Prime Day now closer than ever, this is the time to start checking out all the best deals before they're gone for good.

Many of the deals that Amazon is advertising for its Prime Big Deal Days this month aren't your typical holiday gifts. To be sure, the company describes the sales event as "epic deals ahead of the holiday season" (note the "ahead" here).

Amazon’s Prime (Big Deal) Days is set for October 8-9, 2024 and it is shaping up to be an exciting shopping event for consumers worldwide. While the official event is still a few days away, Amazon has begun rolling out early deals accessible to everyone over the weekend, not just Prime members, giving shoppers a taste of what’s to come.
