This is not a drill… Amazon's fall sale - officially known as Prime Big Deal Days - is coming! The 48-hour sale, which is similar to July's Prime Day, is set to kick off on October 8.
So basically, you’ll find some of the best prices of the year whether you’re looking for top brands or trending budget-friendly Amazon steals.
I’m sucker for a great Prime Day discount, whether on Amazon Echo devices or trending beauty buys, and this once-a-year event is arguably even better because it gives us a chance to get our holiday shopping done for less – and early!
Plus, it’s a great chance to treat yourself to bigger buys you might have been holding off on.
So, you can check out the Amazon Prime Big Deals Day hub or keep scrolling to see my favorite deals to shop now.
What should I shop for on Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2024?
Beauty bargains were tops with HELLO! Readers in the October 2023 Amazon sale, with Biotulin’s instant wrinkle serum, Nioxin’s popular hair loss products, and Truskin Vitamin C serum among the top buys.
For tech, you loved headphones and earbuds from Apple, Bose and Beats Studio and Amazon Smart Plugs - which I happen to love - were also a big hit as people rushed to create instant smart homes in the run up to the holidays.
More amazing deals for home, like discounts on premium brands like Dyson and Ninja were hot, as were fashion buys from the likes of Levi’s.
And lots of our readers got ahead of the holidays by purchasing their advent calendars early, as well as toys - the Polly Pocket Pollyville Playset was a big seller with HELLO! readers.
How I choose the best deals
For both early deals and the actual event discounts, I use my years of shopping expertise to pick the best of the sale:
- Trends: I’m an expert when it comes to the real data on what HELLO! readers are most interested in buying specifically in Amazon sales - whether it’s big ticket items with big discounts, celebrity favorites or TikTok famous beauty.
- Discount: I’m a bargain shopper myself and know what’s tempting! So I look for the highest discounts, ranging from 20% - 80%.
- Top reviews: If there’s a case where I haven’t tried a product myself, I thoroughly examine the reviews. We don’t want you to be disappointed in one of our recommendations and have to return the products, so as a rule the HELLO! Shopping team won’t include products that has overal bad ratings or reviews.
