Here's what we're spending our hard-earned cash on! (Walmart)
We'd like to take a moment to let you know that we here at Yahoo Life practice what we preach. That is to say, we don't just hip you to the latest, greatest deals; we also snap them up like any other smart shopper. This is especially true on Cyber Monday, when prices are deeply discounted on everything from sneakers and headphones to Apple watches and pizza ovens. We've been scouring the Walmart Cyber Monday sale and below are the deals even our team can't resist. And good news: Walmart is dropping tons more Cyber Monday deals today, so stay tuned as we update our top picks in real time ... and, you know, buy some of them!
Our favorite Walmart Cyber Monday deals:
Here are some of the marvelous markdowns from big brands (Beats, Crocs, Beautiful by Drew Barrymore) we made off with so far. At the top of our wishlists? A 22-piece cookware set from Drew Barrymore's Beautiful line for $98 (that's over 50% off) and these comfy, slip-on Skechers for just $40 (down from $65). One of our editors is even "scooping" up the Ninja ice cream maker while it's on rare sale for $149. Sweet.
Our expert advice: Don't wait. These deals are only while supplies last, so now's the time to add to your cart. You wouldn't want to miss out on our top product picks, would you?
It's your lucky day. The Ninja Creami is one of the most viral kitchen products of the year, but it's included in Walmart's Black Friday deals! This gadget can turn any frozen solid bases into ice creams, sorbets, milkshakes and more.
"I've been in the market for a new pair of noise-canceling headphones and I can't get over how pretty this gray and gold Beats pair is. And now that they are just $159, I think it's time to take the plunge! Not only do they have 22 hours of battery life, but the cushioned ear cuffs look incredibly comfortable."

"I am the queen of taking three sips of my coffee or tea and then walking away from my cup for an hour. Luckily, that's NBD with this self-heating smart mug from Ember that will keep my drink piping hot for as long as I need it."
— Julia Webb, Shopping Manager
"I've been a loyal Fitbit fan for years, but my most recent one just broke and I think the time is now to upgrade to an Apple watch. That way, I can not only count my steps and monitor my sleep, but also listen to music, take a call, check emails and so much more right from my wrist. I'm all about this latest version since it has a bigger display and is extra thin (I hate wearing something bulky). Now, the only question is — which color band should I get?"
— Rory Halperin, Senior Commerce Editor
"If you suffer from migraines, the Renpho eye massager is a game-changer. It massages your eyes and applies heat to help relieve pressure and pain. It always goes on sale during Black Friday, but $69 is an incredible early discount (it's 65% off!)."

"I've been wanting an outdoor pizza oven for the longest time. My tastes lean toward Neapolitan, which requires crazy high heat to achieve that blistered, puffy rim on a thin pizza crust. This oven reaches temps of up to 900°F — which may seem extra, but it's essential for making an authentic Neapolitan pie. This propane-powered oven comes with a rotating cordierite pizza stone, which is reported to conduct heat beautifully and evenly — plus the rotating feature means that I won't have to manually turn my pizza. While a large part of me likes that feature because it means I can pay more attention to drinking my wine, it's also incredibly practical for making a more evenly baked pie."

March your way into a loved one's heart this holiday season by bestowing upon them a pair of comfy, all-day walking shoes. These Skechers slip-ons have a soft, breathable mesh upper and memory foam insole for cushioning and support. Wide-width options ensure a cozy fit for everyone.
"I bought these about six years ago and love them — they are so comfortable and I can wear them anywhere. They're a tad worn now but still perfectly comfortable," wrote a shopper, proving these go the distance. It's not a surprise as 10,000 Walmart shoppers award the kicks with five stars.
"My husband and I are participating in a reading challenge, and we've upped our visits to the library by a ton! We swear by these little book lights because they let us devour our favorite books well into the night without disturbing each other. They're also handy when you're traveling — plus they're just $8, so they make a great stocking stuffer for the person who already has it all. I'm thinking of getting them for my mom and dad, both avid readers."
— Jessica Dodell-Feder, Senior Home & Garden Editor
"Now over $70 off, this multitasking tool from Shark serves as a hair dryer, styling brush (there are two attachments for achieving different looks) and a curling iron in one — you just attach the FlexStyle style to wrap, curl and set automatically. I love that it's compact for storing and traveling, and it's designed for all hair types. Important bonus: it regulates temperature consistently to help avoid heat damage."
— Kristin Granero, Senior Commerce Writer
"I own some kitchen items by this brand, and this set puts the 'fun' in 'functional.' It's so cute! I especially love the butter dish and I know the spoon rest would help spare my counter from saucy messes while making dinner. It's an incredible price point for such a large set — it ould make a lovely gift if you're not tempted to keep it for yourself."
— Britt Ross, Senior Deals Writer
"It's not for me, but after researching, I decided to get this Razor scooter for my niece — it comes in this pretty pink and a bright green, too. It's lightweight for transporting and has rear foot brakes for added safety. It goes up to 10 mph, which is fast enough to give her an adrenaline rush but not as fast as some of the other models I've seen (Walmart has a current sale on helmets, a necessity). I also have my eye on Lego's Harry Potter Castle and Forbidden Forest for some of the younger kids in my family."
