You don’t need fancy tools to enjoy the ones in your area, but two of our favorite bird feeders are on sale. If you needed an excuse to step away from your computer s…

We hope you shop small and local whenever it makes sense, but today’s a good day to show your support to the many businesses in your community and elsewhere.

You can shop at many stores virtually, including buying from singular people who make stuff in their homes. These are our favorite small businesses with an online presence, and we encourage you to search for others close to home. If you bu…

We track prices throughout the year so we know how good the sale prices are, but we’ve added a few new mattresses that we haven’t been able to track as closely yet.

Be sure to read our buying guides for the Best Mattresses You Can Buy Online, Best Organic Mattresses, and Best Mattresses for Side Sleepers.

Theraguns are some of the most popular massage guns, but they’re also the most expensive. If you’ve been coveting one, most of the Therabody catalog is discounted right now for Cyber Monday. It doesn’t bring them down to pennies, but it does knock about $100 off most of them. Read our Best Massage Guns guide for more recommendations.

“Our manufacturing process currently employs the use of an industry-standard pellet to seal the vacuum insulation at the base of our products; the sealing material includes some lead. Once sealed, this area is covered with a durable stainless steel layer, making it inaccessible to consumers. Rest assured that no lead is present on the surface of any Stanley product that comes into contact with the consumer nor the contents of the product. In the rare occurrence the base cap of a product comes of…

A few times a year, Sephora discounts nearly its entire stock, and that includes some of our favorite hair straighteners, blow dryers, and hot brushes. The caveat? You need to be a Sephora Beauty Insider, which is free to join, and the percentage off the sale price is based on which membership tier you fall into. Some brands aren’t included in the sale, like MAC and The Ordinary, and there are some limitations, like how you can buy only one Dyson and one Shark product.
