Did you catch the Dunkin' ad during the Big Game? Dunkin' reimagined Good Will Hunting as a sitcom, including cameos from the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Matt LeBlanc, Jason Alexander, Ted Danson, Alfonso Ribeiro, Jaleel White, and Jasmine Guy. It was a welcome hit of '90s nostalgia.

During the commercial, Dunkin' announced that it would be giving away 1.995 million free iced coffees of any size to customers who use the code GOODWILLDUNKIN in the Dunkin’ app on Feb. 9. Simply download the Dunkin' app to your smartphone (it's free) and use the code at the checkout. It's that easy.

Dunkin’ has also dropped a collection of authentic vintage and ’90s-inspired clothing that very much fits the vibe of the commercial.

If the Big Game really highlighted how much you need to upgrade your TV, we've got some good news for you. It's still one of the best times to buy a new one, as several 2025 models are on sale — including this 85-incher from Hisense.

As of Feb. 9, you can get the Hisense 85-inch QD7 Mini LED QLED 4K TV for only $799.99 at Amazon or Best Buy. That's 38% or $500 off its list price of $1,299.99 and only $2 away from its best-ever price from Black Friday.

This deal really highlights why Hisense is one of our favorite TV brands; you can get top-notch features for a wallet-friendly price. Our friend at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) named the QD7 model the best budget TV, thanks to its full array local dimming, excellent contrast, and fully saturated picture. TV expert Ty Pendlebury says it offers "the best price-to-performance ratio of any model I have ever reviewed" and heartily recommends it.

It's built with the Fire TV operating system and has Alexa built in, so you can press a button on the remote and ask it for content recommendations, sports scores, or to adjust your smart home lighting. Its native 144Hz panel with Motion Rate 480, Game Mode Pro, and AMD FreeSync Premium offer gamers a smooth, lag-free gaming experience. Plus, an AI upscaler and Filmmaker Mode ensure your streaming sessions look as good as possible.

If a TV upgrade is in order, but you don't want to spend a ton of money, the Hisense QD7 is an excellent value.

Bad Bunny promised good vibes and a whole lot of dancing during his Super Bowl halftime show, and he didn’t disappoint. But beneath the perreo-ready hits and viral clips was something deeper.

The performance unfolded as a densely layered visual essay, moving from Puerto Rico's sugar cane fields to New York bodegas, from reggaetón history to quiet political protest, and packing decades of memory, migration, and resistance into just 13 minutes of television.

SEE ALSO: Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show: See it now if you missed it

From set pieces referencing the island's ongoing infrastructure collapse following Hurricane Maria to cameos honoring small-business legends and community elders, nearly every frame carried meaning. Some references were immediately legible. Others were designed for the fans who know where to look.

It was a case of storytelling: a reminder that Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio didn't just bring Puerto Rico to the Super Bowl. He brought its history with him. Here are some of the Easter eggs you may have missed.

Returning to the roots of the sugar cane fields

Before fireworks, choreography, or surprise cameos, Bad Bunny began his Super Bowl halftime show in a quiet, sunlit sugar cane field, worlds away from the stadium spectacle to come.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Sugar cane fields are deeply woven into Puerto Rico's history, tied to colonial exploitation and the agricultural labor of generations of working-class people. By opening the performance there, Bad Bunny grounded his global moment in the island's past, honoring the people whose work and resilience built Puerto Rico long before it became a cultural export. It was a reminder that everything that followed grew from this soil first.

Bad Bunny's "Ocasio 64" jersey carries history

When Bad Bunny stepped onto the Super Bowl stage in a custom Zara jersey stitched with the name "Ocasio" and the number "64," it immediately sparked speculation. The name referenced his full surname, Martínez Ocasio. The number, however, carried a heavier weight.

