Top Deals

Whether you’re starting or expanding your collection, Amazon’s running a great deal today on your favorite rechargeable batteries.

$28 gets you the newer Eneloop Power Pack, which comes with a charger, 10 AAs, and four AAAs. That’s two more of each type than the old Power Pack (still available for $33), though you won’t get any C or D spacers, which is a bummer. Still, that should be enough batteries to keep most of your electronics humming along, and $28 is the best price Amazon’s ever listed.


If your current phone has seen better days, Verizon’s running a pretty incredible deal on top-of-the-line handsets right now, with relatively few strings attached.

For a limited time, you can get an iPhone 7 for just $10/month for 24 months (add $5 for each additional storage tier, and for the 7 Plus). Same goes for the Google Pixel and the Galaxy S7. If you have an eligible phone to trade-in (basically, a 2015 or newer flagship), you can even get them for free, but you don’t have to trade in a device to get the discount.

Let’s take the 32GB iPhone 7, as an example. You’d pay $10 over 24 months, and own the phone outright at the end for $240. If you bought it upfront today, it’d cost you $650. Obviously, you’ll need to maintain Verizon service in good standing over that two year period, as the discount is paid out over time as a monthly bill credit, but otherwise, there really aren’t any catches here. This isn’t even one of those switcher promotions; current customers are also eligible for the same discounts.

My mom and sister are on a Verizon shared plan with me, and they both upgraded from their old iPhones earlier today, despite consistent (and to me, baffling) resistance over the past few months to do so. If they can upgrade, so can you.


RAVPower shrunk its 12,000mAh battery pack to fit in most pockets, and it can be yours for $19, an all-time low. Even if you’re all set on battery packs (a safe bet if you read this site regularly), this would be a great stocking stuffer.



$50 Brinker Gift Card, $40 with code BRINKER10 | $50 TGI Fridays Gift Card, $40 with code TGI10 | $50 Panera Gift Card, $40 with code PANERA10

You like food, I like food, everyone likes food. If you particularly like food from Panera, TGI Fridays, Chili’s, Macaroni Grill, On The Border, and/or Maggiano’s, Amazon has a gift card deal for you today. These also make for great last minute gifts; who doesn’t like getting a free meal?

Just be sure to select the $50 option on the product page, and enter the appropriate promo code at checkout.


If you missed out over Black Friday, Target’s taking a whopping $150 off both the 12.9″ and 9.7″ iPad Pro today, and $100 off the iPad Air 2, in all configurations and colors.

If you opt for the Pro, Amazon has the Apple Pencil available at a very modest $5 discount.

Ninja makes our readers’ favorite affordable blender, and today only, four different models are on sale for all-time low prices.

The most similar model to the BL660 our readers chose is the BL740, marked down to $81. From what I can tell, this is just a new model of the 660, with a slightly redesigned base, but the specs are seemingly identical.

You’ve got three other options to pick from as well, and they get more powerful as you step up the line, from 550 watts on the Pulse to a terrifying 1500 on the Duo. That said, they do all come with multiple sizes of blending containers, so you can make a pitcher of drinks for everyone, or a single smoothie to go, meaning clean-up will be a breeze.



Dyson DC58, $130

Dyson vacuums suck, and I mean that in the best possible way. The handheld, battery-operated DC58 is down to just $130 today on Dyson’s eBay store, which is easily the best price we’ve see. For context, the last time we posted a deal on this vacuum, it was $150 for a refurb.


Casper might be the best mattress for everyone, but not for your houseguests. Put them on this discounted Insta-Bed air mattress, marked down to an all-time low $88, today only.

That’s more expensive than a lot of air mattresses, but this one includes a built-in pump which silently trickles more air into the mattress overnight, meaning it’ll still be fully inflated come morning. If that’s not a miracle, I don’t know what is.


Anki Overdrive is like slot cars for the smartphone age, and the starter set is marked down to $100 right now, which is $50 less than usual, and $20 less than even its Black Friday price. If it looks familiar, it’s because you probably played with it at an Apple Store.


Sphero’s BB-8 RC droid remains one of the coolest toys ever made, and now that its Force Band can also control your home through IFTTT, it’s even more enticing.

Today only, Amazon will sell you the BB-8 and the band together for $140, an all-time low. The band alone usually costs $80, so adding the adorable rolling droid for $60 seems like a no-brainer to me.


GoPro’s HERO+ LCD strikes a great balance between the entry-level HERO and the tricked out HERO5, and at $150, it’s one of the best GoPro bargains we’ve seen.

That gets you smooth 1080/60 recording (no 4K, sorry), 8 MP stills, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, waterproof housing, and yes, an LCD display to help you line up your shots and change settings. Today’s price is the best we’ve ever seen on this model, but it’s only available today.


There are quite a few permutations of the Lord of the Rings films out there on Blu-ray, but the extended editions are the ones you want, and the extended trilogy pack is down to $40 on Amazon today, complete with all three extended films totaling 11 hours, plus 26 hours of special features to boot. No wonder it’s the best selling Blu-ray in Kinja Deals history.

