Following up yesterday’s Last Chance sale, Best Buy is back today with a series of flash deals live through the end of the day. With a collection of offers on Apple gear, headphones, and more on sale, there are plenty of other ways to get some last-minute gifts checked off the list without paying full price. Shipping is free across the board in orders over $35 and curbside pickup is also available here, as well to ensure it’s under the tree ahead of the big day. Shop everything right here or head below for our top picks.

Headlining today’s flash sale at Best Buy is the Apple HomePod at $249.99. Down from $299, price cuts on Apple’s high-end smart speaker have been hard to come by this holiday season. While we saw it drop to $210 for an open-box model over Black Friday, this is the best offer in months otherwise. HomePod delivers a fabric-wrapped design alongside a touchpad on the top for summoning Siri and adjusting playback. There’s also AirPlay 2 integration, stereo support, and access to Apple Music. Get all the details in our hands-on review.
