There's only a few days left before Christmas. If you want to get your holiday gift idea in time before December 25, you better starting ordering soon. Some guaranteed shipping cutoffs have already passed, but not all. For example, Amazon Prime members can still get many items before December 25 if they choose Prime Shipping, but it depends on the item and it's availability. Of course, you can also go the gift card route and bypass the hassle completely. We've listed several great gift ideas that may or may not arrive by December 25. Hopefully it's not the end of the world if your gift is late. Better late than never.

Apple AirPods Pro Noise-Cancelling Earbuds
New MagSafe Model
Apple AirPods Pro Noise-Cancelling Earbuds
The AirPods Pro is back down to the same price we saw on Black Friday and it's one of the few Apple products that's still available for early Christmas delivery (edit: not anymore). The AirPods Pro is considered one of the best noise-cancelling in-ear headphones you can get, especially for under $200. The noise cancellation is considered to be even better than the Bose Quietcomfort because of the natural noise isolating design of the in-ear earbuds. If isolation and sound quality are of utmost important to you, then it's worth the $80 upgrade over the vanilla AirPods 2.

Apple Watch Series 7 41mm GPS Smart Watch
New Price Drop on the Green Model
Apple Watch Series 7 41mm GPS Aluminum Smart Watch
It's nice to see Amazon's latest and greatest watch, released less than 2 months ago, discounted during the holiday season. There's a now $50 discount, make it cheaper than Black Friday's price. The biggest upgrade the Series 7 has over the Series 6 is the display. It has the same always-on Retina display, but it's 20% bigger and features a more crack-resistant front crystal screen. It also adds on even more health-related features, like measuring your blood oxygen or taking an ECG.
Xbox Series S Fortnite and Rocket League Bundle
Xbox Series S Fortnite & Rocket League Console Bundle
The Xbox Series S console is $200 cheaper than the Series X, much easier to find, and plays all of the same games the Series X can. It's available on Amazon for Prime members, and it will arrive by December 25 (update: now it will arrive just after Christmas). This bundle adds some digital goodies for Fortnite (Midnight Drive Pack and 1,000 V-Bucks) and Rocket League (1,000 Rocket League credits).

PowerBlock 50lb Adjustable Dumbbells (Pair)
PowerBlock Sport EXP Stage 1 50lb Adjustable Dumbbell Base Set (Pair)
Currently woot (owned by Amazon) is offering a hefty 44% discount on a pair of adjustable dumbbells from PowerBlock. They are as well built as the Bowflex and the specs are similar. Each dumbbell ranges from 10lbs to 50lbs in increments of 5lbs. These sell out very quickly at Woot so if you've been eyeing a pair, you better not hesitate. Woot is owned by Amazon, so you can sign in with your Amazon Prime account to get free shipping.
Sign up for AT&T Fiber Gigabit Internet for $60/Month and Get a Bonus $250 Gift Card, Free HBO Max
AT&T Fiber offers internet speeds that's faster than the highest tier cable internet at a lower price. It's similar to Verizon FIOS except that it's more widely available. Get up to gigabit speeds for $60/month for the first 12 months and $80 thereafter. I currently subscribe to this service in the San Francisco area and I'm averaging 900Mbps downstream, 800Mbps upstream at the modem. Previously I had been signed up for the highest tier Comcast Xfinity cable internet and I was getting around 300Mbps downstream, 30Mbps upstream. Whereas I had paid about $95/mo with taxes and fees from Comcast, I'm currently only paying $60/mo (taxes and fees are already rolled into that cost) with AT&T. Sign up online and you'll get a bonus $250 rewards card and a free 1-year HBO Max subscription so you can watch The Matrix Resurrections when it comes out this week.
Battlefield 2042 Starting at $34.57
Battlefield 2042 for Xbox
Battlefield 2024 was released in mid November and already we're seeing a huge price drop. The game has received much criticism, and most of it is justified, but it's still a fun game. Since I myself am a diehard Battlefield fan, I've still put in over a hundred hours into the game. The biggest advantage of this game over prior games is that it is crossplay; so there's a bigger combined player base for every platform. Get the PC version from Green Man Gaming or the Xbox and PlayStation versions from Amazon.
25lb Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell
25lb Rubber Encased Hex Dumbbell (Single)
If you've been stockpiling exercise equipment to work out at home, you might have realized that the cost of weights adds up. You could be paying upwards of $2-$4 per pound of weights if you've been buying stuff at regular retail price. Deals like these aren't flashy, but they're very welcome. This 25-pound dumbbell costs about $23, that's just under $1 per pound. The weights themselves are rubber encased to protect your floor, and the handle is ergonomically shapped and the chrome finshed ergo handles are textured for a better grip.
LG Ultragear 32GP850-B 2560x1440 1ms 165Hz G-SYNC Nano IPS Gaming Monitor
LG Ultragear 27GP750-B 1080p 1ms 240Hz G-SYNC IPS Gaming Monitor
This particular LG Ultragear monitor is one of the best 32" gaming monitors you can get. The 2560x1440 resolution is nice and sharp on the 32" display, yet it's low enough to allow mid-range cards like the RTX 3060 Ti or RTX 3070 to handle it beautifully, even at the maximum 165Hz refresh rate for many games. The Nano IPS display is LG's version of QLED, and it allows for better color handling and higher contrast ratio. It's also G-SYNC compatible, like any high-end gaming should be.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Switch
Nintendo Switch
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Expansion Pass Bundle
Does this game really need any introduction? We gave it a 10/10 Masterpiece score here at IGN and even now it's still considered one of the very best games to grace the Switch console. It's normally $59.99 and although we've seen it for a bit less than this, you shouldn't expect the price to come down more anytime soon. The game is easily worth it at this price.

