5 Deals You Need to Know Today: Saving Instantly at Costco
Instant savings at Costco, and delayed savings at KFC — this roundup has it all, so long as your definition of "all" is pretty limited. Check out these offers and more in our roundup of the five best deals we found over the last 24 hours.
Top Sale Deal
Costco August Instant Savings Deals
Up to $1,850 offAny sale that includes both breaded chicken chunks and a laptop with an OLED display automatically becomes fussy colleague N. Gosker's favorite sale of all time. Costco knows what it's doing, and we are forced to respect it. But what else is on offer? TVs? Shavers? Groceries? Yes, yes, and thrice yes — not to mention toothbrushes, beds, and shoes. Variety is the spice of life, and Costco is Conan O'Brien swigging a Hot Ones hot sauce with practiced nonchalance.
Top Bed Deal
Euroco Queen-Size Murphy Bed w/ Rotable Desk
$280A Murphy Bed is, of course, what they were going to make Peter Weller's destroyed policeman into if the Robocop stuff didn't work out. "Asleep or awake, you're coming with me," it seems to say. Except the disembodied voice of a brutally murdered lawman coming from your bed is naturally the kind of thing that would keep you from sleeping for roughly one hundred years, so it's probably lucky the cyborg cop thing panned out. The replacement gimmick for the bed is that you can fold it up into itself when you're not using it. But even when it's closed up inside itself, you hear the muffled whispers, don't you? "Asleep or awake." No, it was the house settling. "Asleep or awake." No. Beds don't talk. Beds don't talk.
Top Tools & Hardware Deal
Vevor Clearance
Up to 65% offI can't explain why, but "Vevor" sounds like it should have been the name of a Saturday morning cartoon villain in the 1980s. It is lucky for all of us that they are instead in the tool and hardware game, otherwise they'd be finding a new and interesting way of trying to attempt world domination and/or destruction on a weekly basis, only to be foiled in a consistent but consistently inconclusive way by some beloved hero. Just kill Skeletor, He-Man! He's already a skeleton! He's held together by a purple cape and spite. End his terrible existence!
Ahem. Saving on Vevor clearance? You have the power.
Top Luggage Deal
Amazon Basics 14" Rolling Underseat Carry-On Bag
$25 w/ PrimeI get why they do it, but the marketing spiel for this luggage perhaps overeggs things. "The spacious main compartment is perfect for stowing clothing and an extra pair of shoes." "Glide through terminals with ease thanks to the smooth, rolling suitcases with wheels design, combining practicality with effortless mobility." "The sleek design of this travel luggage offers a modern and professional look." It reminds me of nothing so much as watching Gordon Ramsay videos on YouTube where he says things like "We'll add two of the most incredible eggs". "A tablespoon of butter, which elevates the dish, making it feel modern." We get it. Eggs and butter taste good, you don't have to dress it up so much. And similarly, a $25 carry-on suitcase tastes good, even without all the "sleek" talk.
Top Restaurant Deal
KFC Coupon Book
$1Kings of Food Coupons. Spending a buck on this book will pay off in the long run, leaving you happy and full, and leaving us to wonder what was going on when KFC hired Norm MacDonald to play the Colonel, then forgot to make the ads funny, beyond the everpresent hilarity of Norm's refusal to even try to act.
