2-Cup Glass Round Dish

from $32

If your food storage isn’t pulling double duty, it might be time for an upgrade. “Perhaps most appealing [about plastic-free, non-oxic Anyday containers] was the fact that I could store and cook in the same vessel, then put all the parts into the dishwasher when I was done,” of this discounted set, according to kitchen expert Emily Farris.

Bissell

Little Green Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner

If it weren’t for my trusty sidekick with strong spraying, scrubbing and suction powers, my home would look (and smell!) far more unappealing than it does with two kids and two pets. In the four years since I have bought the Bissell, which most recently sat at $99.99 in August, it’s more than paid for itself in the professional cleaning services I have avoided booking.

Step up your home theater setup with a Sonos subwoofer that’s petite and on sale for a very good price.

If you’re a fiend for a good blowout, then the Filter-vetted Dyson Airwrap i.d. is certainly on your radar, and yes, we know, it’s expensive.

Air 10 Hair Removal Device

$259

This Filter UK-approved (and, if you care, Kardashian-endorsed) Ulike hair removal device with a built-in cooling system is rarely discounted this steeply at 26% off.

We work for our readers, rather than the brands we write about. Every item we recommend is something a Filter editor or contributor has personally tested and can vouch for. On occasion, we may present a close substitute from the same brand and explain any differences from the original.

We scour competing retailers for the lowest prices on any item, and we use price-tracking tools such as Camelcamelcamel to check price history and ensure the discounts are truly good value, rather than a faux markdown. (So, while we love sharing good deals, we also aren’t afraid to call out the unimpressive ones.)
