Suitcase and Duffel Bag DealsSamsonite Outline Pro Carry-On Bag for $160 ($30 off)Macy’sSamsonite ($170)
If you're hunting for a hard-sided suitcase, this Samsonite is on sale. We like that the interior fabric is made from 100 percent recycled plastic bottles and that there's a storage pocket designed to keep damp items separate from the rest of your luggage.
Patagonia Black Hole 70L Duffel Bag for $139 ($60 off)REIMoosejaw
This adventure bag has a water-resistant fabric coating and backpack straps. We recommend the 40L version in our travel bags guide, which is an inch too large for domestic carry-on. This 70L version is even larger and definitely can't be carried on a plane, but it's a great massive bag for a road trip or if you don't mind checking your duffel.
Hip Pack DealsTroubadour Sling Compact Bag for $43 ($42 off)Troubadour
This sling is one of our favorite recycled bags, made from recycled polyester and plastic bottles. It has two compartments, a key clip, and a magnetic quick-release button on the strap. It can fit a bulky wallet, phone, chapstick, and keys. WIRED reviewer Medea Giordano found she could even fit a pair of over-ear headphones if she used a slimmer wallet.
Pacsafe Vibe 325 Sling Pack for $91 ($39 off)REI
If you're headed somewhere with busy streets and tourist traps, we recommend Pacsafe's sling. It's a favorite of ours for all the anti-theft features it has, like lockable zippers, slash-proof straps, and an interior RFID-blocking pocket. Plus, it's big enough to fit both a Kindle Paperwhite and an iPad mini.
Entertainment DealsOnePlus Pad Tablet for $430 ($50 off)AmazonOnePlus
The Android-powered OnePlus Pad (8/10, WIRED Recommends) can double as a laptop in a pinch and has an excellent display for entertainment. It's our favorite Android tablet, and runs Android 13, which has several tablet-friendly optimizations that make using it easier than past Android tablets you may have tried. There's a stylus and keyboard you can buy separately that are handy additions.
Amazon Fire HD 10 (2023) Tablet for $95 ($45 off)AmazonBest Buy
This tablet is our favorite for under $200–but you can score it for under $100 right now. Amazon's Fire tablets are (unsurprisingly) focused on Amazon's services and apps, but they're great for playing games and watching movies. There's no Google Play store, so it doesn't have everything an Android tablet would, but it's a solid price if you mainly want to stream something.
Sennheiser Adapt 660 Over-Ear Headphones for $199 ($56 off)Amazon
Epos and Sennheiser collaborated to create the Adapt 660 (8/10, WIRED Recommends). They've got great sound, a comfy lightweight design, and excellent noise-canceling. They're great on calls and Zoom meetings thanks to Epos AI if you're planning to take calls on your trip and have a 30-hour battery life.
Power Bank and Accessory DealsUGreen 145W Power Bank for $90 ($40 off)AmazonUGreen
Hate waiting for a charge while you're on the go? UGreen's power bank is one of our favorite portable chargers for how fast it can charge since it draws 145 watts (per the name!). It pulls 100W from one port and 45W from the other, and both are USB-C. It's surprisingly compact for its power level, but it has some weight to it at 1.1 pounds.
Anker 737 Power Bank for $90 ($30 off)AmazonBest Buy ($92)
Anker's power bank isn't cheap, but it's one of the best. It can send or receive up to 140 watts to charge phones, tablets, and even laptops. That speed lets it charge from zero to full within an hour. It has a little digital display that shows the remaining battery percentage and stats like the temperature and total output. You can charge it with three devices at once.
Chipolo One Bluetooth Tracker 4-Pack for $75 ($25 off)Chipolo
Chipolo makes our favorite Bluetooth trackers for Android, and the Chipolo One four- and six-packs are on sale right now. The Chipolo One Spot also has a four-pack on sale for a few bucks more, and works with Apple's Find My if you're an Apple user. These cute little round trackers are great for keys and bags, but if you're worried about your wallet, Chipolo's Card and Card Spot (once again, slightly more expensive and works with Apple) fits into a card slot in your wallet and is also on sale in two- and four-packs.
Incase 13" MacBook Sleeve for $32 ($13 off)Incase
If you're bringing your laptop along for your travels, grab one of Incase's sleeves to protect it from the bumps of the road or the airport security line. Select sleeves for the 13-inch MacBook are the ones on sale right now, though some sleeves are only on sale with specific colors.
