Left to your own devices, you won't be able to plug them all in at once. Seeking an outlet for your frustration? How about nine? (Amazon)(Amazon)
There's not an outlet in my home that isn't filled, at least some of the time, with a lamp, appliance or charger — cameras, computers, phones — of some kind. In fact, I considered switching many of my outlets from two receptacles to four, plus a USB port, until I saw the price tag: $50 a pop. Ouch. How about a cheaper solution? That's where the Qinliaf 5-Outlet Extender comes in: Instead of two outlets, you get five, plus four USB ports. And you get that all for $10, down from $12.
If you want to save a little on an Apple wearable, the Series 10 is still worth the investment. It boasts an always-on Retina display and comes with useful features like ECG apps, a fitness tracker and more. And while the Series 11 has just been released, it sports the same processor, same design and nearly all of the same features. In other words, you're getting the bulk of the 2025 Apple Watch here, but at the 2024 discount.
"I upgraded from a Series 5," said this watch wearer. "The battery life is phenomenal, I can literally go two days without charging. When I do have to charge it, it's full in about 30 minutes. The price is on par for the quality. The health sensors are nice. I know I have sleep apnea and never got around to taking care of it. The watch notified me after about a month of use and provides data to bring in to the doctor's office."
Never lose your luggage, purse, car, keys — anything, really — again. Just attach one of these smart tags to the item you want to track, and you'll be alerted to its whereabouts via your phone. The deal on this four-pack brings each tag down to about $16 (they typically retail for $25 to $30 a pop). Grab a few for your, er, forgetful family members...
If you've been holding off on buying AirPods until there's a sale, consider this the time to pounce. At $89, this pair is down to its lowest price yet.
Now, they don't include active noise cancellation like these do, but if it's a high-quality, comfortable listening experience you're after, these earbuds more than deliver. With up to five hours of listening time per charge (and 30 hours of battery life via the charging case), you'll be able to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more with limited interruption.
(Psst: AirPods Pro 2 are also on rare sale.)
Make fighting with your family members over power outlets a thing of the past, courtesy of this electrifying gadget. It's equipped with five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their iPads, iPhones, MacBooks (you get the picture) all at once. Oh, and it's so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor — and you won't have to worry about tripping over it.
No, it's not a massive discount, but this bestseller is within a dollar of its all-time low (and it's retailed for as much as $20 in the past).
Top-rated Sony wireless headphones for just $38? We're listening! At nearly 40% off, this is one of the best prices we've seen this year.
Ready for some Apple picking? Yes, we realize it's not fall, but you'll want to pluck this bad boy from the ol' Amazon tree and add it to your cart because it's currently down to its all-time lowest price — and this is the most recent version! As the unofficial Goldilocks of tech (less bulky than a laptop but larger than a smartphone), this tablet keeps you connected on the go or at home, and you can use it for everything from reading books to taking notes to watching videos.
Broida named this the "best overall tablet," owing to its "under-the-hood improvements, including a faster processor, more RAM (4GB instead of 3GB), Bluetooth 5.0 (up from 4.2) and a USB-C charging port."

Don't sweat the next power outage. Built-in surge protection will help keep all your pricey tech safe when it's connected to this extender.
This model, powered by Apple's ultra-fast M3 chip, was released this year, so we're surprised to find it on sale — especially at a $255 discount (its lowest price ever).
It's also one of the thinnest and lightest laptops you'll find, so can you really go wrong?
This outlet extender is already marked down a couple of bucks, but the real benefit comes from how it gives you so much more usable outlet space than a standard wall outlet. It's also cheaper than most power strips, and it takes up less space. That makes it a worthwhile deal even at full price and a no-brainer on sale.
Think about your most-used devices. What shape are their power cords? If they block more than a single outlet when you plug them in (looking at you, Google smart devices and Apple laptops), then you need an extender like this to make full use of the outlet.
Not only does this gadget provide more space, but it has a surge-protection circuit to guard your devices from unexpected changes in power. The Qinliaf Extender also detects the kind of device plugged into it and provides the appropriate amount of power, preventing problems with over-voltage.
With four built-in USB chargers (including a USB-C for newer gizmos) you never have to spend another minute finding a charger block. Just grab a cable, plug it in and you're good to go whether you're charging your phone, headphones or smartwatch.
Best of all, there's no installation required, so you don't have to worry about cutting drywall to install something like these pricey four-outlet receptacles I was eyeing. The Qinlianf is so inexpensive and easy to use that I put my money where my mouth (err…keyboard?) is and bought four more before writing this.
This fast-selling outlet extender has over 73,000 five-star reviews.
"I've bought a number of outlet expanders over the years and the early ones were terrible. Big, bulky, ugly and only added an extra outlet spot or two," said one fan. The Qinliaf, they continued, "is much more advanced, attractive and powerful than any other I have tried. ... Admittedly, I have not used the USB-C outlet yet, but I have chargers and cords plugged into pretty much all of the other outlets including an Amazon Echo, chargers for a tablet, iPad, cell phone and portable speaker."
"Tested for a year ... works perfectly," said another buyer. "It is trim enough to work behind furniture. Also, when lightning struck our neighborhood, the surge protection saved my computer, modem and router." (Phew!)
One homeowner pointed out that "this was an easy way to upgrade the outlets in our home without having to replace the receptacle. Not only does it allow us to plug in our USB devices but gives us more outlets for lamps, TV, media devices, etc. Very handy and seems to provide adequate USB power."
Customer criticisms are fairly minor. "[The] only small downside is the bright green 'working' light," said this shopper. "It's a bit bright for something right by my bed. I wish it were red (easier on night vision), but at least it's not blue (harsh for sleeping) so overall quite satisfied."
A final fan noted, "The only downside is that it has a 1,000-watt limit, which means this shouldn't be used in the kitchen where most appliances would exceed this limit." (Safety first!)
