Here’s how you can get 2 years of antivirus software for the price of 1

The internet is a fantastic resource of fun memes and useful information, but it can also be a dangerous place for your PC and anything you store on it. That’s why it’s vital to have antivirus protection installed on your system at all times. Such software can keep an eye out for any potential threats trying to install themselves on your PC before they can do any damage.

Vipre is one of the fastest-growing names out there for antivirus protection and this holiday season, it has a great offer of two years of protection for the price of one. Aimed at providing a great alternative to more traditional and less user-friendly antivirus software, Vipre is affordable, easy to use, and provides award-winning protection. All its support is available right here in the U.S., too, with a great customer service team that is available whenever you need assistance.

If you buy it today, you get two years for the price of one. That means you won’t have to worry about any PC security issues for a whole two years. The only question now is — which package should you go with?

Finally, there’s the Vipre Ultimate Security Bundle. Reduced by a huge $125, the price for two years is only $140. In exchange, you can use it to protect up to five PCs from virus threats, dangerous internet traffic, and snoopers. It’s an all-in-one package that includes extensive antivirus tools, firewall protection, email security, and a VPN service. The latter means that your browsing activities can be kept entirely private and secure, even if you’re on a public Wi-Fi network. Your true IP address will always remain hidden which can also be useful if you want to bypass certain content filtering services. It supports various devices including iOS, MacOS, and Android, as well as your PC. Vipre Ultimate Security also offers a Privacy Shield tool for blocking webcam and microphone access at all times.

All these offers are available for a limited time only. It’s the ideal time to secure yourself with antivirus protection for the foreseeable future at a super low price.

VR is even cheaper: Meta Quest 2 just got a price reduction
A woman dives into action with the Meta Quest 2.

There are a lot of excellent VR headsets floating about, but a lot of them tend to be quite expensive, and if that wasn't bad enough, a lot of them also require you to have a pretty high-end gaming PC to get the most out of it. Luckily, there are some more budget-friendly options like the Meta Quest 2, which has just had a permanent reduction in price down to just $199 from the original $249. That's the second permanent reduction to happen to the Meta Quest 2, so if you've been waiting to snag one for a while, now is the perfect time to snag one up from Walmart.

Why you should buy the Meta Quest 2
While the Meta Quest 3 has already come out a few months ago, the Quest 2 is still an excellent option, especially given that the Quest 2 is less than half the price of the Quest 3 while still providing a ton of benefits. In fact, when you compare the Quest 2 to the Quest 3, you see that the big difference is that the Quest 3 has a higher resolution, better AR, and a better Wi-Fi speed, but it also costs $300-$400 more, depending on which version you go for. Similarly, because the Quest 3 is still relatively new, it doesn't have the same level of app and game support as the Quest 2, and while the library is getting better day by day, you may still need to wait several months before you see the same level of parity between the two.
