- Western Digital Black 5TB Portable Hard Drive $100 (expired)
Western Digital Black 5TB P10 Game Drive for $125, and code 93XQU39 applies $25 off in the cart.
Normally sells for $120 to $150, and rarely priced under $125.
Compatible with PC and Mac, we feel this 5TB hard drive is great for backups of photos, videos, and other personal data.
Its purpose could also be additional storage for a PlayStation 4 and newer, and Xbox One and newer.
This is a portable hard drive, smaller than a 3.5" internal and an external/desktop hard drive, and is warrantied by Western Digital for 3 years.
Newegg sold-out of this hard drive within one day, when it last went on sale for $100.

Charges one device up to 90W, or two devices simultaneously up to 45/45W or 60/30W.
Comes with a 4-foot USB-C cable rated up to 100W power delivery, a nice thing to include since it would normally sell for about $10 by itself.

No longer available at this price.

- Hisense 75" TV for $600
Hisense 75-inch 4K TV with Android for $600.
We are unsure of the long-term reliability of this TV, especially for a $600 purchase, although the TV has a lot of positive reviews on BestBuy.com.
The reviewers say the quality is good.
A 75-inch for $600 is a very good deal, and the built-in Android operating system can run just about every streaming TV app available.

- TCL 75" 4K TV for $590
TCL 75-inch Class-4 4K TV with Android operating system for $590.
Normally, a 75-inch TV would sell for about $700.
Our family owns TCL televisions and believe they are good value.
Picture quality of their Class-4 series is not as good as Samsung and Sony, but very good considering TCL costs less.
The built-in Android can run Android TV apps,
with about the same selection of apps that you would find on a Roku.
Plus, Android lets you "Cast" videos to the TV from mobile devices and laptops, effectively turning any smart device into a remote control for the TV.
