By Jennifer Allen Updated October 2, 2020

Keen to learn a new skill while you’re stuck indoors? In need of a career change and considering more exciting alternatives than before? Buy an annual MasterClass membership right now and you get one free. Share it with a friend and you’ll both only have to pay $90 each for a year’s access to some fantastic classes like cooking with Gordon Ramsay or acting with Samuel L Jackson.

MasterClass offers tons of different classes with the likes of Jimmy Chin teaching you how to capture great adventure photos, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz helping you hone your business leadership skills, and Timbaland teaching you producing and beat making. Whatever your passion, you’re sure to find something fascinating here. Alternatively, if you want to change career fields, this is a great starting point for discovering new things.

There’s no shortage of options either. MasterClass recently added a great gardening class via self-proclaimed Gangster Gardener, Ron Finley. It’s a great way to learn how to revolutionize your outdoor space.

Ordinarily, one all-access pass costs $180 for an annual membership to MasterClass. Right now though, you can grab two all-access passes for $180 meaning it’s the ideal chance for you to split the opportunity with a friend or loved one. Each course is under 20 lessons long with every lesson working out to about 12 minutes each. It’s ideal stuff for bite-sized learning, ensuring you learn fast and you enjoy the process, too.

If you’re keen to do something a little different from simply binge-watching Netflix or Disney+ all day, MasterClass is the perfect chance to better yourself or learn something you’ve always wanted to understand.

You can even master mixology if you want to!

What could be better than mastering cocktails at home before meeting up with a friend (in the future) and sharing the talent? For now, it’s a fun thing to do and the ideal conversation starter for those regular video-call dates we’ve all been living for lately.

Get in quickly though. The MasterClass BOGO offer is a limited deal so it won’t be around forever. Now is the perfect chance to jump on it and enjoy a never-ending supply of hugely informative and fun professional classes.

Dyson V7 Advanced Origin -- $300, was $400

The Dyson V7 Advanced Origin is one of the brand's more affordable cordless vacuums, but it still has what it takes to keep your whole home clean with its powerful suction and whole-machine filtration that captures pet allergens and fine dust while expelling clean air. The cordless vacuum also features a detangling Motorbar cleaner head, which deep cleans carpets and hard floors while clearing pet hair from the brush bar using hair removal vanes. It quickly switches to a handheld vacuum with one click, and it can run for up to 40 minutes on a single charge.

If you've been waiting for a discount on the GoPro Hero 11 Black, check this out -- the action camera is down to $400 from Best Buy, for savings of $100 on its original price of $500. GoPro is still the most trusted name in the action camera space, so we expect this offer to attract a lot of attention and possibly sell out quickly. If you want to get the device for cheaper than usual, you're going to have to proceed with the purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the GoPro Hero 11 Black
The GoPro Hero 11 Black looks very similar to the GoPro Hero 10 Black, which is a pro-consumer move because that means you can keep using accessories from the older model when you upgrade. All of the improvements are under the hood though, including a larger sensor that will let you shoot horizontal and vertical footage at the same time without having to choose between the two formats. The GoPro Hero 11 Black can shoot 5.3K video at up to 60 frames per second, 4K at up to 120 frames per second, and 2.7K at up to 240 frames per second for super slow-motion.
