As deals writers, we spend most of our workdays scoping out incredible sales on a multitude of varying products. While a moderate amount of self-control is necessary in order to perform our jobs, some discounts are so good, even we can't pass them up. Admittedly, not every one of our heart's desires is worth writing home about (we'll spare you the details on our toilet paper preferences, as long as we can help you figure out where it's in stock), the list we’ve compiled below happens to be filled with just that—the very best products we've found on sale during quarantine that are worth shouting to the rooftops. 

Keep reading to discover why we can't live without the deals we snagged on some of our new favorite items—and where you can snatch them up. 

1. Apple's cult-favorite AirPods

Get these cult favorite 'buds for their Black Friday price.

I’ll admit that it took months of research and a sale for me to finally purchase a pair of AirPods. Despite reading glowing reviews and my longing hovering over the ‘add to cart’ button, I couldn’t quite bring myself to finalize the purchase—until I saw that they were on sale, that is! I managed to nab them them from BJ's Wholesale Club for $129.99, down $20 from $149.99. Complete with free three to five-day shipping, I received these Bluetooth earphones in just a few days, and since then, they have seriously transformed my life. Wireless workouts have been a dream while listening to music and taking calls while I work is a breeze. I especially love that the storage case also charges them, so they never run out of battery, either. Note that you'll need to be a BJ's member to access this deal, but it's super easy to sign up for a membership online for just $55 per year.

2. This trusty electric kettle

The functions on this thing are seriously impressive.

Truth be told, this was meant to be a present for my boyfriend, who loves his French press coffee to no end. That being said, it’s also right up there with my most-used things in quarantine. Between brewing water for tea to soothe any sore throat anxieties I might be having amid the coronavirus pandemic and the quick boil (five minutes or less) it affords for a quick cup of coffee when I’m running late for my Zoom meetings, the Cuisinart PerfecTemp Cordless Electric Kettle has been a Godsend. It has a “stay warm” button on the handle that allows me to reap the benefits of any boiled water my significant other has already brewed, and it’s easy to pour in a safe, easy manner—something that’s hugely important for a klutz such as myself. No wonder it earned our Editor’s Choice award for the best overall electric kettle! Though it’s worth every penny of its usual $99.99 price tag, you can save $20 right now when you get it at Best Buy.

3. This super-soft tee

Chic and cozy, this top is ideal for working from home.

My daily quarantine uniform typically consists of the softest loungewear I can find, and American Eagle’s Twist Front T-Shirt was a top-notch investment for just that—albeit slightly elevated. Thanks to the fun front twist detail that somewhat crops the hem, it's a cut above your run-of-the-mill tee. You can style this top with anything, but for me, it’s been making its way into outfits paired with sweats, leggings and pajama shorts. Available in four colors (I grabbed it in white), this lightweight tee is on sale for $22.46, falling nearly $8 from $29.95. Size availability ranges from extra-small to XXL, but I recommend sizing down if you don’t want it to be too baggy.

4. KitchenAid's iconic stand mixer

Save on the KitchenAid stand mixer of your dreams right now.

Like everyone else who has been buying yeast and flour in droves, I, too succumbed to the quarantine baking frenzy. But on my first go-round making a sourdough loaf, I realized just how exhausting it is to knead dough by hand. I knew it was time to finally bite the bullet and invest in one of the best kitchen tools) of all time—the revered KitchenAid stand mixer. As someone who can’t turn my back on a good deal, I went ahead and bought the 5-quart model in the gorgeous Majestic Yellow hue when it was on sale at Best Buy. While it traditionally sells for $279.99, I was able to nab it for just $199.99—a truly thrilling deal if you ask me—and one you can currently get for yourself in Onyx at KitchenAid. Needless to say, my baking has most definitely been kicked up a notch since.

5. This spring-worthy blouse

The flowy fit is perfect for transitioning between seasons.

While much of the apparel I’ve been scooping up while in self-isolation has been of the sweatpant (and shirt!) variety, I couldn’t resist the allure of this gorgeous breezy 1.State Off-the-Shoulder Chiffon Blouse from Nordstrom. This sheer top fits just like the photo, with a nice, flowy drape and a hemline that’s long enough to cover the button of my pants (something I’m very particular about). I love it so much, it’s the very first thing I plan to wear when I can finally head out on the town again. While the Cloud hue I picked up is almost sold out, you can get a similar light Orchid Bud color in every size for $31.60—that’s almost $50 off its regular $79 price tag.

6. Madewell everything

Save big with this Madewell sale.

Ah, Madewell, my sweet Madewell. This is one of my favorite places to shop with or without a sale, but when I can actually save some money on one of their gorgeous tote bags or denim jackets, I'm all about it, friends. The retailer ran a few sales recently, but the one that's still happening, which offers extra 30% off all sale items and up to 50% off certain already discounted products, is seriously killer. My favorite piece from this sale—the big "get" as far as I'm concerned—was the Midi Slip Skirt in Painted Spots, which I'd been eyeing since last fall but had been too gun shy to pull the trigger on. I got it right before it sold out, so unless you snagged it then too, you're sadly out of luck. Fortunately, you can still grab a ton of cute styles to round out that 90s look that are oh- so on-trend right now, including this canvas tote ($52.15, Save $29.85), this comfy pocket tee dress ($34.65, Save $27.35), a pretty patterned slip skirt ($48.99, Save $49.01) and a whole lot more.

Zoom and couch-approved.

As someone who loves to be comfy, adjusting to a work-from-couch lifestyle wasn’t too challenging for me. To be honest, getting to spend my entire day in sweatpants has been a major upside to quarantine living. I prefer not to feel like a complete scrub though, which is why I stay on the lookout for cute loungewear on sale. One of my favorite outfits has been this chic matching sweatshirt and jogger set that I snatched up at Abercrombie for 50% off. In it, I can still look cute and stylish for the occasional Zoom meeting, and more importantly, I remain cozy. Right now, Abercrombie is offering 25% off two or more items, so the pullover and pants together will cost you just $73.50 rather than the usual $98. Though the joggers I bought are sold out in the high-rise style I bought, these similar Cargo Joggers, regularly $59, also fall by 25% when you pair them with the sweatshirt.
