Cyber Monday is officially here, and retailers are offering notable deals under $50 during the event. You can also find sales on beauty items, kitchen essentials, tech gadgets and more, many of which are extended from Black Friday.
I’ve been covering Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals as an editor at NBC Select for four years, and I spent weeks combing through discounts to find the best Cyber Monday deals under $50 actually worth shopping. Each one I recommend below is highly rated and at least 20% off. When possible, I ran deals through price trackers to make sure they’re at their lowest price in at least three months. I’ll frequently update this list throughout Cyber Monday.
