Pick up the best premium Chromebook with Best Buy's killer deal
The refreshed Acer Chromebook Spin 713 is $80 off and comes with a free gaming controller

It continues its predecessor's winning formula of packing terrific specs and features for the money, and now, you can pick one up at Best Buy for $80 less with a couple of freebies to sweeten the deal.

It normally sells for $400, but it's available today for $363 ($37 off).The Arlo Ultra camera and hub come with some nice specs and features: 180° 4K & HDR recording, color night vision with an integrated spotlight, outdoor weather resistance, rechargeable and user-replaceable batteries, and the Arlo Smart detection and notification system. When we reviewed it in June, we said it was a good security system with a bad price, but now the price isn't as much of an issue.
