ESPN® Pickleball Paddle
- Price: $7.00
Pickleball is a wildly popular sport with a slightly silly name. Odds are, your local tennis court is exploding with new players. If you want to join their ranks, why splurge on an expensive racket, like a Holbrook pickleball racket that costs nearly $200, only to find out you don’t really like the sport?
Instead, pick up a colorful, budget-friendly racket at Five Below for just $7. If you do become a pickleball champion in the making, you can always upgrade later while still keeping these paddles on hand as affordable backups.

2-in-1 Power Bank & Portable Fan
- Price: $7.00
You’ve been waiting for years to see your favorite band at an outdoor music festival. However, as you stand in the heat and the crush of bodies, you start to feel a bit weak and sick. Before you know it, you’re being carried out on a stretcher — just as the lead singer opens the first song.
To avoid heat exhaustion (and an expensive medical bill), bring along this portable fan that doubles as a power bank. Once charged, it helps you stay cool and keeps your devices powered up, so you can relax and enjoy your time outside.
Foldable Camp Chair
- Price: $7.00
These amazingly priced items will sell out fast, as everyone loves to sit down on the go. You can kick back in this portable chair while camping, pull up to the sidelines of all your kids’ sporting events or provide extra seating for your next outdoor gathering. It sets up in seconds and keeps you comfortable wherever you go.
Inflatable Cornhole Game
- Price: $5.00
Perfect for a fall tailgate or impromptu backyard party, this 16-inch by 27-inch inflatable game is great for kids and adults alike. You can grab two to set up teams, and it would still only be $10. The game includes one inflatable target board, one repair sticker and four waterproof beanbags, which you can use inside or outside.
Hydraquench Tumbler, 40-Ounce
- Price: $7.00
Nobody has to know this colorful tumbler isn’t a pricier Stanley — truly, nobody has to know. So, why spend $50 or more on a high-end tumbler or waste money on bottled water all summer long when you can get this affordable, thirst-busting alternative? This great-looking tumbler from Five Below keeps drinks cold for hours, helping you stay hydrated without the extra expense.
