Spring is inherently a motivational time for anyone who just can't do winter, arguably making it a better time than New Year's to start and stick to a new hobby.

If you're eyeing anything cooking related as your 2025 hobby, a KitchenAid mixer should definitely be in the mix. Best Buy's Drop of the day for March 4 just happens to be a Black Friday-worthy mixer deal: Get the $449.99 KitchenAid 5.5-quart bowl-lift stand mixer for $199.99. That's more than 50% off its usual $449.99 when you buy it through the Best Buy app. For reference, you'll be getting one of the most premium KitchenAid mixers for less than the Black Friday pricing of several smaller capacity mid-tier Artisan mixers.

To unlock this steal, all you have to do is check out in the "Drops" tab of the Best Buy mobile app. Drops only last for one day, but may be gone sooner than the official end of the day if inventory sells out — which it often does.

This particular KitchenAid has a bowl-lift design, which is sturdier and more ideal for large or thick batches than the less expensive tilt-head design. That durability also allows the bowl-lift models to harness double the power of the tilt-head ones, plus more flexibility when choosing a speed setting. If dough-intensive recipes like bagels or cinnamon rolls are high on your "to make from scratch" list, the bowl-lift is the way to go.

Past the mixer and stainless steel bowl, a dough hook, flat beater, and wire beater are also included with your purchase. There are a ton of attachments for KitchenAids, so consider putting your savings toward one of those. Think homemade pasta.
