I convinced my dad to buy Bose QuietComfort headphones — now they're $100 off for Father's Day
He placed an order that day, and now I look forward to visiting my parents not just to see them (although, that's the primary reason, of course), but also to use my dad's Bose QuietComfort headphones.
As outlined in our Bose QuietComfort headphones review, the cans are extremely impressive. On top of ANC so good that no other brand even comes close, the headphones sound excellent in every single genre. And now? You can save a massive $100 on Bose QuietComfort headphones.
The QuietComfort headphones are on sale in the following colors: black (pictured), dark blue, lilac, light blue, beige, and white. Green is the only color not on sale, which is a shame because it's actually gorgeous.
Price check: $249 @ Best Buy | $249 @ Walmart
I've personally used the Bose QuietComfort headphones, and I can admit that $349 is expensive for what you get. However, with $100 off, these headphones are competitively priced.
Considering that most excellent Bluetooth headphones hover around $400 these days (what has the world come to?), $249 is about as low as you're going to get for Bose.
What makes Bose gear so good is its ANC. My colleague Nikita described Bose's ANC better than anyone else: it's so good you feel lonely.
Thankfully, when music sounds this good you can overlook the fact you're the only one listening. The QuietComfort headphones are bass-driven, with loud, groovy thumps across most genres. I'd recommend these headphones for serious bass lovers, or if you listen to genres like rock, hip-hop, or house. While I've never thought the QuietComfort headphones sound anything but fantastic, they genuinely excel with bassy tracks.
However, you can also adjust and create custom EQs with the Bose Music app, should you want a little less bass in your listening.
The Bose QuietComfort headphones come recommended for a reason, and at just $249, they're an absolute steal. I convinced my dad to buy these and he loves them, but now I wish I'd bought them for Father's Day instead!

Walmart Restocked Texas Instruments Graphing Calculator at Record Low for Back-to-School
Thankfully, we don't live in a time when solving one math problem could take all day. Of course, that might have been satisfying in its own way, but considering how we have more resources now, it just makes more sense to use tools that save time and help you learn more effectively. That's exactly what the Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus graphing calculator does, and right now, you can grab it for just $87, which is $52 off the regular price on Walmart. Given how long you'll use it and how much easier it can make your studies, that's one solid deal, but most likely a limited-time one. See at Walmart It doesn't just crunch and punch numbers. You get more than a dozen preloaded apps that can cover subjects like algebra, geometry, statistics, biology, physics, and even finance. We're talking apps like Cabri Jr for interactive geometry and Inequality Graphing for comparing multiple inequalities at once. And since it's a graphing calculator, you won't be limited to plain, boring numbers. You can work with detailed graphs that make even complicated concepts easy to understand. There's a MathPrint feature that lets you enter fractions and equations just as they appear in your books or typed by professors on the board – great for reducing any chances of errors. Best of all, it's approved for major exams like the SAT, ACT, AP, and IB, so you can bring it with you on exam day. The screen displays 10 digits across and up to eight lines at a time, so unless you're working on the Boolean Pythagorean Triples problem or trying to give Einstein a run for the theory of relativity, you'll have more than enough space to see what you're working on without having to scroll down. It also includes a USB cable that lets you connect it to your laptop or PC for updates and data sharing. This is great for transferring your collected data and even creating a backup of your work. All things considered, the calculator is great for students at just about any level, from middle school through college. It lets you understand complex topics and solve a range of problems across different subjects. At $87, with $52 off the regular price at Walmart, it's a great opportunity to snag it for less. Just note that it might not last too long, so we recommend grabbing it at a discount while you can. See at Walmart

