October Prime Day: 100+ best early deals that'll save you up to 80% on Apple, Ninja and more
Also in the mix: Tempur-Pedic, Oral-B, Shark, Roomba and Sperry.
Prime Day is back! (Well, it's officially called "Prime Big Deal Days", but since that's a mouthful, let's pretend it's not).
Yep, it kicks off next week — Oct. 10 and 11 — and a motherlode of early Prime Day deals on tech, home and travel have already started to surface. How to navigate the deals? That's where we come in. We look at price histories, compare sales across retailers and pore over verified reviews to make sure the items we've chosen are worth your hard-earned cash. Take this $100 stick vac: At 80% off, it's the lowest price it's been in a month. And at $18 (a sweet 40% off), the Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite is close to its record low. These deals are the, well, real deals. Be sure to check them out in between visits to the pumpkin patch this weekend — happy saving!
Best early Prime Day deals of 70% off or more
Thinking about swapping your bulky upright vacuum for a sleek stick model, but don't want to shell out hundreds for a Dyson? This Fykee Cordless Vacuum is just the ticket, and it's priced just right ... by which we mean it's more than 80% off with the added on-page coupon. Weighing less than 8 pounds, it's super portable, and its powerful motor (equipped with two suction modes) allows you to tackle messes big and small. The rotating floor brush is equipped with LED lights to ensure you don't miss a spot, and for higher areas, it conveniently transforms into a handheld. You get up to an estimated 35 minutes of runtime per charge. We haven't seen it priced lower than it currently is since, well, ever, so it's worth grabbing while it's $500 off!
"This vacuum is an amazing product," raved one happy cleaner. "It even comes with a hang-on-the-wall holder for the vacuum and all the attachments! The sound was surprisingly quiet, and it was lightweight as well. I like how all the attachments are self-explanatory in how they connect to the vacuum. ... I look forward to using this for all the messes that my kids make throughout the day."

You don't need to be a tech whiz to use an Amazon Fire TV Stick; in fact, it was designed to make navigating your TV a whole lot more streamlined! With just one device, you'll have access to millions of streamers and live TV programs right at your fingertips, as well as more than 300,000 free movies and shows via apps like Amazon Freevee and Tubi. No more having to switch to a different remote to turn up the volume on your sound bar, either — you can do it all from this one gizmo, and it's even equipped with Alexa voice control capability. Sales events like Prime Day offer the best opportunities to snag Amazon devices for less, and while it's a few dollars more than it was during July's sale, 50% off is still an excellent deal for something you'll use as much as this.
"Works great! I have a couple [of] older TVs without streaming options," explained a happy user. "[I] purchased Amazon Fire Sticks so we could use other services and download. Very easy to install and use! I'm not super tech-savvy and had it up and running perfectly within five minutes. Very happy with our Fire Sticks!"

Best early Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds
Finally ready to trade your fraying wired earbuds for a sleek pair of Apple AirPods? These second-gen top sellers have hundreds of thousands of perfect ratings for a reason — well, multiple reasons: clear, rich sound quality, 24-hour battery life and the fact that you won't find yourself tangled up in cords if you accidentally fall asleep with them in. Apple is one of those brands that doesn't really need to have sales, since their products are so in-demand. That said, we'll take $30 off when we can! We usually only see these priced lower during major sales events, and not by very much more than they are now.
"I've had a real problem with finding comfortable earbuds and for years have stuck to the one [pair of] corded earbuds that were comfortable and didn't fall out," wrote one Apple convert. "I thought it was finally time to try these as I transitioned to only having a cell phone. I was surprised at how comfortable they are. The sound quality is good, and the charge lasts a long time. I'm a believer!"

You could have the comfiest mattress, sheets and comforter in the world — but if you're still using a stuffy old pillow, well, good luck getting a good night's rest. If it's time for a replacement, this set of two Cozsinoor Cooling Queen-Size Bed Pillows is designed to banish night sweats, thanks to its breathable, moisture-wicking cover. Soft, yet supportive for all sleeping positions, they're filled with down alternative fluff to give your head a plush pad to snooze on. These popular pillows are rarely marked down unless a big sales event is happening, and given how expensive quality pillows can be (upward of $100 a pop!), the fact that they're under $30 for a pair is an incredible deal.
"From the moment I laid my head on it, I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud," a rested reviewer shared. "The plushness and support are just perfect, and I wake up feeling refreshed and free from any neck pain. The quality of the materials used is evident, and it's held up wonderfully. I highly recommend this pillow to anyone in search of a restful night's sleep. It's a true 5-star product!"

