What to expect when you’re expecting a huge baby sale at Best Buy

When it comes to “life-changing events,” the arrival of a new baby has to be one of the biggest items on the list. It’s also an item that requires obtaining a lot of supplies in advance of that new arrival. From monitors to strollers and more, there’s a lot to remember to pick up. Being able to get all of these in one place — and at a discount besides — will likely prove a welcome development for harried moms-and-dads-to-be. That’s why Best Buy’s new baby sale should prove good news.

Strollers

Getting that new baby from place to place is a lot easier with the right stroller, and Best Buy has several on hand.

Graco UNO2DUO. Built around a combination of plastic and polyester, this stroller boasts a 50-pound weight limit. With a front seat readily convertible into a bassinet-style platform, this tackles nap time as easily as on-the-go time. Independent four-wheel suspension helps keep baby’s ride smooth and an included basket helps keep additional cargo straight. Best Buy is offering this one up at $260, a 19% savings over the normal retail of $320.

Graco FastAction Jogger LX. A three-wheeled stroller that also carries 50 pounds, the FastAction Jogger LX incorporates a three-point to five-point harness that ensures it will grow along with the baby it carries. It offers one-second breakdown with one-hand function, ensuring that it’s tops in portability. It’s selling at $130, 19% off the normal $160.

Car Seats

Taking baby in the car requires car seats, by law in most places, so having the right one becomes crucial to any lengthy trip — or short one.

Graco TurboBooster Highback Booster Car Seat. With an open loop belt for easy installation and adjustable armrests and headrests, this car seat looks to provide versatility and comfort. Hideaway cup holders make road snacks and drinks a possibility as well. Best Buy offers this one at $40, 20% off the normal $50.

Maxi-Cosi Pria 85. The high point on this one is its security; the QuikClip auto-magnetic chest clip ensures an easy and secure connection, and the AirProtect system adds resilience against side impact. With a maximum weight limit of 85 pounds, it will keep growing kids readily safe. Buying this one gets shoppers a $50 gift card with purchase at $330, effectively a 15% discount.

Monitors

Keeping an eye on baby while in another room means peace of mind for new parents.

Motorola Video Baby Monitor. With two 2.4 GHz cameras and a 3.5-inch color display, this will keep new parents connected from anywhere in the house. A two-way communications system allows parents to speak to baby remotely as well. It’s selling at $125, a 50% savings over the normal $250.

VTech Video Baby Monitor. VTech will give Motorola a run for its money, offering two cameras and a 4.3-inch color display. Its 170-degree wide-angle lenses ensure the best in viewing. It’s now available at $170, a 15% savings over the original $200 price.

Best Buy is notorious for great sales, and this one runs through Thursday, May 16, so be sure to get in quickly!

The gaming laptop deals of the holiday season aren't over yet, as there are still some excellent offers, such as Dell's discount for the Alienware m16 R2 with the Nvidia RTX 4070. From its original price of $2,600, the machine is down to $2,100. It's still pretty expensive, but it's actually a steal at that price, and the $500 in savings is huge. You're going to have to be quick in completing your purchase though, as there's no information on how much time is remaining before this bargain expires.

Why you should buy the Alienware m16 R2 gaming laptop
We highlighted the Alienware m16 R2's great gaming performance in our review of the gaming laptop, and this configuration that's on sale comes with the mighty Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card. Combined with the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor and 64GB of RAM, which doubles the recommended specification from our guide on how much RAM do you need, the Alienware m16 R2 won't have trouble running the best PC games at their highest settings. It's going to be ready for the upcoming PC games of the next few years as well -- it will be a while before you need to start thinking about making any upgrades.
