Stasher bags

A portable grow light
Why we like it
Save your plants this winter with the GooingTop LED Grow Light. The plant light has soft light and a gooseneck to customize it to your plant setup. It's perfect for small plants and green thumbs on a budget.
A pair of blue light glasses
Why we like it
Mashable's Lead Shopping Reporter Dylan Haas rated Felix Gray as the best blue light glasses overall. The glasses are well made, tintless — a rarity among blue light glasses — and far more stylish than other brands.
A compact smart speaker
Why we like it
The compact size of the Echo Pop makes it a great choice for smaller spaces like a bedroom, bathroom, or a studio apartment. Jam out to your favorite tunes while getting ready in the morning, listen to an audiobook while cleaning, or play non-stop holiday jazz well into January (we won't tell anyone).

An updated streaming stick
Why we like it
The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K, the latest generation, is all about smooth streaming — powered by a quad-core 1.7 GHz processor. This translates to quicker app starts and easier navigation when switching between streaming channels. Mashable reviewer Jake Krol reviewed the Fire Stick 4K and says it's one of the best options for the price. With 50% slashed off the regular price for Black Friday, this only becomes more true. You'll be set to binge your favorite holiday movies with a new streaming stick.

An inexpensive set of earbuds
Why we like it
Have you been operating with just one earbud instead of two? Do your kids find hiding earbuds to be more entertaining than feeding their vegetables to the dog? If you're in need of an inexpensive pair of earbuds, the Soundcore by Anker P20i true wireless earbuds are down to just $19.99 at Amazon — the lowest price we've ever seen. Do these compare to the specs of Apple's AirPods Pro? No. Do they cost a fraction of the price, get about 10 hours of battery life, and have water resistance? Absolutely. If you need an inexpensive pair of earbuds or want to try out earbuds for the first time, this set could be your new best friend.

You can connect up to 30 devices including smartphones, TVs, and laptops.
A new game for the Switch
Why we like it
If you love Star Wars and you love LEGO, this is the game for you. The deluxe edition includes seven downloadable content character packs and an exclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi playable character.
