Camping with the whole family sure is a lot of fun, but it can quickly turn into a nightmare if you’re not geared up with the right tent. You wouldn’t want to get cramped in a tent that is too small or get soaked while sleeping as water seeps through everywhere, would you? An excellent option is the Big Agnes Flying Diamond 8 Tent, and it’s currently discounted on REI. With this deal, you’ll only be paying $640 instead of its usual $800 price tag.

The Flying Diamond 8 is highly recommended as a family camping tent. It’s spacious, easy to set up, able to withstand a wide range of weather conditions, and equipped with plenty of storage options, making it an excellent choice even for serious campers.

Crafted from durable yet lightweight materials, this tent is easy to carry and transport. The webbing and buckles are color-coded which eliminates the guesswork and confusion about which part goes where, meaning less time for assembly and more time exploring the outdoors. The tent also has a two-door design which makes it convenient for more than one person to enter and exit the tent without disturbing others. Both doors have closure options for ventilation (mesh only) and full weather protection (polyester layer).

This tent offers plenty of space for the family to stretch out and relax. There is an additional fabric wall included if you want to create a two-room layout: One side can accommodate six sleeping bags and two on the other. And with two vestibules, 16 built-in mesh pockets, and mounted loft loops, you can store your equipment, gear, clothing, and other belongings within easy reach.

An all-season camping tent, you can count on the Flying Diamond 8 to shelter you from a variety of climates. The body, fly, and floor are all made from breathable polyester and polyester mesh and coated with polyurethane to ensure a waterproof yet lightweight finish. All seams are also sealed with waterproof, solvent-free polyurethane tape for extra security in wet conditions.

Take your family to an exciting outdoor adventure with the Big Agnes Flying Diamond 8 Tent. You can get the wine/tan variant on REI at a discounted price of $640.

We see a lot of great vacuum deals from various retailers, but we’re extra quick to call out a Dyson markdown whenever we find one. As such, we came across this solid discount:

Best Buy is selling the Dyson V8 Cordless Vacuum for $350. That’s $120 off its $470 retail price. For those unaware, Dyson has long been cherished as a premium vacuum brand, and the V8 model is one of the company’s most popular products.

We’re constantly tracking down the best TV deals, finding the best savings on top LEDs, QLEDs, and traditional OLED sets. While the latter is predominately produced by LG these days, this is a company that’s been refining its OLED tech over several years. That’s why we have no gripes in calling the LG B4 Series one of our favorite budget-friendly OLED TVs. Speaking of which, the 65-inch version is on sale at Best Buy this week.

Right now, when you purchase the LG 65-inch B4 Series OLED at Best Buy, you’ll spend $1,500. At full price, this model sells for $2,500. We track OLED TV deals regularly, and we’ve really only seen the 48-inch size get the sales treatment.

The Apple Watch Series 10, which was just rolled out last week, is already available with a discount from the Apple Watch deals of Amazon. The wearable device's GPS, 46mm model was originally priced at $429, but it's now on sale for $399. The $30 off may not look like much, but it's a nice bonus, especially if you were already thinking about buying Apple's latest smartwatch in the first place. We're not sure how much time is remaining on this offer though, so if you want to enjoy a little bit of savings with our purchase, you better hurry.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
We gave the Apple Watch Series 10 a rating of 4 out of 5 stars in our review of the wearable device, which we described as "another strong entry in the Apple Watch family." It offers impressive hardware, including a new speaker that will allow you to play music and podcasts on the smartwatch, and faster charging speeds to replenish its all-day battery life. The health and fitness features of the Apple Watch Series 10 is extremely comprehensive, with the new Vitals app providing an easy way of monitoring your body daily. Unfortunately blood oxygen tracking isn't available in the US, and there's no definite date on when it will return.
