In case you haven't heard, Amazon is returning with its second-biggest sale of the year for Prime members in a couple of weeks. Known as Prime Day 2 to some and Amazon Prime Big Deal Days to all, the 48-hour sale (running from Oct. 8 through Oct. 9) is your chance to stock up on beauty, fashion, home and tech must-haves for *way* less. It's also a great time to secure gifts for everyone on your list (perhaps the Apple AirPods Pro and Solawave facial wand bundle?), considering that the holiday season is just around the corner. But if you've never participated in the massive shopping event, don't sweat it. As PureWow's sales and deals editor, it's my job to clue you in on everything there is to know about the two-day sale—and help you (and your wallet) make the most of it.
So, here's what you need to do: Mark your calendars and start building your wish list right now, because I have a strong feeling there will be even bigger scores up for grabs from all the brands you love, including Apple, Dyson and Samsung—and they're sure to go fast once the sale starts. And as if it couldn't get any better, you'll also find a slew of swoon-worthy savings on viral beauty products, editor-tested kitchen appliances and even designer lookalike fashion if you were hoping to upgrade your wardrobe for fall.
If all this has you *so* excited to shop that you can barely wait, good news: There are tons of early deals up for grabs RN, so you can beat the virtual crowd and get a head start on your savings. So, without further ado, here are the 30 best Amazon scores you don't want to miss on sale before the main event (because they might even be better than what's to come).
