PSA for avid Amazon shoppers: Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, a fall savings event that can best be compared to Amazon Prime Day, started yesterday and runs through tonight at 11:59pm PST. The 48-hour sale falls a little over a month before we head into Black Friday and holiday chaos, so it’s a smart time to cross items off your gift shopping list before the mad rush (or before they sell out). From Apple gadgets to golf gear, you’re not going to want to miss the major deals from this short-lived sale. Heads up, you’ll need to be a Prime member to cash in on deals.
SHOP PRIME BIG DEAL DAYS EARLY
Ahead, we’re breaking down everything you need to know about Prime Big Deal Days, and all the best MH-approved deals worth adding to your cart if you’re shopping the sale. We’ll be keeping this updated throughout the event as the deals come and go.
Some of the best-selling items from Prime Day in July are seeing price drops. Think AirPods Pro (2nd Gen), which are down to just $189, the lowest price we’ve ever seen. Editor-tested finds, like a protein shaker bottle that makes your post-workout routine that much easier, and a Therabody massage gun for less than $200 are just a few of the highlights.
No matter what you’re shopping for, odds are in your favor you’ll find it on sale during the October Prime Day sale.
Prime Day events are some of the best times of the year to save on tech gadgets. There’s deals like $500 off a MacBook Pr0 if you’ve been waiting for a laptop upgrade, or you can snag a budget-friendly Amazon Echo for less than $25. There’s also editor-tested headphones that will come in handy when holiday travel kicks into high gear.
If your workout routine changes with the season, it’s smart to take advantage of these fitness deals to upgrade your home gym for the indoor months. Choose from basic gear like a jump rope or resistance bands, or this protein shaker bottle that our editors shopped in Prime Days past and saves time making your recovery smoothie. There’s fitness deals spanning almost any need and budget.
Believe it or not, Amazon is chock full of fashion deals, from brands we love to staples like underwear and socks. Right now, you can even score a cozy Columbia fleece pullover for less than $40 that’s perfect for chilly fall mornings.
Whether you’re looking for a stylish pair of sneakers for nights out with friends or a new pair of running kicks, there are Prime Day shoe deals across the board. Two of my top picks: the Brooks Ghost 14s are great neutral running shoes and the New Balance 997 V1s have that retro dad-sneaker look that’s on trend.
Best October Prime Day Travel Deals
From packing cubes to keep you organized to a hardside carry-on from Samsonite, your upcoming holiday travel can get a major upgrade thanks to these travel deals. There’s a garment bag that rolls up and is great for packing suits for weddings and formal events and even a set of three suitcases for less than $60.
