Best Buy is having an epic sale — here's my top 17 deals
Best Buy is discounting everything from MacBooks to PS5
As somebody that tracks deals for a living, when it comes to finding the best tech discounts, Best Buy is usually my first port of call. The electronics retailer regularly offers some of the biggest savings on popular products from OLED TVs to Apple MacBooks.
While some of its retailing rivals often stick to slashing prices during the working week, Best Buy often opts to run its very best deals over the weekend. And the retailer's latest weekend sale has been extended into the working week. Currently, Best Buy has a large selection of seriously compelling discounts that include big money off some high-rated devices such as the MacBook Air M2 ($150 off) and TG's favorite PS5 SSD, the WD_Black SN850X ($145 off).
Thanks to this Best Buy sale you don’t need to wait until the seasonal sales or Black Friday deals to start saving on big purchases like a powerful gaming laptop or a sizable TV. But with literally hundreds of deals to sort through, picking the real savings from the bogus offers can be a little challenging. Which is why I’ve rounded up my 15 favorite deals below. Plus, check our roundup of all Best Buy coupon codes as these could save you even more money.

The 55-inch model of this excellent OLED TV is now on sale for $1,199 over the weekend. I flagged this deal because the LG C2 offers deep inky blacks, amazing detail, and it's a great gaming TV. In fact, we named it one of the best TVs of 2023. So the chance to save $100 on this shouldn't be ignored, even if it's not quite the biggest discount we've ever spotted for this model.

Dead Space (PS5): was $69 now $44 @ Best Buy
Dead Space is one of my personal favorite games of 2023 (so far). This from-the-ground-up remake of the PS3/360 original looks absolutely stunning, but even more impressively is how well the gameplay has held up. Exploring the creepy halls of the Ishimura is just as terrifying as it was more than a decade ago, and the smart tweaks to sections that haven't aged so gracefully are very welcome. This is the definitive Dead Space.
