Black Friday can be wasteful, but this deep discount chops $230 off of a pro-grade blender that will last forever.

When Dodell-Feder tested this vacuum, it was a pricey $179 — now, at 45% off, it's down to what appears to be its best price of 2024. Oh, and you can snag batteries and a charger for 60% off as well!

So many retailers are offering Black Friday deals right now, but it’s hard to know what’s a good deal and what isn’t when marketers play fast and loose with the term "Black Friday" all month long. That’s why we’re here, though — to help you decipher the real bargains from the inflated list prices (something Amazon’s notorious for).
