November may be the best month to find discounts on just about everything.
Holiday sales began in early October, with major events at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and other retailers. Once those are over, sales come and go all the way through until Black Friday at the end of November. Of course, Black Friday and Cyber Monday (Nov. 30 this year) are still expected to have the best deals of the year. But with many shoppers planning to spread out their spending this year, retailers are offering bigger discounts throughout the month. They’ll come and go, so you’ll need to keep an eye on prices and be prepared to act quickly when things go on sale. But if you’re on top of your game, you can find big savings all month.
To help you shop smarter, Consumer Reports tracks prices of everything we test to let you know when they’re at great low prices. In addition to popular gifts such as televisions, headphones, air fryers, and cookware, you’ll also see sales on large appliances and mattresses, especially around Veterans Day, on Nov. 11.
Our data has shown that 46 kinds of products we test reach their lowest prices this month. We’ve highlighted 10 of the most popular items. You can also check out the latest deals at the CR Deals Hub, where we’ll be updating you on Black Friday deals throughout the month.
TVs
The holidays are a great time to find a deep discount on a new TV. Usually, you’ll find that the biggest sales happen on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. But in the past few years, we’ve seen big discounts starting earlier in the month, and this year is no different.
With countless options available, it pays to do some research before heading to a store or shopping online. There are plenty of highly rated models in our ratings from brands such as LG, Samsung, Sony, and TCL.
Our TV buying guide will help you get the biggest bang for your buck, no matter how much you want to spend. Consult our TV ratings to learn more about the different features and find a model that suits you.
The Roku 75R6C7 is a 75-inch model in the company’s step-up Plus series, which are QLED TVs with Mini LED backlights, sandwiched between Roku’s top-tier Pro sets and its entry-level Select models. Like many other models in this price range, this set delivers satisfying picture quality but a less-than-compelling HDR performance. It supports Dolby Vision HDR, and Dolby Atmos sound. It was $50 less during Prime Day in July, so you might save a bit more if you wait until Black Friday, but that’s a nominal difference if you’re itching to get a new TV now.
The TCL 65QM6K, the entry-level model in the company’s new Precision Dimming Series of step-up models with Mini LED backlights for 2025, does well for overall picture quality, but not as well in our evaluation of HDR performance. It uses the Google TV smart system with built-in Google Assistant.
The Samsung QN55S85F is the company’s entry-level QD-OLED TV from 2025, and it performs very well in our tests for both picture quality and HDR. It also has satisfying sound. Like other Samsung OLED TVs, it supports HDR10+ but not Dolby Vision HDR, and its Tizen smart TV platform includes both Bixby and Alexa voice assistants.

Vacuums
Vacuums, including robotic vacuum cleaners, can make great gifts for the right people, and you’ll find lots of discounts on top models around the holidays. This is also an ideal time to finally replace your old appliance with an upgrade or surprise someone with a fancy new model, especially if you’re hosting guests for Thanksgiving or other holidays.
With so many types of vacuums to choose from, it can be challenging to determine the best option for your home. To make the choice easier, review our vacuum cleaner buying guide and our vacuum ratings to select the right brand and model for your budget.
If you don’t have much carpet at home, the Levoit LVAC-300 is a good choice for a stick vacuum. While its cleaning performance on carpet leaves something to be desired, it earns top marks in all of our other cleaning tests, including vacuuming bare floors, cleaning the corners and edges of a room, and removing pet hair. It has a pretty good run time, averaging around 36 minutes—one of the longest among the cordless sticks we recommend.
This model was only $190 during Prime Big Deal Days in early October, but this is currently the best price out there.
The Mova P10 Pro Ultra Gen2 is excellent at vacuuming, impressing us with its ability to clean carpets, an area that other robot vacuum-and-mop combos might struggle with. While it’s not as good at mopping as it is at vacuuming, it’s still fairly decent. The model comes with a base that automatically empties the vacuum dustbin, cleans and dries the mopping pads, and refills the mop reservoir with cleaning solution.
The flexibility of the Miele Triflex HX2 is one of the things we enjoy the most about it. You can adjust the placement of the bin to either the top or bottom of the vacuum depending on the areas you’re cleaning in your home. You can also convert it into a hand vacuum. The vacuum is quiet and boasts exceptionally strong cleaning performance in our bare floors, edges, and pet hair tests.

