October Prime Day dominated the headlines this week, but as a deals expert I'm excited that the Best Buy Techtober sale is still going strong. Yes, Amazon offered a lot of great deals, but Best Buy price matched many of them — and in a few occasions undercut Amazon.

Best Buy's sale lasts through Sunday and my favorite deal right now has MacBooks on sale from $699. As an Apple user, Best Buy has always been one of my go-to retailers for Apple gear and this sale proves why. If you're on a budget, the M2 MacBook Air for $699 is unbeatable. I love this deal because the config on sale sports 16GB of RAM instead of 8GB, which means you'll get more life out of this system. Otherwise, the 13-inch and 15-inch M4-based MacBook Airs are at all-time price lows.

As part of its Techtober sale, Best Buy also has kitchen appliances on sale from $26. The sale includes coffee machines, water filters, air fryers, and more. Below I've rounded up my favorite Best Buy deals this weekend. Remember, these deals are all good through Sunday. After that, we may not see them again till Thanksgiving. For more savings, see our Best Buy promo codes page.
