The only deals worth shopping from Apple, KitchenAid, Beats and more

Amazon Black Friday Week — the mega retailer’s lead-in to the biggest shopping weekend of the year — kicked off this week. And you know what that means? It’s time to get some holiday shopping done before the tryptophan kicks in. So when everyone else is scrambling to score Black Friday deals post-Turkey Day, you can kick back and relax knowing you snagged every item on your wishlist before it sold out (and for less). Plus, getting a head start means more time to enjoy all of those leftovers, which is arguably the most important component here!

What can you score for a steal, like, right now? How does a pair of Apple AirPods Pro for a record-low price sound? (You’ll win the holiday gifting game with those for sure!) On the home front, the viral stain-buster known as the Bissell Little Green Cleaner is down to $81 (from $124), and our favorite Keurig is on rare markdown as well. Or maybe you’ve been eyeing a Peloton bike for the new year, but are waiting for it to go on sale. Today’s the day, friend!

Now, as professional deal hunters, we’ll be the first to tell you that not all deals are worth your time or hard-earned money. (We’d argue that most are meh.) To ensure we’re only sharing the most legit discounts on the web with you, our team of shopping editors is hard at work tracking price histories across retailers. With that in mind, we’ll be updating this list from now until the mashed potatoes are long gone, so keep checking back to see what new goodies we uncover. Happy shopping!

All-time low price alert! There’s a reason folks are gaga for the latest model of these top-rated earbuds — many reasons, in fact. For starters, they offer rich, crisp sound and superior noise cancellation, allowing you to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more without outside commotion getting in the way. This model lets you control the volume simply by swiping the stem, and you’ll receive four pairs of silicone tips in different sizes for customized comfort.

Our tech editor named these “best wireless earbuds overall,” saying, “What you get here is even better ANC, a bump in battery life, extra-small ear tips for users with smaller ears and an adaptive-audio mode that adjusts noise-cancellation and transparency modes based on the sounds around you. Meanwhile, Apple’s charging case now has a speaker (for use with Find My) and a USB-C port in place of Lightning (the better to match with the USB-C iPhone 15).”

This might not seem like the biggest discount, but Apple products are so sought after, any markdown is one we’ll take! (And this one’s very rare.)

Yahoo Senior Tech Deals Writer Chris McGraw says, “Think this is just a slightly larger version of your phone? Think again. With a 3:2 aspect ratio compared to the iPhone’s 2:1, the iPad Mini is much wider and, for those who use their tablets to read, can fit more text and feels more like a book or magazine in your hand. Speaking of fitting in your hand, it’s much less cumbersome than the full-size iPad, making it great for travel or slipping into a backpack for your commute.”

Never lose your luggage, purse, car — anything, really — again. Just toss one of these smart tags inside the item you want to track, and you’ll be alerted of its whereabouts via your phone. 

The deal on this 4-pack brings each tag down to $18 (they typically retail for about $25-$30 a pop). Grab a few for your, er, forgetful family members!

This small-but-mighty sucker, a viral fave for a while now, targets unsightly spots, minimizes odors and more on both carpets and upholstery in a perfectly portable way. At under 10 pounds, it’s on the lighter side for a deep cleaner, and it’s versatile enough to use on furniture — even car interiors. Plus, the 15-foot cord is long enough to keep you from having to find a new outlet every five minutes.

This set comes with the Little Green, a 3-inch tough stain tool, a HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, a spraying crevice tool, a trial size 8-ounce Spot and Stain with Febreze formula and a one-year limited warranty. You can snag it for nearly 35% off, which is just about as low as it usually goes on sale for.

A top-selling Roomba that’s nearly 40% off — its all-time lowest price? We’ll take two! This gizmo will zap up all of that dust and debris on your floor while you relax on the sofa — nothing wrong with that. It runs for up to 120 minutes before heading back to its charging dock, and you can even schedule cleanings via the app.

Fast food crumbs taking over your ride? Fear not — it’s this super-strong handvac to the rescue, according to Yahoo Senior Home and Garden Editor Jessica Dodell-Feder, who tested it out. 

“Like many DeWalt tools, this cordless vacuum cleaner is reliable and powerful,” she says. “I was surprised at how easy it was to maneuver considering its exceptionally strong suction.” 

When Dodell-Feder tested this vacuum, it was a pricey $179 — now, at 45% off, it’s down to what appears to be its best price of 2024. Oh, and you can snag batteries and a charger for 60% off as well!

The fact that this versatile appliance (which functions as both a vacuum and mop) is down to its all-time best price is enough for it to warrant a space in our carts. But throw in a Martha Stewart endorsement, and we’re tempted to buy two!

The queen of all things home recently sang its praises in an unsponsored Instagram post, calling it the “best new home appliance.” She added, “The design is simple, the parts easy to clean and anyone can use it … Rather than sweeping (which raises dust), rather than vacuuming and then mopping, this machine does it all!”

Ready to upgrade your listening experience? These wildly popular earbuds are down to their lowest price ever, so grab a pair for you and another for the audiophile on your list.

Equipped with features like active noise canceling and transparency modes, you’ll be able to choose how much of the outside world you’d like to tune out while enjoying playlists and audiobooks. Plus, these babies are sweat- and water-resistant, meaning you can take ’em to the gym, and you’ll be treated to up to 24 hours of listening time via the charging case.

Never fight with your family members over power outlets again. This electrifying gadget boasts five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their devices all at once. Oh, and this top seller is so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor. 

No, it’s not the most massive discount, but we’ve yet to see it on sale for less. Makes a cool stocking stuffer!