Laptops, Chromebooks, and Computers
Laptops, Chromebooks, and computers make great gifts for the holidays, so this could be a great time to get a new device without paying full price. There’s a lot to consider when buying a new laptop or desktop, including the processor power, the amount of memory, and the screen size. If you’re in the market for a desktop, you can choose between all-in-ones or those that require the purchase of a monitor and keyboard separately. When it comes to laptops and Chromebooks, the size and weight may make all the difference, or battery life might be a paramount consideration.
Start your search with CR’s computer buying guide and recommended models to find a options that fit your needs and budget.
The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 714 has a 14-inch screen that you can fold back to use as a tablet. Its display is brighter than most, which makes it ideal for reading outside on a sunny day. That said, its battery life is longer than that of many other Chromebooks, lasting 15.75 hours in web browsing tests and 12 hours in video playback. Performance speeds are among the top in our rated Chromebooks, making this a great pick for a variety of uses.
The Microsoft Surface Laptop is widely considered to be the Windows equivalent of the MacBook Air, and this deal brings it down to a much more approachable price point. This 13.8-inch "Copilot+" model features a beautiful touchscreen display and Microsoft’s latest AI integration, but the real star here is the build quality—the keyboard and trackpad are best-in-class. If you want a premium Windows experience that feels sturdy, looks sleek, and wakes up instantly, this is the machine to get.
Air Fryers
Air fryers make great gifts for those who love to cook, and you’ll find plenty of discounts on these countertop appliances. But with so many models and sizes out there, it’s especially important to check out your options before you buy.
Among the models CR has tested, there was no discernible difference in the food the testers made. But some air fryers had easier controls, were easier to clean, or were quieter than others, so it’s worth taking a closer look at what each model has to offer beyond the price.
Learn more about the various features and other factors to consider in CR’s air fryer buying guide, then take a look at the recommended models to find the best one for you (or for someone else).
The Instant Vortex Slim air fryer, which typically sells for $120, is an all-around strong performer, with intuitive controls and quiet operation, and we found it pretty easy to clean, too. At 11 inches in width and 12 inches in height, it won’t be overly obtrusive on your countertop, though it is fairly deep (18 inches). It has a measured capacity of 4.9 quarts, five cooking modes (air fry, broil, bake, roast, and reheat), and one-touch programs to cook a range of foods, including wings, vegetables, potatoes, cookies, and more. It comes with a 1-year warranty.
The Cuisinart AIR-200 air fryer features a digital display, a viewing window, and a shake reminder to ensure your food is evenly crispy. It can roast, bake, broil, and keep your food warm, plus it’s dishwasher safe. We did see this air fryer at a lower price this past Black Friday, but it’s still a good deal right now.
At 22 pounds, the large, 5-quart Typhur Dome AF03 is the heaviest air fryer on this list, so you may want to just leave it on the countertop if you have space. It’s also the priciest air fryer in our ratings, so now may be the right time to snap one up. It may not have the most intuitive controls, according to our tests, but it’s easy to clean—with a dishwasher-safe ceramic nonstick basket—and it receives an excellent score in our noise tests. It has a self-cleaning function, and you can adjust your settings and monitor cooking in the Typhur app.

Headphones
Headphones are always a popular gift around the holidays, and you can often find great deals on top models this month. The best deals, especially on top models from brands like Sony, Apple, and Bose, traditionally roll out around Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but you can expect to see various sales and savings all month.
Whether you’re looking for true wireless earbuds or a comfy pair of over-the-ear headphones that offer noise cancellation, it’s important to research brands and models to make sure that the pair you buy will have the features you’re looking for.
Consumer Reports tests headphones in our labs to measure volume, noise cancellation, sound quality, and battery life. Before you start shopping, review our recommended models to familiarize yourself with the best options.
The AirPods Pro 3 are Apple’s top-of-the-line earbuds, and they’re jam-packed with features. The newest functions include live translation for overseas travel and a workout mode that allows you to leave your Apple Watch at home while you’re out on a run or ride. The buds still offer a clinical-grade hearing test and the option of turning your Pro 3s into an over-the-counter hearing aid. They also sound good and offer a better fit and noise canceling than last year’s Pro 2s. The Pro 3s don’t go on sale very often, so this is an opportunity to get Apple’s latest tech at an enticing price.
If you’re in the market for a premium noise-canceling headphone that feels a little, well, unique, there’s a lot to like about this Dyson On-Trac model. Yes, it’s made by the vacuum cleaner company, but Dyson dismisses the doubters with over-the-ear phones with superb sound. Like many Dyson products, this one sports elegant, upscale styling and a festive use of color. Better yet, the headphones are now back down to the best price we’ve seen.

Coffee Makers
Coffee makers are perfect for any caffeine lover on your gift list, and there are loads to choose from, no matter the brewing style or your budget.
Some drip coffee makers sell for under $50, while others that grind the beans or connect with your smartphone can run you well over $200. But you should be able to find the model you want on sale this month.
There are espresso makers and even pod coffee makers that can deliver the barista experience at home. And for the loved one who drinks iced coffee all year, you can often find big discounts on cold-brew makers.
Not sure where to start? Check out CR’s coffee maker buying guide to learn about the different types of machines and explore some of the top models.
You can expect a speedy cup from the Nespresso Vertuo Lattissima single-serve coffee maker. It’s convenient and has controls for brew size and strength. Temperatures aren’t the most consistent from cup to cup in our tests, though that may not matter much if you plan to add hot foam from the built-in milk frother.
Cuisinart makes several top-performing drip coffee makers in Consumer Reports’ ratings, including the Cuisinart PerfecTemp 14 Cup Programmable DCC-3200. It impressed our testers in our brew performance tests, meaning you can expect a great-tasting cup (as long as your beans are fresh). It’s also simple to clean and convenient to use, and the carafes are easy to hold and pour from.

