Welcome to the Annual Best Deals on Succos/Sukkot items for 2015 post. Almost everything posted here is based on your email deal requests. If you've got any other deal requests, please let me know.
TABLES AND CHAIRS:
Walmart has their Mainstays 6-foot center-fold table in white or black for only $38.88 with free in-store pickup (free shipping starts with a $50 minimum order, or else it's a flat $4.97). This Mainstays table received 4.6 out of 5 stars over 1.611 customer reviews.

I know some of you are very particular about buying only the high-quality Lifetime brand outdoor tables. I found the best deal on the Lifetime 6-foot folding table at Lowe's for $44.98 with free in-store pickup (delivery is insanely expensive, so avoid it).
The best price on basic folding chairs is $9.98 at Lowe's. You can either a) get free shipping when you buy 5 or more (free shipping starts at $49) or b) pick them up for free at a Lowe's store or c) shipping for one to four chairs starts at $5.99.
TABLECLOTHS:
If you're shopping for long tablecloths for Sukkot, this is still one of the best deals around: Amazon has this 60" x 102" wrinkle- and stain-resistant white tablecloth for $9.97 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. This tablecloth is 8.5' long, so it will fit nicely over your 6' tables. Other sizes:
- 60" x 126" tablecloth for $11.99 (33 colors)
- 90" x 122" tablecloth for $13.99-$19.99 (6 colors)
- 90" x 156" tablecloth for $17.99 (8 colors)
- 90" round tablecoth for $11.58 (20 colors)
These tablecloths are not going to be among your finest linens, but they are durable, wrinkle-free, wash out beautifully, and are a Godsend during an 8 day holiday that is replete with huge outdoor meals and laundering restrictions. You can dress them up with a pretty runner and creative place settings. I think using one of these tablecloths is much nicer than covering a fine tablecloth covered with plastic, but that's just me. (But if you do need a good clear plastic tablecloth, this one is the best quality for the price).
- 100% polyester (Dacron)
- fold over hemmed edge
- seamless, one-piece design
- stain & wrinkle resistant, machine washable
Amazon has got the HLC.me 60" x 102" Floral Rose Damask Tablecloth for $11.99 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. It got 5 out of 5 stars over 46 customer reviews. Read the reviews before you buy; they are raves. The tablecloth comes in white, gold, terra orange and beige, all for the same price.
- Perfect for entertaining or casual dinners, beautiful woven rose damask design.
- Fits tables measuring 36" Inch x 80" Inch to tables 48" Inch x 92" Inch (8 to 10 People)
- Measures 60" Inch Wide x 102" Inch Long
- Made with incredibly soft 100% polyester
- Care: machine wash cold, gentle cycle. Use only non-chlorine bleach when needed. Tumble dry low.
Amazon has got this Regal Home Collections Laura Rose Damask 60" x 84" Oblong Tablecloth in white for $12.00 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. It got 3.8 out of 5 stars over 30 customer reviews, and most reviewers said this tablecloth was just beautiful. (Be aware that some purchasers complained that the material (100% polyester) was too thin, so adjust your expectations accordingly.)
LIGHTING:
Boardwalk Buy has got these 55-foot solar-powered string lights for $13.99, but use promo code CW15OFF at checkout to drop that price by 15% and you'll end paying $13.99-$2.10+$3.00 shipping=$14.89 shipped.
As soon as I saw these, I thought what a great idea for Sukkot! They don't require an energy source since they charge via the sun during the day, so you don't have to worry about being able to plug in electric string lights.
- No energy costs; No outlet needed
- Sun charges lights by day, turns on automatically
- 100 lights, 55 foot length
- Decorate anywhere without dangerous extension cord
I got this idea from my sister-in-law, Ellen. Since you can transfer flame on YomTov (but not on Shabbos), why not glam up your Sukkah at night with some beautiful candle chandeliers? Amazon has this Shabby Elegance Scrollwork Chandelier for $22.50 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. These hold just 3 candles, so I would use at least two of them.
Amazon has got this Moroccan Birdcage Hanging Lantern for only $10.65 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. If you decide to use a larger candle in this one, remember that you won't be able to extinguish it until after YomTov, so you might want to use a few tea lights in this lantern instead.
NEVER leave candles burning in an unattended Sukkah. Use tea lights for safety, and if you finish eating before the candles have burned out, bring them in the house with you until they do.

Amazon has got the 160 piece set of Reflections plasticware for $15.00 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.

Reflections are now an Amazon #1 Best Seller.
The 160 pieces include 80 forks, 40 spoons and 40 knives. That's 40 settings, at $0.38 per setting. I love this plasticware. If you've got to use paper and plastic, it really dresses up the table. These are fantastic for Succos.

OTHER TABLEWARE:

We use a jug with a spout like this one in our Sukkah for Netilat Yadayim (washing for bread). It speeds the meal along, eliminating the need to go back in the house to wash your hands. Amazon has this one for $8.97 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping. (During the year, we use it as a water carrier for the car when we go on outings or road trips.)

A waiter-style serving tray is absolutely essential for bringing food both in and out efficiently on Sukkot (though take a tip from me and bring the entire pot of soup into to the Sukkah and ladle it out there). This black Stanton Trading non-skid rubber-lined 14" plastic round economy serving tray is only $6.00 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.
Amazon has these gold-plated rose demi spoons for only $11.95 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping on Amazon. That rose detail on the handle is really pretty. I know they're meant for coffee. but I can use them for my honey platter and lots of other things (desserts, etc.). At slightly less than $3 per spoon, the price is definitely right.
