Prime Big Deal Days has officially started. The 48-hour sale kicked off today (October 8), and will serve up hundreds of early Black Friday deals on everything from OLED TVs to our favorite running shoes

Although Prime Big Deal Days will be this week's main event, Amazon competitors like Walmart, Best Buy, and Target are planning similar holiday sales with exclusive discounts of their own. In fact, Walmart already has loads of great deals live right now. In short, October is promising to be a busy month for bargain hunters. 

I've been covering deals for over a decade and I've reported on every Prime Day since its initial launch. While I'm excited for the events this week, I also know how overwhelming and overhyped some sales can be. Yes, there will be a lot of deals on Amazon's own Alexa-powered hardware and the latest Apple gear, but there will likely be many mediocre deals thrown into the mix as well. 

On this page I'll be rounding up the very best October Prime Day deals on apparel, home appliances, headphones, and all of the devices we've tested and recommend on Tom's Guide. Our mattress/sleep experts are also curating the best Prime Day mattress deals you can score right now. And we've also got our Prime Day live blog which includes up-to-the-minute deals. 

Personally, one of the best early October Prime Day deals I've seen already knocks up to 60% off select Blink devices. The sale includes the Blink Whole Home Bundle for $89. That's $110 off and cheaper than it was during this summer's Prime Day. 

Be sure to keep it locked to Tom's Guide for all of the best October Prime Day deals. Additionally, make sure to check out our list of the top best early deals on Amazon right now. (Also, browse through our guide of the best Amazon promo codes for more ways to save).

Keurig K-Mini: was $99 now $59 @ Amazon
This compact Keurig coffee maker won't take up much space on the counter, but still delivers a cup of Joe quickly. It can brew 6-12 ounces from the press of a button, although keep in mind it only holds one cup of water, so you will need to refill the tank regularly. It's available in a variety of colors including rose, oasis, black and red — some are more discounted than others at the time of writing. Read our full Keurig K-Mini review.

Ninja Foodi XL Pro Air Fry Convection Toaster Oven: was $299 now $219 @ Amazon
If you’re in the market for a new toaster oven, look no further than the Ninja Foodi XL. When testing the best toaster ovens, this model ranked as the easiest to use. That’s because the control panel is entirely contained on the handle which is both easy to see and access, as well as navigate. In testing, we found it baked and roasted well — producing a tender and crispy whole chicken. We also liked that there’s 10 functions to choose from and the option to cook on two levels. Check out our full Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 XL Pro Air Fry Oven DT201 review

This machine also boasts a 59-point planetary mixing action — fancy words that translate into incredibly mixed ingredients. Plus, it ships with a flat beater, coated dough hook, 6-wire whip, and 1-piece pouring shield.

Ninja Air Fryer Pro 4-in-1: was $119 now $89 @ Amazon (save $9 
The Ninja Air Fryer Pro 4-in-1 is my top-rated air fryer for most people. It's a great compact air fryer that's got plenty of power, and I enjoy that despite its limited 5-quart capacity, it can cook up enough fries or wings for a whole family. And because of the 400°F top temperature, it's going to give you a delicious, crispy texture.

This is the most affordable Alexa speaker Amazon sells, and it’s now been slashed to an even lower price. In our Echo Pop review, we were impressed by the speaker's sound for its small size.

The new Echo Spot (2024) is a cross between the Echo Dot and Echo Show. It lacks a camera, but sports a small basic LCD that displays the time, weather, album cover art, and smart home controls. In our Amazon Echo Spot review, we said it sits somewhere between the Echo Dot with Clock and the Echo Show 5, offering a good middle ground for those who want a smart speaker for their bedside with limited distractions.

Combining speedy performance, improved speakers and a dedicated smart home hub for Matter and Zigbee devices, this is our favorite smart display Amazon has made yet.

Ring Battery Doorbell Plus: was $149 now $99 @ Amazon

Ring Battery Doorbell Plus: was $149 now $99 @ Amazon
Want vertical head-to-toe video and package detection missing on from the entry-level Ring Doorbell? Then this is the Ring doorbell you want. In our Ring Battery Doorbell Plus review, we found it delivered excellent sqaured video that shows what's happening closer to your front door, was easy to install, and its battery lasted a good long time, too. 

Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus: was $199 now $119 @ Amazon

Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus: was $199 now $119 @ Amazon
If you have floodlight wiring then Ring's floodlight camera is a no-brainer. Its two LED floodlights pack an impressive 2000 lumens that will light up your driveway or spotlight intruders in the dark. Its 1080p camera is plenty sharp to make out details like the text on a shirt. Plus it even has a built-in 105-dB siren. Unlike the pricier Ring Floodlight Cam Pro, it lacks 5GHz Wi-Fi and the Bird's Eye View feature which marks a subject's movement along your property atop an aerial map. Otherwise, this provides steady protection with a crisp image for $80 off its regular price.

Ring Video Doorbell w/ Echo Show 5: was $189 now $109 @ Amazon

If you own smart home devices and don't have a control panel to control them, this is the deal for you. In our Amazon Echo Hub review we said the Editor's Choice device puts every aspect of your smart home at your fingertips with the ability to connect to thousands of devices effortlessly.

What is Prime Big Deal Days? 

Prime Big Deal Days 2024

(Image credit: Amazon)

Prime Big Deal Days is a Prime Day-like event held in October. In 2022, Amazon called its fall event the Prime Early Access Sale, but now it's referring to the event as Prime Big Deal Days. However, some people will refer to the sales event as "October Prime Day" as it's a much simpler name. 

Similar to July's Prime Day, Prime Big Deal Days promises discounts on everything from 4K TVs to kitchen appliances. Basically, if Amazon sells it, expect it to be on sale during the event. Expect to see the biggest savings on Amazon's own devices such as Echo smart speakers and Ring security cameras.   

When is Prime Big Deal Days?  

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days will start on Tuesday, October 8, 2024. Amazon is known for offering teaser deals the week before the event, but the best deals are traditionally reserved for October 8. The 48-hour event will then wrap up on October 9. 

Do I need Amazon Prime?  

In order to access the full range of deals during Prime Big Deal Days you will need an Amazon Prime subscription. We expect some of the sales to be open to all, but there will almost certainly be a selection of deals that are only available to those with a Prime account. 

If you want to partake without paying for a Prime account, You can sign up for a free Amazon Prime 30-day trial or a free 6-month trial if you're a student. Additionally, EBT and government assistance recipients can sign up for a free 30-day trial and get 50% off their membership should they keep it. 

Are Prime Big Deal Days sales any good? 

As with every major sale, there will always be good deals and mediocre deals. We don’t expect Prime Big Deal Days to be any different. In addition to deals on Amazon hardware, the retailer has previously offered deals on major brands like Nespresso, Samsung, iRobot, LEGO and Skechers. Amazon claims that Prime Day features their lowest prices of the year, and in some cases, that's certainly true.

Nevertheless, we still advise proceeding with caution as every retailer has its fair share of overhyped deals. So we recommend that you always price-check deals using a site called CamelCamelCamel. The site lets you track the price history of select items sold on Amazon.
