Top Deals

You might not need to use a Dremel all that often, but it’s one of those things everyone should keep in their tool box, if only for sanding wood and carving jack-o-lanterns. Today only as part of a Gold Box deal, Amazon’s discounting the Dremel 3000 to an all-time low $45.

The Dremel 3000 features a variable speed motor that can spin anywhere from 5,000 to 35,000 RPM, and includes 28 accessories to get you started with projects all around the house. Even if you already own one yourself, this would be a fantastic gift for someone that doesn’t. Just remember that this is a Gold Box deal, meaning this price is only available today, or until sold out.

While not nearly as good as the Prime-only deals we saw last month, if you’re in the market for a Kindle e-reader this holiday season, you can save $20-$30 today on three different models.

The $50 price point on the entry-level model brings it into impulse purchase range, but just remember that it doesn’t include a backlight. The $170 Voyage is really nice, and I own one myself, but it’s probably not worth the $70 price premium over the excellent Paperwhite.

If you don’t mind buying a refurb (and since they include a full warranty, you shouldn’t), you can also opt for a Paperwhite for $80, or a Voyage for $120, both excellent prices.

TCL’s 2016 4K TVs aren’t technological marvels, but they might just represent the best value in the TV world, and two separate 55" models are on sale for all-time low prices right now.

Today on Amazon, the TCL UP130 is down to $500, and the US5800 is just $400. They’re both 55", and they both include built-in Roku software, but the UP130 though includes an enhanced remote with a microphone, 802.11ac Wi-Fi (rather than 802.11n), and improved styling. As far as picture quality goes, they should be essentially identical, so it’s up to you whether the extra accoutrements are worth $100.

Update: Walmart has advertised this same price, plus a $30 gift card on Black Friday. Availability will surely be very limited, and you’ll have to pay sales tax, but you may want to wait on that.

It seems like this is the Black Friday where we finally get some decent cash discounts on PS4 consoles. While supplies last, you can get a PS4 Slim Uncharted bundle for an all-time low $240, with no sales tax for most buyers. There may be more valuable deals later this week with bonus games and controllers, you won’t see a bigger cash discount.

A KitchenAid stand mixer is just one of those things that should be in every kitchen, so if you’ve been meaning to pick one up, Amazon’s offering one of the best deals we’ve ever seen.

For a limited time, dozens of colors of the KitchenAid Artisan 5 qt. mixer are marked down to $224, which is a great price on its own, but if you fill out a mail-in rebate (form here), you’ll get a $50 prepaid Visa card thrown in for free. That brings the effective price down to $174, which is the best deal we’ve ever seen on a non-refurb Artisan.

The Roku streaming stick is all you need, and Amazon just knocked $15 off its base price, the best price we’ve seen, and a match for its promised Black Friday pricing. Even if you already have the old model, it might be worth $35 just for the ability to stream audio to your mobile device, which allows you to watch TV in bed without waking your significant other.

Sony’s RX100 line is the cream of the point and shoot camera crop, and it’s priced accordingly. But for a limited time, you can get an RX 100 Mark III for $698, the best price Amazon’s ever listed. If you need some convincing, just check out Gizmodo’s review has a full rundown and some sample images.

Anker (operating under its home-focused brand Eufy) just released the new RoboVac 11, and you can already save $44 with promo code NEWVAC01.

Compared to the popular RoboVac 10, the 11 is over twice as powerful, includes a larger dust bin, and boasts a tempered glass top case, rather than plastic. Pound for pound, it stacks up very well with mid-level Roombas, but at $176, it’s far less expensive.

I know that we espouse the virtues of monochrome laser printers, but if you really need the ability to print in color, Canon’s Pixma MX922 is worth your consideration. With over 8,000 mostly positive user reviews on Amazon, this is the rare Inkjet printer that you might not actually hate.

This model sells for $90 pretty consistently, but today, you can snag one for $65 with promo code EARLYBF5, complete with a free bonus black ink cartridge. For context, the best advertised Black Friday deal we’d seen on this model was $66, without any extra ink.

This PUMA sale may not be part of Black Friday Week on Amazon, but up to 50% off PUMA shoes, clothing, and more isn’t a sale to scoff at. This Gold Box is clothing-heavy, with tons of shoes, shirts, jackets, and more that are perfect for working out. But this is a one-day thing, so don’t think you’ll have all week to decide.

When it comes to having a corner on the market, nothing really compares to Nike. And right now, they’re marking down sale items for men and women an extra 25% off when you use the code EXTRA25. Check out a bunch of items, from sneakers to running gear, to sweatpants, and hop on that sportswear bandwagon.

