Gift Guide: Cyber Monday

It’s Black Friday! I’ve never been one to do that – the one time I did, I wound up getting a mani-pedi away from the hustle and bustle – but Cyber Monday? Sign me up. In anticipation of the amazing deals available, many stores have been releasing information about what their sales will be. I’ve pulled together a gift guide to help you navigate the best sales out there. According to Deal News, Cyber Monday is best for buying laptops, travel, kitchen products, and shoes. I’m going cover several stores in particular that include these items, as well as other products that they have that will be on sale.

As a reminder, I strongly suggest signing up for Ebates. It’s an extension that automatically looks for coupons and cashback when you shop. Some stores have up to 10% cashback! Every quarter they give you the cash you’ve earned from online shopping. If you use my link and shop, you’ll get $10. (For the record, I will also get money for referring you.) Sign up here.

Looking to get amazing deals without dealing with the stores on Black Friday? Check out these Cyber Monday gifts! I've rounded up stores with amazing deals so you can shop them, either for yourself or for other people.

Amazon

Notes – Prime members will get the best deals, and there will be Lightening Deals, which is when some sales are only for a few hours. Additionally, there will be amazing deals on some of Amazon’s products, which you can see below. According to Deal News, Cyber Monday is best for buying laptops, travel, kitchen products, and shoes.

Specific Products – Amazon Echo Dot: $40 (20% off); Amazon Fire HD: $60 (33% off); HP Envy Wireless All-in-One Photo Printer: $50 (50% off); Sony Extra Bass Bluetooth Headphones: $88 (32% off); and all TVs

Gift Guide: Cyber Monday Gifts

Amazon Echo Dot | HP Envy Wireless All-in-One Photo Printer | Amazon Fire HD | Playstation 4 Slim 1TB Console ($200, 33% off)| Sonos Speaker ($150, 25% off) | Amazon Fire Stick ($40, connect your TV with streaming sites!) | Sony Extra Bass Bluetooth Headphones

J. Crew Factory

Notes – There will be at least 50% off everything at J. Crew Factory! There will also be free shipping once you spend over $100.

Specific Products – women’s flannel shirts: $25 (65% off); men’s solid lambswool crewneck sweaters: $25 (59% off); women’s puffer vests: $35 (57% off); men’s flannel shirts: $20 (66% off)

Gift Guide: Cyber Monday Gifts

Target

Notes – For the last two years, everything at Target has been 15% off on Cyber Monday, and they start their sale on Sunday. There is up to 25% off K’NEX, Mega Blocks, and Magformers. Also, they have free shipping on everything this holiday season!

Specific Products (some of these prices are not as low as they actually will be because I’m writing this 5 days before Cyber Monday and it’s hard to see the exact deal) – Samsung Ultra HD TV: $400 (33% off); KitchenAid Stand Mixer: $200 (60% off); Keurig K525: $150 (12% off); Nutri Ninja Auto iQ: $90 (31% off)

Gift Guide: Cyber Monday Gifts

KitchenAid Stand Mixer | Samsung Galaxy Tablet | American Tourister luggage (spend $100 on luggage and get $25 off | Nutri Ninja Auto | Keurig K525

Best Buy

Notes – Like Target, Best Buy starts their sale on Sunday. But don’t hesitate to buy because their sales in individual products only last 1 day. That also means that there will be some sales on Monday that there weren’t on Sunday.

Specific Products – Dell UltraSharp TV: $250 (29% off); Dell Inspiron 15.6″ Laptop: $300 (25% off); Beats by Dr. Dre: $160 (58% off); Acer 11.6″ Touch Laptop: $180 (46% off)

The most common question I get about sharing my ex The most common question I get about sharing my experience with chronic illness is "How do you deal with it?" These 3 quotes are sources of inspiration and indicative of how I do it. ⁣
⁣
1. "Guard your time fiercely. Be generous with it, but be intentional about it." - Davd Duchemin⁣
I am SO intentional with my time. Even when I (rarely) do spur-of-the-moment fun things, I'm doing mental calculations of how to make it happen. ⁣
⁣
2. "Find out who you are and do it on purpose." - Dolly Parton⁣
That's what my blog and advocacy work is. I figured out who I am: someone who helps other patients, who shares her story, who tries to change the world. And I'm doing it on purpose. ⁣
⁣
3. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but power, love, and self-discipline." - 2 Timothy 1:7 ⁣
I will be afraid some times (we all will) but my spirit is not one of fear or timidity. My spirt of power, love, and self-discipline enables me to keep fighting for myself and others. ⁣