Senior Tech Deals Writer Chris McGraw says, “Think all QLED is the same? Think again. Samsung’s Mini-LED tech, featured in its Neo QLED models, takes backlighting to the next level. Unlike standard QLED, Mini-LEDs deliver precise control over brightness zones, which means you get sharper contrast and deeper black levels. This setup lets you enjoy vibrant colors and impressive detail, even in darker scenes. If you’re after a TV that can handle both bright and dimly lit rooms with ease, Neo QLED’s Mini-LED is the way to go.”

This is close to as low as we’ve seen this model since July, just sayin’!

Whether you’re due for some new headrests yourself or want to spiffy up your guest room before the holidays, you’d be wise to snag this popular pair while it’s nearly 80% off. 

Filled with a lofty down alternative stuffing, these plush pillows are moisture-wicking and promote airflow for a more comfortable slumber. They’re also machine washable and on sale for about as low as they’ve ever been.

Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this No. 1 bestseller is cordless for even more convenience, and the on-page coupon brings it down to within a few dollars of its best price yet. 

One Yahoo editor gave it a try, saying, “While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn’t just ‘go off’ if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It’s also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done.”

Whether you’re stowing away shorts and sundresses in the winter or puffer coats and comforters in the summer, these roomy storage bags will keep everything organized from season to season.

These popular fabric-softening balls can be reused for over a thousand laundry loads. They’re made entirely of wool, and not only will they make your washables plush, they’ll shorten the drying time in the process. What’s more, they’ll save you tons of money on not-so-eco-friendly dryer sheets. 

Consider them our favorite laundry hack — and at just over two bucks apiece, you’re getting these No. 1 bestsellers for one of their best prices of the year.

Dodell-Feder named this the “best Keurig coffee maker” out of all of the models she tested, calling it “a reliable Keurig that delivers everything you’d want from a single-cup coffee maker and more.”

She adds, “It makes four cup sizes (8, 10 and 12 ounces, and a 2-ounce shot), the buttons are clear and intuitive and it offers an ‘over ice’ option that automatically adjusts brew temperature for less-watery iced coffee. Plus, it comes with a bonus for anyone who likes lattes, cappuccinos and other espresso-style drinks: an excellent standalone milk frother.”

It’s only dipped lower than it’s current price by a few dollars, and doesn’t often go on sale, so you’ll want to grab it while it’s nearly 30% off.

We have entered the prime baking season, and at 4.5 quarts, this top-seller can hold enough dough to make up to eight dozen cookies at a time (though it won’t take up much room in your kitchen). This is the brand I (Britt) use in my own home kitchen, and it comes with a beater, dough hook and whisk attachments for making practically any baked good under the sun. 

It’ll give your arms a break by doing all of the mixing, and you can let it run while you prep other ingredients. This is as low as it’s been since April, so scoop it up ahead of the holidays!

We don’t “wing” it here at Yahoo Life: We put 15 models to the test and awarded this one “Best Air Fryer Overall.” According to Yahoo Life writer Kristin Granero, who conducted the tests, this one “boasts substantial cooking room, minimal required maintenance and an easy-to-master learning curve, all while looking non-clunky.” 

Its LED display has five cooking functions to choose from — air-fry, roast, bake, broil and warm — as well as five preset options for popular foods like fries, wings, frozen snacks and vegetables. Other cool components include its interior light and see-through doors, which allow you to keep an eye on your food while it cooks, as well as a “toss reminder” that’ll alert you when it’s time to flip your food in the basket. This is as low as we’ve ever seen it marked down to.

Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. The containers are made of glass — but not just any glass. We’re talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles. 

Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what’s packed inside, it’s oven-safe up to 1,040°F. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won’t get to right away. At just over $3 per container, this is a fabulous value.

Henckels has been crafting knives for over a century, so the brand knows a thing or two about what makes a quality set. This bestselling set comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need: a 3-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, an 8-inch chef’s knife and an 8-inch bread knife. Also included: six 4.5-inch steak knives, a professional honing steel, kitchen shears and a hardwood knife block. Whew! 

This collection is majorly marked down from its list price of $345, though we’ve never actually seen it shoot that high. Still this deal beats the typical $150 we’ve seen it going for of late.

Our very own holiday-shopping doyenne, Gifting Editor Amanda Garrity, has plenty of great suggestions, including this fun option, which is down to one of its best prices of all time.

“Invite Elsa, Tiana, Ariel, Mirabel and Moana to your holiday table,” she says. “Build a small scene for each princess — including Ariel’s undersea palace — then flip over the box to play the built-in board game with up to five other Disney fans.”

In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin has never crossed your mind, take it from a slew of Amazon shoppers — it’s effective! This top-rated serum was purchased by over 80,000 people in the past month alone, thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects. Snail mucin not only helps boost collagen and elastin for a firmer look and feel, but it can also gently exfoliate for a smoother texture while also soothing the skin. Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots. 

At nearly 50% off, this is the lowest it’s been since September. Check out our Beauty Editor’s full CosRx review for more.

When Oprah says she likes something, we know it’s gonna be good — so it’s no surprise that this No. 1 bestselling jacket (aka “The Amazon Coat”) has acquired a massive fan base. 

It graced the media queen’s Favorite Things list in 2019 and features a fleece-lined hood, cozy down filling and about a zillion pockets for storing small essentials. It’s also much more chic than many puffer coats, and at 45% off, it’s down to its best price in years.

Garrity says, “I know, I know, gloves aren’t exactly the most novel gift idea, but they’re one of those things that we all need to refresh every couple of winters. These fleece-lined favorites are just as practical as they are pretty: One Amazon shopper raved that ‘the fur cuff is perfect and looks expensive,’ while another mentioned that they ‘kept my hands warm during my trip to the northeast and in cold weather.’ The best of both worlds, eh?”

That 66% discount isn’t too shabby, either…
