Amazon/Target
You can save $70 on a pair of Beats Studio Buds right now.

Looking for solid noise-canceling ear buds but don’t want to pay that AirPods Pro  or Bose QuietComfort price? Good news: Beats Studio Buds are quietly lower than their Black Friday sale price at multiple retailers, and they offer a lot of bang for the buck. 

On sale in six cool colors at Target and five at Amazon  — including pink and blue, which is rare — these Beats Studio Buds are compatible with both Apple and Android phones with simple and quick one-touch pairing. With an IPX4 water-resistant rating, you won’t even have to worry about sweat or rain. Choose between transparency mode, so you can still hear the world around you, or noise-cancelling mode so you can enjoy the best audio and calls. You’ll get eight hours of listening time on a charge and up to 24 hours with additional charge from the case. And like Apple’s AirPods Pro, they come with three tip options for the best in-ear fit. 

You’ll save 47% off the regular price, just in time for a self-gift or even a last-minute holiday surprise for someone else.

These earbuds even support spatial audio for movies and gaming, and have finger-tap controls for taking and ending calls, playing music and more. 

Check out some promising reviews from Amazon buyers: 

“After going through 3 sets of $200 Apple AirPods Pro’s in the last year, the speakers always blew out, I wanted to try something different, I had beats back in high school and they were the best quality headphones I had, so I figured I’d see what their Apple equivalent had to offer, and I’m beyond impressed. For HALF the price, you get a more comfortable and lighter earbud that you can barely tell is in your ear, and doesn’t hurt sitting in my ears after an hour like the AirPods, but most importantly, the sound quality is 10x better, a lot clearer with more bass, as well as they higher output of volume. These are as loud as AirPods at 3/4 volume when AirPods are at full volume. They also have the same tapping features as the AirPods for song skipping, pausing, and calls so it’s not like having to relearn a different style from before. I will never waste the money on AirPods again.” — Juliana Straessley

“This earbuds are so incredible. I love the pink color. They are comfortable to wear once you figure out how to properly place them in your ear. They pair quickly on your device and I have used them on Android and Windows PC as well. The battery life is amazing, which was the biggest thing I was looking for when deciding which earbuds to buy. They also charge super quick and I love the little case. And the sound quality is very good. I am not an expert on audio but for a casual person that loves to listen to music, watch movies and play videogames this work great. So happy with my purchase!” — Gabriela Fernandez

“I am personally super pleased with these headphones...The entire time I’m working out though, my headphones have no issue staying in my ear, the sound quality is amazing, and they have an excellent noise cancellation. Every once in a while you have to adjust them and push them more in your ear if the noise cancellation isn’t perfect, but thats every ear bud, if you don’t want to deal with that then get yourself a set of over the ear headphones. I think this purchase was one hundred percent worth the price! I got them almost a month ago, only charging them a few minutes here and there and they still haven’t been on low battery mode. I was using skullcandy ANC earbuds and honestly they just kept breaking on me, 30/40$ adds up if you have to keep buying a new pair every six months. I would rather pay a hundred bucks at this point for a pair of headphones that work than to not be inconvenienced at the gym with not being able to workout because my headphones broke, and keep buying a new pair of headphones which in the end, end up more costly than this pair anyways.” — Tabby

Promising review: "This product is everything everyone says it is and more. If I could recommend one product that is the key to glass skin, it would be this. It gives an immediate glow, and makes the skin look so supple and healthy. The texture wasn't off-puting for me, but it is a bit slimy and stringy when you first pump out the product. It absorbs pretty quickly and doesn't leave a sticky residue, and it is unscented. Can't say enough good things about this product and the brand. You need this product in your life!"

It comes with the infamous goat and a small book with fun facts about goats. The goat is 3 inches tall and comes with a battery already inside.