Best early Prime Day deals on tablets and tech
If you've been curious to see what all the hype is around iPads, now's your chance! This 9th Generation Apple iPad has 64GB of memory storage capacity, along with a crisp Retina display, front and back cameras and Touch ID to ensure your information stays secure. Use it for everything from checking your email to browsing the web, sharing photos and even sketching. (You'll want an Apple Pencil for that last one.) As mentioned earlier, Apple products will sell whether they're on sale or not, so the fact that this tablet is currently $60 off is pretty exciting! We've only seen it dip lower during July Prime Day, 'nuff said.
"I got this for my 93-year-old mom," shared a generous gift-giver. "She's not very tech-savvy, but she loves her iPad. It has become her gateway to the world. She relies on FaceTime calls, as she is near-deaf, and being able to see someone's face really helps her understand them better. She uses it to watch her favorite shows and listen to her fave music. And she loves to play games on it. She is finding the Siri functions very helpful too."

Best $25-and-under early Prime Day deals
Turn your home into an autumnal haven, thanks to the otherworldly aroma of this bestselling Yankee Candle in the scent Kitchen Spice. Its warming notes of sweet orange, clove, ginger and cinnamon will make you want to curl up on the couch with a good book and a hot beverage, and the decorative glass jar will look lovely on your coffee table or kitchen counter. With up to 150 hours of burn time, you're certainly getting your money's worth — and on that note, this popular candle rarely dips below its current price (it's only happened twice this year), and for such a respected brand, $17 is a total bargain.
"This Yankee Candle smells amazing!" gushed a satisfied shopper. "It smells like a variety of warm spices and it has a hint of sweetness to it. It's not your typical fall scent, so it can be used all year long, but it still puts me in the holiday spirit. I noticed it filled my entire bedroom with fragrance within only 20 minutes ... It's melting to the edges and smells lovely."

Best early Prime Day vacuum deals
This lightweight, 6-in-1 Inse stick vac clocks in at just 3.2 pounds, but what it lacks in heft, it makes up for in power. Its 180W motor effortlessly sucks up everything from dust to pet hair, and it even has a 5-stage filtration system to trap up to 99.99% of particles floating around your home. Cleaner floors, cleaner air! Plus, you'll get up to 45 minutes of runtime per charge, and it also transforms into a handheld vac for using on stairs and furniture or even your car. You'll get an array of attachments for tackling most any cleaning task, and the fact that it's cordless is the cherry on the sundae. It's hard to top a nearly 80% discount, but this vac is indeed an astounding $380 off — and we've yet to see it priced for less.
"This product is absolutely amazing and it makes vacuuming the home fun," wrote a cleaning professional. "A lot of people [are] comparing this to the Dyson Cyclone, and let me just tell you that this beats the Dyson by every measure. This vacuum is top-quality and keeps money in your pocket. ... I have a cleaning company, and let me just tell you I’ve already ordered two and I plan on ordering more."

Best early Prime Day kitchen deals
Not only is this Cuisinart 12-Piece Knife Set going to give your kitchen a lovely pop of color, it's also going to make slicing and dicing a lot less taxing. Equipped with premium stainless steel blades, they're sharp, for sure, but also have a ceramic coating to keep food from sticking to them. Plus, their individual hues allow you to color-code, should you want one knife reserved for meat, one for veggies, etc. Oh, and did we mention they come with a lifetime warranty? They come with a lifetime warranty! This set rarely goes on sale for less than it is now (only once so far this year, by our count!), and it's hard to argue with paying under $5 per knife!
"This knife set made me a pro in the kitchen," wrote a happy home cook. "They cut like butter. They wash like glass. ... I actually purchased these knives for my husband and my son. My husband is the cook in the house, and my son is learning. I wanted them to have good stuff to use and no more of that cheap junk that you have to saw to cut meat. These knives cut in one little slice. Now I'm in the kitchen cutting up stuff, probably for no good reason."

In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin never crossed your mind, take it from more than 36,000 Amazon shoppers — it's effective! Cosrx's Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence has amassed a cult-like following thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects. Snail mucin not only helps boost collagen and elastin for a firmer look and feel, it can also gently exfoliate for a smoother texture while also soothing the skin. Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots after using. This fan fave rarely goes on sale for less than $15, and when it does, it's usually during a big sales event like Prime Day. We suggest stocking up while it's over 40% off!
"At 60 years old, I have tried a lot of products for skin care," shared one Cosrx convert. "I have not been more impressed with any product ... it has a light scent, you don't need to use a lot. My bottle is half gone after a few months. It has completely erased some old scars from some facial surgery. My skin is much more toned and wrinkles are minimized!"
