Staff Picks: The Best of the Best
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.
GE String-A-Long 150-Count Net LightsStore: Lowe's
Price: $5
Shipping: Free shipping w/ $35
THERE'S STILL TIME. Don't let your dream of a properly illuminated Christmas fade just because it's Christmas Eve and you probably should have figured this out about a month ago. With a little bit of locational luck, you should be able to find these GE lights available for in-store pickup today. At $5 it works out at about 3 cents per light. Maybe working out the exact cent-to-light cost of this set is a little Scrooge-esque, but don't let some Dickensian Yuletide sentimentality blind you to the reality that that man ran a successful business, free of the piffling concerns of the hoi polloi.
Casio and Yamaha Keyboards at WootStore: Woot! An Amazon Company
Price: From $60
Shipping: Free shipping w/ Prime
Expiration: December 30
The correct reason to buy any Casio or Yamaha keyboard is to spend four minutes figuring out the intro synth riff for The Final Countdown by Europe. If you buy an acoustic guitar, you figure out Horse With No Name by America. Electric guitar? Heat of the Moment by Asia. If you're learning to sing, you work out the harmonies to Toto's Africa. Drums can be Brianstorm by the Arctic Monkeys. I guess bassists can take Manic Street Preachers' Australia. Thus we build the pathway to world peace. And Woot (an Amazon company, lest we forget) offers attractively discounted prices to get you started on the most important diplomatic mission of this roundup's young life.
Last Minute Seasonal Decor & Party Deals at WalmartStore: Walmart
Discount: Up to 80% off
Shipping: Free shipping w/ $35
Time has not expired for getting for last minute Christmassy stuff, Walmart is declaring loudly and proudly. At the time of writing, Lowe's is also declaring this as you might be able to see below, unless that deal has since expired and I've ended up looking very foolish. Now, back to Walmart.
An inflatable elf riding an equally inflatable polar bear at a price that has been reduced by $14, from $54 to $40? Just one of the wondrously festive item on offer here. And major respect must be given to the ceramic pumpkin bowl who is valiantly out there still making the cause for the aesthetically superior holiday. I'm with you pumpkin, and not just because you're offering a savings of $5 having been cut down from an asking price of $20 to $15.
Skechers Men's Go Walk Max Slip-On ShoesStore: Amazon
Price: $32
Shipping: Free shipping
Lowest By: $17
Goga Max insoles? 5GEN cushioning midsole and outsole? SlipWrapTightSeal technology? Only one of those three features has been made up on the spot but I'll never tell which. Instead, I'll tell you that the Skechers Men's Go Walk Max Slip-On Shoes are $32 at Amazon, which is the best price we could find by $17. Down with laces and down with high prices. This shoe, as things currently strand, fits both criteria magnificently.
