Lenovo Ideapad 110S is a simple, chic budget laptop

Today’s deal is a rerun, and the price is actually a little higher than last time. Wait, what? That totally violates rerun rules!

Hear me out: The price is just $20 higher than last time, but still $70 lower than the regular price. And I continue to consider the product the best in its class.

The class in question: budget laptops. And as of this moment, I can think of no better option than this one: For a limited time, and while supplies last, Best Buy has the (plus tax). Normally it sells for $199.99.

Does the name sound familiar? You might be thinking of the Ideapad 100S, which I dubbed the . What’s different about the 110S? Aside from being cheaper, at least during this sale, it actually solves two of my big problems with its predecessor.

First, the 110S has a USB 3.0 port (along with a pair of 2.0 ports). The 100S was USB 2.0-only — something you could live with, but a bummer all the same.

Second, the touchpad on the 110S supports gestures, most notably two-finger scrolling. With the 100S, you pretty much had to use a mouse to preserve your scrolling sanity.

Beyond that, the specs are pretty much the same: slow processor, limited RAM and storage (2GB and 32GB, though the latter is easy enough to expand via flash drive or microSD) and mediocre battery life (courtesy of a mere two-cell battery).

However, you do get an HDMI output and, better still, a one-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Personal — which has a value of $70 all by itself.

Want to learn more? Read . Conclusion: “A simple but capable budget laptop for those with basic needs and who don’t want to make the Chromebook leap.” That review, of course, was based on the $199.99 price tag.

But “basic needs” is the key phrase: This laptop is suitable for everyday web stuff and Office-powered productivity. It’s almost cheap enough to keep on hand as a spare PC in case your primary machine suffers a meltdown.

Your thoughts?

Bonus deal: I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords — provided they’re willing to sweep and mop. For a limited time, Cheapskate readers can get the with promo code CNET90. Price elsewhere: $450!

Yep, it’s a lot like a Roomba — except the link vao m88 can be controlled by app! Choose the cleaning mode, check battery status, turn Max Suction mode (whatever that is) on/off and so on.

The most important feature, IMHO, is the charging base, which the little droid will return to and dock with automatically when power is running low. I haven’t found any deep-dive reviews to speak of, but most users reviews are very favorable.

Bonus deal 2: If I didn’t wreck your drone budget with yesterday’s deal, check this out: Today only, and while supplies last, BuyDig has the — plus a $25 BuyDig gift card! — when you apply promo code CHEAPSKATE at checkout. Another exclusive from yours truly!

You can also get the and for the same price with the same code. List price on all of them: $180.

These aren’t the Air Hogs Star Wars drones you’ve probably seen. Propel’s models are much more advanced, with sounds effects emanating from the controller and the option to engage in aerial laser fights with other models.

So if you’ll forgive a little mixing of sci-fi metaphors, here: Resistance is futile.

Patient safety assistant

Check your symptom safely

Hi, I am RX Symptom Navigator. I can help you understand what to read next and what warning signs need care.

Warning: Do not use this in emergencies, pregnancy, severe illness, or as a substitute for a doctor. For children or teens, use with a parent/guardian and clinician.

A rural-friendly guide: warning signs, when to see a doctor, related articles, tests to discuss, and OTC safety education.

1 Symptom 2 Severity 3 Safe guidance

First safety question

Is there chest pain, breathing trouble, fainting, confusion, severe bleeding, stroke-like weakness, severe injury, or pregnancy danger sign?

Choose quickly

All symptoms

Browse by body area

Start here: Write or select a symptom. The guide will show warning signs, doctor guidance, diagnostic tests to discuss, OTC safety education, and related RX articles.

Important: This tool is educational only. It cannot diagnose, treat, or replace a doctor. OTC information is not a prescription. In an emergency, contact local emergency services or go to the nearest hospital.

Safety note: This is not a prescription or diagnosis. For severe symptoms, pregnancy danger signs, children with serious illness, chest pain, breathing difficulty, stroke-like weakness, or major injury, seek urgent care.

Which doctor may help?

Start with a registered doctor or the nearest qualified health center.

