Cyber Monday is here. To find the best deals in every category, follow all of our Cyber Monday coverage

Though it feels like it’s been Black Friday for a full month now, I have good news for those who held out for the weekend and Cyber Monday: Some things have become even cheaper. We’ve been covering the early Black Friday deals for weeks and keeping track of which brands have been unusually quiet or unabashedly loud. Now that it’s here, some brands have dropped prices even more, including J.Crew, Parachute, Calpak, Lululemon, Material Kitchen, and Outdoor Voices. And several big-ticket items have become a little cheaper on Amazon, including mattresses and Vitamixes.

Cyber Monday is winding down, so if you’ve been procrastinating, now’s the time to shop. Be sure to check out the master list of Cyber Week deals that our deals editor Sam Daly has curated and, as always, sign up for our newsletter to make sure you don’t miss anything.

Deals I Personally Think Are Best

We’re nearing the end of Cyber Week, so let’s get serious. Outdoor Voices gym shorts for $12? That’s the kind of deep discount that I’m talking about, especially as lots of sizes and colors are still available. (Just note that the full discount won’t show up until you’ve added items to your cart.) I also noticed that many of Lululemon’s offerings got cheaper today, including the brand’s beloved (and usually rather expensive) Wunder Train yoga pants. And Material Kitchen’s Cyber Monday sale has upped the ante by offering an extra 10 percent off everything, including stuff that was already on sale, using the code EXTRA10. I own and use its reBoard (our best overall chopping board) every day.

Now, for the deals

All robes are 50 percent off on the Parachute site for today only. This is our favorite superplush one.

I also like this more lightweight waffle style.

Lisa Says Gah girls, now is your time. The brand is offering an additional 40 percent off all sale items, just for today.

Which makes this flouncy midi skirt $40 cheaper until midnight tonight.

Apple AirTag 4-Pack
$70

AirTags got a few dollars cheaper today, in time for holiday travel. Apple recently announced it will integrate its AirTags with the customer service at more than 15 airlines, making it even easier to use them for luggage tracking.

Crockpot Electric Lunch Box
$35
$35

Strategist junior writer Bella Druckman bought this portable crockpot as a gift for her boyfriend and says it’s ideal for “warming up stews and soups.” It went down in price by $5 this morning.

Sandy Liang’s beloved Merrell slides are $13 cheaper today.

Tatcha has been offering 25 percent off across its entire site for Cyber Week, but now Amazon has come close to matching it, with 24 percent off many beloved products.

iRobot Roomba Combo j9+
$1,200

We love this iRobot, which is a new friend and vacuum cleaner in one. The price decreased by $400 today on iRobot’s website.

Calpak is offering an extra 10 percent off everything this Cyber Monday, but the discount code expires at 5PM, so act quickly. This woven backpack is ideal for commuting.

And many travel experts I’ve interviewed over the years have recommended this waterproof Terra duffel, especially as a personal item on planes.

And this cute little carry-on suitcase also comes highly recommended. I’ve tested one and really like how the interior pockets are laid out.

The discount on this Airwrap is heating up, with $8 off yesterday’s price.

Crocs Dylan Clog
$39

The stylish Crocs recommended by our style columnist Chris Black are $5 cheaper for Cyber Monday.

$48

The only jeans that really matter, Levi’s 501s, are $20 cheaper.

From $126

And these stomp-y Oxfords went down by $24.

Zappos has deeper discounts today, including on these lovely bejeweled flats.

Or these winter boots might make a slightly more practical purchase.

I’ve been tracking the best Lululemon deals for the past week, and these shorts are now $5 cheaper than they were on Black Friday.

These high pants have an even lower price, decreasing to $59 from $79.

It might be worth throwing in this skort with the Outdoor Voices shorts above. (Again, a reminder that the full discount won’t show up until you’ve added items to your cart.)

Or this exercise dress in black, navy, or green.

Nordstrom has been adding new items to its Cyber Week sale section daily, including some nice underthings from Skims (a brand we really like, sometimes in spite of ourselves).

A stretchy, formfitting tee to match.

These are real leather! The Alexa Chung look for under $100.

The classy J.Crew PJs that Ottessa Moshfegh wears to bed went down by 10 whole dollars.

Also a little cheaper is this V-neck sweater that’ll keep you warm and help you participate in the layering trend of the season.

The wonder retailer Quince has some new deals today, too, including a 29 percent discount on this puffer that kept me warm last winter.

This mattress is a whole $100 cheaper than when we wrote about it last week. Which I imagine would really help you sleep better at night upon purchasing it.

A prep bowl, a fruit bowl, a serving bowl? For $18, I’d probably even let my dog eat out of it.

I use this knife every day, and it is far better than any other blade that I’ve tried in the sub-$150 price range. The perfect weight, and it can handle tough-skinned winter squash.

I like it so much that I’m very tempted to buy its little brother for just $35.

REI doesn’t participate in Black Friday, but its Cyber Monday discounts just dropped and will last through December 2. I immediately scouted for Arc’teryx, and this was the best deal I found on the pricey (but worth it) outdoor brand.

Men’s sizing gets the same 30 percent discount.
