All the Best Cyber Monday Deals: From Amazon to Zappos
It’s Cyber Monday, and there are plenty of deals live and worth shopping. Most of the deals are similar to what we saw on Black Friday, and almost all of them are the best deals that brands have offered all year.
As you’d probably expect, all the big multi-retailer merchants — like Amazon, Best Buy, Nordstrom, Dermstore, and Ulta — have gone all out with steep discounts across the board. What I think is even more exciting is the sheer number of sitewide sales from some of our favorite brands. That includes bedding at Brooklinen and Parachute, Strategist-approved skin-care at Sephora, and high-quality athleisure at Lululemon. And don’t forget about all of the Cyber Monday mattress deals, either.
Here, I’ve organized all of the best early Cyber Monday sales alphabetically by merchant, from Amazon and Baggu to West Elm and Zappos. Most of these deals will last through Cyber Monday, but the discounts probably aren’t going to much deeper than they are now — and they’re already some of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen — so don’t be shy about clicking that buy button. I’ll be updating this post throughout the day, but if you want even more Cyber Monday sales coverage, sign up for our email newsletter and stay in the loop.
Amazon
Amazon’s had some of the best deals this weekend, and the selection is extensive. I pulled out some highlights: I spotted a Theragun for over 30 percent off, AirPods for the deepest discount they’ll get all year, and the snail mucin essence that Strategist readers can’t buy fast enough when it goes on sale.
Anthropologie
Take 30 percent off sitewide and an additional 40 percent off already-on-sale items. We particularly like the home section, where you can find maximalist sheet sets — Strategist writer Ambar Pardilla says the colors on hers “are still bright and vivid” after numerous washes — and nice-looking holiday décor.
Areaware
All of Areaware’s colorful and kooky home décor is 25 percent off with the code VERYMERRY25. (I’ve had my eye on these flower-shaped salad tongs forever.)
Away
Away is having an extremely rare sale, and all suitcases are 20 percent off. Quite a few Strategist staff members own our best overall carry-on, which has a robust lifetime warranty, is easy to store, and comes equipped with a built-in laundry bag to make packing for weekend trips even breezier.
Baggu
Baggu doesn’t often have sales, so 20 percent off sitewide is a pretty good deal. We’re fans of its commuter-friendly totes, cross-body bags — I’m partial to my trusty crescent bag — and fanny packs. But if your purse collection is healthy, you could also get our best (less expensive) beach towel. Select colors and styles can be found for even cheaper over at Ban.do.
Ban.do
Use the code GOBIG to take 35 percent off everything at Ban.do. We enjoy the site’s huge collection of colorful planners and desk accessories, and there are plenty of giftable goodies to be found, too.
Balsam Hill
Most of our best-in-class artificial Christmas trees are from Balsam Hill, which our experts say are the most realistic-looking trees on the market. A huge selection of lit and unlit options at varying heights are up to 50 percent off — and don’t snooze on the décor section to really zhuzh up your tree.
Best Buy
Best Buy was one of the first stores to post its Cyber Week sales, and the savings are surprisingly good, including one of our best digital picture frames for just $50.
Buffy
Everything at Buffy is 25 percent off. I’ve owned the brand’s Cloud comforter since 2019, and I’m excited to break it out of my linen closet now that it’s truly cold outside. Plus, most products have a seven-day free-trial period, so you can make sure you love your new bedding before you fully commit.
Calpak
Calpak’s sleek suitcases, bags, and other travel accessories are up to 60 percent off. I’ve trekked across the country for the last three years with the Hue carry-on; I particularly appreciate the front-loading pocket, which makes unloading and reloading my laptop in airport security much faster.
Caraway
Caraway’s latest promotion lasts through the end of the year. It’s a buy more, save more situation — so you can take 10 percent off orders over $85, 15 percent off orders over $425, and 20 percent off orders over $525 (plus a free kettle). It’s not a very big discount, but you can save quite a bit if you’re planning to buy a full cookware set, which are already cheaper than buying each piece individually.