Smartwatches
You’ll find plenty of big discounts on popular smartwatches from Apple, Google, Samsung, and other brands this month.
Make sure the smartwatch you choose is going to fit your lifestyle. First and foremost, it should be compatible with your smartphone. But do you want one that has its own network connectivity? How about a heart rate monitor? Or the ability to pay for purchases? You should also take into account things like size, battery life, and replacement bands.
Read CR’s smartwatch buying guide to learn more, then check out our ratings to find the best smartwatch for you.
Mattresses
Retailers always offer savings for Black Friday, and because of Veterans Day, the deals will start early and last all month. Expect savings from popular mattress brands such as Avocado and Tuft & Needle, as well as sitewide savings at retailers like Mattress Firm.
There’s a lot to consider when buying a new mattress, but your decision will depend mostly on your body type and sleeping habits. Some mattresses are made with organic materials, some incorporate coils and memory foam, and others have special materials like cooling gels. Prices range from a few hundred dollars to well over $2,000, so your budget will affect your choices as well.
You can find out more about bed options by reading CR’s mattress buying guide and reviewing our mattress ratings. A good mattress should last you eight to 10 years, so explore your options and invest in one that will suit your sleeping style for years to come.
Home Security Cameras
If you’re working to make your home more secure, consider home security cameras that you can set up yourself and monitor right from your smartphone.
Since smart security cameras first became available, they’ve only become better and more reasonably priced, and this month, you’ll find even better prices. There are indoor and outdoor cameras as well as video doorbells for optimal safety, no matter your needs.
Home security cameras can provide peace of mind by letting you see that your kids arrived home safely from school, the dog walker showed up as scheduled, or a package was delivered. And companies keep making these cameras smarter through software updates that add new features, such as person detection and facial recognition.
But most of the models we’ve tested don’t always deliver the high-definition video quality their manufacturers promise. And many models require you to pay monthly fees for some of the most important features, such as cloud video storage and monitoring zones (the ability to focus on or ignore motion within a designated area of the camera’s field of view).
With so many types of models and features, it can be difficult to know what to look for. Read CR’s home security camera buying guide to narrow down your options and find the best product for your home before you start to look for deals and discounts.
The hardwired Eufy Floodlight Camera E30 has dual 2,000-lumen floodlights that automatically illuminate when movement is detected, plus a 105-decibel siren to deter intruders and a two-way intercom to speak with visitors. This 2K camera scores well in our tests, too. It’s equipped with AI-powered object detection for people and vehicles, customizable activity zones, and motorized pan and tilt to keep them in view. It’s also compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home, so you can control the camera with your voice or alongside other devices from those smart home apps. You can use a microSD card to store clips locally, or rely on paid cloud storage. It’s been on sale at this price sporadically throughout the year, but it’s the best deal we’ve seen on a floodlight camera that doesn’t require a subscription.

Refrigerators
If you need to replace your refrigerator, you might be able to find a good price in November.
There are so many types and styles to choose from, whether you want a French-door fridge or a more traditional top-freezer model. You’ll also want to consider the style and features of the ideal refrigerator. Do you want a water dispenser? Is freezer capacity important? Are you short on space? Take a look at CR’s refrigerator buying guide to get a better sense of which type of fridge is most ideal for you.
The 33-inch GE GNE25JYKFS already matches its holiday weekend price. It was $150 less earlier this year, but since it hasn’t dropped that low in months, it’s unlikely we’ll see that price again. It’s a strong performer with a ton of useful features. In our tests, it receives excellent scores for thermostat performance and temperature uniformity, great scores for energy efficiency and ease of use, and satisfactory scores for its noise output (it’s not the quietest fridge but also not the loudest), icemaker performance, and crisper drawer performance. Its many features include an internal water dispenser, a built-in water filter, spillproof shelves, uniquely adjustable shelves that you can raise and lower without removing food, split shelves for better organization, and digital temperature controls.
The 30-inch LG LTCS20030S is a high-quality top-freezer refrigerator that excels in thermostat performance and energy efficiency, receiving top-level scores in both tests. It also boasts very good temperature uniformity and receives a middling score for noise output. But it falls short in ease of use, earning a subpar rating, and its crisper drawer receives a poor rating, meaning it won’t keep produce fresh for very long. It comes equipped with an icemaker (though its performance is less than satisfactory), digital controls, and spillproof shelves, but it lacks a built-in water filter and water dispenser. In our latest member surveys, LG top-freezers receive an excellent score for predicted reliability and a midlevel score for owner satisfaction.