SEE ALSO: Bad Bunny's 'Ocasio 64' jersey meaning explained

On a personal level, "64" honors his late uncle, who once wore the same number as an athlete. But it also echoes the Puerto Rican government’s initial claim of just 64 deaths after Hurricane Maria in 2017 — a figure later revealed to be a devastating undercount.

Falling into YHLQMDLG

Midway through "Party," Bad Bunny plunged through the roof of the casita into a family's blue living room, a moment that felt both unexpected and deeply intentional.

The visual mirrored the aesthetic of his 2020 album YHLQMDLG, whose blue-hued visualizers defined an era fans never got to see live. The pandemic canceled that tour, making the Super Bowl moment a belated love letter to longtime listeners who’ve been riding with him since the beginning.

Toñita's surprise cameo

Among the star-studded spectacle, one of the night's most meaningful appearances belonged to someone far from the pop spotlight: Maria Antonia "Toñita" Cay, the beloved owner of Caribbean Social Club.

A fixture of Puerto Rican life in Williamsburg for decades, Toñita has been name-checked in Bad Bunny's lyrics and embraced by the Nuyorican community. Her presence in the show was about honoring the everyday institutions that keep culture alive.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Victor Villa and the power of the side hustle

Another blink-and-you'll-miss-it guest was Victor Villa, the founder of Villa's Tacos. You'll see Benito pass a Villa's Tacos truck during "Tití Me Preguntó."

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Villa's journey — from selling tacos in his grandmother's yard to running acclaimed brick-and-mortar locations — mirrors Bad Bunny's own narrative of grassroots success. His cameo not only celebrated immigrant hustle but also spoke to Bad Bunny's larger message of believing in where you come from, a belief he made explicit when he told Super Bowl viewers that he never stopped believing in himself and that others should believe in themselves, too.

Coco frío and island street life

During "Tití Me Preguntó," Bad Bunny moved past dancers gathered around a coco frío cart, a small detail loaded with nostalgia. Fresh coconut water, sold by street vendors across Puerto Rico, is part of daily life on the island. By centering it in a Super Bowl spectacle, Bad Bunny elevated an ordinary ritual into a symbol of home.

"Gasolina" and the lineage of reggaetón

No, your ears did not deceive you. After blending "Yo Perreo Sola" and "Voy a Llevarte Pa’ PR," Bad Bunny pivoted into a snippet of "Gasolina" by Daddy Yankee, a defining anthem of the genre.

The track, inducted into the Library of Congress in 2023, helped globalize reggaetón in the 2000s. Bad Bunny's performance also sampled Tego Calderón's "Pa’ Que Retozen" and Don Omar's "Dale Don Dale," situating himself within a living musical lineage.

Concho the toad makes an appearance

Before launching into "Monaco," the camera cut to an image of Concho, the animated amphibian mascot of Bad Bunny's latest album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos. Modeled after the endangered Puerto Rican crested toad, Concho represents environmental fragility and cultural survival.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Jíbaros, power lines, and "El Apagón"

Men in straw hats (pavas) and white clothing — jíbaros, Puerto Rico’s traditional mountain farmers — appeared climbing power lines, blending folklore with modern crisis.

Historically associated with rural life and folk music, jíbaros symbolize resilience. Here, their placement on broken infrastructure referenced post–Hurricane Maria privatization, rolling blackouts under LUMA Energy, and the economic displacement explored in the song "El Apagón." It was a visual essay on who gets left behind when "progress" arrives.

Ricky Martin's Spanish-language reclamation

When Ricky Martin joined to perform "Lo Que Pasó a Hawaii," the moment felt both nostalgic and quietly radical. For an artist long associated with English-language crossover hits like "Livin' la Vida Loca" and "She Bangs," returning to a Spanish-language ballad on the Super Bowl stage carried its own symbolism.

The song reflects on migration and loss. Singing entirely in Spanish, sitting in a monobloc chair, marked how far Latin music has pushed the mainstream. What once felt risky now feels inevitable.

