Shoppers arrive at a Target store in Los Angeles, Dec. 19, 2013. Target shoppers can get a free pizza at Target Café this weekend if they complete a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles personality test.

With the weekend ahead, we're looking for ways to appease our spend-thrifty nature, so we've rounded up the best self-indulgent treats that won't set us back too many precious pennies. You can pick up a free pizza at the Target Café, while scoring some hefty price lows on popular MP3 albums at Amazon or Google Play. These deals and more are in today's list of five Editors' Choice deals that we found overnight and early this morning.

Top Freebie
Pizza Hut Combo Meal
Store: Target Cafe
Price: Free when you complete this short TMNT "personality" test
Expires: After 7,500 redemptions

Do You Need It?: There are few things we celebrate quite as much as a freebie, especially when it's one that promises to be as tasty as this. Simply fill in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles "test" and enter your cell phone number at the end to receive a coupon. It's the first such freebie we've ever seen from the Target Café.

Top Laptop Deal
Acer Aspire Intel Celeron 2.16GHz 16" Laptop

Do You Need It?: If you're looking for a cheap and cheerful laptop for basic home needs, then you won't come across a much better deal than this. This build is at an all-time price low for any 15.6" Acer laptop and it's currently a massive $85 cheaper at Fry's than at any other store. It features an Intel Celeron N2830 2.16GHz dual-core CPU, 15.6" 1366x768 LED-backlit LCD, 2GB RAM, 320GB hard drive, webcam, Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11n wireless, USB 3.0, 3-cell battery, and Windows 8.1.

Prefer to go for a Toshiba model? Fry's also has the Toshiba C55-B5299 Intel Celeron 2.16GHz 15.6" Laptop for just $2 more than this build. It features the same specs, but boasts a 500GB hard drive. It's a current low by $48.

Top Kitchen Deal

This Gibson set is nearly three times cheaper than that of any other stores' best offer. It features three saucepans, two frying pans, tempered glass lids, and a variety of plastic kitchen tools.

A comparable set for college kids is also available in the Gibson Home Dorm Kitchen 38-Piece Combo Set, which costs $5 more. It includes glass tumblers, plates, flatware, cutlery, travel mugs, measuring cups and spoons, and the all-important pizza cutter and can opener.

Top Music Deal

Do You Need It?: No matter your musical tastes, Amazon has discounted a range of MP3 albums to a measly $1.99. It puts many contemporary titles at a fraction of the cost of iTunes current price and at all-time price lows. Two morning soundtracks to consider from the sale: deadmau5's Random Album Title (pictured; an $8 low) orKanye West's Yeezus (a $10 low).

What is the Monitor difference? Tackling the tough headlines – with humanity. Listening to sources – with respect. Seeing the story that others are missing by reporting what so often gets overlooked: the values that connect us. That’s Monitor reporting – news that changes how you see the world.

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.
