TL;DR: As of March 23, Best Buy has a couple of AKRacing and Gamdias gaming chairs on sale for up to 46% off.

Aside from maybe crappy WiFi and a poorly stocked snack cabinet, few things sour the work-from-home experience faster than uncomfortable seating. (And that applies even if you're just running virtual errands for Tom Nook.) Oh, the stool at your kitchen counter doesn't provide ample back support? I never would've guessed.

Experts recommend resisting the temptation to spend the majority of the day on your couch or in bed — both arrangements can throw your alignment out of whack while putting your brain into relaxation mode, making it near impossible to get shit done. For the sake of your posture and your productivity, it's worth investing in a different kind of setup.

If the idea of a standing desk doesn't appeal to you, your next best option is a quality gaming chair, which is specially designed to support good posture and alleviate stiffness to help you stay focused amid a sedentary lifestyle. Here are a few we found on sale at Best Buy:
