It's gloomy as heck right now in New England, there's a blizzard on its way for a large portion of the States, and all this unpleasant weather has me wishing I could crawl back into bed and sleep until spring gets here. But that's sadly not realistic. So instead I window shop to shake off the weekend cobwebs and get myself back into work mode, and hopefully the deals I came across will give you something to get excited about too. There's not a ton of exciting offers on Amazon today, but I managed to find five I thought might interest you.
1. Replace your gross comforter with a fluffy new one
Comforters are a pain in the you-know-what to keep clean. We always promise ourselves we'll wash them ever month or so like we should. But we never do. And they start to collect all the dead skin cells and sweat and dust particles and mites (yes, mites) that tend to live in a bed. Even if you wash your comforter regularly, you can only get it so clean after a while. So why not start fresh with a new one? This highly rated duvet insert is perfect, especially at its sale price of just $28—it usually sells for $33-$39. With more than 5,400 positive reviews and 4.5 out of 5 stars, the Utopia Bedding queen-sized comforter is perfect for anyone who enjoys a luxurious night's sleep.

2. Stop worrying about your phone battery with a powerful charger on hand
If you've got an older model iPhone and you've been wondering if you should get that battery replacement or just upgrade, I've got a third option for you. Get a backup charger from RAVPower that can keep your phone going stronger a bit longer. The 22000mAh power bank, usually $40, is marked down to $32.99 and there's a 5% off coupon, putting the cost right around $31. You can charge three devices at once, and it holds enough power to fully charge your phone nearly five times. It comes with two micro USB charger and a carrying pouch to keep everything organized in your purse or backpack.

3. Organize your home office with convenient charging cables
Anker's braided Powerline+ charging cables are a personal favorite. I recommend them to everyone for their high quality. Not only do they charge devices as fast as the native cables, but the braided cords prevent tangles and protect them from damage, and they cone in all sorts of lengths. Right now, you can pick up a two-pack of 3-foot USB-C to USB-A cables for just $9.49, roughly half the usual price. This cord length is perfect for a desktop charging station or for keeping in your bag along with your portable power bank. You can get a 3-foot lightning cable for $8.39 (30% off) with the code "ANKER888" too (in red only).
4. Stock up on Sharpies... Why not?
Having a Sharpie on hand can be so useful. Addressing packages, writing notes on frozen leftovers, doodling while you're stuck on that boring conference call, getting signatures from chance meetings with celebrities. You never know when you'll need something heartier than a regular old pen, and right now you can pick up a 24-pack for just $7.31. This pack usually costs $12-$14, making this Deal of the Day extra lucrative for anyone with a penchant for writing and drawing in color.

5. The best home WiFi system to erase dead zones
We've tested all the leading WiFi systems and the eero system has consistently outperformed the competition—and right now the first generation model is $50 lower than normal. If you've got areas in your home where your WiFi signal is nonexistent or painfully unreliable, upgrading to eero will solve that problem. Rather than adding range extenders to your existing router to weakly boost the signal, you hook up multiple routers in your home that all talk to each other and boost the same, consistently strong signal to eradicate internet dead zones and give you all the bandwidth you're paying for.
Get the eero Home WiFi System with 3 routers for $344 and save $55
