The Best Early Prime Day Deals to Shop Ahead of Amazon's Massive Sale
After Amazon confirmed the dates for its highly anticipated October Prime Day (or Prime Big Deals Day, as the brand dubbed it), the internet has been ablaze with speculation about what the massive event could entail — and more importantly, which products will be on sale.
Sure, Amazon is no stranger to a good deal; in fact, the retailer regularly boasts some of the lowest prices on the market. But with September winding down and the holiday season nearing, many shoppers are gearing up to take advantage of this year's Prime Day deals — and get a head start on their holiday shopping while they're at it.
Happening tomorrow, Oct. 8 and through Wednesday, Oct. 9, Amazon's October Prime Day will feature the retailer's biggest deals across a range of categories. In July, Amazon hosted another Prime Day event that offered savings of up to 70 percent off, with everything from major fashion deals and discounts on cult-favorite beauty products to markdowns on coveted home essentials and lightning deals on the coolest tech gadgets.
With Prime Day 2024 officially kicking off tomorrow, Amazon is touting plenty of early deals on its bestselling products in the meantime. Whether you're looking to treat yourself to a new buy (you deserve it) or want to cross a couple items off your holiday gifting list, you can shop the best early Prime Day deals ahead. Plus, make sure you sign up for Amazon Prime so that you don't miss a second of the savings once they're live.

Editor Quote: "Though I was worried the additional skin-care step would clog my pores over time, leading to pimples and what have you, my skin's texture has actually improved, and it feels way more even now. The hydration payoff is also huge, and I feel like it actually helps my moisturizer work better, too. For a while, I had been feeling as though the cream would just sit atop my skin after application, and now I feel like it's actually penetrating through and sinking in. Best of all, I finally feel close to glazed doughnut status." — Kelsey Garcia, associate content director, Balance

Editor Quote: "When wash day finally arrived, I prepped my damp, clean hair with a leave-in conditioner, hair oil, and a heat protectant. I then waited until my hair was about 85 percent dry, and I separated it into sections. I started out by running the brush through my ends, then curled and flipped the hair under. I repeated those steps for the middle and top sections, and in the end, I was left with a perfect blowout." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer
