The Lenovo IdeaPad is an affordable laptop for those of you not looking to invest your entire paycheck at once. This well-priced laptop runs Windows 10 and has dual-core processing so you can multitask at your will. You’ll also receive a free yearly subscription of Microsoft Office 365 for all your work from home needs. There’s also two USB 3.0 ports and an HDMI port for increased connectivity. The only downside is that some reviewers think the IdeaPad runs slow from time to time. Even still, if you’re looking for an affordable laptop or looking to invest in a secondary laptop you really can’t go wrong with the Lenovo IdeaPad Computer. Purchase it now at its low price of $335 before the price shoots back up.

iRobot Roomba 675— $249, was $300

If you’re too busy to vacuum like me the iRobot Roomba was made for you. This smart vacuum connects to the iRobot Home app or even your voice assistant to clean dirt, dust, or food crumbs daily or whenever you schedule it to. The multi-surface brushes grab dirt from any surface and the edge-cleaning feature helps the vacuum pick up debris from hard to reach places across your apartment. There are even dirt detect sensors that sense which parts of your house carry the most dirt for a more thorough cleaning. The iRobot Roomba is so advanced that you won’t even have to worry about charging it. When the Roomba’s battery runs low it automatically docks and recharges, ready for its next cleaning. With all its amazing features we don’t see the iRobot Roomba’s price dropping lower than $250 anytime soon. Grab this deal while it lasts.

You’ll even be able to photograph in the dark with the new Bright Night Mode which delivers you crisp, clear images in low light conditions without even using flash. If you’re not one to care about camera lenses you’ll be happy to know that the Samsung S20 has an all-day battery life and the added functionality of super-fast charging if you’re looking to top up your power quickly.
