In less than a month, the sun will be setting after 7 p.m., warmer days will be on the way and you'll be glad you grabbed that smartwatch or pair of AirPods while they were on sale.
Apple iPad 10th Gen ($279, originally $349): This iPad is one of the best tablets you can buy, period. While we've seen this model for slightly cheaper, this is still a steal for the quality and performance you get — especially with features like the A14 Bionic chip, 10-hour battery life and that gorgeous Retina display.

If you're looking to (seriously) upgrade your viewing experience — and have five-grand burning a hole in your pocket — this deal's got your name on it.
Apple Watch Series 10 ($359, originally $429): Planning to get serious about your workout regimen in '25? Snag yourself one of these.

Samsung The Frame 65-Inch Class QLED 4K TV ($1,298, originally $1,997): This TV isn't just for binge-watching; it lets you show off your artistic side by displaying everything from classic works of art to the photos you took on vacation. Yes, it's a splurge, but with a gorgeous matte display and at $700 off, it's a whole lot easier to justify.
Reolink Altas PT Ultra ($150, originally $230): This home security camera continuously records in stunning 4K for up to 96 hours on a single charge, or for up to 500 days in motion-detection mode. You get excellent night vision too. Another bonus: No pesky subscription fee.

There are two types of people in this world: those who love to cook, and those who have the local takeout pizza place on speed dial. No shame in falling into either camp, but we'd bet those in the latter group might enjoy preparing food more if they owned the right tools. We're talking cookware that doesn't stick, knives that are actually sharp and maybe even an air fryer to keep from having to wait for the oven to preheat. Well, all of those things — and more — happen to be on sale, so go ahead and flex those culinary muscles without overexerting your wallet.
Henckels 20-Piece Knife Set ($160, originally $440): This No. 1 bestselling collection has every type of blade a home cook could need, so if the ones in your drawer can barely pierce through a tomato anymore, you'll want to add this to your cart while it's down to an all-time low.
HexClad 6-Piece Hybrid Cookware Set ($330, originally $532): Gordon Ramsay approves of this brand, and you know how particular the celebrity chef is. The pans' hybrid construction combines the best qualities of stainless steel, cast iron and nonstick for a one-of-a-kind product that, according to Ramsay, "is highly versatile and cooks exceptionally well." With this starter set, you'll get the 12-inch, 10-inch and 8-inch Hybrid pans, plus lids for each — and for nearly 40% off.
Ninja Creami ($169, originally $199): Keep the ice cream party going all year long with this top-rated appliance, which makes churning out customizable frozen treats a breeze. It's on sale for less at Walmart than it is at Amazon ... (it's also Yahoo editor-approved — check out our review for more).
Carote 5-Piece Nonstick Cookware Set with Detachable Handle ($40, originally $50): You'll be much more inspired to get in the kitchen if you've got some spiffy new cookware. This attractive, compact set is pretty genius in that it comes with a detachable handle that fits on each pot and pan so you can neatly stack everything to save space in your cabinet. The slick nonstick material makes cleanup a cinch, and at just $40 for two frying pans, a saucepan, silicone lid and handle? No-brainer.
Keurig K-Express Essentials ($35, originally $59): Rise and grind! Just kidding — with this Keurig, making coffee is as simple as filling the tank with water, popping in a K-Cup of your choice and pressing a button. Let's face it, mornings can be hectic, and the last thing you need as you're rushing around is an involved java-making process. This speedy brewer takes all the work out, and it's down to an insane $35 (40% off).
Le Creuset Signature Oval Dutch Oven, 8-Quart ($300, originally $475): If there's one thing Le Creuset is know for, it's Dutch ovens. Equally as stunning as it is functional, this roomy pot holds enough food to feed a crowd and can go in the oven at temperatures up to 500° F. Use it to cook those cozy comfort dishes like stew, braised meat, mashed potatoes ... you can even bake bread in it. It's also ideal for deep-frying and roasting a chicken. At $175 off, it's as low as we're seeing it for anywhere online — and if you order by February 28, you'll get a free 2-piece baking dish set with code BAKINGSET.
Vitamix Explorian 2.0 Blender ($280, originally $379): You'll feel like you have your own personal smoothie shop with this best-in-class appliance. Boasting a 2-horsepower motor, it'll effortlessly blitz up ice and frozen fruit, though you could also use it for whizzing up sauces or even grinding up meat. From soup to nuts (as in, homemade nut butters), this workhorse will level up your meal prep like no other — and this is the best price we're seeing. If it's your first QVC order, you'll get an extra $10 off with code WELCOME10 — and just for today, everyone can get $15 off orders of $75 or more with code LOVE15.
Instant Pot Vortex Plus Air Fryer ($150, originally $220): Air fryers are nothing new, but this one has two drawers for cooking multiple things simultaneously, saving you lots of time. Another nifty feature? The ClearCook windows, which, along with an interior oven light, allow you to keep an eye on your grub. In fact, this was one of the traits we called out in our roundup of the best air fryers: "All of its functions — from air frying to roasting — worked and worked well. We also appreciated the clear basket panels for watching our food come along." At over 30% off, this markdown brings the price to about as low as it's been since the holidays.
Whether the cold has done a number on your skin or you're tired of spending a fortune on in-office teeth whitening treatments, you're in luck: There's no shortage of Presidents' Day deals on all your beauty must-haves.

