If you haven’t invested in an Instant Pot yet, now is the perfect time to start your week with some great savings. A multi-cooker like the Instant Pot, combines an electric pressure cooker and slow cooker with other great cooking functions, all in just one machine. The electric pressure cooker minimizes the amount of time you spend in the kitchen by cooking your food faster, and it also reduces the number of kitchen appliances that you need to use and clean. It’s the ideal device to awaken your inner chef or to gift to your favorite foodie friend.

Walmart is slashing the price of the Instant Pot Gem 6 Qt 8-in-1 Programmable Multicooker with Advanced Microprocessor Technology, now discounted for just $58. The Instant Pot Gem is normally priced at $80. Be quick because this markdown will only be available until the end of October. This versatile kitchen appliance can slow cook, sear or sauté, cook rice, steam, stew, roast, bake, and warm, and is accompanied with a recipe booklet to help get you get started.

One of the biggest advantages of the Instant Pot is that it is designed to accommodate your busy schedule because it requires minimum effort. The easy-to-use gadget saves you time when cooking because it is faster than a slow cooker, and you don’t have to babysit your food once you’ve got it cooking. The Instant Pot Gem is safe enough to not burn your food, and automatically leaves it warm until it is ready to serve.  Its built-in microprocessor feature monitors the temperature and timer to ensure consistent cooking results.

This model is also able to remember the most recently used settings per cooking program for a more personalized experience. The Gem multi-cooker is suitable for cooking chicken thighs, lentils, chickpeas, soups, stews, sweet potatoes, and so much more. Many of these dishes ordinarily require hours or multiple pots and pans but with the Instant Pot, they can be prepared in under one hour with just one machine. If you are in the market for affordable cookware that will save you time preparing your meals, then grab an Instant Pot now, and start planning your recipes.

Hurry! This DJI drone just had its price slashed to $300
The DJI Mini 2 SE drone in flight.

Getting a dependable drone made by arguably the most popular brand in the industry doesn't have to set you back hundreds of dollars, as there's an option to shop Best Buy's offer for the DJI Mini 2 SE. From the drone's already relatively affordable sticker price of $340, it's down to an even cheaper $300 following a $40 discount. We're not sure how much time is remaining on this bargain because DJI's products almost always get sold out quickly whenever they appear in drone deals, so you better hurry with your purchase if you're interested.

Why you should buy the DJI Mini 2 SE
The DJI Mini 2 SE, which was released in February 2023, is a less expensive variant of the DJI Mini 2, which was rolled out in November 2020. The two drones are very similar, but the huge gap in their prices is due to a downgrade in the camera. From the DJI Mini 2's capability to record 4K video at 30 frames per second, the DJI Mini 2 SE is only capable of taking 2K video at 40 frames per second. If 2K quality is more than enough for you, then the DJI Mini 2 SE is recommended because it's a much cheaper drone with most of the same features.

If you're thinking about taking advantage of Bluetooth speaker deals, why not go for smart speakers instead? Best Buy just slashed the prices of the Sonos One SL and the second-generation Sonos One, with the Sonos One SL down to $159 from $200 for $41 in savings and the Sonos One Gen 2 down to $175 from $220 for $45 in savings. Either of these smart speakers will be an amazing addition to your home, but you're going to have to hurry with choosing which one to purchase because these offers are only available for a limited time. If you take too long with your decision, you may miss out on both bargains.
Sonos One SL -- $159, was $200

The Sonos One SL is a more affordable version of the first-generation Sonos One, but it comes with most of the smart speaker's most helpful features such as the capability to play room-filling sound with its tweeter and a mid-woofer, compatibility with the Sonos Controller app so you can search for songs and control playback through your smartphone or tablet, and support for Apple AirPlay 2 to easily stream music from your iPhone or iPad. Two Sonos One SL smart speakers can pair up for stereo sound, or connect with a Sonos soundbar to enable surround sound. The Sonos One SL doesn't have a microphone though, which means it doesn't work with voice assistants.
