless earbuds
Time to upgrade from those old, wired earbuds.
It should come as no surprise that Apple AirPods once again topped our best-seller list this month. Shoppers went gangbusters when they dropped back to their Black Friday price of $129 on Amazon, which they still remain at today, in case youre wondering. We named them the best true wireless earbuds because of their impressive audio quality, ultra-long battery life, and seamless connection to other Apple products, so if youre still rocking those older, wired headphones, it may finally be time to make the upgrade to these beloved buds.

2. The best essential oil diffuser to fill your home with fresh scents
Inhale calming scents and exhale stress with this diffuser.
Essential oil diffusers areyou guessed it essential for a wonderful-smelling home to unwind in. We keep recommending the InnoGear aromatherapy diffuser to our readers because of its affordable price point (normally just under $15) coupled with its impressive features such as a large water reservoir, multi-color light display, and various mist modes (continuous, intermittent, and lights-only). Reasons like these are why its our favorite essential oil diffuser, and why a ton of our readers are using it for a more relaxing home.

3. A small but mighty cube for extra outlet space
You can fit all your chargers on this powerful cube.
With a zillion things to keep plugged in these days like your laptop, cellphone, and tablet (and perhaps an essential oil diffuser or humidifier, which were oh-so-popular this month), not having enough outlet space is a universal struggle. Our readers know the feeling, which is why they bought this Anker Power Cube en masse when it went on sale earlier this month. Although its not much larger than a normal plug, it packs in three AC outlets and three USB ports into one compact little hub, which is probably why this handy cube appealed to so many.
