The 10 Best Deals of April 4, 2019

We see a lot of deals around the web over on Kinja Deals, but these were our ten favorites today.

#1: Nordstrom Rack

A new season calls for a new handbag. Add one of these Hobo purses, any of which would be perfect for spring, to your collection for less than usual thanks to a sale happening now at Nordstrom Rack. A wide selection of leather totes, shoulder bags, crossbody bags, clutches, wallets, and more are available for about half off, so all your stuff can travel with you in style. Just be sure to choose your new go-to bag before it sells out.

#2: TIMBUK2 CLASSIC MESSENGER

Timbuk2's classic messenger bags aren’t flashy. They aren’t made of rich corinthian leather, they don’t have built-in battery packs, there’s no waiting list to buy them at a high-end department store. But they are versatile, extremely well-made, and should last you pretty much forever (and they come with a lifetime warranty if they don’t).

Today on Amazon, the standard, medium, black messenger is down to $50, within $6 of an all-time low, and a great buy for anyone who’s not happy with how they currently carry their laptop.

#3: PENGUIN SALE

New on-sale spring styles await at Original Penguin. Right now, take an extra 40% off select styles, including cool button-downs, polos, tees, shoes, shorts, pants, and swimwear. No need to use a promo code, just snag your clothes ASAP, since this sale ends tomorrow.

#4: ANKER QI PAD

Most Qi wireless chargers can charge select Android devices at 10W speeds, and iPhones at 5W. But a select few are able to max out the iPhone, and eke out 7.5W on Apple’s handsets...for a price. But with today’s exclusive deal on Anker’s PowerWave charging pad, you’re barely paying a premium.

Promo code KJWIRELESS will bring the pad down to $12 at checkout, which is half its usual price, $5 less than its current sale price, and the best deal we’ve ever seen on a 7.5W Qi charger. The only catch is that you’ll need to plug it into a Quick Charge 3.0 USB port for it to operate properly, as it customary for 7.5W chargers, and it doesn’t include one in the box. You likely have one lying around somewhere, but if not, Anker would be happy to sell you one separately.

#5: SANDISK SSD

Knock on wood, but Solid State Drive pricing seems like it might finally be recovering from a multi-year, worldwide NAND shortage. And SSDs, like this SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB, can do more for performance than, say, a new CPU or more RAM. And for $50, there is no reason to hesitate. This particular 2.5-inch model is currently marked down to the lowest price we’ve seen on Amazon.

#6: USB-C Exclusive

USB-C has been great in a lot of ways, but it’s going to be a long time until all of our accessories use the new connector. So if you have a laptop, tablet, or even phone whose only physical connection to the outside world is a USB-C port, you’re going to need a dongle.

Luckily, this space-saving option from Anker includes three USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, and even an ethernet port, and you can add it to your bag for just $36 today, down from the usual $55. You’ll need to clip the 10% coupon on the product page, then enter code KINJACBA at checkout. Just don’t plug in any flash drives if you don’t know where they’ve been.

#7: CHALKBOARD PAINT

The DIY possibilities are endless with this discounted Chalkboard Paint from Amazon. Fancy up your mason jars, create a mini chalk board, or inspirational quote frames, you’re only really limited by your imagination (and the 16.5 ounces of paint) here.

This $7 price is the lowest we’ve ever seen, so stock up.

#8: YANKEE CANDLES

Yankee Candle often runs deals on specific sizes and types of candles, but today, if you buy any two (full priced) jar or tumbler candles, you can pick out two more for free with promo code GET2SP19. Any size jar or tumbler, any scent; as long as they aren’t already discounted, they’re fair game. You can mix and match different sizes too, but just note that the two cheapest candles are the ones you’ll get for free.

#9: BASKETBALLS AND HOOPS SALE

I got hoop dreams, coach, I’ve got them bad! And thankfully, Amazon’s Gold Box is featuring a number of deals on basketballs and hoops, from brands like Under Armour, Wilson and Spalding.

Your shot clock on these deals expires at the end of the day, or until sold out. So, dribble and take a shot, etc.

#10: EASTER GOLD BOX

I don’t get this. I have no idea what foam, reactor pods or beakers have to do with Easter, but if your kids needs something to do on what’s the most important Christian holiday, this Gold Box has you covered.

As far as I can tell, these are just cool toys in pastel colors, so, um, okay. Sure, I guess. If you have kids and want to teach them about the miracle of foam-based toys, these discounts will only last until the end of the day or until sold out.

There’s a lot of markdowns here, so make sure to visit the main deal page to see all of your options.
