Prime Day deals that rival Black Friday: 40+ best sales at Amazon, Walmart and more
If you haven't been shopping in the last 24 hours, you've been missing out. But not to worry — the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale is going strong. The mega-site's shopping extravaganza began in the wee hours of Tuesday, October 11, and will run though Wednesday, October 12, at 12am PT. Of course, most other major retailers and brands — we're talking Target, Sephora, Best Buy, Walmart, Nintendo, and more — have launched competing sales that are on par with the savings you'd see on Black Friday. We asked a slew of retail experts for their advice. As expected, the deals are especially good this year as retailers offload overstock ordered earlier in the pandemic when consumer spending was high. So now's the time to get a jump on your holiday shopping — and perhaps score a few things for yourself in the process.

Amazon device deals: The best prices all year
As savvy shoppers know, Amazon's own line of tech devices are always among Prime Day's brightest stars. "Think toys, personal tech and Amazon-owned devices, plus subscription additions like Amazon Music, a free Grubhub+ membership and Prime Video," Kristin McGrath, shopping expert with RetailMeNot, told Yahoo Life. "The retailer will have discounts [on] clothing, home, electronics, kitchen and more, but we expect to see even more deals around hot holiday toys and trending tech gift items from top brands."
