If you're looking for a way to reduce your calorie and fat intake without giving up your favorite fried foods, an air fryer is probably one of the best short-term investments you can make. And right now, you don't have to invest all that much since Best Buy has a fancy Bella 4.5-quart digital air fryer on discount, marked down to less than $70 (normally $120) as its Deal of the Day.

CNET's sister site Chowhound has a long list and dozens of great cookbooks cataloging all of the things you can make in an air fryer, which uses super convection and very little or no oil to achieve crispy fried-like results. Our favorites include chicken wings, french fries and just about anything from the frozen snacks aisle at Trader Joe's.

Snatch up this deal (today only) on an air fryer with digital controls for easy cook programming and Best Buy will ship it for free by Thursday. Or you can order online and pick it up in-store as soon as today.