Much like today’s Harry Potter Blu-ray deal, this was cheaper on Black Friday, but still, it almost never sells for under $50.

Now that Harry Potter is culturally relevant again, it may be a good time to pick up the 8-film Blu-ray set for $40. That’s $5 more than Black Friday, but still far less than what Amazon usually charges. Accio discount!


If excessive noise (or utter silence) makes it difficult for you to doze off, this popular white noise machine might be the key to a better night’s sleep. Marpac’s Dohm-DS boasts a 4.4 star average on over 10,000 (!!!) reviews, and Amazon’s offering the white model for $35 today as part of a Gold Box deal. I wouldn’t sleep on it, as this price is unlikely to last long.

Marpac’s USB-rechargeable portable model, hilariously named the Rohm, is also on sale for an all-time low $24 as part of the same deal, if you can’t leave home without your white noise.


For a certain kind of person, a new knife is the best stocking stuffer, and several models from Kershaw on sale today, starting at $30. Just make sure it’s sheathed before you put it in someone’s stocking.



2-Pack Aukey LED Mini Flashlights, $8 with code AUKEYTWO

Mini LED flashlights belong in every drawer, glove box, and tool chest, and you can get two of Aukey’s new flashlights for $8 today with code AUKEYTWO. Unfortunately, they don’t include a rechargeable battery, opting instead of a single AA, but uh, there’s a deal for that.


If you want your cool air to also be purified by one sleek piece of machinery, the Dyson Pure Cool Air Purifier and Fan is it. If you don’t mind a refurb, and you shouldn’t, with Amazon’s Gold Box deal you can pick up your own Dyson for $300, today only.



Aukey 300W Power Inverter, $20 with code AUCAR3WP

You might not need to use it often, but a car inverter is one of those “just in case” things that you should always keep in your trunk or glove box. At $20 with code AUCAR3WP, why not?



Koogeek Smart Plug, $28 with code TXYZSAZX

We see deals on WeMo switches and TP-Link Smart Plugs on a pretty regular basis, but this similar product from Koogeek is Apple HomeKit certified, and only $28 today.

Like those other smart switches, the Koogeek Wi-Fi Smart Plug includes an app for turning your electronics on and off, and putting them on a schedule. The key difference here is that you can also control it with Siri from your phone, or from Control Center in iOS 10. That’s a big deal if you’re an iPhone owner, and with promo code TXYZSAZX, you’re not even paying a premium for it.


Club Monaco is one of those stores that you frequently stare at but never purchase from. With an additional 40% off sale items, no code needed, Club Monaco is about to sing you a siren song. Buy this peacoat or that cocktail dress. It’s an extra 40% off. Just go for it.


If you want to install a garbage disposal, your search can begin and end with the Waste King line. This 1/2 horsepower model isn’t the most powerful they sell, but at $68, it’s a great value, and should be able to chew through most everything you throw at it. That’s the best deal Amazon’s listed all year, so grab one before the price returns to normal.


This Crock-Pot doesn’t include a programming feature, or an extra little dipper, but it does have one thing going for it: A small footprint. If you have a tiny kitchen, and are only cooking for one or two people, this 3 quart cooker should have more than enough space to make a good meal, without hogging all of your precious counter space.


Whenever you can find a gift card for cheaper than it’s value, you should probably buy it, especially around the holidays. Right now, you can grab $100 gift cards for Lands’ End for $90 and Under Armour for $85. You’re automatically saving money, which isn’t something to take lightly around this time of the year.



$50 AMC Gift Card, $40 with code AMC10

If you have any movie buffs on your holiday shopping list, you could do a lot worse than to give them a $50 AMC Theaters gift card. You don’t have to tell them that it only cost you $40. Just choose the $50 card and enter AMC10 at the checkout to see the discount.


There’s always that person that wears an ugly Christmas sweater for the holidays, and that person could be you. Be prepared to be super embarrassing this year with Amazon’s sale on festive holiday sweaters. There are also some more PG-rated ones for the kids, which seems much more appropriate.


The final J.Crew Factory flash sale includes *takes a deep breath* 60% off men’s and women’s, 50% off boys’ and girls’, an extra 40% off clearance, and free shipping with the code FUNSALE. It’s your chance to easily get those last minute gifts instead of elbowing an old lady for the last crewneck sweater on the 24th.


Time’s running out to get a solid PS4 discount before prices return to normal, and Amazon’s sweetening the pot with a $25 gift card, in addition to the standard $50 holiday discount on the PS4 Slim Uncharted Bundle.

That’s not quite as good a deal as last week’s PlayStation Plus bundle, but hey, that’s what you get for procrastinating.


$8 would be a good price for a standalone Quick Charge 2.0 wall charger with one port. Today though, that gets you two QC-compatible ports, and two compatible microUSB cables thrown in for good measure. Just be sure to use promo code DUALWALL at checkout.