If you’ve spent any time in fancy cocktail bars, you’ve probably noticed that many of them serve drinks with a single, huge sphere of ice. Why do they do this? Well, mostly because it looks really cool, but it also dilutes your drink less quickly, which is important when you’re paying $14 plus tip.

Luckily, you can make these ice balls at home yourself, and a set of two molds that will last for years costs less than a Old Fashioned at your neighborhood bar.

This basketball-dunking 15' trampoline is meant for kids, but hell, I’d play on it in a heartbeat. $250 is about $80 less than normal, and an all-time low, but it’s only available today, so hop over to Amazon before the buzzer sounds on this deal.

Ready to experience meat in a whole new way? You can pick up the newest Wi-Fi version of Anova’s top-selling Sous Vide immersion circulator for $159, an all-time low.

Lifehacker has a great explainer on Sous-Vide cooking for you to check out, but the basic idea is that you seal the food in plastic bags, and then cook it in precisely heated water over a longer period of time. It sounds weird, but trust me when I say that it works like magic.

Several retailers have promised to sell the Bluetooth model for $100 on Black Friday, so it might be worth waiting for that. Just note that the Wi-Fi model should heat up your water a little faster (900W element vs. 800W), and since it connects via Wi-Fi, you could turn it on before you leave work, and have a perfectly heated water bath waiting for you at home. Is that worth an extra $59? That’s up to you.

In addition to drastically speeding up your meal prep, Instant Pot pressure cookers are also your favorite slow cookers, and some of your favorite rice cookers, and two high-end models are on sale today on Amazon.

You get to choose from the IP-DUO60 for $96, or the Bluetooth-connected IP-Smart for $150, both the best prices we’ve seen in months. The DUO60 includes seven different cooking functions, while the Smart includes 15, plus smartphone compatibility for precise recipe programming. Not to put any pressure on you, but we don’t know how long these deals will last, so don’t delay.

A Toys R Us gift card could come in handy in over the next few weeks, and PayPal’s eBay storefront will send you a $100 card for just $85, while supplies last.

Last week, Black Friday pricing started early on a 300W Samsung sound bar with a wireless subwoofer. But if $148 is a little more than you were hoping to spend, a 120W model was just knocked down to $83, an all-time low. Needless to say, either one would be a massive upgrade over your TV’s built-in speakers.

‘Tis the season for wireless headphones, and two different options from JBL are on sale today on Amazon. You can choose from the over-ear Synchros E50BTs for $89, or the on-ear E40BTs for $40, both the best prices you’ll find anywhere on the web.

Black Friday savings aren’t limited to big, fancy 4K monitors (like this one). If you’re in the market for basic 1080p screens to build-out a multi-monitor workstation, Amazon’s got you covered today.

Amazon’s making you an offer you can’t refuse: The Godfather Collection includes remastered versions of all three Godfather films, plus a bonus disc full of special features, all for just $17 in today’s Gold Box. This set rarely dips below $30, so if you’ve been meaning to pick it up for yourself, or just have a film buff on your holiday shopping list, you won’t want to miss out.

TP-Link’s tri-band Archer C5400 is a whole lot of router, and it can be yours for $200 today, an all-time low, and a huge discount from its usual $265-$300. That gets you MIMO support, a pair of USB ports, a fast processor, and even a 2-year warranty.

If Apple made a monitor stand, it would probably look a lot like this. It would also probably cost about $200, instead of $28.

Basically every retailer under the sun has promised DualShock 4 controllers for $40 on Black Friday, but, uh, Newegg’s eBay storefront has them for $38 right now. If you’re planning on buying a PS4 in the coming weeks, this is a no-brainer.

If you’ve somehow avoided buying Rocket League up to this point, Amazon will sell you a PC download for just $14 right now. If you get anywhere near as addicted as I have, it’ll be the best bang for your buck that you’ve ever experienced.

Update: Sold out

Assuming your computer can output 4K at 60Hz, there’s never been a better time to upgrade your monitor. Today on Amazon, you can get a 28" Samsung TN display for $250, or a 27" LG IPS display for $349, both all-time lows. Personally, I’d go for the LG, but both are great deals.

Update: The Samsung is up to $300 now.

And so it begins. Besides the markdown of Amazon Prime (which if you haven’t taken advantage of, what are you even doing?), Amazon is rolling out a bunch of great deals today. The site is taking 20% off on “select clothes, shoes, jewelry, watches, and more.” And by “select,” they mean basically everything. Discount is applied at checkout, so make sure you’re paying attention.