The light blue flag of Puerto Rican independence

At one point, Bad Bunny held la bandera con azul celeste, the light-blue version of Puerto Rico's flag linked to the independence movement.

Once associated with calls for Puerto Rican sovereignty and traced back to pre-U.S. colonial revolts, the light-blue variant of the Puerto Rican flag has become a symbol of resistance and cultural pride. Historians identify azul celeste as the original shade tied to late-19th-century independence movements, and its use today often signals a deeper conversation about the island's identity.

Bad Bunny previously featured it in "La Mudanza," and bringing it to the Super Bowl transformed a political statement into a global broadcast.

A quiet nod to Haiti's visual history

In one of the show's most subtle visual callbacks, a woman waving Haiti's flag wore a green-and-orange ribbed knit top that closely echoed Jay Maisel's 1973 Haiti series, particularly "Haiti No. 59." The styling — easy to miss amid the spectacle — felt deliberately precise, mirroring the texture, color, and composition of Maisel's iconic image.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Lady Gaga and the maga flower

Lady Gaga’s baby-blue dress, paired with a red floral brooch resembling Puerto Rico's national maga flower, was more than a fashion moment. Designed by Luar founder Raul Lopez, the look wove national symbolism into couture, reinforcing the night’s emphasis on Puerto Rican pride.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. "La Marqueta" and the roots of diaspora

During "NUEVAYoL," Bad Bunny walked past a New York–style streetscape featuring a storefront labeled "La Marqueta."

The real La Marqueta in East Harlem was once a hub for Latino immigrants, helping shape Spanish Harlem in the mid-20th century. Its inclusion honored the diaspora communities that carried Puerto Rican culture beyond the island — and brought it back, amplified, to the global stage.

"Together We Are America"

Toward the end of the halftime performance, Bad Bunny — notably speaking in English — said, "God Bless America." He then expanded the phrase to encompass all the countries of the Americas, not just the United States, re-framing it as a message of unity and belonging. Holding up a football emblazoned with "Together We Are America," he made the point explicit.

Then, switching back to Spanish, he added: "seguimos aquí" ("we’re still here"), before spiking the ball and launching into "DtMF." The moment crystallized the show's larger thesis: presence as resistance, visibility as power, and community as the foundation of everything.

The messaging app Discord says it will start requiring people to verify their age with identity documents, face scans, even in regions where age checking is not legally required. The change is planned for next month.

Best Dyson beauty deals Dyson Supersonic Nural $399.99 (save $150) Get Deal Dyson Airwrap i.d. $499.99 (save $150) Get Deal

Valentine's Day is less than a week away, but if you haven't bought a gift just yet, Dyson's giving last-minute shoppers a pretty sweet deal.

Well, technically two deals. As of Feb. 9, you can grab the Dyson Supersonic Nural hair dryer for $399.99, saving you $150 on the $549.99 list price. The same discount is also available on the Dyson Airwrap i.d. multi-styler, which comes down to $499.99 from its full price of $649.99.

At the time of writing, neither tool is on sale at Amazon, and while the Airwrap i.d. is on sale at Best Buy for the same price, the Supersonic Nural is still at full price. Sephora, on the other hand, has both the Airwrap i.d. and Supersonic Nural on sale, but only in the amber silk colorway, whereas Dyson's site offers more variety.

So which is the best to pick up for your boo (or yourself)? As Mashable's beauty tech expert, I broke it down below.

I've tested every Supersonic model available, and while I maintain the supremacy Shark FlexStyle in a pure value sense, the Airwrap i.d. is the multi-styler that made me most get Dyson's popularity. Typically, the curling barrels on multi-stylers provide more of a blown out than truly curled look — and if your hair has trouble holding a style, the wave you do get might not last.

