To say this week has been “harsh” feels like an understatement. We currently have 76 million people under freeze alerts, wind chills dropping to -14 in the Midwest, and yes, even the Hudson River is starting to freeze over. To make matters worse, there’s another storm tracking for the East Coast this weekend.

With temperatures staying dangerously low and power outages still affecting thousands, staying warm (and safe!) should be your top priority. If you need to prep your home (or yourself) for the next few days, Amazon has marked down a lot of the essentials. From space heaters to thermal gear, here are a few deals that can help you stay safe on a budget.

Best hand warmer deal

Why we like it

Hand warmers are an underrated accessory that are usually pretty cheap and super effective. Take the Orastone Rechargeable Hand Warmer, for example. Not only does it have more than 6K reviews on Amazon (with a 4.6-star rating), but our Tech Editor, Timothy Beck Werth, swears by them. He’s been buying these little gadgets for years and vouches for their durability and longevity (you’ll probably get two years out of one). Plus, they’re rechargeable and come with a built-in flashlight. What more could you ask for?

Best space heater deal

Why we like it

If your thermostat just isn’t cutting it, a space heater can help break the chill. The Lasko 1500W Ceramic Tower Space Heater (751320) is a pretty good buy for anyone looking for a tower model. It’s ideal for keeping your bedroom or a medium-sized living room toasty and features an adjustable thermostat (with remote) and oscillation for even heat distribution. It also has a built-in carry handle, so you can move it from room to room without much hassle.

Best heated blanket deal

Why we like it

There’s nothing cozier than a heated blanket, and right now Amazon has tons of ‘em on sale. If you’re not sure which one to pick, we recommend the Bedsure Heated Blanket. It’s 34% off right now and has more than 13K reviews (and a 4.3-star rating). This particular model is available in a variety of colors and sizes and offers six heating levels and four time settings. There’s a three-hour auto-shutoff for safety (just in case you fall asleep with it on, or accidentally leave it on the couch or elsewhere unattended). It’s undergone 74 safety checks at Bedsure’s Intertek-recognized lab, and it’s machine washable, so you don’t have to do anything special to keep it clean.
