Strategy board game sale

Just in time for holiday family gatherings, Amazon’s put a whole cabinet full of strategy board games on sale in today’s Gold Box.

Highlights include Dominion, King Of Tokyo, and Tokaido, but there are dozens of options available if you click over to Amazon to see the full list. Just remember that these prices are only available today, and the most popular games could sell out early.


Vansky White Bias Light, $10 with code GT8OMP06
Vansky RGB Bias Light, $12 with code GT8OMP06

If you still haven’t tried out a home theater bias light, there’s never been a better time to pick one up. Vansky’s LED bias light strips plug directly into your TV’s USB port for power, and stick to the back of the set via built-in adhesive. Once you turn your TV on, the LEDs cast a soft glow on the wall behind them, which can reduce eyestrain when watching in the dark, and improve your TV’s perceived black levels.

We’ve posted deals on these several times now, but today’s $12 (RGB) and $10 (white) price points are all-time lows. Just be sure to use code GT8OMP06 at checkout to get the deal.


Oculus Rift + $100 Amazon Gift Card, $599

With the launch of the new Oculus Touch controllers, it’s easier than ever to recommend the Oculus Rift (if you have a PC that can handle it, that is), and Amazon’s making the price a little more palatable with a bonus $100 gift card, today only.

You’ll still pay the standard $599 out of pocket for the headset, but once you get the bonus gift card, you could use it to save 50 percent on the controllers. Or, you know, just spend it on anything else Amazon sells.


Lego TIE Advanced Prototype, $32
Lego Imperial Shuttle, $64
Lego AT-ST Walker, $32

Just in time for the collision of the Rogue One hype train and the holiday gift-giving season, several Star Wars Lego sets are 20 percent off their usual prices on Amazon today.


Fitbit Alta, $85

Fitbit’s Alta is one of the first fitness trackers that actually looks nice on your wrist, owing largely to its fashionable interchangeable bands, and you can pick one up on Amazon for $85 brand new right now. That’s a match for its Black Friday price, in case you missed out last month.