Coyuchi
Take 25 off sitewide (complete with free shipping) at organic-bedding brand Coyuchi. I’m in the market for a new robe, so I’ve been eyeing our best overall pick, woven from Coyuchi’s fluffy cotton Cloud Loom material. We’re also fans of the fast-drying Air Weight bath towels and French flax linen sheets.
Credo Beauty
Credo is offering 20 percent off sitewide, which is a solid deal from the clean beauty retailer. I’m hoping to restock my beloved Everyday Oil, as well as finally try out Ilia’s skin tint, which is a best-seller with Strategist readers.
Cuup
All of Cuup’s ultrachic undergarments are 25 percent off, and select colors are up to 75 percent off. The brand’s bras are a favorite of Strategist staffers, with former writer Latifah Miles saying she has “never felt sleeker” than when she is wearing the Plunge bra.
Dagne Dover
One of our most-loved bag brands, Dagne Dover, is offering 25 percent off sitewide at checkout. Its sleek signature tote and neoprene backpack can both be found in our best-in-class work bags story, and the Ace nabbed the top spot as our favorite fanny pack. Several Strategist staffers own the fanny pack, which “holds its shape even when I’ve stuffed it full of my essentials,” according to our writer Rachael Griffiths.
Dame
Fancy vibrator brand Dame is offering 25 percent off sitewide through December 10. There are a few products that are extra discounted, like the Eva, which we named the best vibrator for couples.
Dermstore
Thousands of Strategist-vetted skin-care products are up to 30 percent off when you use the code STRAT. If you’d like to go straight to the best of the best, our best overall sunscreen and best overall eye cream are both 20 percent off. And I have my eye on Embroylisse’s makeup artist-approved moisturizer.
Eberjey
Everything at Eberjey is 25 percent off with the code COZY25. (The code stacks with already-on-sale items, which are up to 40 percent off.) The Gisele pajamas won our fashion writer Ambar Pardilla over with its light, non-clingy fabric — so much so that she named it our best overall pick.
Everlane
Over at Everlane, take up to 50 percent off pretty much everything, including the lightweight cashmere crewneck that earned a spot in the Strategist Menswear 100. For easy office dressing, consider our best work pants and a ribbed black turtleneck.
Fable
Fable’s surprisingly attractive dog toys and accessories are all 20 percent off with the code BFCM2023. The wobbly slow feeder offers added mental enrichment at mealtime, according to our junior writer Brenley Goertzen, whose Aussie mix enjoys knocking it around to release food.
Fly by Jing
Add a bit of spice to your pantry at Fly by Jing, where everything is up to 50 percent off. The brand’s iconic chili crisp is a kitchen staple, and is great drizzled on everything from dumplings to vanilla ice cream.
Food52
Use the code CYBER to take 20 percent off orders under $300 and 30 percent off orders over $300. There’s plenty of Strategist-approved décor for holiday hosting, the glass jewelry dish our readers buy in droves, and, of course, the brand’s huge selection of excellent Christmas-tree ornaments.
Free People
Until midnight tonight, sale items are an additional 40 percent off. Select apparel and accessories are 50 percent off at checkout. I spotted a lot of great winter layering pieces, including a precious striped balaclava.
Ghia
Many Strategist staffers are fans of Ghia’s nonalcoholic aperitifs, which are all 20 percent off. For a one-and-done mocktail, I love the spritzes (particularly the sumac-and-chili flavor), which are lightly bubbly and delightfully herbaceous. The new crunch hazelnut spread would also make an excellent gift.
Girlfriend Collective
For Strategist-approved workout clothes that are just as cute outside the gym, run to Girlfriend Collective because everything is 30 percent off. Select styles and colors are up to 60 percent off, like my favorite skort which I wear no less than once per week. It’s $43 in neutral like black and brown and just $25 if you buy it in limited-edition hues like emerald green and baby blue.
