Afterpay Day is back for the second time this year, and Australia's leading retailers are once again providing some exceptional discounts across a number of categories, including tech, appliances, fashion and more.

The sale event commenced at 8am AEST on Thursday, August 15 and will run until 11:59pm AEST on Sunday, August 18 — that means four days of epic deals! 

While the event is named after the popular 'buy now pay later' service, you should know that you many of the deals you'll find during the sale won't actually require you to use Afterpay. Of course, it's always handy to have the option of splitting your online purchases into four fortnightly payments.

Make sure to check back regularly over the four-day sales period, because we'll be keeping this page updated with any worthy deals we find! So without further ado, here are the 10 best Afterpay deals worth nabbing right now.
