Black Friday has come and gone, but the deals have stuck around. You ate your turkey. You argued with your family. You got the big door buster deals. But now comes the real shopping. Cyber Monday (which has already started) is the wild west when it comes to deal and you can get some of the best bargains of the year if you know where to look. Whether you need a new computer, solar generator, or whatever else, we’re here to help you get the best possible bargain.

Our editors have spent weeks searching and curating the absolute best Cyber Monday deals on everything from TVs to air fryers.
Our team spends hundreds of collective hours searching and evaluating every deal we can find online. That includes everything from big high-profile door busters to that sneakily great deal on an extension cord. We use tools like Keepa and Camelcamelcamel in order to view price trajectory over time. We also monitor the most popular products that are selling across retailers in case a new deal has popped upāhigh-profile deals like that can sell out quickly. Our focus is on well-made and reviewed products for prices that make sense. That means not everything will be half-off (or more), but they’re worth it.
While we’d be just giddy if you bought all of your Black Friday purchases through our posts, we know that’s not practical (and we forgive you). So, here are some general Black Friday tips to help you get the best deals across the board.
Companies are eager to get you into their retail infrastructure, and subscription models do that better than anything else. And while it may feel a little odd to pledge your allegiance to an online retailer, it can really pay off. Walmart’s Walmart+ program (which is just $50 for the first year right now, down from $100) allows members access to the best deals several hours before they go out to the public. That could be the difference between snagging a new TV and seeing the dreaded “out of stock” warning. Amazon Prime offers access to exclusive deals that non-Prime members will never get. Sure, it comes with a little cost up-front, but these programs can make financial sense if you do the math.

This vacuum is sold out at other retailers, but you can still find it for its best price directly from Shark.
