A rare deal on the Apple Watch series 10
Cyber Monday is one of those rare times during the year where you can pick up Apple tech for less. In the 2024 sale, Amazon has reduced the Apple Watch series 10 by £20. Released just two months ago, this is a mega deal.
Apple Watch Series 10: Was £399, now £379, Amazon.co.uk
“While at first glance it looks similar to the Series 9, the bigger display, thinner profile and handsome new colours make the Series 10 a lot more appealing,” The Independent’s tech critic David Phelan said in his review. “The features that have defined the Apple Watch, from subtle notifications, brilliant mapping capabilities on your wrist and above all, great health features, are all at their best here.”

This Nespresso coffee machine is nearly half price
If you’re the type of person that can’t function without caffeine first thing in the morning, an at-home coffee machine is the perfect investment. The vertuo pop is Nespresso’s most affordable coffee machine – and, naturally, it’s been tried and tested by the team at IndyBest. Spoiler alert: Lauren loved it.
Nespresso vertuo pop coffee pod machine: Was £99.99, now £54, Amazon.co.uk
Now, Amazon has slashed the price of the machine by nearly 50 per cent. Receiving a glowing five-star review, she praised the “small but mighty” machine that will slot seamlessly into most people’s kitchen countertops. “Weighing in at just 3.5kg, if you have a large cupboard and won’t be using the machine every day, it’s also incredibly easy to store away until you need it,” she added.
Don’t miss this deal on the Hotel Chocolat velvetiser
Now that it’s hot chocolate season, it’s the perfect time to invest in Hotel Chocolat’s velvetiser. With this deal at Amazon in the final hours of Cyber Monday, you can save £20 when you buy the hot chocolate making machine.
Hotel Chocolat velvetiser starter kit: Was £109.95, now £89.95, Amazon.co.uk
Similar to a milk frother, the Hotel Chocolate velvetier beats and whisks the milk and chocolate powder together, to create a silky-smooth mixture with a frothy top. When reviewing the Hotel Chocolat velvetiser, our writer said: “It takes two and a half minutes to make a Willy Wonka-worthy hot chocolate”, adding that the finished result was “rich and frothy and felt really luxurious”. Surely the perfect antidote to this snowy spell?
Hotel Chocolat velvetiser has never been so cheap, thanks Black Friday
