If you've already parted with big bucks on a season-appropriate ensemble, you'll want to save even bigger on some accompanying accessories. Luckily for you and your weekly budget, we've spotted an $80 drop (and all-time price low) on a Samsung Android watch, a leather wallet for just $4, and more in today's list of five Editors' Choice deals that we found overnight and early this morning.

Top Gadget Deal
 Refurbished Samsung Galaxy Gear Bluetooth Android Watch
 Store: Best Buy
 Price: $99.99 with free shipping
 Lowest by: $99
 Expires: Today

Do You Need It?: Hoverboards may not be on our radar as of yet, but contemporary wiz-kids have supplied us with a plethora of impressive gizmos. This smartwatch is a prime example, but fortunately won't break the bank. It's dropped $80 in a fortnight to an all-time price low. Plus, it's almost half the price of a new model elsewhere. It's compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and other Galaxy smartphones.

Features include a 800MHz CPU, 1.6" 320x320 AMOLED display, 4GB storage, 1.9MP camera, Bluetooth 4.0, and various Samsung apps. Note that a 90-day warranty applies, but it's unclear who backs it.

Top Accessory Deal
 Joseph Abboud Trifold Wallet
 Store: 1Sale
 Price: $3.99 with free shipping
 Lowest by: $20
 Expires: Today

Do You Need It?: If you're too busy saving those bills to splash out on a new wallet to keep them in, then this trifold number may be the cheap and cheerful accessory for you. It's half the price it was last fall and is the cheapest Joseph Abboud wallet we've ever seen. More impressively, however, is that it costs $20 more at any other store. It features four credit card slots, two bill slots, and a metal gift box.

Top App Deal
 NeoCal Advanced Calculator for Android
 Store: Amazon Appstore for Android
 Price: Free
 Lowest by: $8
 Expires: Today

Do You Need It?: Your smartphone's calculator may be good enough for totting up the grocery bill, but it can't pack as much of a problem-solving punch as this NeoCal app for Android. It's the first time we've seen it for nothing in a year and is currently $8 less than the next cheapest store. It has the ability to perform advanced scientific, financial, and statistical calculations.

Top Surprise Deal
 JLAB Grab Bag
 Store: JLabAudio
 Price: $5 via access code "rockitout" plus $2.50 s&h
 Lowest by: $5 (at the very least)

Do You Need It?: If you're looking to add a little mystery to your budget-conscious shop, then this JLAB deal should satisfy your penny-scrimping and (pretty mild) thrill-seeking needs. No matter what surprises are in store when you receive the bag, it's a bargain considering that even the cheapest JLab models sell for $10 at most stores. Each bag contains random items, including JLab earbuds, Crasher Bluetooth speakers, Bombora headphones, and VOLT chargers.

Top Sunglasses Deal
 Berkley Fishing Sunglasses
 Store: Walmart
 Price: $4.46 plus in-store pickup
 Lowest by: $14

Do You Need It?: The sun isn't quite splitting the stones just yet, but we're promised that it will sometime in the near future. To keep our spirits up, we're hence shopping for summer and vacation. These sunnies are a bargain should you wish to do the same as they're a massive $14 less at Walmart than any similar pair elsewhere. (That's more than four times cheaper!) They offer 100% UVA and UVB protection.

Total Savings: At least $146

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
