Top Deals

Anker, purveyor of basically all of your favorite charging gear, is featured in today’s Amazon Gold Box with some great deals on products to give as gifts, or to keep for yourself.

There are only five products available, making this a bit smaller than some other Gold Boxes we’ve seen, but all of the prices are great, and everything is well-reviewed. The PowerCore 10000 USB battery pack should be particularly popular at $18, and could very well sell out early, but be sure to check out all of the deals below.

Whether you’re looking to start a podcast, or just want your Skype calls to sound better, the Blue Yeti is one of the most popular mid-range USB microphones you can buy, and Amazon’s offering the Vintage White version for $89 today, matching its Black Friday pricing.

You don’t need to remove wheels, fold down seats, and buy a bunch of bungee cords to transport your bike by car. Allen Sports’ popular bike racks can hold anywhere from two to five bikes to the back of nearly any vehicle, and a ton of different options are on sale today on Amazon.

Amazon is marking down a bunch of Levi’s styles, today only. A lot of it is outerwear and tops, but there are some great deals on classic styles like the 511 or 501 for men and 711 or 710 for women. With prices like these, a Canadian tuxedo may even start to look appealing.

It’s a no-brainer that you should be stocking up on gloves and hats now, because you do not want to be caught without them when it actually gets uncomfortably cold. Amazon is marking down tons of winter accessories to prices that will make you buy multiple, or grab some for yourself while also getting some pretty practical gifts.

My favorite piece of sports apparel (besides my jersey) is my NY Rangers beanie, mainly because hats are the most practical thing to wear to a hockey game. If you need to support your team while also keeping your head warm, or need a great last minute gift, Amazon’s one-day sale on sports hats and beanies can help. Your favorite NBA, NHL, NFL, NCAA, and MLS teams are all here.

The Amopé is an electric foot file that literally files down the gross calluses on your feet until they slightly resemble that of a modern human. Clip the coupon and get your foot shaver for $5 off and start taking better care of your treads.

There’s also a nail buffer that I own and it’s actually pretty fantastic. - Jillian

You guys love Rubbermaid’s Easy Find Lid storage system, and today, the glass version is on sale for the best price we’ve seen in months.

Like the popular plastic set, these containers nest nicely, and even though you get five different container sizes, you only have to keep up with two sizes of lids. Unlike the plastic version though, these are oven safe up to 425 degrees, plus they just feel more premium.

$38 gets you 11 containers and enough lids to match, the best price Amazon’s ever offered. Compared to the 42 piece plastic set, that’s quite a premium, but they should last you for years, and can be used in more ways.

It’s not too late to decorate for the holidays, and with this high-end laser light, you’ll be the scourge envy of the entire block.

Even at an all-time low $87, this laser costs far more than the comparable Star Shower, but according to reviewers, you really do get what you pay for. Judging by this YouTube review, the LedMAII light is far brighter and covers a much larger area, and its remote allows you to control it and set a sleep timer without leaving your house. The best part though? It includes blue lights in addition to the standard red and green, and you can enable or disable each color independently, so you could also pull it out during the Fourth of July.

Amazon’s never sold this model for less than the listed $107, but for a limited time, promo code RGBLIGHTS will take an extra $20 off in your cart.

If you’re ready to take the plunge into LED lighting, this 6-pack of bulbs from TCP is down to just $15 (A19) or $24 (BR30 flood lights) on Amazon right now. They aren’t dimmable, so you won’t want to put them in certain fixtures, but they’re great bulk packs for the price, and you even get to choose from soft white and daylight.

Once you’ve got them, check to see if your local utility company offers rebates for purchasing LEDs. If so, it’s possible these could pay for themselves even quicker than they would otherwise.

You can be the proud new owner of 200 ball pit balls for half off today. And unlike your nearest ball pit, these are guaranteed to be free of dead rodents and used heroin needles.

I know we call a lot of things stocking stuffers around this time of year, but these M&Ms bottles are actually specifically designed just for that purpose, and Amazon’s taking $2 off a 6-pack today via a clippable coupon. Just note that you won’t see the final price until checkout. You may want to go with the no-rush shipping, it could be tough to stop yourself from eating these before Christmas.

We heard you like Coca-Cola, so we put some Coca-Cola on a fridge that you’ll put Coca-Cola in, so you can enjoy Coca-Cola while enjoying a Coca-Cola.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to watch all five Mission: Impossible films in one day with this $19 Blu-ray set. I know it’s Tom Cruise and everything, but the last two especially were actually really good. Just remember that this price is only available today.

