We are deep into the holiday season right now. If you are still looking around for a gift or two, however, you probably know how expensive it can be. This is why we are here to share with you the best deals under $50. And I mean actual deals with real savings, not just fluff. It can be hard to decipher which deals will truly help you save and which ones will not, especially during the holiday madness.
A lot of brands have been raising prices and then calling it a sale when the price goes back to what it was two weeks ago and, honestly, I can't stand it anymore. That is not what I consider a deal at all, let alone a good one. This is why my team and I search the internet high and low to bring you the deals that are real discounts, not the deceptive stuff. And with time running out to choose the best Christmas gifts for your loved ones, you will want to be ahead of the game while saving some coin.
My team and I continually track and handpick the best offers from your favorite retailers, including Amazon and Walmart, as well as others, for our CNET Deals text subscribers. I'll text the best sales at no cost straight to your phone, so you can keep an eye on the hottest drops and jump on them before everyone else does. It is never a bad time to save money, but with the holiday expenses piling up, affordable gifts are more welcome than ever.

More about our deals text curation
This is the good stuff, not just "discounts" on items that were artificially inflated last week. We vet every deal to ensure the price is accurate and that the product is in stock when we send the text.
We send out a major Deal of the Day most days. During big shopping events, we send two texts a day on standout sales. If we find multiple deals at an ultra-low price, we hook you up in a single text.
My team and I apply the same care that we do across all of CNET, just in a bite‑size format. With daily deals texting, you will receive the same level of deep research and the same confirmation that these discounts are legitimate. And there is no AI pulling the strings. Real people are behind these texts and the research that has gone into finding the best deals.
