9 PRESIDENTS' WEEK DEALS YOU'LL ACTUALLY WANT TO BUY (NO MATTRESSES OR TIRES!)

With many retailers extending Presidents' Day savings and sales through the end of the week, we thought it would be helpful to share some of the news. Rather than the usual array of tires, mattresses, and linen deals, we tracked down some sweet bargains on a range of products -- some practical, others not so much, but all certain to save you at least a Hamilton or a Jefferson.

$70 FOR SAMSUNG 19.5-INCH LED HD MONITOR (RECONDITIONED)

Why we love this deal: Monitors this size go for as low as $50 -- but not for a Samsung. Electronics retailer Woot offers a 90-day warranty in case you're worried about buying a reconditioned product. There's no such thing as enough screen real estate, and at this price you can afford to buy a spare.

$5 FOR EXERGEN TEMPORAL ARTERY THERMOMETER

Why we love this deal: Ever try to use an old-fashioned thermometer to take a child's temperature? This Costco deal requires two mail-in rebates for a total savings of $20. If that's not enough to convince you, the convenience of a digital thermometer is priceless. (Trust us.)

UP TO 43% OFF HARIO POUR-OVER COFFEE SET

Why we love this deal: Coffee connoisseurs insist that "pour over" is the only way to enjoy the full flavor of freshly ground beans. Regardless, this set from Amazon is cheaper than the French press we just broke, and it looks a lot easier to clean. Choose the brown color for the biggest discount.