Promising review: "I spend about 90% of my day silently screaming at the computer because, well, welcome to customer service. Since this little goat arrived, I no longer look like I am practicing for my appearance on 'Jerry Springer.' I just push the little goat. He screams (but not in a disruptive way). I smile. I am no longer annoyed." Gab

Promising review: "My daughter is 4 and plays with these DAILY! YES they do attract dirt and hair HOWEVER they are so easy to rinse off, it's not a big deal! We took these to a family gathering and ended up giving two away because they were SO loved! The two we gave away went to a 12-year-old and my 19-year-old brother. They discovered throwing them at the ceiling fan and watching them shoot across the room which was pretty entertaining! None of these have busted or ripped and they are definitely NOT gentle with them! I will definitely be buying more!" Heather Hambrick

Promising review: "Very useful! I love that the cup is removable so if you have one of those giant Chick-Fil-A ketchup cups, it can sit within the holder without the added cup, but a smaller sauce like from Wendys can sit inside the additional cup so it wont fall through." catherine (credit:www.amazon.com)

This has three USB ports to charge three devices at a time, and it holds enough juice to fully charge an iPhone 8s nearly four times so it's OK if you forget to charge this all the time, too.

Promising review: "I love this portable charger! I didnt think it would be a good idea, because normally your portable chargers die within the first charge it does. I have charged my phone over four times and havent had to charge it! That is including just leaving it in my bag for weeks until I need it again. It will not disappoint! I love it!" MacMak

Promising review: "I keep going back to buy more colors. This is THEE gloss. You can throw it on alone and it has enough pigment to look great even without lip liner. Ive never had a gloss wear this well without being sticky. I have some fine lip lines and it doesnt bleed. Bonus that as it wears off, it leaves a nice bit of color without any weirdness and my lips just feel moisturized. Excellent price point that makes it fun to keep trying more colors. I just ordered my fourth and love them all. I cant remember the last time I was this excited about a beauty product." Natalia (credit:www.amazon.com)
Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza, a card game guaranteed to have everyone cracking up(14 of32)
Open Image Modal
It's recommended for ages 8 and up! Each person takes a turn flipping a card face-up on a pile in the middle while saying the words taco, cat, goat, cheese, pizza in that order. If the card in the middle matches the word being spoken, the players race to slap their hands down on top of all the cards.

There's a holiday version of this game too: Santa Cookie Elf Candy Snowman .

Promising review: "Oh mysuper fun game. Laughter all around. Gave to my son as a little extra something in Christmas stocking, hes 18. I could tell he was thinking, what is this? But when we played as a family over the holiday, we had so much fun and laughed a lot, great memories will be shared over this game for a long long time!! Later, same day after playing, he told me he thought it wasnt going to be fun at all but now it was the best stocking stuffer ever;-). He and college roommates have the best time with this game. My oldest daughter has since purchased the game as well. Great fun! Buy it!" Horse Girl

Promising review: "This is a holy grail. I have 4c low-porosity hair that is easily tangled and matted at any time. Im also tender headed so I dread wash days. I used this to detangle wet hair before my wash and during my conditioning process. Im amazed! This cut my detangling sessions down from an hour and a half to 20 minutes. I was also able to blow dry my hair to stretch it for styling because it was already so well detangled! Worth every penny." Trina R. (credit:www.amazon.com)

Because it is really good on everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. Soft pretzels, toast, biscuits, waffles, cereal, yogurt, ice cream, and definitely pizza. Gives everything in your kitchen a small kick of sweet heat flavor without burning your mouth. I have told many of my friends about this magical elixir and they all agree this is the BEST specialty honey any of us have ever had. Dont hesitate to buy it. It is absolutely wonderful stuff.

Promising review: "I love this stuff! I received some for a gift and then purchased it for my daughter from Amazon. It feels like a clay mask going on, and then starts bubbling and turns to a thinner substance when it's done. I feel like it is very gentle on my face. My skin feels amazing after I wash it off. It feels like I used moisturizer, even though I did not. I hear that these masks are very popular in Japan." LizaB (credit:www.amazon.com)

It is still operating on the initial charge from when I first fully charged it. It is USB rechargeable, which is a must for me. Very light and easy to stick into my work bag pocket or side of my purse. I was not disappointed. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to get ride of those harsh shadows when taking selfies, photos in low light, or videos on their phone." Connie (credit:Amazon)

I've never really worn hats, living in California, but have had to go to Minnesota and other cold places recently for work, and it keeps my head SO WARM. It's soft (I hate even the tiniest bit of scratchy feeling) and the purple sage color is muted and elegant and lovely. I don't think I will ever buy another kind of hat again!"

