The Best Buy Member Deals Days sale is officially underway. The week-long sale includes discounts on various categories, but it's the Chromebook sales that have me doing a double take.

For a limited time, Best Buy has Chromebooks on sale from $139. It's a huge sale with budget models under $299 and more powerful models in the $399 range. One of the best deals is the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 11 for $349.

If you're not familiar with Chromebooks, they're great machines for school, work, or everyday use at home. Some of the best Chromebooks offer the perfect balance of performance, efficiency and value — without breaking the bank. We wouldn't recommend them for hard-core gamers, but they're reliable for streaming and other Web-based tasks. Below I've rounded up my favorite affordable Chromebooks in Best Buy's sale. Keep scrolling to check them out.
