The busy months that end in -ber are in full swing and that means, believe it or not, the holiday season is just around the corner. Today is the last day to shop Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale, the massive online retailer’s second annual fall deal event (aka October Prime Day). Shoppers can expect deep discounts of up to 54% off Amazon devices — including bestsellers like the most-recent iteration of the Echo Dot at its lowest price ever of $22.99, the Blink Video Doorbell for under $50, and much more.
The MarketWatch Picks team has put together this roundup of some of the best items on deal to shop. You do need to be a Prime member to get these savings; however new users can take advantage of the 30-day free trial (just remember to unsubscribe if you’re done after your free month, *wink wink*).
To help you navigate this “second Prime Day sale,” we’ve put together 20 of the best deals you can get below. Highlights include Picks reader best sellers like the Apple Airpods Pro (2nd Gen) Wireless Earbuds ($189; original $229) and selections that MarketWatch Picks’ deputy editor Maddy Perkins recommends. These include the SodaStream Art Sparkling Water Maker Bundle ($109.99; original $199.99) we keep at the office and the 2020 MacBook Air ($749.99; original $999.99) that Wirecutter named its top budget laptop. In fact, you’ll find several products we highlight are at their lowest prices ever, according to data from price tracking site CamelCamelCamel, and MarketWatch offers a list of what not to buy here.
