Amazon Prime Day is no longer one glorious day of deals just for Prime members. The flagship Prime Day now spans four days in July, and Amazon has added another annual event in October, too. This year, Prime Big Deal Days returns on October 7 and 8. Amazon says its October Prime Day event will deliver millions of deals across categories, giving customers a head start on holiday shopping.
Before the sale begins, it’s worth mapping out what gifts you need to buy or which household goods need restocking. But if you’re eager to get an even earlier jump on the holiday shopping, we have some good news. Early deals are already starting to creep in. While there aren’t a ton of deals to shop yet, there are some real gems.
Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 denote an all-time low price.
Best early Prime Day Apple deal
Opens in a new window
Why we picked this
“In terms of laptops, our favorite is the Apple MacBook Air with M4 chip. With the M4 chip, the performance differences between the Air and Pro are negligible, meaning you can go for the more affordable option and still delight in a speedy, high-performing laptop.
$799 is the best price we’ve ever seen on the Apple MacBook Air 13-inch model. It’s $200 off from its usual $999, saving you 20%.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Best early Prime Day headphone and earbud deal
Opens in a new window
Why we picked this
“In the lead up to Amazon’s October Prime Day, we’re looking across categories for the best early savings. One of our favorite categories — headphones and earbuds — is looking a little sparse when it comes to deals, but that’s not to say that there are no good early deals. We’ve found a few great ones.
Ahead of Prime Day, find the Beats Studio Buds for 47% off. That saves you $70 off its typical $149.95 MSRP. The Beats Studio Buds deliver well-balanced sound and active noise cancellation in a small package. Plus, like AirPods, they have easy connectivity to iOS systems, but unlike AirPods, they’re also well-suited for Android users.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Early Prime Day Bluetooth speaker deals
Best early Prime Day Kindle deal
Opens in a new window
Why we picked this
“The best Kindle deal isn’t actually on one of Amazon’s e-readers. Instead, Amazon is offering three months of Kindle Unlimited totally free. Think of it like a streaming service, except for e-books. Joining Kindle Unlimited gives you access to the Kindle Unlimited library, from which you can borrow. But unlike the library, there’s no due date on these borrowed books; the only restriction is that you can borrow up to 20 books at a time.
Leading up to and during Prime Big Deal Days, you can join Kindle Unlimited for three months — totally free. The promotion is available to everyone, even if you’ve already used up your free trial. This is a $35.97 value that you can score without spending a penny. Plus, you don’t actually need a Kindle to enjoy Kindle Unlimited. You can read from the Kindle library on your smartphone, tablet, or web browser.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter
Best early Prime Day Robot Vacuum deal
Opens in a new window
Why we picked this
“When it comes to robot vacuums, I always turn to Mashable’s in-house robot vacuum expert, Leah Stodart. When I asked her about these deals, she pointed out that iRobot marked down the Roomba Plus 405 to $399.99, making it one of the most affordable combo robot vacuums and mops. That saves you $265.01 off its list price of $665 for 40% off.
The Roomba Plus 405 includes both vacuum and mopping abilities, featuring strong suction to really scrub at dirt and grime. It features four cleaning levels that you can adjust from the iRobot app. Plus, its dock not only empties the vacuum, but even cleans the mopping pads for a truly hands-free experience.
While we’re not sure what other combo vacuum and mop deals are coming during Prime Big Deal Days, we can safely say that the Roomba Plus 405 is one of the best deals you can get ahead of the event.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter
