Greetings, Arsians! The Dealmaster is back with another round of deals to share. Today’s list is highlighted by a number of deals on Lenovo’s ThinkPad notebooks, which the PC maker has once again discounted on its online store with various coupon codes.

The best deal of the bunch looks like the 6th-gen ThinkPad X1 Carbon with an 8th-gen Core i5 chip, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD, available for just under $1,000 with the code “THINKMEMORIAL2”. (These are mostly leftover Memorial Day deals.) We’ve highlighted similar deals on this laptop in the past, and while an updated model should arrive in the near future, this is still a stronger-than-usual price for a laptop that we firmly recommend. If that’s still too expensive, the ThinkPad E490s trades in some thinness, build quality, and battery life but is similar from a specs and keyboard standpoint and costs less than $700 with the code “THINKMEMORIAL6.” The ThinkPad X1 Yoga (which we’ve praised profusely) and ThinkPad X1 Extreme (with its discrete Nvidia graphics) are on sale as well.

If you’re not into ThinkPads, we also have deals on iPads, loads of video games, Logitech’s Crayon stylus, Philips Hue lights, and more. Have a look for yourself below.
