Hotels.com Friendsgiving Getaway Opp

/

2020 has really made us cherish the little things, like hanging out with friends IRL. This holiday season, Hotels.com is giving you and your five pals something to be extra thankful for with the ultimate Friendsgiving upgrade — a week-long escape to an entirely private island!

The seven-night stay (Nov. 14 – 21) includes a 3-bed, 2-bath, 5,000-square-foot vacation home with a veranda, kayaks, paddleboards, a boat dock and helicopter launch pad. Reserving just one night on this private island would typically run you $1,400, but Hotels.com is offering a mega-discounted rate of $2,000 (+tax) for the entire stay.

 Oh, and did we mention we're taking care of Thanksgiving dinner? The reservation comes with a one-night private chef who will cook the ultimate Friendsgiving meal, so you can eat, drink and be thankful without having to worry about who will cook the turkey!

 Start the group chat, grab your credit card, and mark your calendars for Tuesday, Oct. 27 at 10 a.m. ET because this experience is available on a first-come, first-served basis HERE.

From Best Products

School might be looking a little different this year come September, but Starbucks isn’t letting that change its new back-to-school-inspired cups. Even if your days of homework and asking to use the bathroom are long behind you, the cups are fun for anyone to sip their coffee from.

Thanks to various Instagram accounts, we can see that there are new hot cups and cold cups. The star seems to be the venti black tumbler with little designs, including lightning bolts, lips with “coffee,” stars, an apple with “lunch break,” ice cubes, “chill,” or more quirky details. It also comes in a clear option.
