As many know, while Prime Day 2024 has already happened, Amazon has another big Prime event later in the year. Last year, they called it Prime Big Deal Days, and we’re excited to learn that’s returning this year. Slated to take place a few weeks from now, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days will kick off from Tuesday, October 8 to Wednesday, October 9. We can expect some huge markdowns, flash deals, and lots of discounts and offers on various gear, from home decor and furniture to toys, games, and tools. It’s going to be huge.
Some brands that Amazon has specifically called out include LEGO, Squishmallows, Disney, Amazon Essentials, NEST New York, Lenox, Lodge, and many more. That spans toys to home decor and winter fashion. Alongside the event, Amazon will be sharing Holiday Gift Guides, complete with trending and on-sale items to help you find what you’re looking for. Of course, don’t forget our guides here at Digital Trends, especially on all of the best deals we’ve found.
What kind of discounts can we expect from Prime Big Deal Days in October?
Amazon has shared that there will be deals on toys, Halloween costumes, and accessories — just in time for the holiday — and savings on a wide variety of essentials from home goods to apparel. If you’re looking to save on some new outfits, you can enjoy up to 40% off winter fashion from Amazon Essentials. But here’s the thing, you don’t have to wait until October to start saving. Amazon already has a smattering of .
For example, you can save up to 55% off select Amazon devices. Or, how about 40% off on Carnival cruises? We’re barely scratching the surface here so I highly recommend you take a look at some of those early deals for yourself.

If you want to learn more about them be sure to check out Digital Trends’ Apple AirTag review.
JBL Tour Pro 3 True Wireless Earbuds with 90 Days of Amazon Music Unlimited — $300
While this deal doesn’t come in the form of a monetary discount, you are getting 90 days of access to Amazon Music Unlimited with your purchase — that’s about three months. Amazon Music Unlimited is Amazon’s streaming music service with access to custom playlists, and tons of music from all the latest and greatest artists. You’ll be able to listen on your new JBL Tour Pro 3 wireless earbuds, which we love by the way. We gave it high marks in our JBL Tour Pro 3 review, and Simon Cohen praised them highly. They offer great sound quality, tons of extra features, and improved call quality, and the case even works as a wireless transmitter. This deal basically gets you three months of unlimited music streaming on your new headphones for free.
Shark AI Ultra Voice Control Robot Vacuum — $330, was $599
Cleaning is an endless chore but with a robot vacuum, you can cut down on how much time you spend doing it. That’s especially true of an advanced system like Shark’s AI Ultra Voice Control smart vacuum. It uses intelligent navigation to move around the home, without getting stuck or running over objects. More importantly, it features a 60-day cleaning capacity with a self-empty base. That means it will return to its base between cleanings, empty the dustbin, and charge. Plus, hands-free voice controls through Alexa or Google Assistant allow you to schedule cleanings, activate the vacuum and more. This deal drops the price to a super-enticing low.
HP 21.5-inch AIO PC plus an external hard drive — $515, was $650
As part of an early deal, this HP all-in-one PC is available at a huge discount. It’s already discounted by $100, down to $550 from $650. However, when you clip an on-page coupon you’ll get an additional $35 off, bringing the final price down to $515. That is one heck of a deal, especially since this particular AIO comes with a 512GB solid-state drive installed and an extra 500GB external hard drive. Of course, if you don’t know about AIOs, everything is tucked inside the monitor. So, the processor, RAM, motherboard, and other components are hidden and it takes up minimal space on your desk or counter. It makes for an excellent shared family computer.
Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme — $690, was $760
If you haven’t yet invested in the world of handheld PC gaming — a la Steam Deck — then this is a great entry point. In our Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme review, gaming expert Jacob Roach praised its solid performance, acceptable battery life, beautiful screen, and widespread PC gaming support. He did have a few qualms with it, particularly because the high-performance mode drains the battery fast, and Windows on a handheld has a lot of quirks. But honestly, this is one of the better gaming handhelds out there, besides the Steam Deck. The current Amazon deal brings the price down to a more reasonable range, too.
ECOFLOW DELTA Pro 3 portable power station — $3,199, was $3,699
There are a wide variety of power stations out there, some big, some small. However, if you want a reliable option that gives you enough power to get through virtually any outage or storm the ECOFLOW DELTA Pro 3 is your best bet. The Digital Trends team did review this one, and Simon Sage gave it high praise. In his words, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 “packs beefy power in a shockingly stylish package.” He also said even though it’s bulky, it’s still relatively portable. It has a massive capacity, slick exterior design, useful mobile app and powers just about anything from small appliances to electronics. Don’t miss this one folks.
What is Amazon Prime Big Deal Days?
Similar to Prime Day, but not Prime Day, Amazon’s Big Deal Days is an exclusive and seasonal event just before the holidays. It’s your chance to shop for anything you might have missed out on earlier in the year or to help prepare for the holiday season. It’s also a great time to snag a deal on something you’ve been waiting to buy, or something you’ve planned to grab but never did.
During last year’s event, it lasted for two days, just like this year. The deals were steep and extravagant, with rotating deals available throughout those two days. It was honestly one of the best times to shop last year, even with Black Friday and Cyber Monday hot on its heels in November.
Do I need to be an Amazon Prime member to participate?
Not for all the discounts, but the best ones will be exclusive to Amazon Prime Members. You’ll definitely want to sign up ahead of October if you’re not already an active member. The good news is you can utilize a free trial, but only if you’re a new customer. As long as you , you’ll get 30 days free of Prime access, which includes the Prime Big Deal Days event.
