Apple Products

Apple laptops are lightweight and powerful, meaning they're great to take on the road. Amazon is currently offering the 13-inch MacBook Air for $699 -- $300 less than normal. B&H also has a large sale on Apple products, including $35 off AirPods, bringing the cost down to just $165.

Target will dole out $200 gift cards when purchasing and activating an iPhone at the retailer (sale runs from Nov. 23 to Nov. 25). Walmart leads the pack on Apple deals, offering AirPods for $129, the Apple Watch 3 at a best-ever $129 and $80 off the all-new iPad.

The ladies (and possibly the gents?) of TPG have begun pulling a Chrissy Teigen lately, applying our face masks on long-haul flights with the abandon of a seasoned celebrity traveler. After all, it's important to stay hydrated at 35,000 feet, and that goes for skin too.

Some of our favorite brands are offering Black Friday deals for a variety of skincare products, including sheet masks and other no-rinse products you can apply and discard right in the comfort of even an economy seat. As follows:

Birchbox: Our new favorite beauty brand, thanks to the specially curated TPG Globetrotting Groomer pack, Birchbox is taking 15% off orders $30+, 20% off orders $50+, and 25% off orders $75+. No promo code needed to take advantage of this deal, which applies to everything from Birchbox and Birchbox Grooming. The sale runs from Nov. 27 to Dec. 3.

Milk Makeup: Get the Milk Makeup Cyber Set for $40, which features Blur Liquid Matte Foundation, a sample of its Hydro Grip Deluxe, Glow Oil in Solar, a Kush barrette and, best of all, the Kush Mascara Deluxe.

Charlotte Tilbury: valid through Dec. 2, Charlotte Tilbury is offering a 30% discount on tons of different makeup and skincare products.

eBags

The travel accessories site eBags is currently offering up to 70% off during its Cyber Monday event. Luggage sets from brands including CalPak, American Tourister, Samsonite and eBags' own brand are up to 55% off. You can find great packing cube sets for 45% off. One of TPG staffer Madison Blancaflor's favorite travel backpacks, the eBags Professional Slip Laptop Backpack, is only $69.99 (which is 50% off). Even top apparel brands such as Patagonia and Marmot are up to 30% off.

Make sure you go through a shopping portal when shopping this sale because eBags will earn additional rewards through many of the large U.S. airline shopping portals and even through some targeted Chase Offers. I'm seeing 15x United miles, 14x AAdvantage miles, 8x Delta miles and more if you're looking to earn airline miles. CashbackMonitor.com also shows targeted offers for as much as 10x Ultimate Rewards points. However, I was not targeted for any eBags Chase offers.