Even if your personal Miyazaki collection is comprehensive, I bet you have some friends and family members who would appreciate his films. Several of his best are down to $15 on Blu-ray on Amazon right now, which is just about as cheap as they ever get.

Yesterday, the fashionable Fitbit Alta dipped back down to its Black Friday price, but today, it’s the new Fitbit Charge 2's turn. $110 gets you the capable tracker, which includes a heart rate sensor, automatic exercise recognition, GPS run tracking (when connected to your phone), and more.

Do you buy your movie tickets through Fandango? If you head over to Best Buy’s site and buy a $25 Fandango gift card, you’ll get a $5 bonus Best Buy card for free. That’s enough to get yourself something from the maze of tchotchkes and candy they Best Buy sets up in front of the cash registers.

That beautiful new TV you bought on Black Friday needs to go somewhere, so hang it on your wall with this $20 articulating mount. This model is sized for TVs up to 56", and can rotate 360 degrees, swivel 180, and even includes a 9' HDMI cable for kicks.

Sony’s a6300 is a pocket-sized, 4K-shooting beast of a camera, and while it’s yet to get a single cash discount on Amazon since its release earlier this year, it does come with a $100 gift card today. That applies whether you get the body only, or bundle a kit lens for $150 more.

If you still haven’t tried out a home theater bias light, there’s never been a better time to pick one up. Vansky’s LED bias light strips plug directly into your TV’s USB port for power, and stick to the back of the set via built-in adhesive. Once you turn your TV on, the LEDs cast a soft glow on the wall behind them, which can reduce eyestrain when watching in the dark, and improve your TV’s perceived black levels.

We’ve posted deals on these several times now, but today’s $12 (RGB) and $10 (white) price points are all-time lows. Just be sure to use code GT8OMP06 at checkout to get the deal.

Yi’s original action camera is your favorite budget model, and the new 4K version packs in GoPro-quality specs for roughly half of GoPro’s prices, and both are on sale for the holidays.

$80 (down from $100) gets you the original 1080p cam that our readers know and love, and the 4K upgrade will set you back $210, or $40 less than usual. Both include Wi-Fi, slow motion, and stellar optics, but the 4K model also includes a touchscreen, whereas the cheaper model requires a connected smartphone to access most settings.

Just note that neither comes with any accessories, but if you buy the appropriate waterproof housing, you’ll be able to use any GoPro mount you want. Luckily, both models are $10 off their usual prices right now.

And speak of the devil, a 40-piece GoPro accessory kit is on sale for $9 today with promo code O7YAH4ED.

If dry winter air is wreaking havoc on your sinuses, you can fight back with this Eufy (Anker’s new home division) humidifier.

The newly-released Humos Air 1.0 can run for over 24 hours with its one gallon tank, and can humidify a room with hot or cool mist, depending on the season. This just-launched product will typically sell for $50, but to commemorate its launch, you can get one for $40.

OXO makes some of the most popular kitchen accessories on the market, and three of their products are cheaper than ever today on Amazon. It should go without saying, but any of these would make a fine gift for the holidays.

You probably didn’t wake up today thinking “I want to buy a bread maker,” and yet here we are. The Cuisinart CBK-100 is one of the most popular bread makers on Amazon, and it’s never been cheaper than today’s $64.

The CBK-1000 can make loaves as large as two pounds, and includes 12 pre-programmed menu options, plus three crust darkness settings. If you buy it now, you’ll have enough time to get good at it before you start cooking for Christmas Eve.

If you want to dip your toes into the world of electric toothbrushes, Philips’ entry level Sonicare Essence line is an amazing value at $20 (after clipping the $5 coupon). I’ve been using this brush for years, and I still love it.

We saw this deal last month, but if you missed out, it’s back in stock today.

While you’re at it, stock up on spare brush heads with another $5 Amazon coupon.

With the launch of the new Oculus Touch controllers, it’s easier than ever to recommend the Oculus Rift (if you have a PC that can handle it, that is), and Amazon’s making the price a little more palatable with a bonus $100 gift card.

You’ll still pay the standard $599 out of pocket for the headset, but once you get the bonus gift card, you could use it to save 50% on the controllers. Or, you know, just spend it on anything else Amazon sells.

The Xbox One Elite controller is ridiculous and indulgent and...maybe actually worth it? It rarely goes on sale, but Amazon’s tossing in a $30 gift card when you buy it for $149 today. If you give the controller as a gift, but keep the $30 for yourself, don’t worry, we won’t tell.

