From $329

Apple Watch Series 6 models are available for some of their best prices ever right now. The lowest price is on the red 40mm version which is $70 off with 44mm and cellular models seeing discounts of up to $91.

These refurbished options from Woot aren't for everyone, but the prices are some of the best we've seen. If your teen is asking for a phone, but you don't want to drop a ton of money, or you'd like to have a secondary device around, you'll want to peruse this sale. These phones are listed as scratch-and-dent, so there'll be physical signs of use like scratches, dings, or dents. However, the device itself will work perfectly. Your purchase includes a 90-day warranty in case anything goes awry, and you can put some of your savings toward a third-party warranty for added peace of mind.

The iPhone 6s is the newest option in the sale and it starts at $89.99. While the iPhone 6s isn't the latest and greatest, it's still a good phone. There's a 4.7-inch Retina display, an A9 chip, Touch ID, and 3D touch as well as a 12MP camera. This model has a headphone jack, too, which is another reason why it'd be great for a teen. With up to 128GB of storage, there's plenty of room for music, photos, and more. The iPhone 6s series is also compatible with iOS 13 that rolled out last fall as well.

The deals are good for today only or while supplies last, so be sure to act fast to avoid missing out on the phone you want. Some specific models have already sold out, so don't let that happen to the handset you want.
