Well, have we got a find for you. This near-mint Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 is ready to make your digital life easier for under $278.99 (reg. $899), including shipping.

At just 2.7 lbs, this ultra-portable powerhouse slips into backpacks, tote bags, or carry-ons without breaking a sweat. But don’t let the slim profile fool you — inside is an 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a speedy SSD, giving you more than enough muscle for multitasking, Zoom calls, writing, streaming, and even light creative work.