Promising review: "I have always had skin issues. Itchy, flaky skin, lotion won't absorb, no product really helps remove the gross dead skin in high-friction areas. These changed my life! Remove dead skin with ease, and aren't as coarse as those gloves you see in big box stores! I'm significantly less itchy, lotion absorbs better, and I feel better when I wear tank tops or even less! These things are a lifesaver. Most gross and satisfying, while scrubbing, I noticed the water turning gray in the tub as I scrubbed away all those dead skin cells. My allergies aren't half of what they were a week ago, and I can use all those cute soaps and lotions! I feel great. I'd buy these a million times more. I had no idea how much body soil I was retaining. I feel great after a shower and for once, I feel truly clean." Rachel Anschuetz (credit:www.amazon.com)

The back strap adjusts to fit your head so it stays put when you roll around at night, and there's a soft wire in the nose piece so that the mask can adjust to the shape of your nose to provide maximum blackout coverage. You can't beat the price for this eye mask great quality and super comfy." Paula (credit:Amazon)

Got this as a stocking stuffer for my wife. Literally. She got a good laugh out of it. But besides that, it is a great little skillet for a single egg (from a hummingbird preferably) or some popcorn on the grill (three or four kernels). Just buy it!"

The color isnt too extreme, but it will leave a little bit of tint on your lips. The flavors are DELICIOUS. Graham cracker reminds me of Golden Grahams cereal and chocolate is just perfect. I love the marshmallow best because it tastes slightly toasted." Elle Ardi (credit:Amazon)

This attachable aerator deposits oxygen into your wine, which improves taste and allows aromas to expand.

Promising review: "I bought this for my Dad who really likes his wine. He didn't think it would do much to the taste of the wine so I had him try some cheapish wine without this aerator and then had him try it with the aerator and the taste was like night and day. He's tried it on some of his better wine and while it does change the taste a little, it wasn't as drastic as the improvement on the cheaper wine." Kayson

Britney Spears's long-awaited memoir, "The Woman in Me," perfect for your family's resident pop culture fanatic(29 of32)
Open Image Modal
Promising review: "Britney finally having the space to tell her own story is a highlight of 2023. While over the past few years many wrongs have been made right (or at least as right as possible), this book takes things a step further and offers perspective on events going back over two decades. I easily read the entire book in one sitting, even though it is close to 300 pages long, because growing up with Britney and watching everything she had gone through hearing what was going on behind closed doors felt like reading a letter from a friend. A lot of the book is absolutely devastating, and the fact that she manages to stay resilient through it all is a true testament to her character. I wish nothing but happiness for Britney, whatever she chooses to do with her future now." Nicole Lynn (credit:www.amazon.com)

Promising review: "I never write reviews but I could not pass this one up. After my last pregnancy, I started developing cystic acne; my skin was congested with oil, whiteheads, blackheads, you name it. I hated the texture of my skin. I impulsively bought this and tried it the day it was delivered. I was amazed at how well it extracted all the gunk I could and couldn't see lurking under my skin. I use it every night to cleanse, then apply my serum and moisturizer. I am finally happy with the way my skin looks and posted a selfie without a filter for the first time since I can remember! Just try it! (All photos were taken in natural light. No filters on ANY of them! I'm still in shock!)" Marlena H. (credit:www.amazon.com)

This morning, I went to a plant nursery and forgot to put on bug spray. On the 10-minute drive home, I could feel the welts rising on my calves from all the mosquito bites. The first thing I did when I got home was open my brand new Bug Bite Thing and get to work. By the time I finished treating my eight mosquito bites, the itchiness had reduced from distressingly distracting to a relatively minor irritation. Now, an hour later, I am completely itch-free!! Ive not only found my saving grace, but everyones stocking stuffer this year. The product sounds too good to be true, but the relief is *real*!" Philip J. Priest (credit:Amazon)