This No. 1 bestselling spray works quickly to remove calluses and dry skin patches while providing essential hydration for smoother, softer feet.

We've yet to see it dip lower than this, so stock up!

For many of us, one of the worst things about coming home after a vacation is remembering how un-hotel-like your bed is. But it doesn't have to be that way — and you don't have to spend big bucks to upgrade your sleep situation. Brands like Tempur-Pedic, Nectar, Purple and Oprah's beloved Cozy Earth are currently marked down so you can create the five-star bed of your dreams. From supportive mattresses and toppers to luxurious sheets, you won't want to snooze on these sales.
Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Mattress Topper, Queen ($198, originally $419): Tired of waking up with aches and pains? A topper is a fabulous option when you're not quite ready to part ways with your less-than-cloudlike mattress, or simply don't want to shell out tons of money for a new one. There's a lot to love about this model, from its lofty 3-inch height to its machine-washable cover. But what really sets it apart is the fact that it's constructed from Tempur-Pedic's signature memory foam. This adaptive material was designed to conform to your body's contours for custom comfort while minimizing motion transfer for a more restful experience. It's also a stunning 55% off!
Cozy Earth Bamboo Sheet Set, Queen ($265, originally $331): This ethereally soft, breathable set is one of Oprah's favorite things, so you know it's good — and Yahoo editors adore it too (check out our review for more). Plus, save up to 25% sitewide.
Brooklinen Luxe Sateen Pillowcases, Standard, 2-Pack ($28, originally $59): Not only will these silky-smooth sleeves elevate the look of your bed, they'll feel divine against your skin. Save 40% on this gorgeous pair and more from the dreamy linen brand.

Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress, Queen ($649, originally $1,664): Here's another option that's on the more budget-friendly side, though with over 40,000 perfect ratings, you wouldn't know it. It's 60% off!
Alwyn Home Sleep Bathild 3 Mattress, Queen ($110, originally $250): Snagging a queen-size mattress for under $200 might sound too good to be true, but it's possible over at Wayfair. This 56%-off deal scores you a medium-firm model that adapts to your body's contours and keeps things cool and comfy for custom support. And that pillow layer is like having a plush mattress topper built right in!
The key to making cleaning feel like less of a chore is having the right gear — and if the crumbs on your floor keep accumulating because the thought of schlepping a heavy vacuum around is too much to bear, we've got you. Want to upgrade to a lightweight stick vac? We found options from brands like Shark and, yes, even Dyson on sale. Of course, you could also just let a robovac do the work; there's a Roomba that's down to a record-low price. No matter which type you prefer, you'll want to zap it up while you can save big.
Inse Cordless Stick Vacuum ($90, originally $270): We think it's pretty "Inse"-ane that such a sleek-looking vac could cost so little, but this bestseller proves you don't have to break the bank to upgrade your cleaning appliance. It runs for up to 45 minutes and weighs just over 8 pounds, making it a breeze to bring from room to room.
Dyson V12 Detect Slim Cordless Vacuum ($466, originally $650): Of course, if it's a Dyson stick vac you want, a Dyson stick vac you can get — and for a not-so-shabby $184 discount at Walmart. This is the brand's most lightweight model (just 5.2 pounds!), but it can run for up to an hour per charge. It ranked high on our list of the best Dyson cordless stick vacuums.
Dyson V7 Advanced Cordless Vacuum ($250, originally $400): This model's just slightly heavier but costs much less at under $300. The detangling Motorbar gets into thick carpet fibers to suck up deeply embedded dust and hair, and it runs for up to 40 minutes.
iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum ($119, originally $250): Rather not push a vacuum around at all? Not only will this wildly popular robovac zap up dirt and dust while you relax on the couch, it'll return to its base when it's finished, too. This is the lowest price we've ever seen it on sale for.
Bissell Little Green Portable Carpet Cleaner ($88, originally $124): Attention, pet parents: Before you call your local carpet cleaning service, you'll want to check out this under-$100 Walmart bestseller, which has powerful suction to help eliminate stubborn stains (and their accompanying odors). We've often seen it on sale for $98, so grab it while it's $10 less.
DeWalt 20V Max Cordless Wet-Dry Vacuum ($93, originally $159): Portable? Check. Cordless? Check. Powerful? Check. This small yet mighty handheld meets all of our requirements and then some, thanks to its versatility (as in, sucking up both wet and dry messes), compact size (just 8 pounds) and 3-year warranty. This is as low as it's been in about a year.
Shark 2-in-1 Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum ($100, originally $150): If there's one type of Shark we're always happy to run into, it's one that's on sale — and this 33%-off deal really puts the bite on its price. At under 4 pounds, sucking up dust bunnies won't feel like a workout, and its swivel steering allows for easier maneuvering. This is as low as it's ever been.
Whether you're glad Punxsutawney Phil declared an extra six weeks of winter or you're counting down the days 'til spring, there are plenty of stylish savings to take advantage of this week. Why so many markdowns? Retailers are trying to clear their e-racks before the temps start rising for good, which translates to big savings on everything from cold weather essentials to those transitional wardrobe saviors. Here are some steals we have our eye on:
Gloria Vanderbilt Classic High Rise Amanda Tapered Jeans ($16, originally $48): If you're looking for denim that's designed to fit women of all shapes and sizes, the No. 1 bestselling Amanda jeans definitely fit the bill (pun intended). They're a classic high-rise pair that sits at your natural waist and will go with just about anything.
Colorfulkoala Women's Dreamlux Leggings ($26, originally $34): Not only do these boast thousands of 5-star reviews, senior deals writer Britt penned her own love letter to her pair: "If you're looking for leggings that are comparable to Lululemon, Colorfulkoala Dreamlux leggings are an affordable alternative (though they're supremely comfortable in their own right). You can stock up on several colors for less than half the price of many high-end brands, which I'd very much advise doing."
Patagonia Nano Puff Jacket ($119, originally $239): This might be less puffy than your other heavy-duty winter jacket, but it'll still keep you plenty warm — minus the Michelin man cosplay. Sizes are going quickly, so if you see one you like, strike fast.
Hoka Bondi 8 Running Shoes ($116, originally $165): These sock-like kicks have a super thick insole and weigh less than 9 ounces, making them a great option for anyone whose feet need ultra-plush cushioning. This model is one of Hoka's most popular, so stock is dwindling fast.
Lands' End FeatherFree Insulated Jacket ($44, originally $120): Even though we're already halfway through February, this lightweight coat would be a great layering piece during those transitional months, and you can't argue with that nearly 65% discount. Made from recycled bottles, it's an eco-friendly, water-resistant option that features stylish diamond quilting and insulation for extra warmth. Enter code CHERISH at checkout for the full markdown.
Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Rib Crewneck Lounge Top ($69, originally $99): If you've ever wanted to wear one of this brand's iconic throw blankets, this top is the next best thing. The hug-like crewneck is made for cozy nights in, but you'd be tempted to wear it out and about, too (and you'd be missing out if you don't).
Kate Spade Outlet On Purpose Large Swingpack Crossbody ($99, originally $329): You can't go wrong with a classic crossbody, and this one's just the right size: roomy enough to hold all of your on-the-go essentials without feeling too bulky. It's a timeless piece that'll go with just about anything you wear, and at 70% off? We're tempted to order one in every color.
Columbia Women's Benton Springs Full Zip ($30, originally $46): Made of soft maximum-thermal-retention (MTR) filament fleece, the zip-up works to keep you toasty even on the coolest days, even though it's also thin enough to serve as the perfect under-layer with a parka or puffer when the temps dip below zero.
Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects, 22 Treatments ($30, down from $46): This sale drops the price to within a few bucks of what it was during Black Friday. Now that's something to say "cheese!" about.
Apple iPad (10th Generation) ($279, down from $349): Rare sale alert: This is the best price we've seen for this model in months. As the unofficial Goldilocks of tech (less bulky than a laptop but larger than a smartphone), this tablet keeps you connected on the go or at home, and you can use it for everything from reading books to taking notes to watching videos.
Apple AirTags, 4-Pack ($70, down from $99): The deal on this four-pack brings each tag down to about $18 (they typically retail for about $25 to $30 a pop). Grab a few for your, er, forgetful family members!
RedTiger 4K Dash Cam ($100, down from $199): Be sure to apply the on-page coupon to get it for 50% off — as low as it's ever been.
CosRx Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream ($24, down from $39): Don't move at a snail's pace — snag this slimy yet satisfying stuff while it's on major markdown (over 75% off).
Arolina Wide-Leg Pants ($17, down from $30): Guess who's a fan of these lounge-worthy yet chic stretchy pants? Cher! That's right — the superstar posted about them on social media, saying, "I love these."
Comhoma Office Chair ($56, down from $70): While the reduced price (an all-time low!) of this chair alone warrants a standing (sitting?) ovation, you'll be happy to know a lot of thought went into its design. Its curved shape is meant to conform to your back, while the base of the seat offers lumbar support to help take some pressure off. Hey, your job might cause a lot of stress, but your bum's resting place shouldn't!
Apple AirTags, 4-Pack ($70, down from $99): The deal on this four-pack brings each tag down to about $18 (they typically retail for about $25 to $30 a pop). Grab a few for your, er, forgetful family members!
Henckels 20-Piece Knife Set ($183, down from $440): This collection is majorly marked down from its list price of $440, though I've never actually seen it shoot that high. Still, this deal brings it down to a record low.
iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum ($130, down from $250): A top-selling Roomba that's nearly 50% off — its all-time lowest price? I'll take two! This gizmo will zap up all of that dust and debris on your floor while you relax on the sofa — nothing wrong with that. It runs for up to 120 minutes before heading back to its charging dock, and you can even schedule cleanings via the app.
Apple AirPods 4 ($100, down from $129): At just $100, this pair is down to the best price I've seen. Now, they don't include active noise cancellation like these do, but if it's a high-quality, comfortable listening experience you're after, these earbuds more than deliver.
Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 Portable Power Station ($459, down from $799): This power station is an absolute steal right now at $340 off. With a massive 1,070 watt-hour capacity and multiple ports, it's perfect for powering everything from your camping gear to essential appliances during a power outage.
Tuffenough Solar Outdoor Lights, 2-Pack ($30, down from $47): Let there be light — in your yard! These top-sellers are motion sensored to illuminate your driveway, patio or any outdoor space at night, and because they get their juice from the sun during the day, you won't have to worry about batteries or charging. They also come with a remote and have three brightness modes — plus, they've yet to dip lower than they are now.
Marycele Candle Warmer Lamp ($20, down from $46): Got kids and/or pets? This fire-free find gently melts candles via the heat from its bulb, meaning no ashy messes to clean up and zero flames. All you do is place your candle on the base beneath the bulb, turn on the light and ... that's it. As the candle warms up from the heat of the lamp, it'll release its scent — without any burnt undertones.
Trazon Snow Shovel ($48, down from $70): Its curved, ergonomically designed handle helps with posture to keep you from bending as much (thus minimizing strain) and the aluminum-edged scooper chips away at hard snow and ice with less effort on your part. Add it to your cart while it's over 30% off.
Olanly Bathroom Rug, 30" x 20" ($7, down from $15 with code XWJXN779): This ultra-thick, impossibly soft rug is made of highly absorbent and quick-drying chenille microfiber. Its plush texture will feel like heaven under your feet, and at over 50% off, it's within a dollar of as low as it's ever been.
Beats Solo 4 Headphones ($100, down from $200): These Solo 4s are 50% off, which means you can bask in all the signature Beats features for just $100.
Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Mattress Topper, Queen ($198, down from $419): This adaptive material was designed to conform to your body's contours for custom comfort (say that three times fast!), while minimizing motion transfer for a more restful experience. It's also a stunning 55% off!
Instant Pot Vortex Plus Air Fryer ($150, down from $220): At over 30% off, this markdown brings the price to about as low as it's been since the holidays.
Pocaland Ultra-Slim Bidet Attachment ($30, down from $120): Not only is it more thorough than wiping, it'll also make you feel like you're getting a spa treatment. This is as low as it's ever been.

