Happy December! For some of you, that means it's now socially acceptable to blast the holiday music; for others, like our team of shopping editors, a celebration of the biggest sales event of the year is in order.

$98 at AmazonThese wildly popular pillows are favorites of Amazon shoppers, and Yahoo readers can't stop scooping them up, either. After having heard nothing but raves about them for years, I finally bought a pair to see what all the hype was about.

I was impressed by how soft yet supportive they feel, and was pleased to find that their breathable construction kept me from waking up with sweaty hair.
