Laptops! They’re always one of the most sought after gifts each year, and unless you’re one of the first few to nab a DoorBuster deal in stores, you’re always going to pay slightly more than those lucky few. But have no fear, here are the best buys at the biggest stores I’m seeing right now, and there is still time to nab a great computer at a great price.
Giveaway time! First come first serve! Paste this code 3EFF-R3ENSM-7RDT in your Amazon account HERE to see if you are the first person snagging this gift card! Good luck!
For those not sure about what all the acronyms and numbers mean in the descriptions:
- The first is usually the Processor (ex: Intel Core i3). The higher the number, the better the processor (think speed on your computer).
- The second is usually the Memory (ex: 4 GB). The higher the number, the more short term memory your computer has (think number of windows you can have open at one time).
- The third is usually the Hard Drive (ex: 500 GB). The higher the number, the more hard drive space your computer has (think amount of space on your computer for movies, photos, programs you download from the internet, etc).
That will hopefully help you make sense of the numbers below to make the most educated decision on a laptop!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