Stock Movers: Bullish, CoreWeave, Cisco
On this edition of Stock Movers: - Bullish (BLSH) shares jumped 84% from the IPO price after the digital-asset exchange operator and owner of media outlet CoinDesk raised $1.1 billion in an initial public offering. Shares of the Cayman Islands-based company closed at $68 each on Wednesday in New York, nearly doubling its IPO price of $37 apiece. The offering was upsized earlier in the week to 30 million shares, and the price range was increased. The trading gives Bullish a market value of $9.9 billion based on the outstanding shares listed in its filing. The IPO ended more than 20 times oversubscribed, with about a third of orders receiving no shares at all, people familiar with the matter have said. - Walmart (WMT), Instacart (CART), and Kroger (KR) shares fell after Inc. announced plans to offer same-day grocery delivery in 2,300 cities by the end of the year. Customers will be able to order perishable items such as produce, dairy, meat, seafood and baked goods, alongside frozen foods and household items, the company said in a statement on Wednesday. Same-day grocery delivery is free for Amazon Prime subscribers on orders over $25 in most cities, it said. For non-members, the service carries a $12.99 fee, regardless of order size. - CoreWeave (CRWV) shares tumbled after the cloud-computing provider reported a wider quarterly loss and gave a disappointing earnings outlook, raising concerns about its rapid AI data center expansion pressuring profit margins. Third-quarter operating income will be $160 million to $190 million, the company said Tuesday, underwhelming investors looking to justify a near-quadrupling of its share price since its March debut. Costs are surging, and CoreWeave posted a loss of $131 million for the June quarter — more than 20 times bigger than the loss a year earlier. - Cisco Systems (CSCO) shares fell after the company gave a lukewarm forecast for the current fiscal year, disappointing investors who hoped for a boost from massive AI data center projects. Sales will be between $59 billion and $60 billion in the fiscal year that runs through July 2026, the company said in a statement Wednesday. At the midpoint, that's roughly in line with the average Wall Street estimate of $59.5 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Some analysts, though, we're looking for more than $61 billion.

Best Buy Has 4.8-Star Electric Screwdriver Tool Set at 50% Off to Clear Out Inventory
Loose cabinet pulls, battery compartments that refuse to budge, and wobbly chair legs have a way of hanging around because the right tool is never where you need it. The HOTO Electric Screwdriver Tool Set turns that pile of tiny fixes into quick wins. It comes in a tidy case that slips into a kitchen drawer, and the driver feels balanced in the hand, light enough for delicate gadgets yet sturdy enough for around-the-house jobs. Click in a bit, press the trigger, and the screw that used to fight you finally gives. Head over to Best Buy to get the HOTO Electric Screwdriver Tool Set for just $55, down from its usual price of $110. That's a discount of $55 and 50% off. See at Best Buy What makes this kit easy to live with is how naturally it gets out of your way. The compact driver has forward and reverse at your fingertip, so you do not juggle switches while balancing a hinge. A gentle motor handles everyday tasks without stripping tiny hardware, which is the worry with bulky drills. Glasses, toys, battery doors, cabinet knobs, light plates, and flat-pack furniture all fall into its sweet spot. It is the sort of tool that gets called up two or three times a week once you know it is in the drawer. The bit selection covers the usual suspects. You get a spread of Phillips and flat heads for housework, a few smaller sizes for electronics, and the oddball shapes that show up on toys and battery covers. Everything nests in a molded tray, so the right tip is easy to spot instead of rattling around in a tin. The magnetic chuck grabs each bit with a clean click and holds screws steady on the way in, which saves the finger acrobatics you learn trying to guide tiny hardware. Charging is simple. Plug in with the included cable, top up the battery, and you are set for a long stretch of quick repairs. The built-in light throws a small halo on your work so you can see the threads clearly inside a cabinet or under a desk. When the job needs more feel than power, the driver doubles as a comfortable manual handle so you can finish with a few careful turns. It is a handy gift, too. New homeowners, apartment dwellers, and anyone who assembles their own furniture will get real use out of it, and the minimalist case looks neat on a shelf. You will know it earned its spot the first time a loose knob is fixed in under a minute. The HOTO Electric Screwdriver Tool Set is still available for $55 at Best Buy, a clean drop from the usual $110 price. See at Best Buy
