What We Found in an Amazon Mystery Box: Google Nest & More — June 27, 2026

This Amazon Mystery Box came in at over $1,300 in estimated retail value, and four smart thermostats carried most of the weight. Hot Springs bargain hunters, this one was a ride.

Four Google Nest GV67335 Learning Thermostats (4th gen) with Temperature Sensor (2nd gen) in Silver. Four. Each one retails at $234, so the thermostats alone cleared $936. That's the whole box paid for seventeen times over before we touched anything else. Smart home upgrades like these have real demand — contractors, new homeowners, gift buyers — and we had a stack of them.

Once the thermostat stack was out, the rest of the box shifted into lighter territory. Ten Suede Shoe Cleaner 200ml bottles at $8.99 each rounded out the care-product side, and ten makeup brushes added another $40 to the total. Not flashy, but genuinely useful stuff that'll move through our bins and shelves quickly.

Then there were the drinks — a 12-pack of Pure Leaf Iced Tea Zero Sugar Sweet Tea and a single Starbucks Iced Energy Strawberry Kiwi can. The team may or may not have debated keeping those for themselves. We will neither confirm nor deny.

The rest of the pull — 36 bin-labeled pieces with nearly $195 in retail between them — is already heading into our store bins for resale. Plus dozens more bin-labeled items available right on the floor if you want to dig.

Over $1,300 retail out of one sealed Amazon Mystery Box that cost $55. We keep saying it and boxes like this keep proving it — come see what's on the shelves this week in Hot Springs.
