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)

Gift Guide: Cyber Monday Gifts

Beats by Dr. Dre | Canon Powershot ($120, 15% off) | Dell Inspiron 15.6″ Laptop | Acer 11.6″ Touch Laptop | Samsung Kids Galaxy Tablet ($80, 39% off) | Fossil Q Smartwatch ($127, 50% off) | Garmin Vivosmart ($100, 39% off) | Bose SoundTrue Ultra In-Ear Headphones ($80, 39% off) | Canon EOS Rebel T6 DSLR Camera with 2 lenses ($550, 27%)

FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]? As FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]?

As with all things, what’s true for me might not be true for others. I’m sure there are plenty of RA patients who do respond well to supplements; I’m just not one of them. 

Additionally, at one point, I refer to being on chemo since 2012. As always, the chemo I’m referring to is Rituxan, which is my RA treatment. I do not have cancer nor have I ever claimed to. 

Video: Kate talks to the camera. Text at the beginning reads “FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]?” and other text later reads “*24” to correct when she says “symptoms for 21 years”. There are captions.

Week 19 of #2026Weekly I’m not going to lie - my Week 19 of #2026Weekly 

I’m not going to lie - my life now focuses even more on maintaining my body. Trying to avoid foot surgery + keep my bone density up so I don’t break another bone for a while on top of all the other things I do to manage my 10+ illnesses … it’s a lot of work. I did go to actual work this week lol but my camera roll is all chronic illness stuff this week. 

1️⃣ The machine that will hopefully prevent surgery!!! Every day, I do 40 minutes of this ultrasound machine (20 min on 1 fracture, 20 min on the other) and it will speed up healing 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 
2️⃣ Continuing my exercise routine per my endocrinologist. Up to 30 minutes of Pilates 4 days a week … and since I don’t do exercises requiring pressure on my feet, the cast comes off.
