- 1. Dyson V8 Plus Cordless Vacuum, Silver/Nickel 36% off — was $469.99, now $299.99. I love Dyson cordless vacuums mainly for their ease of use. They're lightweight, can fit in small, tricky spaces and are effective at cleaning up dust and fur.
- 2. Apple AirPods Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds: 32% off — was $249.00, now $168.99. I find the Apple AirPods Pro earbuds to fit comfortably and offer great sound quality. The best part? You can score the Apple AirPods Pro 2 for the lowest-ever price this Amazon Prime Day.
- 3. Clinique Dramatically Different Daily Moisturizing Lotion 4.2 Fl Oz: 34% off — was $34.00, now $22.61. I use this moisturizer daily and recommend it to anyone looking for a lightweight moisturizer that hydrates effectively. It's Clinique's #1 moisturizer for a reason.
- 4. Ninja Blender Mega Kitchen System: 40% off — was $199.99, now $119.99. I've used cheap blenders before thinking, how much of a difference could there be? A huge difference. While Ninja products will cost more than other brands, their blending capabilities are far superior.
- 5. BLUEAIR Advanced Air Purifier 7470i for Large Room: 25% off — was $599.99, now $449.99. This product made Tom's Guide's best air purifier list, despite its high cost. That's because it provides an impressive performance when it comes to air purification, has plenty of additional features and data and is a quiet operator.
Prime membership
If you’re not yet a member, you still have time to join. A Prime membership costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year, and benefits include same-day, one-day, and two-day delivery options, as well as exclusive Prime member deals, unlimited photo storage with Amazon Photos and more.
And if you don’t want to commit to the membership price, there's a way you can still shop the thousands of deals offered on Prime Big Deal Days. All you have to do is sign up for a 30-day free trial, shop the sale and then cancel before you're charged the standard membership price.
Before you buy, you may want to compare prices between Amazon and Walmart, which is also hosting a deal event running from October 8 to 13 this year. Check out our article on Amazon Prime Day vs Walmart Deals to decide which is better.
