What to buy for new grads who need help "adulting"
The first few months (or years) after college can be hard. Here are the best gadgets and tools you can buy for new grads who need help "adulting."

Star Wars Instant Pots start at $60 for May the 4th
A May the 4th sale is offering big discounts on Star Wars-themed Instant Pots for your culinary adventures.
Best Buy knocked $70 off the Instant Pot Viva
Instant Pots go on sale fairly often, but it's rare for them to drop below $60. Today, Best Buy is selling the Instant Pot Viva six-quart, 9-in-1 pressure cooker for just $50. This model's original list price is $120, so that's a significant, $70 discount.
The Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid works as promised, but only for small batches
The Instant Pot has garnered a huge fan base in recent years, and for good reason. Yes, it replaces your slow cooker and you can make yogurt in it (in some models anyway) but its real claim to fame is as an electric pressure cooker that can significantly shorten cooking time. Imagine braised short ribs in under an hour, or homemade pho in 30 minutes. The best part is that you can just set the timer and walk away, without having to tend to it like you would a stovetop version. It's been over two years since I purchased my Instant Pot Ultra, and it remains one of my favorite kitchen appliances. That said, I found myself lusting after yet another trendy kitchen appliance: the air fryer. The idea behind it is that it can "fry" foods with just hot air and without the oily mess that deep-frying entails. However, as publications like Wirecutter and Cook's Illustrated point out, air fryers are nothing more than re-packaged convection ovens. If you do want crispy "air-fried" foods, Wirecutter recommends getting a countertop convection oven instead, which obviously has a lot more features than just air frying.
Target Cyber Monday deals include a $230 iPad and a $50 Instant Pot
It used to be that Cyber Monday deals were the consolation prizes for those that missed Black Friday, but that doesn't appear to be the case at Target. It's already running a Cyber Monday sale that includes some steep discounts, including one that's even steeper than on Black Friday. Most notably, the 10.2-inch iPad is selling for $230, or $20 less than the already hefty sale price from Friday -- this may be your best shot at getting Apple's no-frills tablet.
Surprise: The Instant Pot is discounted for Black Friday (again)
Instant Pot deals happen fairly often, but as we'd expect, Instant Pot is offering some of its steepest discounts just in time for Black Friday. Its best offer is $85 off the Instant Pot Ultra 8-quart model. Regularly priced at $180, it's on sale for $95, which according to Camelcamelcamel, is the lowest price yet.
Star Wars-themed Instant Pots look like R2-D2, BB-8 or Darth Vader

The latest effort combines two crazes: Instant Pot and Star Wars. The multipurpose pressure cooker is perfectly sized for paintjobs referencing droids and other characters from the series, and come in three size options. The BB-8 styled Duo Mini 3QT can be had for $79.95, while a six quart version comes in three different paintjobs for $99.95: Darth Vader, R2-D2 or Storm Trooper. The Star Wars Instant Pot Duo 8QT is the largest one with a Chewbacca look, and it costs $119.95. Need any more reason to pick one up? They also promise custom recipes on the packaging. Darth Vader's Beef Stew BB-8™ Shrimp Pasta Dark Side Deviled Eggs R2-D2™ Rotisserie Herb Chicken Chewie's Chili They're available for pre-order now, and are scheduled to arrive in stores on December 13th.
The popular 8-quart Instant Pot Lux is at its lowest price ever
Instant Pot deals are becoming almost a daily occurrence. But since we're heading into the heart of holiday shopping season, all of them are worth considering for the culinary wizard on your list. Today, Amazon has the Instant Pot Lux 80 8-quart 6-in-1 model for just $55. What's more, that's the best price we've seen on this particular model, which typically costs $80. In fact, it's the lowest price ever on the Lux 80, according to Camelcamelcamel.
The best gifts for the home
Maybe you already have a smart speaker or hub. (And if you don't, we have suggestions...) But your home, and kitchen, can benefit from more than just a voice assistant to offer timers and weather forecasts. Yes, everyone's favorite cooking gadget, the Instant Pot, made our nice list once again, but we've also got some more advanced tools like the Thermapen (so someone nails that holiday roast) and Anova's smallest sous vide gadget. We've also included picks for any coffee fanatics you might be buying for, including the Pearl Bluetooth coffee scaled, and the Stagg EKG kettle, which is far more attractive than a kettle needs to be. Speaking of coffee gear, we have a whole guide to that coming later this week -- stay tuned! If you're looking to make a relative's home a little smarter, we like the ecobee Smart Thermostat, while we believe devices with displays like the Amazon Echo Show 5 and Google's Nest Hub Max make for more useful assistants than standalone (but cheaper) smart speakers.
The red Instant Pot Duo is $40 off today
After discounting the Ultra model last week, Amazon is back with another Instant Pot deal ahead of Black Friday. This time around, you can get up to $40 off the Instant Pot Duo, making the family-sized six-quart model $59.99.
Get up to $79 off a new Instant Pot Ultra
If you've been waiting to jump on the Instant Pot hype train, now is the time to do so. Amazon has discounted all three models of the Instant Pot Ultra, effectively making them around $100 each. The biggest discount, however, comes with the 8-quart model, which the company is currently selling for $99.99, down from $179.95. According to Camelcamelcamel, that's the lowest price Amazon has ever sold the 8-quart model. Additionally, the mid-sized 6-quart model is currently $109, instead of 149.95, and the 3-quart model is $99.95, instead of 119.95. Neither of those is the lowest they've ever been, but they're good deals nonetheless.