Starting today, the price has dropped to $55.99, the lowest we've ever seen for this set, and even lower than Black Friday's pricing. This set includes 4K Ultra HD and digital versions of the LotR trilogy, including both theatrical and extended editions.
RDS Nintendo Switch Game Traveler Deluxe Hard Shell Gaming Case
RDS Nintendo Switch Game Traveler Deluxe Gaming Case
The officially licensed RDS Nintendo Switch Game Traveler isn't some cheap, lightweight case.

Klipsch Promedia 2.1ch Computer Speakers
Klipsch Promedia 2.1 THX Computer Speakers
The Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers have been around for over 2 decades, but it's still considered one of the best computer speakers under $200. It's normally listed for $139.99, but today Walmart has it for only $84, a 40% savings. This THX-certified speaker set includes two satellite speakers with 3/4" soft dome tweeter with 3” midrange drivers and a 6.5" 200W powered subwoofer for some intense bass.

Dell is offering over $250 off an XPS gaming PC with some solid gaming specs. In addition to the RTX 3060 Ti video card (which performs as well as the RTX 2080 SUPER), it's also equipped with an 11th gen Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and dual SSD and hard drive storage. It's pretty much good to go right out of the box.

Alternatively go with an RTX 3060 equipped PC and save $250. Besides the video card, the difference between the two configs is the amount of RAM and storage: this config is equipped with 16GB compared the 32GB for the pricier config and includes no hard drive (only a 512GB SSD). If you're planning to play games at 1080p, the RTX 3060 is definitely the card to get. The RTX 3060 handles that resolution almost as well, even at frame rates of up to 144Hz. It's about as powerful as the previous generation's RTX 2060 SUPER and almost as powerful as the RTX 2070 SUPER. It can definitely handle 1440p gaming as well, although if you want to push 100+ fps, the RTX 3060 Ti is still the better option.

The KFC 11 Herbs and Spices Holiday Firelog
Walmart Exclusive
KFC 11 Herbs and Spices Holiday Firelog
For the fourth year in a row, the KFC Firelog is back for the holiday season. If you want your house to smell like Colonel Sanders' fried chicken without actually eating fried chicken (or while eating fried chicken?), then this log is for you! KFC does explicity state some warnings that you should heed: (1) may result in a craving for fried chicken, (2) please do not attempt to eat it, and (3) please do not put your face directly into the fire in attempt to smell fried chicken. Believe it or not, this isn't a gag; it's an actual, legitimate product endorsed by KFC themselves and Enviro-Log is the official manufacturer.
Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800 Charcoal Smoker
Masterbuilt Gravity Series 560 Digital Charcoal Smoker
The Masterbuilt 800 has everything you'd want in an easy-to-use smoker. It takes regular charcoal briquette which, in my opinion, is superior in flavor to electric and pellet smokers. You drop the charcoal into a separate gravity-fed chute, and the ash drops down to a pan below for super easy cleanup. Heat convection is accomplished with a digitally controlled fan; this allows for easier and more precise temperature control than a traditional charcoal smoker.

