Amazon Prime Day 2024: The best deals we could find before the October Big Deal Days sale ends tonight

The exact puzzle that Oprah completed and included in her 2023 list isn't part of the sale, but this festive one is. It's a tad bigger than Oprah's (300 pieces, to be exact), but that just means it'll give you and your loved ones more time to unplug this holiday season. Once you're done, seal it with the puzzle glue and put your handiwork on display for all to see. That means, you get a family-friendly activity and seasonal decor for less than $40 — that sounds like a steal to me! 

In one of her annual faves roundups, Oprah gushed: “I lost count of this vegan-leather crossbody’s compartments. That’s a good thing, because it means it can hold all your essentials. And hooray for all the color options!” Grab it at a discount with our exclusive code.

Oprah said it: This hardworking duo is the ultimate travel companion,"with a smaller pouch perfect for makeup and a larger one for accessories." It's made with quality vegan leather, so she even suggests emptying the larger pouch and "transforming it into a going-out bag." Genius.

Pick between a mix of neutrals and brights, all of which are 20% off for Prime Day. 

Back in 2022, Oprah raved that these quilted nylon slippers with memory foam insoles "makes it feel like you’re walking on a cloud." Amazon shoppers agree, with one pointing out that "because they have a sole on them that can go outside in the rain I find myself wearing them to take the garbage and recycling containers to the curb." 

Choose from six bold colors, including the aptly named Sangria shade shown here. Savings may vary by color, so go with Sangria, Pavement or Peacoat if you want to score the best deal. 

Star Wars superfans will transport themselves to a galaxy far, far away as they build 24 mini versions of classic Lego models, including the X-wing from 1999 and The Crimson Firehawk from earlier this year. You'll get the most bang for your buck with this No. 1 bestseller (especially since it's 20% off right now) — this year's set has 368 pieces, which is nearly 50 more than last year's. 

Rarely do these instant sell-outs drop this much in price this early in the season. 

Over 10,000 Amazon shoppers bought these earbuds in the past month, so it may be an understatement to say they're a customer favorite. Released just this year, they come with more features than you may expect given their tiny package: active-noise cancellation, transparency mode, USB-C charging and a comfy, snug fit. 

Right now for Prime Day, these are matching an all-time low price. 

"The noise cancellation amazed me," one shopper wrote. "I have a window A/C unit to cool my office and when I put these in, I thought it turned off. It took me two or three times of taking them in and out of my ear to realize the headphones were eliminating the sound."

Here's what you need to know about this incredible, wrinkle-softening eye stick, which happens to be a Jennifer Aniston staple:

First, it's honestly rare to find this high-quality, mega-popular line marked down at all (we've only ever seen it drop twice in the past few years, and never has it been this low). Second, it works: In a clinical study (by Tatcha, so take that for what it's worth) 100% of users found their skin felt both softer and better hydrated immediately after use. Last, it's a convenient winter product, targeting dry-skin patches without the mess of creams. It's also ideal for air travel: Since it's technically a solid, you don't have to worry about squeezing it into your jam-packed "liquids" bag.

If you’ve yet to nab yourself a Dyson, Amazon is making it easier than ever (or at least the least expensive ever) with almost $170 off the Dyson V8, bringing the popular model down to $300 and securing it a spot in Amazon’s top 100 deals. 

We tested the model and would recommend it to anyone looking for a lightweight, agile stick vacuum, particularly for tackling small spaces and single-floor jobs. The V8 has 40 straight minutes of run time and boasts Dyson’s signature suite of accessories, including the anti-screw brush roll, among our favorites for navigating couch cushions, car mats and other nooks and crannies.

If you've been debating buying an air fryer, now's your shot — Our Place's Wonder Oven is $40 off, bringing it down to the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon.

One of the best air fryers we've ever tested, this 6-in-1 countertop hero cooked the usual suspects — french fries, breaded chicken tenders, chicken wings and crab rangoons — to (tender, crispy) spec.

