These are the Black Friday 2023 deals that every healthy couple should consider investing in. We’re minimalists at heart, but we can’t pass up on these shopping deals, especially when it comes to our health.
Wonder what’s on our minimalist holiday shopping list?
After living out of a suitcase for four years and now settled into a small apartment, we like to keep things simple and multi-purpose.
These are the products that impact our lives for the better. We use them weekly, if not daily, and they make us happy each time.
For like-minded, healthy couples, we think you’ll find this list resonates. So, we combed the internet to provide you with our top deals to seek out this Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
BLACK FRIDAY 2023 DEALS
Also, before you shop, don’t forget our online shopping mantra: never shop without a plugin.
Before you shop, use the Rakuten plugin. It’s free, you get additional cash back, and it scans the web for the best deals on the exact item you want.
Just this week, I was about to check out a puff jacket before it saved me, and found it $10 cheaper on another site. We know, we know… online data and privacy!
But if you’re shopping online, they already know what you’re buying so you might as well capitalize on it. Plus with our referral link, you get $30 off. Good luck out there!
Early Black friday 2023 deals
These are the best early Black Friday deals from brands that we know and trust. This shortlist of products has been game-changing for our health and happiness.
If there is an awesome product on your Black Friday shopping list that didn’t make ours, please let us know in the comments! Seriously, we’d love to hear.
Lumen $199 (Save 33%)
Lumen is the only pocket-sized, real-time metabolism tracker available on the market. Want to know what your body is burning in exact percentages, like 65% carbs and 35% fat, right this second?
Wouldn’t it be helpful to know how your body responded to last night’s dinner? Or if you’ve fasted long enough to reach fat-burn mode?
Now you can, and we share our experience using Lumen for 3 months in our review here.
In what is one of the biggest Black Friday sales we’ve found, take $100 off the Lumen device using our link together with code RYANANDALEX.
Want to know if you need the 12-month subscription or just the device? Head over to our review where we weigh the pros and cons from personal experience.
The Adventure Challenge (Save up to 50%)
There’s a lot of date night boxes and other products that are fluffy, lame, or just a waste of money. The Adventure Challenge book isn’t one of them.
We’re obvious fans of journals — we published one ourselves! — and think it’s a great way to capture and remember fun times together.
What we love about the Adventure Challenge is that it takes the next year of date nights to the next level, with 50 scratch off mystery ideas that are affordable, creative, and fun.
We’ve finished around 35 of the 50 dates so far, which we write about in our Adventure Challenge book review, and our favorites include replicating a date our grandparents went on to painting each other’s bodies. We’re fans, and highly recommend investing in 50 easy date night ideas for 2024!
November 16-20: 30% off couple’s bundles with BUNDLEME30

BloomsyBox: 15-25% off through Cyber Monday
BloomsyBox is our favorite flower subscription that delivers gorgeous, expertly curated flowers to your home weekly, monthly, or just for that special occasion.
Not only are the bouquets exquisitely put together — like their New York Botanical Garden-inspired subscription which donates a portion of their sales back to plant science and conservation — but they’re ethically harvested and arrived so fresh that our last bouquet lasted over two weeks.
Send your loved ones (or yourself!) the gift of fresh flowers with BloomsyBox unique subscriptions. The subscription is our favorite gift to give the person who already has everything… because fresh flowers always brighten the day.

Couples Yoga Program: 33% Off
For Black Friday 2023, we’re offering our 6-Week Couple’s Yoga Program at a discount!
Knowing how crazy the holidays can get and how hard it can be to work out, our program is 33% off through Cyber Monday.
The program includes five unique and creatively challenging classes, made for couples by couples. All levels are welcome!
For more information on the program, head over to our Couples Yoga Program page.
Masterclass: 2 Memberships for the Price of 1
We can’t say enough great things about Masterclass, and we’ve taken over 30 classes now.
My favorites have been James Suckling’s ‘Wine Appreciation’ and Jimmy Chin’s ‘Adventure Photography.’ Ryan votes for Jane Goodall’s ‘Conservation’ and Alice Water’s ‘Cooking.’
Before signing up, browse our list of the top 10 best MasterClass courses.
It’s fresh and fun. Why not replace 20 minutes of TV a day with something as useful as learning how to sing, cook, survive in the wilderness, and even garden?
Quotebook Journal: $34 (15% Off)
As engineers, we love to document everything. And journals are one of our favorite ways to document our memories together.
Now that we are parents, we’re ready to start documenting our families quoteable quotes (once our baby starts talking).
The Quotebook is beautiful, perfect for the living room coffee table, and it’s built to last a lifetime. As they say, it’s “Part journal, part time capsule, part keepsake.”
Amazon Black friday 2023 deals
These are excellent Black Friday deals we’ve found on Amazon. This is a short list of products that we use every day to improve our health and happiness.
Winix Air Purifier: $145 (27% Off)
We’ve done a ton of research on air purifiers so you don’t have to. This is the one that we have in our baby’s room. It’s excellent.
In the fall of 2020, we renovated our apartment and rented an older unit on a busy street surrounded by flowering trees.
Between pollution, musty air, and pollen, the congestion was horrible. It was affecting Ryan’s sleep, so of course he spent hours researching air purifiers.
We bought the Winix on Black Friday, plugged it in, and the problem was solved instantly. We bought a second purifier last Black Friday. Now it’s your turn!
Instant Pot Duo (6-Qt): $70 on Amazon (46% off)
Not only is it a pressure cooker, but it also is a rice cooker, slow cooker, steamer, yogurt maker, and sterilizer. I wish I had one of these in my college dorm room!
We know, we know, everyone loves to talk about their Instant Pot. But we’re one of them. Don’t have one yet? Get ready to upgrade your life.
There are two great deals on Amazon for fitness wearables:
FitBit Versa 4: $150 (25% Off)
The Fitbit covers all of our geeky engineer needs. Not only can you use your Fitbit for fitness tracking (like calories and heart rate), it also tracks your sleep quality and stress levels.
This is the best Black Friday 2023 deal we’ve seen on fitness wearables at 25% off.
Apple Watch Series 8: $299 (25% Off)
For tracking fitness, total calories burned daily, heart rate, and running or hiking workouts, there is nothing better.
The GPS is incredible. We’re really excited for the new blood oxygen and ECG apps.
Here are some more favorite picks for Black Friday 2023:
Apple AirPods Pro: $190 (24% Off)
AirPods are one of those things that you don’t think you need, but when you have them, you can’t remember what life was like before them.
Going cordless is so freeing and makes it much easier to walk the dogs, do the dishes, water the garden, and jog on a windy day.
Also, with these 2nd generation pods, the noise cancelling is even more incredible. If you don’t already have a pair, this Black Friday 2023 deal is for you.
iRobot Roomba 694: $159 (42% Off)
A few years ago, we decided that not wanting to vacuum wasn’t lazy — it was efficient.
With the low prices and big Black Friday deals happening around robot vacuums, it’s a no-brainer for us to outsource this chore. Now, we use that extra time cooking and working out.
This is the best deal you’ll find on Roombas all year.
Kindle Paperwhite: $120 (14% Off)
After reading tons of books on both my iPad and an old Kindle, I vote for the Kindle.
We like to read before bed but hate staring at a screen. With science showing that the light from your screens is harmful to sleep quality, a Kindle is a great option.
Happy Shopping
We hope you are as excited as we are about these Black Friday 2023 deals for healthy couples! If there are any sweet deals we missed, please let us know.
