Those of us who are responsible, decent human beings are in store for at least a few weeks of isolation as we all try to slow down the spread of COVID-19 infections and “flatten the curve.” After all, that’s the only chance we have of ensuring hospitals aren’t stretched too thin so that people who need urgent care can get it. Since we’re going to be spending so much time indoors, many of us are going to want to stock up on new gadgets and gizmos to help us work or just pass the time. Now is definitely the time to do it, while nonessential items are still shipping. Amazon is already running out of deals, so we can likely expect nonessential shipping times to start slipping fairly soon.

Our Deals team has already told you about tons of great deals available right now. Highlights include the $350 Bissell ICONpet cordless stick vacuum that’s better than a Dyson for $199, tons of deals on best-selling Bose speakers, the $40 Fire TV Stick for just $22.99 for Prime members, $5 off certified refurbished Fire TV Stick 4K players, one last chance to get the crazy wireless camera that lets your smartphone see anywhere for just $31.99, some great Philips Hue deals including $50 multicolor A19 LED smart light bulbs for $37.70 each, the awesome $240 Instant Vortex Plus 7-in-1 Air Fryer Oven for just $107.50, shockingly good $50 wireless noise cancelling headphones for only $24.99 with coupon code L5G769UL, and more. There’s another big sale going on right now at Best Buy though, and we wanted to make sure we brought it to your attention. It’s a 3-day sale that lasts from now until midnight on Sunday, and you can shop the entire thing on Best Buy’s special sale page.
