Bose 700 Noise Cancelling Headphones: was $379 now $279 at Amazon
The Bose 700 are five years old but are still the best active noise-cancelling headphones you can buy for nixing all that annoying background sound. Is this the best-ever price? No: but it’s damn close as they only hit $269 once in December 2022. But, honestly, the Bose 700 are becoming harder to get hold of, and deals are as rare as pirate sea glass, so this is one to snap up now if you want some premium headphones at a great price.