What to tell the doctor

Write when the problem started and how it changed.
Bring old prescriptions, investigation reports, and current medicines.
Write allergies, pregnancy status, diabetes, kidney/liver disease, and major past illnesses.
Bring one family member if the patient is weak, elderly, confused, or a child.

Questions to ask

What is the most likely cause of my symptoms?
Which danger signs mean I should go to hospital quickly?
Which tests are necessary now, and which can wait?
How should I take medicines safely and what side effects should I watch for?
When should I come for follow-up?

Tests to discuss

Vital signs: temperature, pulse, blood pressure, oxygen saturation
Basic physical examination by a clinician
CBC, urine test, blood sugar, or imaging only when clinically needed

Avoid these mistakes

Do not use antibiotics, steroid tablets/injections, or strong painkillers without proper medical advice.
Do not hide pregnancy, kidney disease, ulcer, allergy, or blood thinner use.
Do not delay emergency care when danger signs are present.

Medicine safety and first-aid guide

This section is for patient education only. It does not replace a doctor, pharmacist, or emergency care.

Safe first steps

Rest, drink safe water, and observe symptoms carefully.
Keep a written note of symptoms, duration, temperature, medicines already taken, and allergy history.
Seek medical care quickly if symptoms are severe, worsening, or unusual for the patient.

OTC medicine safety

For mild pain or fever, ask a registered pharmacist or doctor before using common over-the-counter pain/fever medicines.
Do not combine multiple pain medicines without advice, especially if you have kidney disease, liver disease, stomach ulcer, asthma, pregnancy, or take blood thinners.
Do not give adult medicines to children unless a qualified clinician advises it.

Avoid these mistakes

Do not start antibiotics without a proper medical decision.
Do not use steroid tablets or injections casually for quick relief.
Do not delay emergency care because of home remedies.

Get urgent help if

Severe symptoms, confusion, fainting, breathing difficulty, chest pain, severe dehydration, or sudden weakness need urgent medical care.

Medicine names, dose, and timing must be decided by a qualified clinician or pharmacist after checking age, pregnancy, allergy, other diseases, and current medicines.

For rural patients and family caregivers

Patient health record and symptom diary

Write your symptoms, medicines already taken, test results, and questions before visiting a doctor. This note stays on your device unless you print or copy it.

Doctor to discuss: Doctor / qualified healthcare provider

Tests to discuss with doctor

Basic vital signs: temperature, pulse, blood pressure, oxygen level if needed
Relevant blood, urine, imaging, or specialist tests only after clinical assessment

Questions to ask

What is the most likely cause of my symptoms?
Which warning signs mean I should go to emergency care?
Which tests are really needed now?
Which medicines are safe for my age, pregnancy status, allergy, kidney/liver/stomach condition, and current medicines?

Emergency warning signs such as chest pain, severe breathing difficulty, sudden weakness, confusion, severe dehydration, major injury, or loss of bladder/bowel control need urgent medical care. Do not wait for online information.

Go to emergency care if you notice:

Severe or rapidly worsening symptoms
Breathing difficulty, chest pain, fainting, confusion, severe weakness, major injury, or severe dehydration

Doctor / service to discuss: Qualified healthcare provider; specialist depends on symptoms and examination.

Step 1
Check danger signs first
If danger signs are present, seek emergency care and do not wait for online information.
Step 2
Record the symptom story
Write when symptoms started, severity, medicines already taken, allergies, pregnancy status, and test results.
Step 3
Visit a qualified clinician
A doctor, nurse, or qualified healthcare provider can examine you and decide which tests or treatment are needed.
Step 4
Do only useful tests
Do tests after clinical assessment. Avoid unnecessary tests, random antibiotics, or repeated medicines without diagnosis.
Step 5
Follow up and return early if worse
If symptoms worsen, new warning signs appear, or treatment is not helping, return for review quickly.

Rural patient practical tips

Take a written symptom diary and all previous prescriptions/test reports.
Do not hide medicines already taken, even herbal or over-the-counter medicines.
Ask which warning signs mean urgent referral to hospital.

This roadmap is for education. A real diagnosis and treatment plan requires history, examination, and clinical judgment.