Grocery e-commerce sales jump nearly 30% in June
This story was originally published on Grocery Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Grocery Dive newsletter. Online grocery sales jumped nearly 28% in June compared to the year prior, while in-store sales slipped, according to Brick Meets Click and Mercatus' latest monthly report. All three receiving methods — delivery, pickup and ship-to-home — reported sales gains of at least 25%. Walmart and mass retailers as a whole continue to threaten traditional grocers, with Mercatus executive Mark Fairhurst stating that June's results 'should be a wake-up call' to regional grocers. While U.S. e-grocery sales increased 27.6% last month to $9.8 billion, in-store grocery sales fell slightly due to the combined impact of the surge of digital orders and consumers shifting where they primarily purchase groceries, according to the report. Overall grocery spending per household rose less than 3% during the final week of June 2025 compared to the same period the year prior, indicating that in-store grocery sales across retail formats saw a decline, according to Brick Meets Click and Mercatus. However, supermarkets were hit hard by a shift in where consumers buy most of their groceries. While Walmart saw a nearly 1 percentage point rise in the share of households that indicated the mass retailer was their primary grocery store, and hard discounters like Aldi gained almost 1.5 percentage points, supermarkets lost over 2 percentage points, per the report. The growing competition from mass and discount retailers carries over to e-grocery results, as well, Brick Meets Click and Mercatus found. One in four households that ordered groceries online from supermarkets also did so from Walmart in June, up 400 basis points year-over-year. On top of that, cross-shopping between traditional grocery stores and Walmart has risen every June since 2020 — which is when Brick Meets Click began measuring and monitoring this shopping indicator, the firm said. Overall, delivery saw a 29% year-over-year growth in June sales, reaching $3.8 million, which Brick Meets Click and Mercatus credited to strong growth in the segment's monthly active user base as well as gains in order frequency and average order value. 'June's strong results signal that this sustained surge in eGrocery sales, particularly in Delivery, is likely to continue because Delivery is now effectively free for many users,' Brick Meets Click Partner David Bishop said in a statement. Pickup also saw growth, with sales increasing 25% year-over-year to $4.3 billion, driven by increases to its monthly active user base, order frequency and average order value. Ship-to-home, meanwhile, saw sales increase 33% to $1.7 billion with its monthly active user base expanding faster than the delivery segment's, per the report. Delivery and ship-to-home both increased their sales share, with the former currently representing 38% of e-grocery sales and the latter 18%. Pickup, however, saw its share decline for the second straight year, dropping 110 basis points to 44%. The report is based on a Brick Meets Click survey of 1,496 adults conducted June 29-30, as well as a survey by the firm in June 2024 of 1,744 people. According to Brick Meets Click, despite the grocery channel reporting year-over-year improvements in building engagement through delivery and pickup, mass retailers still have a more than 10-point advantage in delivery, with Walmart continuing to attract new online customers who primarily buy groceries from supermarkets. Fairhurst, chief growth marketing officer at Mercatus, suggested that regional grocers leverage their customer data as a competitive advantage. The sharp rise of cross-shopping between traditional supermarkets and Walmart underscores 'the urgent need to defend your customer base on every channel by owning the relationship at each touchpoint,' Fairhurst said.

