  "account": "Labor Day weekend shoppers rejoice, as the best headphones deal has been found. The Sony WH-1000XM5, previously priced at $399.99, is now available at Amazon for just $198, a whopping 50% off. These 5-star-rated headphones, which we gave a perfect score to, are back down to their lowest price ever. All four color options are discounted to this same price. Other discounted headphones are available, but none come close to the Sony WH-1000XM5 at this price point. Despite being a few years old, these headphones remain stellar, especially at this cost. The newer Sony WH-100XM6 headphones are discounted in the Labor Day sales, but are still higher at $398. If you're looking for an even cheaper option, the entry-level Sony WH-CH520 is now just $38, down from $69.99. However, the WH-1000XM5s offer more features and a better design. There are no issues with these headphones, and they are the real bargain of the day.",
  "summary": "With $200 off, the Sony WH-1000XM5 Labor Day deal beats any other headphone deal live now.",
