Samsung’s The Terrace is an outdoor-friendly 4K UHD QLED that’s $1500 off
Samsung The Terrace outdoor-ready QLED smart TV lifestyle image on patio.

The problem with buying just any TV for outdoors, whether you're installing on a patio, porch, or even in a sunroom, is that the glare from sunlight makes it difficult to see the screen. That happens with virtually any type of TV from LED to OLED. Some technologies are better than others, of course, but for the most part, they're not designed to be viewed in direct sunlight. That's not the case with Samsung's The Terrace outdoor TV series. They are intended to be used outdoors and engineered with not just anti-glare and wide viewing angles, suitable for bright environments, but also weather-resistant builds. Samsung's 65-inch The Terrace 4K UHD QLED partial sun variant is on sale today at Target for $3,500, which is a whopping $1,500 off the regular price -- usually $5,000. Be right back, I might go shop this one myself.

 
What makes the Samsung The Terrace outdoor TV such a good choice?
First and foremost, the Samsung 65-inch The Terrace is a 4K UHD QLED offering a vivid, vibrant picture regardless of where you place the TV. We're talking gorgeous, top-notch visuals accentuated by Samsung's well-known high-quality and bright panels. This particular TV is meant to accommodate wide viewing angles, so everyone should be able to seat it clearly no matter where they're seated, and it has anti-glare tech to prevent the sun from hampering the visuals. The TV will still be nice and bright even when it's super bright outside.

Why you should shop this 29-inch copper fire pit deal at Target
This non-permanent fire pit is a simple and easy way to set up a little fire area in your backyard. Make sure you have plenty of room around it, and don't put it too close to your house. But once it's all set up, you're golden, almost figuratively because this has a copper steel painted finish. It adds warmth and an ambiance to any outdoor seating area.

Have a Jackery power station? Grab a SolarSaga solar panel for a hefty discount
Jackery SolarSaga 40 mini solar panel with power station connected

We cover power stations a lot here at The Manual, both organically with hands-on coverage and deals coverage, because they usually have some excellent discounts floating around. Well, today, we have something a little different for you and it's a great buy if you already own a Jackery power station. Thanks to Target's Long Weekend sale, which is really a Labor Day sale in disguise, you can save big on a Jackery SolarSaga 40 Mini solar panel. Normally $130, it's only $100 today saving you $30. But with that power station it will save you even more money. How? You can plug it in and charge the station via solar power despite its compact and lightweight design. Heck yeah.

 
Why would you shop this Jackery SolarSaga 40 Mini solar panel deal at Target?
Assuming you have a Jackery power station, and I firmly believe everyone should have some kind of backup power handy, this SolarSaga 40 panel will plug right into it. Why does that matter? Well, normally, you'd power up the station and charge the battery by plugging it into an outlet. But with a panel like this, you can truly go off-grid. So if you're living in a van or in the wilderness somewhere, you can still use your favorite electronics, small appliances, and more. If you're living in a hurricane or storm alley, like I am, when the power goes out, you can keep your precious gear powered up, and a power station charged via solar.
