When you see a Staff Pick deal, you know someone at Castle DealNews has declared it a particularly noteworthy bargain. So allow us to quickly highlight some of the... um... highlights. (Of what are already highlights. It recurs.)
Pro Deal Tip: There's many more Staff Pick deals beyond the ones we've highlighted here. Keep scrollin' to see them all.
PlayStation Store Mega March SaleStore: PlayStation Store
Discount: Up to 90% off
Shipping: Digital downloads
Expiration: March 26
Video games continue to exist and the PlayStation variety are now discounted to varying degrees. March has been declared as mega by Sony and when you've got Silent Hill 2 at 30% off, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor at 75% off, and the heavenly Windjammers 2 at 60% off, I'd be hard pressed to disagree. Therefore, there shall be no such disagree from me. Instead, enthusiastic nodding and proclamations of great dealery, all while my colleagues exchange worried glances wondering if I'm ok or need a hard reboot.
Big Lots Closeout SaleStore: Big Lots
Discount: 50% to 80% off
Big Lots feature in our Staff Picks roundup for potentially the final time — their closeout deals are so closed out that online ordering isn't even possible anymore. No, these are close-proximity-out deals, meaning you have to conduct your bargain-hunting business in-store. But what deals await: everything at least half off. Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you got till it's going out of business. They've paved paradise and didn't put up any more Big Lots.
Biowind Smart Register VentStore: Amazon
Price: $40
Shipping: Free shipping
Lowest By: $10
Weak vents? The Biowind Smart Register Vent says "no more!" and promises to boost air flow in vents that are sorely lacking. A temperature sensor, a remote, and a price that has returned to the best we've ever seen ensure you will no longer live in vent mediocrity. Meanwhile, the display on the vent automatically turns off after a few minutes to avoid being a distraction. As a disdainful disliker of distracting lights, this is good. Very good.
Polibi 83" Modern 3-Seat Home Theater Recliner SofaStore: Home Depot
Price: $644
Shipping: Free shipping
Lowest By: $644
The key to this 3-seat recliner sofa is the ability to squish the person in the middle under the drop down table, and honor their noble sacrifice by stashing your 16-oz. bottle of Coke in one of the brace of waiting cupholders. It's a dark chapter in seat technology, but at least the 50% discount gives it a silver lining.
Mario Video Games for Nintendo Switch at TargetStore: Target
Discount: $20 off
Shipping: Pickup, or free shipping w/ $35
At time of writing, it is Mario Day — March 10, MAR10, etc. But deep inside, in your heart of hearts and darkest recesses of your kneecaps, you know it remains the Year of Luigi. Luckily, both tend to feature in most Mario games, among a wider cast of beloved characters, so even you Wario fanciers may have your day in the sun. Of course, if Nintendo were a little broader -minded in their approach to Mario games, we'd have a Mario Plumbing Simulator game by now, and that would basically render all other video games obsolete. Satiate yourself with these ten discounted games, until we can convince Nintendo to take the plunge, so to speak.
Newegg Mega Markdown Clearance EventStore: Newegg
Discount: Up to 70% off
Shipping: Free shipping
No one should be using the combination of words "Mega Markdown Clearance Event" unless there's some damn fine deals on offer and mercifully Newegg appeared to have delivered on this front, thus avoiding accusations of word crimery. The pictured the Aorus i7 15.6" Laptop w/ NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 for $1,199.99? It's a low by at least $99. The tone has been nicely set and only a brave dealsplorer like yourself is fit to delve into the sale at large and see if the rest of it truly lives up to these lofty expectations. In you dive, making sure not to touch anything you don't intend on buying.
