Today’s deals

From OXO

OXO Brew 9 Cup Coffee Maker
$160 $200 from OXO
Use code HOME20

If you want the holy trinity of convenience, quality, and quantity, use the coupon code for a great deal on our top drip coffee maker pick. We especially like this option because it's programmable and you can have a hot cup of joe ready and waiting when you wake up in the morning, and then a hot carafe to last you the rest of the day (or at least until lunch). This deal matches the second best price we've seen within the past year.

OXO Brew Adjustable Temperature Pour-Over Kettle
$80 $100 from OXO
Use code HOME20

Although we saw an all time low of $75 early in March, this is still a great deal if you missed that discount on the gooseneck option in our electric kettle guide. We recommend it for pour-over coffee making and tea lovers who want spot-on temperature accuracy. Don't forget to use the coupon code to get the deal.

Under $25

Finum Brewing Basket
$9 $12 from Amazon

Matching the previous low, this is a solid deal for our top tea steeper. The fine-mesh and plastic steeping basket allows water to flow easily, while also effectively keeping tea particles out of your drink. The large size is one of the only models we tested that fit mugs and teapots, and it’s also one the easiest options to clean.

Hydro Flask 12 oz Coffee Mug
$23 $30 from Hydro Flask
Use code RAPIDSHIP20

If you need a vessel for your hot drink, this deal for a double-wall-insulated coffee mug is still kicking. We like it in our blog piece about our favorite things for making and drinking coffee on the go. It's great if you prefer the feel of a mug, but don't want your drink going cold. Don't forget to use the coupon code for free shipping. Deal price reflects in cart.

Hydro Flask 22-Ounce Tumbler (Pacific)
$23 $30 from Hydro Flask
Use code RAPIDSHIP20

For more volume, use the same code on our top tumbler pick. Although we consider the tumbler to be the ultimate commuter vessel, they're also great for keeping drinks hot or cold in most everyday situations. It retains temperatures well and lets you sip easily while going about your daily tasks. Deal price reflects in cart.

It’s Still Safe to Order Food Delivery From Restaurants. Just Take These Basic Precautions.

You may not need to sanitize the food that arrives from delivery or takeout, but you should definitely be washing your hands.

The Best Tampons

A tampon should be two things: comfortable and functional. It should be easy to insert and remove, it should absorb the amount of menstrual fluid its label says it will, and it should keep that fluid contained.

The Best Dutch Oven

A Dutch oven is a kitchen workhorse—it’s the one pot that can turn out savory soups and stews, braise meats until they’re fall-apart tender, and even bake crusty bread.