Say your wireless router can’t push a strong signal to every corner of your house, or maybe you own some kind of old set top box that needs an ethernet connection, but doesn’t live near the router. A simple powerline adapter is one of your best options for extending a home network, and you can get a great one for just $30 today.

Iced coffee is a brilliant way to sell people ice for the price of coffee (which is mostly water to begin with). Cold brew on the other hand is a different process that results in less acidity, among other benefits, and you can do it yourself at home with this top-selling Takeya, now down to $19 on Amazon.

This non-coffee drinker bought one of these a few months ago, and I’m absolutely in love with it. All you have to do is fill the basket with ground coffee, fill the container with water, and let it steep overnight in the fridge. The resulting coffee concentrate needs to be watered down, so one batch should last you several days.

Amazon’s listed slightly lower prices on a few occasions, but $18 is still several dollars less than its usual going rate.

Cordless hand vacs are great for cleaning furniture, shelves, and especially your car, and you’d be hard-pressed to find one for less than $20.

Until very recently, if you wanted an external hard drive with more than 2TB of space, you had no choice but to plug in an external power cord. Now though, you can carry 4TB around in your pocket or bag for just $110, with nothing but a USB cable to connect it. That price even includes 200GB of Microsoft OneDrive storage for two years, which is a $96 value on its own.

We’re not sure how long this deal will last, so if you need to keep a lot of storage in your travel bag, or plugged into your Xbox One, I’d grab this quickly.

Your favorite USB car charger just happens to be the smallest one you can buy, and you can grab it on Amazon for $8 today with code AUK2SCAR. We’ve seen it go as low as $6 on a few occasions, but this is a match for the best deal we’ve seen this year, if it’s been on your wish list.

Overwatch is arguably 2016's only good thing must-play game, and while it’s had a few small discounts around the margins, today’s the first time it’s ever gotten a significant price drop.

While supplies last, $35 will get you a copy on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. That’s the same price we’ve seen in Black Friday ads, so there’s no point waiting for next week.

You voted Indochino your favorite custom clothing company by a wide margin, and this week you can dress yourself in one of their premium suits for just $350. Use promo code KINJA.

You do not have to go through the measurement and customization process to lock in this discount. You can checkout now and submit later, which makes it very easy to gift a suit.

Our previous $375 deal on these suits was our most popular exclusive ever, and most requested to have make a return.

Head over to this post for the rest of the details on this deal.

The new MacBook Pro (sans-Touch Bar) is the pricey-but-great Macbook Air apparent (see what I did there?), but today on Amazon, it’s slightly less expensive than usual. By $100, to be exact. Not bad for a brand new Apple product.

Update: The same discount is available on the 12" MacBook as well, in both standard configurations.

Whether you’re enticed by the idea of a Bluetooth-connected toothbrush, or just want it to get off your lawn, $70 is a great deal for an Oral-B toothbrush with a pressure sensor, five modes, and compatibility with several different brush heads.

If you want to pair it with your phone to track your brushing habits and learn which parts of your mouth aren’t getting enough attention, great! If not, it’s still worth buying at this price, which is a new all-time low. Just be sure to clip the $15 coupon.

While it doesn’t have the brand recognition of Nest’s learning Thermostat, the Ecobee3 Smart Thermostat one-ups its most popular competitor by including a wireless remote sensor that you can place elsewhere in your house, giving the thermostat a more accurate picture of your home’s overall temperature. Plus, it’ll work with Siri via HomeKit, and your Amazon Echo too.

Nose hair is a problem a lot of people have but, for some reason, few people take care of. For a limited time, score this Panasonic nose hair trimmer for just $10, and you can be one of those people doing something about it. Harambe didn’t die so you could look like The Missing Link.

If you missed out on on last month’s wiper blade sale, Amazon will sell you two Michelin Stealth blades today for $20. Just add any two to your cart (shipped and sold by Amazon.com), and the price will automatically be reduced to $20 at checkout. The deal even works if you buy two different sized blades, so you should have no trouble finding a combination that fits your car.

Life’s too short to vacuum every other day, but luckily, you can pawn that tedious chore off to a Roomba, and the entry level 650 model is marked down to $274 today on Amazon, which is $16 less than its previous lowest price.

While it does require a bit of babysitting from time to time, I haven’t vacuumed my house manually in months, and yet the floors always feel clean, even with two pets.