The Airwrap i.d. makes this process better by including a conical barrel in the attachments for tighter curls, and automatic temperature cycling — meaning the hair is hit with properly timed hot then cool air with the press of a button — making styling with this tool as mindless as it should be. In addition to the conical curling attachment, you'll get five more attachments (which vary slightly depending on whether you opt for the straight and wavy or curly and coily model).

This is not the hair dryer for the dupe lover. This is the hair dryer for the person who rarely air drys, and wants one of the fastest and easiest hair dry experiences on the market. It comes with smart attachments that automatically adjust temperature and air speed, a scalp protect mode for closer and more comfortable drying, and automatic pausing. For textured hair folks, the diffuser has a removable center that's especially useful for pixie diffusing and maximizing your volume potential.

Of course, it comes with a nice 240Hz refresh rate, a 1 millisecond response time, and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. There's also something to be said about gaming on a Quantum Mini-LED display.

Nice extras include the ergonomic stand from Samsung and the DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB hub. There's also the Samsung Picture-by-Picture feature which gives you access to viewing two sources at the same time in their native resolution.

While we're still in the depths of winter, upgrade your gaming set up with the 57-inch Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 curved gaming monitor. Since you'll be saving $800 thanks to Amazon's sale price, you'll be able to snag new game titles or maybe even an ultra-comfortable gaming chair.

DeWalt is known for its bright yellow drills, high-torque impact drivers, and powerful reciprocating saws, the heavy-duty gear essential for construction and carpentry. However, just focusing on its core power tools means you're missing out on where the brand has expanded.

YouTube Music is rolling out new community-focused features aimed at superfans and expanding its use of paywalls, including a requirement that users subscribe to Premium to view full song lyrics.

According to reporting from 9to5Google, YouTube Music has begun enforcing a lyrics paywall globally after months of testing. Free users are now limited to viewing lyrics only a handful of times before being prompted to subscribe to either YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium. Once that limit is reached, lyrics are partially blurred and cannot be scrolled unless the user upgrades.

SEE ALSO: Google Maps adds Gemini to a major feature in new test

The company offers five free lyric views before the restriction takes effect, signaling a clear shift toward monetizing features that were previously free. Mashable reached out to YouTube for comment, but did not receive a response before publication.

The move comes as YouTube Music is simultaneously positioning itself as a more social and fandom-driven platform. As Mashable previously reported in August, the service recently introduced Spotify-like features such as comments on albums and playlists, shared "taste-matching" playlists that update daily, and artist-focused tools like milestone badges and live event notifications through a partnership with Bandsintown.

YouTube Music Premium currently costs $10.99 per month in the U.S., while the broader YouTube Premium subscription runs $13.99 and includes ad-free viewing across YouTube, background playback, offline downloads, and access to experimental AI features. Google has reported more than 325 million paid subscriptions across its consumer services, with YouTube playing a major role in that growth. In 2025 alone, YouTube generated more than $60 billion in revenue from ads and subscriptions combined.

Still, the decision to gate lyrics behind a paywall may feel like a step backward for some users, particularly as competitors like Spotify continue to offer full lyrics for free.

If you’ve noticed a Wi-Fi signal blind spot in a corner of your home, you’ve probably thought about buying a Wi-Fi repeater to fix it.

Apple just released a new AirTag model, but it's reportedly not done with product launches for the first part of 2026 yet.

By the end of March, we could have new revisions of the iPhone E-series, new iPads, and new MacBooks to play around with, according to Mark Gurman's latest newsletter at Bloomberg. The prolific Apple reporter claimed a product launch could come as soon as March 2. Without wasting any more time, let's get into all of the major products Apple could launch by the end of March.

SEE ALSO: Apple's iPhone 17e to launch 'imminently,' report claims iPhone 17e

Last year, the iPhone 16e offered great battery life and modern Apple software features for the relatively low price of $599. People who bought one didn't get high-end camera support or anything like that, but they did get the ability to stay in the contemporary Apple ecosystem for a long time without breaking the bank. According to Gurman, we're getting another one of those very soon.

