When the best deals of the entire year happen to coincide with the holidays, there’s no reason not to treat yourself in the same shopping spree as your favorite loved ones and relatives. Your home is where your heart is and that nest should be as much a reflection of you as humanly—and financially—possible.

While a significant number of milennials would prefer to spend their money on experiences, or paring down debt, over furniture and kitchen accoutrements, I work from home and functionally only get out of my house to run errands, so my home is among my utmost priorities in terms of building an equal parts productive and restful sanctuary.

Whether you prioritize your home—beyond making sure rent is paid on time—or not, these holiday deals cannot be passed up. Go ahead, browse. I’m certain you’ll find something that makes coming home as good as a 5-star hotel.
