October is more than just the month we celebrate Halloween in. It also means taking part in Amazon’s second big Prime Day of the year. The retailer’s “Prime Big Deal Days” sales event is on now through tomorrow, Oct. 9, with significant discounts you can shop now on everything from power stations to fashion and then some.
You’re probably aware that you can save hundreds on big-ticket items, from laptops to TVs and everything in between. But Prime Day is also a fantastic time to snap up fun and quirky items that are significantly more affordable. From amusing little gadgets to unconventional accessories, there’s tons of options for everyone looking to add a little fun to their shopping cart without spending an arm and a leg.
For those who prefer a strategic approach to shopping, we’ve got a list of the best overall Amazon Prime Day deals, as well as best deals under $50 or under $100 and specific discounts on Amazon devices. You’ll also want to keep an eye out for competitive deals from other major retailers like Walmart and Best Buy.
But if you’re on the lookout for stocking stuffers, fun little trinkets or white elephant gifts to share with coworkers, read on for a curated selection of Amazon deals to toss into your digital cart.