Gurman said the iPhone 17e is "due imminently," with the iPhone 17's A19 chip and MagSafe charging as two big new features. On top of that, it will reportedly still cost $599, so it's just a straightforward upgrade over last year's model without a higher price point. It's still not as cheap as the old iPhone SE was, but good things rarely last forever.

New iPads

According to Gurman, we're also getting minor revisions to the iPad family soon. There will be a new entry-level base iPad and a new iPad Air, both of which will have new processors powering them. The former will be powered by the A18 chip and the latter by the M4 chip. Per Bloomberg's report, the A18 chip in the basic iPad will enable Apple Intelligence features on that device for the first time. Sadly, it sounds like that's about all you can expect from these devices.

New MacBooks

As for MacBooks, this product category has the most potential action of any of them for the first half of the year. Gurman reported that there will be new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models and a new MacBook Air with an M5 processor. Gurman also referenced a new Mac Studio desktop and even a new Studio Display monitor, though it's unclear if all of these are going to launch in the March window described above, or just vaguely before the halfway point of 2026.

Perhaps the most intriguing new Mac computer that we could see in the first half of the year is the alleged budget MacBook. Gurman says it will have a 13-inch display and an iPhone-caliber chip inside of it, all for a price that should be significantly less than $1,000. Given the price of a decent laptop these days, that would be huge. As someone whose slightly older MacBook badly needs a battery replacement, I wouldn't say no to one of these at all.

Scams are unfortunately ubiquitous in the digital age — and a new survey suggests that a growing number of bad actors are pretending to be your loved ones.

Phone number verification tool ClarityCheck just conducted a survey of around 1,900 adults in the U.S., UK, and European Union, and found that 64 percent of respondents have encountered a suspicious message or call that seemed to come from someone they knew.

SEE ALSO: Beware Instagram reset password scams that users report are on the rise

Of those, nearly half involved impersonating a former romantic partner or close friend. Thirty-eight percent initially believed the scammer was genuine for several days or longer — even when the scammer asked for money or sensitive information.

The survey results highlight how scammers prey on people's vulnerability. Romance scammers and pig butchering schemes attempt to build trust with their targets before requesting money or data. ClarityCheck found that respondents who recently went through a breakup, relocation, or period of prolonged isolation were 52 percent more likely to engage with someone suspicious for an extended period.

"When someone appears to know your emotional history, the usual warning signs are displaced by recognition and trust," Ihor Herasymov, managing director of ClarityCheck, stated in a press release. "The damage is not only financial. It often reshapes how people perceive their past relationships and their own judgment."

"This type of fraud works because it does not feel like fraud," said Herasymov.

In recent months, lawmakers have attempted to curb romance scams. Back in September, two senators urged the CEO of Match Group to act on these types of cons, but no update has been made public. In the meantime, Tinder has implemented required facial scans for new users, and Hinge plans to test them as well.

As much as we try to ignore it, sleep is a major part of life. Ask any parent of a young child or someone who's dealing with jet lag and they'll confirm that sleep makes a big difference. It impacts our mood, cognitive ability, and even the immune system.

We have tons of great tech that helps us get restorative slumber like sleep earbuds that are comfortable enough for side sleepers, smart beds that adjust temperature automatically, and air purifiers that help with breathing in healthy air. But those probably won't help all that much if your mattress is uncomfortable. A good bed is both supportive of your back, shoulders, and hips while also being comfortable enough to keep you sound asleep. If that's not happening, it might be time for a new bed.

Just like how there's a best time of the year to buy a new TV, mattresses have a few standout sale times. President's Day happens to be one of the best times to score a major discount on a new mattress, bedding, and pillows. If you bedroom or your guest room has been asking for a refresh, check out these deals.

Last spring when I tested the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid mattress, I was shocked by the quality to price ratio. It feels like a luxury mattress you'd encounter at a 5-star hotel, but its price falls into the affordable range. In fact, a single night's stay at some 5-star resorts would cost more than this mattress.

