Peak-Design-Camera-Clip-Gear-Patrol-lead-full

Peak Design Capture Clip
Save 20%: Peak Design, the San Francisco-based photography gear company, built itself on a tiny accessory called Capture. In basic terms, Capture is a clip.

Peak Design has since evolved to make camera straps and bags, but Capture is still one of the brand’s core products (and Peak Design continually improves it with redesigns); right now it’s also on sale for 20 percent off. The discount applies at checkout. — Tanner Bowden

LG-OLED55B8PUA-Gear-Patrol-lead-full

LG B8 OLED TV (55-inch)
Save $412: The LG B8 is the company’s entry-level OLED TV, but its picture quality is just as good as the company’s higher-end model, like the LG C8. If you’re looking to get an OLED TV, this is one of the best deals we’ve seen. The deal is on a 55-inch model, which is rare because it’s a really popular-sized TV. (Most homes don’t need or can’t fit, a TV that’s larger than 55-inches.) And it’s going for just over $1,000, which is a lot less expensive than what LG is currently selling its 55-inch LG B8 OLED TVs.
