Get a protection plan on all your appliances

Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.

Whether or not you’re a new homeowner, a home warranty from Choice Home Warranty could pick up the slack where insurance falls short and protect you against surprise expenses. If a covered system in your home breaks, you can call their hotline 24/7 to get it repaired.

For a limited time, you can get your first month free with a Single Payment home warranty plan.

Price: $10.00

Target's newest holiday hand towels add instant charm to any bathroom or kitchen. The embroidered trees feel classic rather than flashy, making them a smart seasonal pick that still blends with everyday décor.

Price: $14.99

This delicate bracelet adds a little sparkle to holiday outfits without feeling gaudy. The stretch band slips on easily and looks more expensive than it is. It's perfect for elevating your look this holiday season or for gifting someone a budget-friendly buy that looks much more expensive.

Pop & Bottle Peppermint Matcha Almond Milk Latte

Price: $3.49

If you love festive flavors but prefer something lighter than traditional holiday drinks, this new peppermint matcha latte is a standout. Similar bottled matcha lattes at Whole Foods usually cost $3.99, making Target's pricing a comfortable few cents cheaper for a sweet treat.

Price: $25.00

This winter-ready trapper hat adds both warmth and vintage charm. The faux-fur lining is exceptionally soft and blocks wind surprisingly well, making it great for winter walks or holiday travel.

Charging cables aren't usually festive, but this one changes that with a string of tiny lights that glow while you charge. Similar-sized Christmas light strings on Amazon often cost around $10, so $5 feels like a bargain for a practical stocking stuffer that adds a bit of cheer.