The DreamCloud Premier is a hybrid bed that combines a plush pillow-top with ultra supportive memory foam and coil layers. The edge-support is also noteworthy. When testing, I felt like this was a great option for couples thanks to the motion isolation or anyone who's a combination sleeper and needs support in several positions.

The DreamCloud Presidents Day Sale tosses in a mattress protector, bamboo sheet set, and two cooling pillows. If you're shopping for a queen-size, you'll be able to get the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid with these accessories for $1,099.

If you shop for organic food and look for clothing made of natural materials, you might want to opt for an organic mattress.

Aside from the all-organic materials and glue-free design, one of the highlights of the Naturepedic Serenade Organic Hybrid Mattress is its customization options. You can get the mattress in plush, cushion-firm, or firm to best suit your sleeping style and needs. Plus, wool and cotton are naturally breathable materials, so this could be excellent if you tend to sleep hot.

You might think that SSDs are the perfect storage solution. They’re lightweight, compact, and offer blazing-fast read and write speeds. I do think they’re the perfect storage solution for everything but one use case. Here’s where traditional hard drives still reign supreme.

Save $109.99: As of Feb. 9, you can find brand-new Apple AirPods Pro 2 earbuds for just $139.99, slashing an impressive 44% off their $249 price tag. This puts them just 99 cents away from their lowest price ever.

As a shopping reporter on the headphones and earbuds beat, I take notice when Apple earbuds drop down to record-low prices.

And while we're not quite back down to a record low, 99 cents away feels close enough — especially when it's on a previous generation model that can be harder to find brand new. That's exactly the case with the Apple AirPods Pro 2 at Woot, which are on sale for $139.99, knocking $109.99 off their $249 list price.

Though Woot is often a retailer for refurbished products, these buds are brand new, which isn't a given considering their discontinued status: at the time of writing, they're sold out at Amazon and Walmart and more expensive than the Pro 3 earbuds at Target and Best Buy.

It is worth noting that the AirPods Pro 2 hit the market in 2022, with a USB-C port refresh in 2023. While they're not exactly top of the line anymore, they are a great option, especially for users in the Apple ecosystem who don't want to shell out $200 or more for the newer AirPods Pro 3 (with the Pro 3 being a 2025 release, I'm not holding my breath for price drops lower than that for at least the next few months).

These earbuds still have solid active noise cancellation, interchangeable silicone ear tips, personalized spatial audio, and house the same H2 chip as the Pro 3 earbuds. You'll sacrifice mostly on not having the best of the best — the battery life is six hours to the Pro 3's eight, the noise cancellation isn't as powerful, and features like heart rate monitoring and live translation aren't available on the older buds.

Still, for $140, they're a great buy if you're not looking to pay premium prices. You'll want to grab this deal while it's live for the next seven days on Woot — or until supplies last.

Having the right tools for the job can make all the difference in the world. But eventually, you'll have to deal with an odd angle or a tight space that slows you down. Not to mention having to stop, find another tool, swap the battery, and start again. That's where the weird Milwaukee Installation Driver comes to save the day.

LineageOS is a popular custom Android distribution, allowing many phones and tablets (even ancient ones) to run a clean version of Android with optional Google services. Now, LineageOS 23.2 has arrived with a fresh new design and updated applications.

If you were around in the late 90s and early 2000s, you remember how technology seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. Eventually, we expected cassette and CD players to be as small as the media themselves–but that didn't happen.

Right now, you can score 10% to 20% off brands like Uber, DoorDash, and Instacart. Since many of these are e-gift cards, they can be delivered instantly to your giftee's inbox. Just make sure you double-check which delivery method is selected before checkout; if you accidentally choose a physical card, you might be cutting it too close for the holiday. (Though most offer overnight delivery with Prime.)