Glossier
Glossier’s sale is even better than it was last year: Everything on the site is 25 percent off, and your order is 30 percent off if you spend more than $100. Our best (less expensive) woody perfume, Glossier You, has an “enhancing-your-natural-scent vibe,” accord to Strategist beauty contributor Rio Viera-Newton.
Goldbelly
For food gifts from beloved restaurants and bakeries across the country delivered to your doorstep, Goldbelly is offering 20 percent off sitewide with the code GOLDFRIDAY20.
Great Jones
Pretty much everything at Great Jones is on sale, but if you’re going to buy one thing, let it be our best nonstick sheet pan. (You might as well buy the baking sheets to match — and make cleanup a breeze). And if you want an eye-catching, status-y Le Creuset Dutch oven dupe, the Dutchess is your best bet.
Hanna Andersson
At Hanna Andersson, take 50 percent off everything. We’re obsessed with the matching holiday pajamas, and the brand’s zipped onesies make a foolproof baby-shower gift. And several parents (including Strategist staffers) swayed us to include these organic cotton briefs in our guide to the best kids’ underwear.
J.Crew
J.Crew is having one of its best sales all year, as everything is up to 50 percent off. And since there’s so much on sale, I though we’d start with some Strategist staples, like our best overall button-up for men, our best black turtleneck, and our best cotton pajama set.
Lalo
Stylish baby-gear brand Lalo is offering up to 40 percent off, with the best deals being on bundles. The brand’s convertible high chair is our pick for infants, and its bundle comes with a tray, an adjustable footrest, a cushion, and a set of feeding accessories.
Levi’s
Levi’s jeans take up most of the real estate of our best-in-class guides to denim for men and women, and right now everything (including the clearance section) is 40 percent off. That’s about as good a deal as you’ll get, so I’ll be stocking up on my favorite fit, the Ribcage straight. And to outfit your little ones, kids’ denim and accessories get an even deeper discount at 50 percent off.
Lovehoney
There’s lots to choose from over at Lovehoney, including our best overall vibrator, the Magic Wand; our best (less-expensive) air-suction toy; and even an advent calendar.
Lo & Sons
Lo & Sons’ Strategist-approved travel bags are the cheapest I’ve ever seen them at up to 70 percent off. I’m a fan of our best weekend bag for light packers, the O.G. 2, which is well worth the price (especially when it’s half-off). But if you’d like to hit the under-$100 mark, the Catalina weekender looks lovely, too.
Lululemon
Lots of Lululemon’s covetable workout gear is on sale — though you may have to do a bit of digging to find your size.
Macy’s
If you’re primarily shopping for holiday gifts, Macy’s has some really nice options, including a faux mink throw blanket for $10 and cashmere-lined tech gloves for mom.
Maisonette
Maisonette’s carefully curated collection of kids’ clothing, toys, and furnishings is up to 70 percent off. You’ll find plenty of fake food and toy-kitchen sets, as well as some nice-looking duds to beef up their dress-up drawer — and all of it would make excellent holiday gifts.
Material
Material Kitchen is offering a tiered discount: Take 15 percent off orders under $100; 20 percent off orders between $100 and $299.99; and 25 percent off orders of $300 or more. I’m a fan of the brand’s cutting boards, and you can also find Material’s knives and cookware in several of our best-in-class guides.
Mattresses
There are so many mattresses already on sale that our writer Kitty Guo has been compiling all of our favorites here.
Monos
Monos are offering up 40 percent off some of our favorite pieces of luggage, including the reliable polycarbonate cases that frequent fliers told us are a doddle to keep clean.
Nordstrom
As expected, the best deals at Nordstrom are on clothing, particularly in the women’s department. (The Nike Air Force 1s are the cheapest I’ve seen them in a while.) Nordstrom is also price-matching sales at several other merchants, including Casper and Our Place. But there are also some good deals on beauty, like the Drybar’s blow-dryer brush.
The North Face
Take up to 40 percent off cozy outerwear, camping gear, and other outdoorsy accessories at the North Face.
