We can hardly believe it: another Prime Day is coming. Just as we’ve seen the past few years, Amazon is bringing back Prime Big Deal Days, its October sale event that’s essentially another Prime Day. This comes just three months after July’s Prime Day, which brought some decent deals, but admittedly, didn’t blow us away.
That being said, we’re looking ahead to what a new event brings. Amazon just announced that Prime Big Deal Days will run from Oct. 8 through Oct. 9 this year, and we’re keeping our eyes peeled in the meantime for the best deals ahead of the event. Because even when there isn’t a big sale event, there are always live deals ready.
Amazon has already launched an early sale leading up to Prime Big Deal Days for Prime members, that includes up to 55% off Echo devices, four free months of Amazon Music Unlimited, and $10 off one GrubHub order of $15+ with the code: PRIME10.
When is Amazon Prime Day?
Back in August, Amazon announced that Prime Big Deal Days would be in October, and the mega-retailer just confirmed our suspicions that October Prime Day will fall on Oct. 8 and Oct. 9 in 2024. The event will run for a full 48 hours, and we’re already seeing early deals popping up.
What kind of deals can you find this year?
If you’re familiar with Prime Day, you know what to expect. Two days of glorious deals on almost every product imaginable including headphones, tablets, laptops, robot vacuums, and the list goes on and on. While these sale events sometimes have a lot of junk brands from third parties to avoid, there are also plenty of products from our favorite retailers including Apple, Beats, Eufy, and more.

Apple iPad, 9th generation, 10.2-inch (A13, 64GB, WiFi)
$199.00
at Amazon
$329.00
Save $130.00
Why we like it
The iPad 9th generation has dropped down to the spectacular price of $199, the lowest price we’ve ever seen on this iPad — and any iPad ever, really. So while it isn’t the latest generation, it is the most affordable.
This tablet comes with the A13 chip, a powerful processor that lets you stream, browse the internet, and even game. Normally $329, the sweet price of $199 saves you $130 for 40% off. The price has been hanging around for a few weeks now, but there’s no guarantee it will last until Prime Big Deals Day.

The Amazon Echo Show 5 works as a smart home hub that’s more than just a speaker. It displays music, recipes, and even video calls with its built-in camera. While we normally prefer the Echo Show 8 over the 5, ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, we’re thoroughly pleased with the $50 discount on the Echo Show 5.
With code ECHOSHOW50, score the Amazon Echo Show 5 for just $39.99. That saves you $50, for 55% off.

Before there were AirPods, there were Beats. Despite the former taking on immense popularity, Beats are still a really fantastic pair of headphones. If you’re seeking a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, the Beats Studio Pros are a fantastic option with long battery life and top-tier sound quality. Beats have the same easy connectivity that you get with AirPods, connecting to iOS systems just by turning on. However, they also connect to Android devices with the same swiftness, something that AirPods can’t say.
The biggest knock Mashable’s Alex Perry had to give the Beats Studio Pro headphones in his review is the $349.99 price tag. Luckily, ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, they’re $100.04 off, bringing the price down to $249.95. That’s 29% off before the October Prime Day even kicks off.

Why we like it
Maybe your Bluetooth speaker kicked the dust this summer after one too many pool parties. If you find yourself in the market for a new one, Prime Day is an especially great time to hit add to cart.
The Sony SRS-XE200 X-Series Bluetooth speaker is on sale ahead of Prime Big Deal Days. It comes with a corded strap, making it easy to tote around on your adventures. With a IP67 rating, it’s water- and dust-proof, giving it a rugged build. Not to mention the 16 hours of battery life keeping the party going all day.
Ahead of the October Prime Day, this speaker is down to $66.74, from $129.99. That’s 49% off for $63.25 in savings.

50-inch Amazon Fire TV 4-Series 4K UHD Smart TV with Fire TV

Save $200.01
Why we like it
Who says you need to spend a grand to get a big, nice smart TV? This 50-inch Amazon Fire TV 4-Series is only $299.98 and features 4K Ultra HD resolution, Dolby Digital Plus, and HRD 10 for a brighter, clearer picture.
Amazon’s Fire TV is built-in, so you can watch your favorite shows, movies, and live TV channels from apps like Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, etc. And because this is an Amazon TV, Alexa is just a voice command away. There are also four HDMI inputs for gaming consoles, cable boxes, and more.
The only caveat to this TV is that this model doesn’t support two-way video calling or hands-free voice control (you have to press the Alexa button to summon her help), but that’s not a dealbreaker when the price is this good.

Is the Amazon Fire Stick 4K the best streamer we’ve ever tested? No, Roku takes the cake there. However, it still works perfectly fine, and not to mention, it’s hard to turn away from its delightful $30 price tag ahead of Prime Day. Having tested the Amazon Fire Stick TV, set-up is easy, as simple as plugging it into an HDMI port in the back of your TV.
While the home screen is a little clunky and slow, full of ads and promotions for Prime Video content, it is a dream for those who primarily stream on the site. With code ADD4K, the Amazon Fire Stick 4K is down to $24.99, saving you $25 and 50% off.

The Fitbit Sense Advanced Smartwatch is ideal for wellness-focused users.

The battery lasts six days on a full charge, and the fast-charge function gives you a full day’s worth of use after just 12 minutes of charging (up to 12 hours with GPS mode on).