This workout station includes an adjustable Olympic workout bench with squat rack, leg extension, preacher curl, and weight storage.
Pandemic Legacy Season 1 Blue Edition
Pandemic Legacy Season 1 Blue Edition Board Game
Pandemic Legacy Season 1 is an outstanding board game. At BoardGameGeek, it topped the chart when it was released, and has sat at #2 ever since (Gloomhaven being the only board game that trumped it). Pandemic Legacy is essentially Pandemic with a huge non-linear cooperative campaign attached to it. Most people agree that it's a significant upgrade over the original Pandemic. The game is played across 12-24 sessions lasting about 1-2 hours each, and because of the branching nature, no two games will be the same. You'll notice that there are two variants of the game: Blue and Red editions. They are the exact same game with different box art. they are made so that some avid gamers can play the game simultaneously with two different groups; the colors make it easier to not confuse the two.
Lenovo Smart Clock and Smart LED Bulb
Lenovo Smart Clock with Bonus Smart LED Bulb
This popular deal retails for about $70, but it dropped to $39 on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Somehow, it's way cheaper now; you can get it for under $30. The Lenovo Smart Clock functions much like the Amazon Echo Show. In addition to displaying time, it can display Google photos, schedule calendar reminders, control smart home devices, play music, and answer questions via Google. To top it off, you get a free smart LED light bulb.

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K HDR
The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K normally goes for $49.99, but it drops to 50% off only twice a year: on Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday. It's actually no longer available at this price directly from Amazon, but you can pick it up at Verizon (you don't need to be a Verizon member to get it). This is the least expensive 4K HDR capable smart TV stick you can buy. The advantage of using a Smart TV USB dongle instead of the built-in interface on your TV is that you can easily move your saved profiles, logins, and passwords from TV to TV.
LEGO Marvel Infinity Gauntlet

LEGO Marvel Infinity Gauntlet 76191 590-Piece Kit
This is one of the coolest LEGO Marvel sets around. The price drops today from $70 to $55.99. That brings it just under the 10-cent-per-brick threshold that makes this set a good deal. For a LEGO collector, one of the biggest draws of this set is the sheer number of gold bricks... gold is harder to amass than than the standard LEGO colors. For the Marvel fan, this gauntlet features articulating fingers, appropriately colored infinity stones, and of course a fine base to mount it on.
New Price Drop: Razer Iskur Gaming Chair
EXPIRED
Razer Iskur X Gaming Chair
The price of the Razer Iskur chair has dropped by $50 compared to Black Friday! This is only for the synthetic leather models, not the fabric model. The Razer Iskur commands a high price tag for a reason; it's well-engineered with plenty of high quality materials and usable features. It's upholstered in multi-layered synthetic leather that's more durable than PU leather. There's also plenty of high density foam cushioning for gaming marathons. The reticulating lumbar adjustment works well and looks really slick. It also boasts 4D armrests and the nicest rolling casters we've experienced.

EXPIRED
NordicTrack Select-A-Weight 55lb Adjustable Dumbbells (Pair)
Walmart is offering an excellent price on a pair of NordicTrack adjustable dumbbells, far lower than comparable brands like Bowflex and Power Bloack. If there's any one piece of exercise equipment you should decide on, free weights would be a very good investment. These super popular dumbbells haven't been discounted for months. Investing in some exercise equipment at home means there's less of a reason to take the risk (and the extra cost) of going to your local gym. Because these dumbbells are adjustable, you don't need a rack of individual weights lying around. Each dumbbell can be adjusted from 10 pounds all the way to 55 pounds.

The 3rd gen Apple AirPods improves upon the 2nd gen with a longer battery life, (arguably) better sound, IPX4-rating for sweat resistance, and a MagSafe compatible wireless charging case.
