I vetted the 19 best holiday deals you can get at Amazon, Walmart and more — starting at $9

iPhone SE 2022: free w/ unlimited + new line @ Verizon
New and existing members can get the iPhone SE 2022 for free when you open a new unlimited line. That's $429 off and one of the best deals we've seen. (No trade-in is required for this deal). In our iPhone SE 2022 review we said it delivers best-in-class performance and great photos for an affordable price, if you can live with a small screen. It's powered by Apple's A15 Bionic chip, which is the same CPU powering the iPhone 13 line. Other features include a 4.7-inch Retina HD display (1334 x 750), Touch ID support, 12MP wide/rear camera, 7MP FaceTime camera, 5G connectivity, and up to 15-hour battery life.

Crocs sale: Crocs from $9 @ Walmart
I've never worn a pair of Crocs, but I know plenty of people who swear by them. Right now Walmart is knocking up to 50% off select men's, women's and children's Crocs. After discount, deal prices start from $9. The sale includes all-terrain clogs, slip-resistant clogs, sandals, and more. Note that Crocs.com is taking 60% off, but the styles on sale are different.

My first Black Friday purchase of 2023 was the Brooklinen Hardcore Sheet Bundle. Much to my chagrin — but your advantage — Brooklinen is now offering an even more aggressive sale of up to 60% off. The sale includes sheets, bath towels, robes, loungewear and more. The Brooklinen Hardcore Sheet Bundle is now on sale from $174 (twin).

Toys: buy one, get one 50% off @ Target
Target is running a BOGO deal on select toys. Buy one and you can get a second item of equal or less value for 50% off. Games and puzzles, Play-Doh, Nerf, Paw Patrol, Mario and more brands are included in this sale. Note that Amazon and Walmart have similar sales, but on different brands/toys.

Levi's jeans: deals from $14 @ Walmart
Walmart is dropping the price of Levi's apparel down to just $14 during its latest sale. The sale includes Levi's winter boots, sweatshirts, hoodies, t-shirts, backpacks, and more. In most cases, it beats the direct sale at Levi's, which takes 30% off select items.

Xbox Series X Mini Fridge: was $88 now $39 @ Walmart
Yes, there is such a thing as the Xbox Series X mini fridge. It can hold up to 8 cans of drink and comes with LED lights and a USB port for charging devices. Once hard to find in stock, it's now on sale at Walmart.

Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip: was $79 now $39 @ Amazon
This smart plug power strip is one of the best smart plugs you can buy. It lets you independently control six outlets and three USB ports using Alexa, Google Assistant, or the Kasa smart app. You’ll also be able to set device schedules and timers, plus monitor how much energy each device is using. It's now at its lowest price ever. 

TV sale: deals from $49 @ Best Buy
Best Buy has smart TVs on sale for as low as $49. (That's the same starting price we saw on Black Friday). Keep in mind, the cheap TVs tend to be smaller, 1080p models (which are more suitable for a children's room or guest room). However, the sale also includes larger sets. These are among the cheapest TVs we've seen from Best Buy. By comparison, Amazon is offering a similar sale with prices from $64.
Price check: from $64 @ Amazon

Eve Light Strip: was $79 now $49 @ Amazon
The Eve Light Strip lets you deck your home with LEDs that can be controlled via your iPhone, iPad, Siri, or the Eve app. It supports HomeKit Adaptive Lighting to automatically adjust your room's color temperature throughout the day. The 6.6-foot strip can be cut to size or extended up to 32.8 feet with additional strips. (The Eve Light Strip Extension is on sale for $40 at Amazon).

Ring Video Doorbell: was $99 now $54 @ Amazon
The wireless Ring Video Doorbell comes with 1080p video recording, motion detection, and night vision. It's also got a rechargeable battery and can be installed without much hassle. In our Ring Video doorbell (2nd gen) review, we called it the best video doorbell you can get for under $100. 

Sleep Number sale: BOGO 50% off @ Sleep Number
Keep warm and cozy this winter thanks to Sleep Number's holiday savings event. Currently, when you buy a faux fur throw, you'll get another one for 50% off. The sale also includes pillows, such as the ComfortFit Pillow which is BOGO 50% off. Prices start from $59 for the faux throws (pictured).

Blink Outdoor 4: was $119 now $71 @ Amazon
The Blink Outdoor is a fully wireless home security camera that records video in 1080p, lets you store video locally (or in the cloud), and has a two-year battery life. The Editor's Choice camera holds a spot in our list of the best home security cameras. It's currently on sale at its lowest price ever. 

Nespresso sale: deals from $99 @ Amazon
If you want the convenience of a capsule machine, but don’t want to sacrifice on the quality of your coffee, Amazon is having a massive sale on Nespresso machines. After discount, prices start at just $99, which is the lowest price I've ever seen for a Nespresso machine. The least-expensive machine is the Nespresso Vertuo Pop Plus Deluxe on sale for $99 (was $149). In our hands-on, we said it's anything but entry level where performance is concerned. What sets the Vertuo range apart from Nespresso's other pod coffee machines is that it lets you brew a much wider range of coffee styles, aside from a single or double shot espresso.

Patagonia Box Quilted Hoody: was $249 now $123 @ Patagonia
50% off! This versatile hooded jacket is windproof and features a box quilting design, which reduces bulk and creates an effective heat-trapping surface. It's available in various sizes in Tidepool Blue or Dusky Brown.

MacBook Pro 13" (M2/256GB): was $1,299 now $1,099 @ B&H Photo

The 2022 MacBook Pro sports a 13.3-inch Retina display (2560 x 1600), Apple's M2 CPU w/ 10 core GPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD. In our MacBook Pro 13-inch M2 review, we said it delivers mind-blowing performance and an epic 18:20 battery life. Note that it hit $999 last month, but this is still a solid price (and a deal that sells out fast).
