Following the pandemic’s lengthy run-up to the holidays last year, customers and companies alike have been looking forward to a more relaxed 2021. As a result of the lack of supply in gifts, retailers such as Amazon and Target began offering holiday specials even earlier than usual in order to get ahead of the shortage of inventory and to alleviate consumer worry. It’s possible that this will result in a longer holiday gift-giving timetable. Here are a few places where you can find some unusual bargains.
- Lowe’s: Cyber Monday Smart Home Deals, save on home security, smart assistants, tablets, fitness trackers, and more. Choose curbside pickup to dodge the $5.99 shipping fee, or get free shipping with orders of $45 or more. They will also be selling the Google Nest Mini Smart Speaker + GE Smart Plug Bundle for $24.99, which is definitely worth the value for what you get.
