The Ember Mug 2 is typically $150, but as part of Valentine’s Day deals you can get yours at a special sale price of $125 today, which is $25 down. Best Buy, who is offering the deal, is offering free 2-day shipping, so order now to make sure you have it before Valentine’s Day arrives.

Why you should buy the Ember Mug 2

There used to be a time where drinking your morning coffee was something that happened entirely before work, perhaps in a rush but just as likely in a leisurely manner as you awoke and read the news. Then, coffee became something that was made to go, placed in quickly cooling disposable cups to be quaffed quickly in the spare moments of our commutes. Now, with remote work being so popular, we’re seeing the rise of a new coffee meta altogether: The all-day morning coffee. The leisurely sips of the morning drag over into the seamless transition to the work-from-home workday. But as we get busy, our coffee stays out longer, and becomes cold.

That’s why the Ember Mug 2 is so cool. It keeps your coffee hot through its own internal heating system. What’s particularly cool is that you can chose the particular temperature you want (from 120 to 145-degrees Fahrenheit) so your coffee is always at the perfect temperature. No blowing and waiting for it to cool down, no disappointment when you get distracted and wait too long. It’s always just right. The battery life lasts for 80-minutes on its own, but you can also rest the mug on its charging coaster to keep that time up throughout the day. The mug connects with the Ember app, which allows extras like notifications when your coffee is at your ‘just right’ temperature.

Show your partner the full warmth of your heart by ordering an Ember Mug 2 today. You’ll get 2-day free shipping from Best Buy and $25 off. Remember, the usual price for the Ember Mug 2 is $150, so while this deal lasts you’ll be getting your partner’s for just $125. Oh, and don’t blunder while you’re ahead — pick up some K cups for your Keurig coffee maker while you’re at it, so you can enjoy everything right away.

A woman using the Shark FlexFusion.

Looking for great hair dryer deals to be the favorite gift giver this holiday season? How about checking out the Shark FlexFusion instead? Styling as well as drying your hair, the device is the ideal way to get salon-perfect hair from home. Right now, there’s 15% off the Shark FlexFusion range when you buy direct from Sharkclean.com. All you have to do is use the code FUSION15 any time between now and December 31. That means you could get a Shark FlexFusion from just $280 depending on the model you choose. Sounds good, right? Let’s take a look at the range.

Why you should buy a Shark FlexFusion
Particularly for anyone with thick hair, buying one of the best hair dryers is a huge game changer. However, it’s an even bigger deal if you combine drying with styling components. Many people love the Dyson Corrale for this role but it isn’t perfect and it’s much more expensive than the Shark FlexFusion. Going with Shark means you can budget for an extra gift or simply enjoy a considerable saving.

Smarten up your holiday scene with the Govee Icicle Lights
The Govee Icicle Lights.

Keen to make your home this holiday season look fantastic? If you’re aiming for a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation style appearance but want it smarter, you need more than just the Philips Hue deals going on. Right now, you can buy the Govee Icicle Lights set for just $90 at Best Buy so you’re saving $50 off the regular price of $140. They make the outside of your home look gorgeous while being super practical. Here’s all you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Govee Icicle Lights
I love Govee products. Since buying the Govee Lyra Smart Floor Lamp, I’ve been consistently impressed by how well its products work while being very keenly priced. It’s a different kind of technology than the best cheap smart light bulbs but it’s perfect for stringing together some lights around your home or room. The only downside is the company's app isn't as stylish as the Hue one but you get all the same benefits for a much better price.

These Linkind smart bulbs are 37% off, and have one of the best apps I’ve used
Linkind A19 E26 color smart bulbs matter support -- smart bulb deal

I know some people think that a lot of smart home tech is frivolous, and some of it is, I'll agree, but there are certain things that make daily life a little better. For example, I have security cameras, a video doorbell, smart lights, a smart garage door, and all of these things make living in my home convenient. With my lights, for example, I can create on-off schedules and I don't have to get up to use them. After a long day, that's a welcome feature, believe me. It's especially helpful with Christmas lights and decorative lights -- like the ones I have set up to automatically turn on at sunset on my patio.

With a smart video doorbell, I can answer my door, converse with parcel delivery teams, and shoo off solicitors -- we get a lot of them where I live. But among all of those experiences and devices, one of my biggest qualms is with the apps you use to interact with this tech.
