Get a protection plan on all your appliances

Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.

Whether or not you’re a new homeowner, a home warranty from Choice Home Warranty could pick up the slack where insurance falls short and protect you against surprise expenses. If a covered system in your home breaks, you can call their hotline 24/7 to get it repaired.

For a limited time, you can get your first month free with a Single Payment home warranty plan.

Price: $13.98

Nothing beats an insulated stainless steel bottle for keeping drinks cold for hours. Especially if your New Year's resolution is better hydration, this easy-sip straw lid TAL bottle is a great buy, durable and lightweight enough for errands.

Reviewer Samantha echoes the majority of shoppers when she describes this 26-ounce bottle as "the perfect weight and size."

Folgers Ground Coffee

Starting a cold January morning with a smooth cup of coffee is a must. For under $15, this 25.9-ounce medium-roast coffee is ideal for daily brewing throughout winter.

It's also almost a dollar less than the same size at Target, so don't leave it behind.

Mainstays Bath Accessory Set

To renew your bathroom in January, you don't need to start from scratch. Buy this compact set — soap pump, toothbrush holder, and tray with natural bamboo accents — to organize your countertop.

These four packs of baked, gluten-free chips are a crunchy protein snack with a sweet and spicy chili flavor. They're convenient and portion-controlled.

Price: $12.97

While January's days are short, investing in blackout curtains this early in the year sets you on course for good sleep during the summer. This curtain set also improves insulation, supports temperature control, and the black color fits all decor styles.

Walmart's affordable pricing makes this purchase a no-brainer.

Great Value Apple Cider Vinegar

Price: $2.48

Apple cider vinegar is great for cooking and pickling, but in January, it's also nice to have on hand for home remedies. Less than $5 buys 32 ounces, so you'll have enough to last the cold and flu season.

Buyers love its versatility. "I use it to clean and sanitize," writes reviewer Bash.

Mainstays Muffin Pans

Price: $10.72

Muffin pans get a good use during winter because they're ideal for baking not just muffins, but also batches of egg cups for a no-fuss breakfast. This four-pack features a nonstick coating for easy release and cleanup.

A single six-pack costs $9 at Target, so don't miss this affordable deal.

Great Value Corn

Price: $6.59

January is all about warming soups and casseroles, and 12 packs of shelf-stable canned corn can stock your pantry for the rest of the winter.

Buying single cans at grocery stores can add up quickly: 12 packs would set you back $17.88 at Safeway.

Knorr Pasta Sides

Price: $10.56

With eight 4.4-ounce packs of creamy butter and herb pasta sides, you can enjoy quick-cook dinners throughout January. They have a long shelf life, so you can grab multiples if your budget allows.

Shoppers enjoy them as is or with a few simple additions. "I sometimes add a can of mixed vegetables to mine," explains reviewer Jimmy.

Price: $1.44

Mashed potatoes take a lot of cooking, but they're a delicious side to hearty January meals. Instead of cooking them from scratch, you can grab 10 packs of this creamy, cheesy comfort side without blowing your $15 budget.

Shoppers are spoiled for choice with 10 flavors to choose from, and give these taters an average of 4.7 out of 5 available stars.

eos Body Lotion

In January, you're still in the dead of winter, looking at weeks upon weeks of dry skin. Not so if you buy this rich, fast-absorbing lotion that offers long-lasting moisture and a warm pistachio scent.

With 16 ounces in a bottle, you'll get through the winter unscathed and keep two extra dollars in your pocket compared to buying it at CVS.

Hunt's Tomato Paste

If you enjoy pasta and stews as comfort meals in January, you're in good company. With this classic tomato paste, which adds rich flavor to your meals, you're also in good hands.

Just $15 worth of this staple ingredient stocked in your pantry means you'll be fine throughout the colder months.

Better Homes & Gardens Storage Basket

Price: $10.87

Organizing messy living spaces becomes an obsession after the crazy holiday season. Organization doesn't equal boring storage, though, and this decorative basket is great for sorting blankets, books, or magazines.

Besides, a similar hyacinth basket with handles costs more than double at Target.

Mainstays Candle

Price: $5.97

Cozy candles aren't just for the holiday season. This three-wick, 14-ounce candle burns evenly and offers a warm, inviting scent. It adds ambiance and warm light without the $23.99 price tag a similar-sized Bath & Body Works candle commands at Walmart.
