Beauty Steals
You know what makes a really great gift? Perfume. You know what you probably need to buy more of for yourself? Perfume. Nordstrom Rack has some serious sales on fragrances from Gucci, Burberry, Marc Jacobs, and more, so it’s time to stop and smell the savings.
Sephora isn’t known for their discounts and deals like other retailers, but they’re trying something new this year with their Weekly Wow deals. Every Thursday, Sephora will drop a bunch of deals and offers for one week only. This week features:
- Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette
- Too Faced Melted Latex Liquified High Shine Lipstick
- Tarte Tarteist PRO Glow Liquid Highlighter
- Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral SPF 45
- T3 Featherweight Luxe 2i
The Big Sales
Flannels are great but for some reason are never priced reasonably enough to warrant a new one (even if the one you have has holes in the elbows). But alas! Uniqlo has them marked down to only $20, both men’s and women’s styles. You don’t need to be a hipster or a lumberjack to wear these, I promise (unless you are one, then cool).
When it comes to having a corner on the market, nothing really compares to Nike. And right now, use the code EPIC25 and take an extra 25% off their sale styles for both men and women. Everything you could need for a good workout wardrobe is included, from apparel, to sneakers, to gear.
If reliability is something you crave in a pair of shoes (if it isn’t, you may need to reconsider), I bet you have Cole Haan in your closet. And if you’re looking for a new pair but don’t want to spend the normal asking price, Cole Haan is taking 30% off their entire site, no code needed. Finally get a pair of ZERØGRAND’s (or the newer 2.ZERØGRAND’s) or waterproof boots that you’ll probably need in less than a month.
For me, the most common answer to “Where did you get that?” is H&M. The stores are mad houses and the clearance sections are disorganized, but digging through them is so worth it. Right now, they’re having a pre-Black Friday sale, with up to 60% off a ton of styles. Plus, use the code 9054 and grab free shipping on your order. Just one more reason not to interact with a real human this week.
Pro tip: For sales like these, sort by descending price. It’ll knock all of their “Premium Quality” pieces to the top.
Urban Outfitters is ready for you to toss those boots to the back of your closet. With up to 50% off boots, you can pick up a pair to kick around this fall and winter. Both men’s and women’s styles are included, with lace-up, Chelsea, heeled, and more styles marked down.
When you’re looking for floral, but don’t want to go full Lily Pulitzer (never go full Lily Pulitzer), Ted Baker London is the brand you should try. Their take on classic British quaintness has an edge to it, and you can grab that style while it’s on sale at Nordstrom Rack. Women’s and men’s clothes, women’s and men’s shoes, and accessories for all are included in the sale.
Sugarfina makes fancy candy. Fancy candy that is priced to be fancy. But the Champagne Bears are phenomenal, the packaging is top-notch, and sometimes you just really need to treat yourself. Even better, Sugarfina is having a Friends & Family sale where basically all of it is 20% off with the code SUGARFAM. You’re welcome.
P.S.: They also make really, really great gifts, especially when you create a Candy Bento Box.
REI is about to make you that more inclined to get outside. Right now, you can grab up to 30% off gear from Patagonia, Arc’teryx, Sorel, REI C-Op, and more during their Gear Up, Get Out sale. There’s everything from camping, to paddling, to hiking, to cycling, and everything in between. It’ll take some time to sort through everything, so you’d better get started now.
Plus, if you’re a member, use the code GEARUP20 and get 20% off any single full-price item, and an extra 20% off any REI Garage item.
HOME Goods
For a limited time, Dyson’s eBay outlet is taking an extra 20% off any $25 order(maximum $50 discount) with promo code PSHOPEARLY, including vacuums, fans, and even hair dryers. Most of the wares here are refurbished, but they’re sold directly by Dyson; this isn’t a sketchy third party situation.
My pick is the V6 Absolute for $180. I bought the V6 Animal a months ago, and it makes quick work of all the pet hair on our furniture.
That same PSHOPEARLY code will work with a number of other (admittedly less exciting) sellers as well, including Klymit, Anker, Cuisinart, Worx, and more, so check out the full list on this page.
The Shark Navigator Lift-Away is your favorite upright affordable vacuum, and Amazon’s marked it down to $120 today, well below its usual $140-$160. This deal probably won’t last long though, so lock in your order before they’re all sucked up.
It’s holiday travel time, and your airport experience will be greatly improved with this Travelpro Maxlite 4 deal. Normally priced around $90, today, you can grab this suitcase at just $66 today.
The Maxlite 4 is the follow-up to the Maxlite 3, which our readers named their favorite rolling carry-on bag. Like all Travelpro bags, it comes with a ton of organization tools, is incredibly well built for the money, and even has a limited lifetime warranty if anything goes wrong.

This KRUPS Belgian Waffle Maker has been selling for $50 for the last 6 months, but you can take it home for just $39 today.
It wasn’t listed as one of our readers’ favorite waffle makers, but does have all the features of your favorites like removable, dishwasher-safe plates, adjustable temperature, and a light that tells you when your waffle is ready. So you can skip paying a bunch of money for brunch at a restaurant and fire this baby up at home.
Need a mushy, kissing-in-the-rain kind of love story to make your holiday travel feel like it’s going by a little faster? Then look no further. An audiobook version of Nicholas Sparks’ The Notebook is just $4 today.
TECH
While not nearly as ubiquitous as Nest’s Learning Thermostats, Ecobee’s smart thermostats one-up the competition by pairing with wireless remote sensors that you can place elsewhere in your house, giving the thermostat a more accurate picture of your home’s overall temperature.
The new Ecobee4 is especially notable in that it doesn’t just work with Google Assistant and Alexa...it actually is a fully-featured Alexa device, just like an Echo Dot that lives on your wall. It’s rarely been discounted from its usual $250 since it launched earlier this year, but today on Amazon, you can get it (plus a remote sensor) for an all-time low $199.
If you love inky blacks and vibrant colors—and who doesn’t?—this 55" 2017 OLED LG TV is down to $1800 today on MassDrop, or $2600 for 65", both $200 less than you’ll find them on Amazon.
As you’d expect from any high-end TV these days, that gets you a 4K panel and Dolby Vision HDR, but OLED technology means the blacks will be far richer, and the colors more vibrant than any LCD-based screen you can buy.
We’ve seen slightly less expensive LG OLED sets from this year’s lineup, but the E7P includes a built-in sound bar and a premium design that frames the display in glass, rather than plastic or chrome. Plus, if you use any of the links on this page and sign up for a new MassDrop account, you’ll get a $10 credit applied at checkout automatically. That’s a drop in the bucket here, sure, but $10 is $10.
As I’ve learned from using Anker’s PowerCore Fusion, USB battery packs are way easier to keep charged when they can plug straight into the wall. This 9,000mAh model from RAVPower has folding prongs, and even a built-in Lightning cable for Apple devices, in addition to a USB port that can accept any cable.
It might not be the best fit for you, but if you have any less tech-savvy iPhone owners on your holiday shopping list—the kinds of people who are unlikely to remember to pack an extra wall charger and microUSB cable to keep a battery charged—this would be a great gift.
