Walmart offers the Lasko Designer Series 1,500-watt Oscillating Tower Ceramic Heater in Tan, model no. 6405, for $40. (Amazon offers it for the same price for Prime members only.) Opt for in-store pickup to avoid the $4.97 shipping charge. That's $2 under last week's mention of a shipped unit and the lowest price we've seen. (It's the best now by $5, outside of the deal below.) It features two heat settings, an adjustable thermostat, electronic touch controls, 7-hour shutoff timer, and overheat protection.

A close price: Best Buy via eBay offers it for $41.99 with free shipping.
