Digital Cameras. Point-and-shoot cameras are just the right size to stick in a purse or pocket and take to a holiday bash. They also make exciting gifts. Our updated buying guide recommends several digital cameras under $100 that offer impressive value for the price. Our favorite is the Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3, the only budget model on our list with optical image stabilization, a feature that experts say helps deliver consistently excellent photos, no matter what the conditions.
Red Wine. Price often affects what people think about a wine -- studies show consumers seem to enjoy a wine more when they know it cost more. But don't let prices fool you. We found quite a few cheap red wines that you'd be proud to serve to guests or savor on your own. Cheers!
Champagnes. Just in time for the New Year celebrations, we've updated our buying guide to cheap champagne. The sparkling wines on our list all sell for $20 or less and pass the taste and texture test: fruity without being too sweet, lots of fizzy bubbles. Not the real thing -- that would be Champagne with a capital C, and produced exclusively in France -- but close enough for cost-conscious revelers.
Mattress Deals. A mattress is a big purchase, so it's worth investing some effort to find the best deal available. We added a full page on mattress deals to help you save money. Count dollar signs instead of sheep.

Best Retail Stores Apps. Retail store apps keep smartphone users on top of the best daily deals, let them search for prices and check availability, view weekly ads, and more. Read our retail stores apps review for the inside scoop.