Amazon makes its own bocce ball set, for some reason, and it’s down to an all-time low $27 today. To be clear, that price is for the full-sized 100mm set. The 90mm set, which is ideal for posers that can’t handle playing the sport the right way, is actually more expensive at the moment.

Whether your current mouse is giving you chronic wrist pain, or you just want to try something different, this 4.2 star rated wireless ergonomic vertical mouse from Anker is only $13 today. In addition to the clever design, it even comes with three adjustable DPI settings and forward/back buttons, which are pretty rare at this price level.

Cold brew coffee might not sound appealing in the winter, but that’s only if you conflate it with iced coffee, which is not the same thing. Cold brew is just a steeping process that results in less acidity, among other benefits, and you can enjoy it hot or cold all year ‘round. If you want to give it a shot, the Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker is the easiest way to get started, and it’s only $18 today.

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.

In case you missed it last week amidst the Black Friday craziness, you can still grab a pair of Bosch Insight wiper blades for $23 from Amazon today.

Just pick the two you need, add them to your cart, and the discount should appear automatically, assuming both were shipped and sold by Amazon.com. The deal even allows you to mix and match sizes, so you can almost certainly find a combination that will work for your car.

TENS (Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) massagers seem a bit like pseudoscience, but every time we post a deal on this thing, we hear nothing but rave reviews. In fact, I use one occasionally after exercising, and I’m pretty sure it helps reduce muscle pain. At the very least, it feels cool.

A few months ago, I bought an extra-long Lightning cable to run behind my couch cushions so I could comfortably charge my iPhone while I watched TV, and it was one of the better decisions I made this year. For $9, there’s no reason not to follow suit.

For just $4-$5 today, you can sip your drinks in style with a four pack of stainless steel drinking straws, either bent or straight. I own the bent ones, and use them for everything from Coke Zero to Moscow Mules. And don’t worry, they come with a little tube cleaner to help you wash them.

Victorinox’s Fibrox 8” chef’s knife is one of your favorite chef’s knives period, and by far the best value in the industry. It’s also the knife I’ve used almost every day for almost five years. Amazon has it for $28 right now, which is an absolute steal for the quality you’re getting. Needless to say, it would also be a great gift for anyone who enjoys cooking.

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.

For a certain kind of person, a new knife is the best stocking stuffer, and several models from Gerber on sale today, starting under $10.

While not a knife, you can also get the Gerber Shard keychain for just $4. It’s airline safe, and includes a bottle opener, a wire stripper, and a few screwdrivers.

Sugru is right up there with binder clips and the Raspberry Pi in Lifehacker’s pantheon of must-have gear, and you can stock up today with eight packs from Amazon for just $15, in the color combination of your choice. That’s not the best Sugru deal we’ve ever seen, but it’s pretty solid.

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.

If your Eneloop AA collection isn’t quite as big as it could be, you can supplement it with an 8-pack of AmazonBasics AAs for $17 today.

That’s an all-time low price, and $3 less than the equivalent Eneloop pack, and if you believe some reviewers, these may actually be rebranded Eneloops themselves. We can’t verify that claim (though like Eneloops, they were produced in Japan and pre-charged with solar energy, which seems really specific to be a coincidence), but whatever their origin, they have great reviews, and a stellar price tag.

Amazon’s Prime Pantry service has kicked off the month of December with a pair of special promotions, including a $10 discount exclusive to Kinja Deals readers!

First off, promo code PANTRY60KINJ will take $10 off any $60 Pantry order. It doesn’t matter what you buy, and it even works if you’ve used Pantry in the past. Easy peasy.

If the $6-per-box Prime Pantry delivery fee is scaring you off, it’s easy to avoid by including any five items from this page in your box. There are hundreds of eligible products from across every major category (including your favorite toilet paper), so you should have no trouble finding five that you were going to buy anyway. If you meet this requirement, you’ll see the $6 shipping fee waived at checkout.

In case $16 in savings wasn’t enough, if you have any Prime Pantry delivery credits in your account from choosing no-rush shipping on old Prime orders, that will still apply even if you got the free shipping promotion, giving you an extra $6 off.

So if you play your cards right here, you’ll pay far less for non-refrigerated food, laundry detergent, bathroom essentials, skin care, and home goods than you would at your local supermarket, and you won’t even have to leave the house to get it. That’s what they call a no-brainer.
