The Instant Pot was one of 2018’s hottest holiday gifts, so it’s not very surprising that we’re seeing big sales on the popular pressure cooker for Cyber Week. What is surprising, however, is some of the steeper discounts that last year were confined to just Black Friday and Cyber Monday are extending to Cyber Week, too.
Normally $100, Walmart is selling the Duo60 model for just $49 and it’s available for pickup at your local Walmart if it’s in stock. We’re not sure how long this will last, so we suggest you take advantage as soon as possible. As recently as a little over a month ago, the Duo60 was $65 at the retailer, and we’d think a sale on such a popular product won’t last very long.
The Instant Pot’s versatility is what makes it so popular. There’s just so much you can do with this small kitchen appliance, and cleanup is effortless. It can be a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, and more. While larger models can do a whole lot more, the Duo60 has all of the most common features you’d need and is the cheapest.
It boasts a variety of user-friendly features, ranging from a slot on the handle to place the lid to a steaming rack with handles so you can easily remove it from the pot.
With a 6-quart capacity, you should be good to make meals for four to six people. Its small size, 13-inches across and 15 inches high, takes up little space on your countertop. It handles frozen meats superbly, so no need to thaw, and are safe to use. These aren’t your grandmother’s pressure cookers.
If you’d like a slightly larger size, the 8-quart model is also on sale at Walmart for $99, a savings of $50. That model however wasn’t available for pickup at the stores we looked at.
Now all you need to do is start looking up recipes for what you’re going to make in your new Instant Pot. But if this is a gift, you can even help them get started there too: there are dozens of Instant Pot cookbooks available.
Outdoor security cameras are not always practical if you live in an apartment or rental. Drilling into an exterior wall may be off-limits, while pointing a regular indoor camera through a window can create another problem once reflections start showing up after dark.
Baseus is trying to solve both issues with the new PrimeSentinel W1, a $69.99 security camera designed specifically to monitor the outdoors through glass. It mounts directly to a window without drilling and uses a 4K Starlight sensor with an F1.0 aperture for full-color monitoring during the day and at night.

Technology evolves every day, transforming how we live and work. Our devices are becoming more than tools we use. They are increasingly capable companions that help streamline day-to-day routines and spark creative ideas. If you have been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tech setup, the Discover Samsung Shopping Event offers an opportunity to explore what connected, AI-powered living can look like.
With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.
Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
