There are so many machines created to help keep our homes organized and clean. Oftentimes we don’t have the time to keep it as tidy as we’d like, and these machines can be very costly. Thankfully robotic vacuum cleaners have become increasingly popular, and while there are a lot of different robot vacuums in the market, Roomba, a leader in the space since it launched in 2002, comes first to mind.

For a limited time during Cyber Weekend, you can grab a Roomba 618 by iRobot for just $199 on Walmart with two-day shipping. The robotic vacuum is listed for $269 on Amazon, which means this sale will save you $70.

Give yourself – and your back – a break with a Roomba that will take away that painful hour of cleaning. The iRobot Roomba is a robot vacuum priced that can handle the vacuuming for you. With self-docking and built-in sensors, you don’t need to worry about sweeping up pet hair or maintaining a clean household all by yourself any longer. These little robotic vacuums are a great way to lessen the daily workload of household chores.

Most people who purchase a Roomba are satisfied with how much time it saves them in their daily cleaning. Pet owners especially rave about it’s impressive ability to pick up dog fur and cat litter. You can put cleaning in the back of your mind by scheduling when you want the Roomba to operate with its scheduling operations feature. You don’t even have to be in the house anymore to have your home cleaned.

Having your own personal robotic house cleaner just became a little bit easier.

The Eufy Smart Plug Mini connected to a kitchen outlet.

If you have a lot of devices without smart capabilities, it can be a bit frustrating, especially if you want to turn things on and off by talking to Alexa. Luckily, there's a solution in the form of smart plugs that will let you switch anything connected to them on and off right from your phone. Not only that, but a few of them have additional capabilities, such as checking how much electricity is being used, which is great if you're trying to lower your electric bill by being conscious of your usage. While upgrading your whole home with smart plugs might be expensive, today is the first day of Black Friday, so there are a ton of great Black Friday deals you can take advantage of, and we've collected our favorites below.

The TP-Link Tapo Mini is one of the most affordable options for smart plugs in the market, but it doesn't sacrifice features to keep its cost low. Once it's set up, you can create schedules and timers for the electronic devices that are plugged into it, or turn them on or off manually through the Tapo app. You can also use voice commands for these functions, as the smart plug is compatible with smart home platforms such as Google Home, Apple Home, Amazon's Alexa, and Samsung's SmartThings, and the digital assistants that are associated with each of them. You'll get all of these features for a very low price of $10 for Black Friday, following a $10 discount from Best Buy on the TP-Link Tapo Mini's original price of $20.
