Why we like it

The Bose QuietComfort 45s are back at their all-time low price at Amazon — just $229, down from $329. We saw them hit this price during the Prime Early Access Sale in October, then again during Cyber Week. Now the deal is back in action, just in time for last-minute holiday shopping and/or holiday travel (they make a great flight companion). Between their immense comfort and solid ANC, these headphones are some of our favorites.

Why we like it

Make your own Fizzy Lifting Drinks with the SodaStream Fizzi One Touch, an easy-to-use sparkling water maker that makes getting your H20 intake a bit more glamorous. The machine itself comes bundled with a ton of extras — two 60-liter Co2 cylinders, three one-liter reusable carbonating bottles, and two different flavors of bubly drops to shake things up. It’s ideal for those who regularly buy pre-bottled or canned sparkling water, juices, or sodas and can ultimately help you reduce your single-use plastic intake and daily spending. At $124.99, this bundle is currently less than buying just the SodaStream on its own. You’ll save about 34%.

$3.99/month for 6 months (save $53)

Why we like it

Showtime is home to some top-rated originals, like Yellowjackets, Billions, and Shameless. As of Dec. 9, you can snag a subscription and binge them all for a discount. Through Jan. 4, the streamer is offering new subscribers a free month of streaming, then six months for just $3.99 per month (usually $10.99 per month). That ends up saving you about $53 in streaming fees. Just be sure to cancel your subscription before the seven months are up (including the free month) unless you want to be charged full price.