Don't let its release date fool you — though this iPad first burst onto the scene in 2021, it's still one of the best tablets on the market, ideal for everything from working to playing. At $200, it's only a dollar more than the lowest price it's ever been!

"The battery life is great for note-taking," one reviewer wrote. "It's super light to carry around and the space gray color I chose is so sleek and classy. It took me about five minutes to set it up."

If you've been waiting for an Apple Watch to go on major sale, this deal may be the answer to your wishes. This 2023-released SE has everything you need, from trackers for your heart rate and steps to crash detection. This is the lowest price this model has ever been. 

"I've had this watch for a couple of months and cannot say enough good things!" said one five-star reviewer. "It makes it easy to track workouts and heart rate. Very easy to set up and use, not to mention the battery lasts me two days! Don't know how I lived without it! Also great for easily seeing my notifications when I'm working from home! Love being able to see work things while moving around my house."

Never lose your luggage, purse — anything, really — again. Just toss one of these smart tags inside the item you want to track, and you'll be alerted of its whereabouts via your phone. The deal on this 4-pack brings each tag down to $20 (they typically retail for about $25 a pop).

Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this top-seller is cordless for even more convenience.

One Yahoo editor gave it a try, writing, "While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn't just 'go off' if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It's also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done."

Thousands of Amazon shoppers love these sturdy containers, which have airtight seals to keep food fresh. They're made of glass — but not just any glass. We're talking about borosilicate glass, which is used on thermal tiles in space shuttles.

Not only does it conveniently allow you to see what's packed inside, but it's oven-safe up to 1,040°F and can go in the microwave without a lid. You can also store these containers in the freezer if you have leftovers you know you won't get to right away.

Meet your new cuddle buddy. Pairs well with hot apple cider, mystery novels and a glowing fire. Yes, the brand famous for its cushy boots is behind this dreamy couch accessory, which checks off all the right boxes: Its double-sided design makes it super plush, while the combination of flannel and faux fur will feel like heaven against your skin (and you'll be able to switch things up depending on your mood).

Apply the on-page coupon, and it'll bring the price down to the lowest we've ever seen.

This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.

It's also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle." It's currently within $2 of the lowest price we've seen all year.

It might not be super frigid just yet, but you'll be glad you snagged this top-rated space heater for 50% off once the temps start dropping!

It's compact and portable enough to move from room to room, and while this isn't the lowest we've seen it on sale for, it's within a few bucks of its best price of 2024.

The fact that this No. 1 bestseller acts as both a blender and food processor is enough to catch our attention — but knowing it's currently down to its best price of the year? That puts it over the top.

With a 72-ounce blending pitcher and 8-cup food processor bowl, you'll be able to whip up frozen margaritas and salsa for a crowd. The 1500-watt motor also makes pulverizing everything from ice to frozen fruit a piece of cake.

These No. 1 bestselling pillows are hits among hundreds of thousands of Amazon shoppers (really) and Yahoo readers can't stop scooping them up, either. They're made of a cooling gel to help keep those uncomfortable night sweats at bay, and the plush Oeko-Tex Standard certified material will feel like heaven while you sleep. 

They're 40% off with the on-page coupon, and rarely do they dip lower than that. Check out our full Beckham Hotel Collection Bed Pillows review for more.

An air fryer is just the ticket when you want a hot meal without turning on the oven. This top-rated model heats up quickly and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. This price is one of the best we've seen it marked down to.

Listen up: Our senior tech writer, Rick Broida, has spent the past two decades testing (and testing, and re-testing) hundreds of earbuds. So, when he's surprised by just how good a $40 pair performs, you need to check them out ASAP. When he tested some of the best earbuds on the market, he named this pair the best budget option, praising their sound quality and noise-canceling abilities. And this wallet-friendly option just got even more budget-friendly, currently down to $20 — the lowest we've ever seen them.
