If you received some holiday gift cards or you’re still shopping for gifts for people you’ll see later in the year, post-Christmas sales offer plenty of opportunities to stretch your dollars. We’ve rounded up our favorite discounts below. Many of these sales will be extended for several days, but buying earlier generally ensures the best availability.
Special offer for Gear readers: Get one 1 year subscription to WIRED for $5 ($25 off). This includes unlimited access to WIRED.com and our print magazine (if desired). Subscriptions help fund the work we do every day.
Technical offers
The Pixel 6 Pro (9/10, WIRED recommends) has been on sale for a while, but the price has never dropped this low. Consider the newer Pixel 7 Pro first, but you’ll save hundreds on the 2021 model, which has a great 4X optical zoom camera, a 120Hz screen refresh rate, and a battery big enough to last more than an average of a full day. use.
Don’t want to spend that much? The long-running deal on the Pixel 6A (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has finally ended, but it’s still discounted to $368 ($81 off). Read more about these devices and their differences in our best Google Pixel phones guide.
This is one of the best prices we’ve seen for our favorite robot vacuum. The Roborock Q5+ (9/10, WIRED Recommends) cleans reliably and quietly. Battery life is great and the little robot will automatically return to the dock when it needs to charge or empty the dust bin.
This is our favorite wireless gaming mouse. Not only because it has a USB-C dongle that allows you to connect it to almost any modern device, but also because it is comfortable, really responsive and not overloaded with too many buttons.
Want to play chess but never have anyone to play with? This chessboard is the answer. You can connect Square Off Pro to the Square Off app via Bluetooth and then link your Chess.com or Lichess.org accounts to play against opponents around the world. The pieces don’t move themselves, but you’ll see what moves they make via the LEDs on the board, and then you can move their pieces to those positions.
As you’ll note in our best Apple Watch guide, the Series 7 is still a perfectly good buy, even if it’s a 2021 model. Just make sure you’re not paying prices close to the latest Series 8 , which retails for $499 for the mobile model. Well, you’re in luck. The Mobile Series 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a great smartwatch, especially if you want to stay connected to the Internet when your iPhone isn’t around. Don’t forget to factor the monthly data fee into your purchasing decision.
This is an older model, but we still like the Garmin Instinct Solar (8/10, WIRED recommends). It automatically recharges when you’re out in the sun, meaning the battery can last up to a week on a single charge. In addition to built-in GPS, it also has a wide range of metric tracking capabilities. We don’t like the bulky design, but if you don’t mind a large watch, this deal is a good way to save money. Our best Garmin watches guide can help you decide.
If you spend a lot of time in Adobe Photoshop, Premiere, Blender or other creative applications, then this is a great keyboard. The keys are raised and offer excellent tactile feedback, and you can plug in a USB-C dongle for a reliable connection. What makes it special are the macro keys on the left side of the board. With Logitech’s software, you can program these keys to activate custom shortcuts or even run scripts.
If you spend a lot of time on a motorcycle, it’s worth upgrading to a Bluetooth headset instead of a standard wireless headset. This Freecom model has a nice swivel wheel that makes it easy to use while using motorcycle gloves. Best of all, you can pair them with other Cardo headphones so you can talk to your friends while riding (up to half a mile away).
We love Nova Launcher, and so does the rest of the internet. It’s a good way to hack your Android smartphone and customize your home screen. If you have a new tablet or phone as a holiday gift and have been wanting to check it out, this sale price is generally one of the best we tend to see all year.
Offer on everything else
The Dyson V12 (8/10, WIRED recommends) fires a green laser at its base to help you see tiny dust particles you’d otherwise miss. Like most Dyson stick vacuums, it’s light and easy to maneuver, it’s easy to clean and you can even remove the battery. This is one of the best deals we’ve seen for it.
This sale comes around twice a year and generally offers the best prices you’ll find on Bath & Body Works products. Some highlights from the selection include 50 percent off soaps and hand sanitizers, plus body care on sale from $4. Shipping adds $7, but you may be able to choose free in-store pickup depending on your location.
There are hundreds of items to choose from in this sale, with discounts ranging up to half off a product’s normal price. The selection includes many styles of LL Bean’s iconic boots, which tend to be expensive and often not discounted. (This specific style is not for sale, but we recently published a love letter showing why LL Bean duck boots are awesome.)
This kettle is recommended in our Best Dorm Gear guide and as a cheaper alternative to our favorite electric kettle. It usually costs at least $100. It is reliable and has a gooseneck for precise pouring. Added bonus: Electric kettles don’t wake up the whole house with a piercing screech after your water boils. Amazon Prime members get free shipping on Woot.
Prime members can save on two-month subscriptions to various premium streaming channels, including Showtime, AMC+, Paramount+, Starz, Cinemax and others. These services typically cost between $7 and $11 per month, so you’re saving money no matter which one you go with. Just be sure to set a reminder to avoid automatic renewal if you don’t want subsequent charges after the trial ends.
The holidays are over, but the kids still have a few days to go crazy. Restock the family game cupboard with this sale and save on classics like Uno, Jenga, Candy Land and more. Add two items to your cart and the cheapest price will drop even more.
Tentree loungewear is comfortable and sustainably made. The brand is carbon neutral and highlights deep notes in its materials, but our favorite part is the free tree planting. Each item sold comes with a code. Pay it off and the brand will plant 10 trees in your honor. We’ve loved everything we’ve tested from the brand, but if you don’t know where to start, check out the Atlas Sweatpants and Highline Wool Crew Sweater for men. They are soft and comfortable and the shape stays all day.
Products from AmazonBasics are generally reliable (YMMV) and extremely diverse. The private label can be found on everything from thumb grips to charging cables and gadgets. Maybe you need a bed frame or some new plates. This sale features both, plus several pages worth of other products to browse. Prices start at around two dollars.
This is one of the best gifts for people who are constantly cold. The beanie is incredibly soft and warm, and it’s also sustainably made. We also love other accessories from Girlfriend Collective. All of this is on sale for at least 30 per cent off, thanks to the brand’s Boxing Day sale. Simply add items to your cart to see the discount reflected at checkout. You’ll get a higher percentage discount if you spend more — 40 percent off orders over $200 and 50 percent off orders over $300.
Lush makes good-smelling, long-lasting beauty and body care products. His offerings are often expensive and don’t go on sale often. This Boxing Day sale is an opportunity to save half off the normal price on all sorts of goodies, including a variety of the brand’s popular bath bombs.
