Prime Big Deal Days

The Top Products We’ve Featured, on Sale for Prime Day

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days” is now live and the 48-hour shopping event has become something of an overwhelming barrage of deals and countdowns all designed to make you click that “buy now” button. But in truth, it's also a great time to stock up on staples, or if you've been holding off on buying that new beard trimmer or air purifier, this is when you can typically score the best price of the year.

We've pulled together a quick list of all the Valet.-approved products that are currently marked down for Prime Day—many of which won't be this cheap again for a while. And remember that the better the deal, the quicker an item might sell out. So pull that trigger before they run out or the sale expires.

Of course, if you don't have an Amazon Prime subscription, now's the time to take advantage of their free month trial. You not only get complimentary one- or two-day shipping, but there are plenty of other perks like a free year of Grubhub+ with $0 delivery fees and access to Twitch gaming and Prime Video, along with Amazon Music and the largest catalog of top podcasts without ads.