Our Place
Everything at Our Place is up to 40 percent off. You can find several of our favorite items on sale — including the recently revamped Always Pan and some surprisingly chic glass containers that our senior editor Chelsea Peng says are “actually kind of happy-making to see in the fridge.”
Outdoor Voices
One sale I’ll definitely be shopping is at Outdoor Voices, where everything is 40 percent off (especially since the discount stacks on clearance items). I’m eyeing the new collection of fleece pullovers — and the matching kids’ version is adorable, too. For hunkering down at home, we’re partial to the brand’s CloudKnit line, which can be found in several of our best-in-class loungewear posts.
Owala
Through Monday night, everything is 20 percent off (excluding the recently released Vault Collection). Owala’s water bottles have earned a devoted following for their dual drinking methods — sipping through a straw or through the wide-mouth opening — and variety of colorful designs. I just purchased the FreeSip in the 32-ounce size and have instantly become a convert: I primarily use the straw and have noticed my water intake has doubled in the last month. (If you’re looking for 25 percent off the 24-ounce size, I suggest heading to Amazon or Target.)
Papier
Papier’s gorgeous stationery is up to 30 percent off, no code needed. Since 2024 is just over a month away, now’s a good time to nab a new planner; both myself and my fellow Strategist writer Rachael Griffiths own one and love how many beautiful designs there are to choose from.
Parachute
Everything is 20 percent off at Parachute, which is about as good a deal as you’ll get. I recommend splurging on our best overall linen sheet set, which are a lovely year-round bedding. Parachute’s plush cotton bathrobe is one of the most recommended bathrobes on the Strategist to date, and the down pillows are our top-choice pillow for back sleepers, too. Find all our favorite picks at Parachute here.
Paravel
Paravel is offering 30 percent off its entire site, which is the deepest discount I’ve seen it offer on the widest breadth of stuff. We’ve included the brand in our lists of the best weekend bags, best fanny packs, best duffels for travel, and coolest cross-body bags.
Piglet in Bed
I’ve been itching to try some of Piglet’s stylish linens, and the whole site is 25 percent off for Black Friday. We’ve named the brand’s linen sheets our most durable pick, with our editor Maxine Builder remarking that her sheets are “gauzier than ever but not at all worn down” after many washes. And with dozens of colors and patterns to choose from, they’re especially nice for kids’ bedrooms.
Primary
Primary makes colorful, non-gendered kids’ clothing that’s already fairly affordable, and now it’s all up to 40 percent off. We’ve featured the brand in of our guides to children’s clothing and shopping for trans kids and teens, as well as the Strategist Baby Registry, but I think the grown-ups’ section is pretty sweet, too.
QVC
QVC’s sale is great if you’re looking for a big-ticket item, like a Dyson vacuum or KitchenAid stand mixer — but it also has some nice gift sets in the beauty section.
Reformation
One of the sales I’m most excited about is at Reformation, where everything is 25 percent off. The brand’s cool-person-approved denim is a staple if you’re looking for a high-waisted mom jean, and I’ve been scrolling through the shoe section, where I spotted the triple-buckle Mary Janes from our best-in-class roundup.
REI
It’s not technically being advertised as a Cyber Monday sale, but REI has some nice discounts that end in the next week or so, so I’ve decided to include them here. The best deals are on winter coats, which are up to half-off, and camping accessories. I recommend snapping up a Black Diamond headlamp: mine has lasted for years without needing a battery change.
Ritual
Everything at Ritual is 40 percent off, no code needed. We particularly like that the brand offers several different multivitamin options depending on your life stage, as well as supplements for digestion and skin care. (I like the HyaCera, which is essenced with a vanilla flavoring that makes it taste like a Coca-Cola.)
Sephora
Tons of beauty products are up to 50 percent off at Sephora for its Cyber Week sale, and select brands will be 30 percent off for one day each through Monday. I spotted plenty of Milk Makeup, a buttery-looking lipstick from Saie, and even a gift set from Dr. Jart. Check out the rest of our beauty writer’s picks here.