While supplies last (which, if history is any indication, won’t be long), you can get a 17 cup and 2.5 cup RubberMaid FreshWorks container for just $14. These went down to an all-time low $12 a few months ago, but sold out ridiculously fast. So if you’re still thinking about grabbing a set, now’s the time.

These recently became one of the fastest products to ever reach our Bestseller pantheon, and we’ve heard nothing but good things from our readers.



Esky Weather Radio, $20 with code REWQ3F7E

You never want to be in a situation where you need a solar and hand crank-powered weather radio with a flashlight and USB port for charging your phone, but when you can get one for $20, you probably should buy it just in case.


Need a gift idea for the DIY aficionado in your life? $99 today gets you a circular saw, a reciprocating saw, a drill/driver, a work light, and two universal batteries from Black & Decker, while supplies last.

To give you some context here, those 20V batteries sell for $36 each right now, so the fact that you get four tools with them for $99 is kind of insane.


Corsair’s K-series mechanical keyboards are some of your favorites for gaming, and for general use as well, and the popular K70 is down to $80 today with brown switches, or $85 with the clickier blues.

The Corsair K70’s aluminum chassis lends the keyboard a premium feel, and its key-by-key customizable backlighting is just plain cool. If you don’t already know what kind of key switches you like, Lifehacker has a great explainer to help you understand the difference.



Cabeau Evolution Cool Travel Pillow, $48 with code WSUDKC3V

The Cabeau Evolution was your favorite travel pillow (by a long shot), and following last weekend’s deal on the original model, you can now save 20% on the company’s “Cool” model as well.

Like the original Evolution, the Evolution Cool is made of memory foam, and wraps all the way around your neck to provide support if your head nods off to the side while you’re traveling. The key difference is the integrated vent running along the middle of the pillow, which should keep your neck from getting too sweaty.

If you have any long trips on the horizon, you can save 20% on all four colors today with promo code WSUDKC3V. Cabeau’s pillows almost nevergo on sale, so if you’ve had one on your wish list, this is a great opportunity.


Finally, someone made the Glow Bowl, but for everywhere else in your home. This motion-sensing light strip is billed as an under-bed night light, but you could just as easily attach it under your bathroom counter, along a railing, beneath your baby’s crib, or anywhere else you might need to venture in the middle of the night. For a limited time, you can get one for just $18 with code SJMFQK08.



Klipsch ProMedia 2.1, $110 with code JINGLEBELLS

Klipsch’s ProMedia 2.1 speaker system is the only three-time winner in Kinja Co-Op history, and BuyDig’s taking $40 off the set today with promo code JINGLEBELLS. If you’re still using, say, your laptop’s built-in speakers, I can’t express how huge this upgrade will be.



iClever BoostCube, $4 with code ICLEVER0

iClever’s BoostCube line is The Wirecutter’s pick for best travel-friendly USB charger, and for a limited time, you can get one for just $4 with code ICLEVER0, in either black or white. Needless to say, these would make great little stocking stuffers.



YOSH Smartphone Dry Bag, $5 with code I9YDJD9U

Sure, it’s a little bit out of season, but at $5, this smartphone dry bag (with nearly 3,000 reviews!) would make a great stocking stuffer.


To celebrate the holidays, Amazon’s offering a pretty spectacular deal on a few dozen grocery and household essentials: Buy $75, save $25 at checkout. So if you need Red Bull, trash bags, San Pellegrino, or over-the-counter medications that are included in this promotion, $25 is a pretty spectacular discount, and you won’t even have to drive to the store.


Not content to let the holiday season pass by without selling you two dozen products, Anker’s back with another batch of awesome promo codes. Stock up for yourself, or turn them all into gifts; you can’t go wrong with anything here.

There are too many new deals to list them all here, but you can find all of the links and promo codes on this post.



In case you missed out during Deals Week, several of Amazon’s most popular gadgets are back on sale for one last push during the holiday shopping season.

The Echoes and Paperwhite are back down to the same prices at Black Friday, while the $40 Fire Tablet deal is $7 higher than it was before. Interestingly, the Fire HD 10 actually didn’t get a Black Friday discount, so today’s $200 deal is your first chance to save on that model in quite some time.


Anker’s home goods brand, Eufy, put its new set of copper string lights back on sale today for their lowest price ever, complete with adjustable brightness and multiple effects. A version of these lights without the remote was on sale for $7 last week, but the remote’s convenience and added lighting options make it well worth the price premium.



$5 off any $15 physical book order. Promo code GIFTBOOK.

Hot off the heels of its $10-off-$25 physical book sale last weekend, Amazon’s now taking $5 off any $15 book purchase (including multiple, cheaper books) with promo code GIFTBOOK.

Just like last time, this deal excludes Kindle titles and audiobooks, but if there are any commemorative coffee table-type books or collector’s editions that you’ve been eyeing, this is a great opportunity. Just choose carefully; you can only use the code once per account.
