Every year, we’re deluged with Cyber Monday deals, which is good news for those of us who love snagging items at a discount. But it can all get overwhelming, from the sheer number of products to sift through — and that’s especially true at Amazon. The mega-merchant has been offering steep discounts since a week before Black Friday, and the deals have been surprisingly good. (I bought a few things on sale over the weekend, including our favorite electric toothbrush, as well as a few holiday gifts for my little cousins.) But not everything is a slam-dunk — so to find the best items currently on sale, I’ve kept an eye out for products we’ve tested and reviewed across different categories, from home goods and kitchen appliances to tech and workout gear to toys and board games. I’ve also made sure that just about everything here is at least 20 percent off (and if the discount is lower, it’s because I rarely see it on-sale). Cyber Monday is also a great time to take get some holiday shopping done, so I’d recommend keeping an eye out for your giftees as you browse the deals.
To make it easier, I’ve organized this post by product category, and you can use the links below to jump ahead to the subsection that speaks to you.
I’m done updating this post for the day, but you can shop these deals tonight before they expire — some might even last into tomorrow — but price and stock may vary. Check out all of our Cyber Monday coverage, and stay updated with more sales coverage by signing up for our email newsletter.

Beauty and personal care
Now’s a great time to snag some of the best-selling beauty items recommended by the Strategist, such as moisturizers, sunscreens, and grooming items. (Some highlights include a much-beloved snail-mucin essence and our favorite retinol moisturizer that’s over half-off.)
Home
I’ve spotted a good number of home items on sale, like our favorite foam pillows and mattress toppers, sheet sets, as well as space heaters, fans, and air purifiers we’ve reviewed this year. If you’re looking for a vacuum upgrade, you’re in luck — a few of our favorites (from brands such as Dyson and Shark) are currently up to 40 percent off. And, of course, you can’t forget the artificial Christmas trees.
Kitchen
If you’re on the hunt for a particular kitchen appliance, you can probably find it discounted during Amazon’s Cyber Monday. There’s the Rolls-Royce of coffee-makers from Technivorm, a meat thermometer beloved by Tom Colicchio (which also makes a great gift for a home cook), and a do-it-all chef’s knife for over 30 percent off.
Clothing and apparel
A lot of our favorite women’s clothing is on sale right now, including several picks from the Strategist Womenswear 100. There are the classic Levi’s and Orolay coat, but we also found some deals on brands you wouldn’t expect to find on Amazon, like Madewell and AYR.
Toys and games
While I’m spotting lots of toys and games that would make great holiday gifts, I’m also seeing some of our favorite board games on sale — some of them 40 to 50 percent off.
Baby
I’ll be updating this section with the best deals on baby items, from car seats to baby monitors and nursing products.
Health and fitness
I like to take advantage of these Cyber Monday promotions by saving big on at-home fitness equipment, which tends to be pricey. I’ve spotted some of the best items we’ve reviewed on sale, such as an adjustable kettlebell, a vibrating foam roller, and Peloton bikes.
Tech
Cyber Monday is historically associated with tech deals, and there’s no shortage of them up for grabs right now on Amazon, from speakers to digital picture frames to cameras. (The Fujifilm instant camera is especially popular with teenagers this year.)
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
