Our top pick: $100 Instacart gift card
Opens in a new window
While it may not be the most glamorous gift in the world, everyone needs groceries. And it’s no secret that grocery prices are extremely steep. Not only will $100 worth of free groceries go a long way for someone in your life, but they can also get them delivered to their door on a day they dread going out to the store. For a limited time, you can save $15 on an Instacart gift card at Amazon. Just add the $100 gift card option to your cart and the savings will be applied automatically.
Amazon Echo Buds

While they may not offer noise cancellation like the previously released version, the 2023 Echo Buds sound great, last up to 20 hours with the charging case, are simple to use, pair seamlessly with other Alexa devices, and have a price tag that’s hard to beat. As Mashable reviewer SaVanna Shoemaker noted, “For the price, the Echo Buds are a solid pair of wireless earbuds.” As of Dec. 13, you can grab a pair for only $24.99 — that’s 50% off and matches the record-low from Black Friday.
AncestryDNA + Traits genetic testing kit
Opens in a new window
A DNA test kit from AncestryDNA can help you connect with your family and understand yourself on a deeper level by testing your origins in over 2,600 global regions. You’ll be able to connect with living relatives (if they’ve also taken an AncestryDNA test), so you can find long-lost cousins and uncles. Plus, you’ll get insight into 40+ genetic traits, so you can see how your genes have influenced your appearance, fitness, sensory characteristics, and beyond — all from a spit sample. It’s usually $119 per kit, but as of Dec. 13, you’ll pay just $39 at Amazon. If you’re at a loss for a gift idea this season, scoop this up.
Sonos Era 100
Opens in a new window
Launched last year as a replacement for the now obsolete Sonos One, the Sonos Era 100 is capable of producing stereo sound on its own (unlike its predecessor). It also refreshed the controls on top with a capacitive volume control and a new button to turn off the voice assistant, has a slightly taller build, and added two tweeters. It’s usually $249, but as of Dec. 13, you can snag it for just $199 at Amazon. That’s a savings of 20%.
Blink Outdoor 4 (3-pack)
Opens in a new window
When it comes to budget-friendly security cameras, the Blink Outdoor 4 is hard to beat — especially when you can get three for only $129.99. Usually $259.99, that’s 50% in savings. The Blink Outdoor 4 works seamlessly with other Alexa-enabled devices, comes with customizable motion zones, offers infrared night vision and two-way audio, and has a battery life that’ll last two full years. It’s one of our favorite security cameras for anyone hoping to keep an eye on things around their home day or night. And with a three-pack, you can cover every inch of your home’s perimeter.