Retail store closures reach concerning all-time high
One by one, retail stores are disappearing faster than they are opening, leading some to wonder if we are getting closer to the demise of brick-and-mortar shopping. The rise of e-commerce platforms has revolutionized consumer behavior, offering more convenient ways to access nearly any product without the need to enter a physical store.

Economic uncertainty and inflation have caused a shift in consumer spending, creating a higher demand for more affordable and vast options in one place. Hence, e-tail giants like Amazon (AMZN) , Alibaba (BABAF) , and eBay (EBAY) have dominated the market worldwide, with Shein and Temu close behind.

Meanwhile, iconic retailers like Party City (PRTY) , Joann (JOAN) , and Forever 21 have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after putting up a long fight to survive. Despite the rise of e-commerce, many consumers still prefer traditional brick-and-mortar shopping over online platforms. This could be due to older generations being less tech-savvy or because younger generations don't want to return unwanted items by mail. Still, e-commerce has grown immensely and is expected to account for nearly 35% of all retail sales by the end of 2025, according to Metrobi. This shift is beginning to affect brick-and-mortar shops, creating a wide discrepancy between store closures and openings.

As of July 4 of this year, 5,942 closures and 4,176 new openings have been reported, with 119 stores shutting down nationwide within the first week of July alone. Last year, 3,496 closures occurred during the same period, highlighting a troublesome retail trend with no signs of slowing. The acceleration in store closures might explain why malls are becoming a dying business, and the same goes for their staple retail chains. These brands have planted themselves at almost every local mall for what seems like forever, becoming essential to the shopping experience. But now, many are struggling with rising rent prices and declining foot traffic.

There are around 1,200 malls across the U.S. as of April 2025, but by 2028, only about 900 are expected to remain standing, with 87% of large shopping malls projected to shut down within the next decade, according to Capital One Research.
