Updated April 16, 2024

The Fourth of July sales are largely over, but if you didn’t get your fill of bargain hunting, Amazon’s annual two-day event, the not-entirely-accurately-named Prime Day, is here to keep you going. Landing on July 11 and 12 this year, you can expect to see the usual deep discounts on hundreds of products. It’s not just Amazon, either—many other companies have competing sales, meaning you can comparison shop for everything from mattresses to clothes to TVs to, well, more mattresses (seriously, there are a lot of mattress sales going on).

While not all the Prime Day deals have been announced, there’s already a whole bunch of stuff on sale in the run-up, so we’ve rounded up some of the best early Prime Day deals for 2023, both on Amazon and elsewhere.

When is Prime Day 2023?

The 48-hour Prime Day event runs from Tuesday, July 11 through Wednesday, July 12 in 2023. (Technically, it begins at 3 a.m. EST on July 11 and ends at 3 a.m. EST on July 13.)

Are Prime Day deals the same on both days?

Since Deals of the Day last for 24 hours (the clue’s in the name!) a lot of the items on offer on Tuesday will no longer be available at that price on Wednesday. There will, though, be a whole bunch of new deals on the second day.

How to prepare for the Prime Day sale

The first thing to do is get yourself a Prime membership, since the sale is only open to Prime members. If you’re not sure you want to commit to that, you can always sign up for the free 30-day trial before Prime Day starts, then cancel later if you’re not feeling it. Serious bargain shoppers may also want to download the Amazon app, which will send you a notification when deals you’re watching are about to go live.

Tips for finding the best Prime Day deals

As mentioned, downloading the app will give you something of a head start on other shoppers, especially for Lightning Deals (short-term discounts that can last as little as a few hours), which will show up in the app before officially being live.

Alexa owners can also get a little assistance from their, uh, little assistant. Add all the things you’ve been pondering purchasing to your Amazon Wish List, then enable “deal recommendations” in the Amazon Shopping section of your notification settings. You’ll get a notification when something you've been wanting goes on sale. (It also works for items in your shopping cart of stuff that you’ve saved for later.)

What retailers offer the best Prime Day alternatives?

There are tons of retailers offering summer sales right now, coincidentally (or not?) landing around the same time as Prime Day. This list alone includes the likes of Coach, Blueland, Aerie, Walmart, Urban Outfitters, Home Depot, and Tempur-Pedic. Any time you’re thinking of splurging on a Prime Day deal, it’s worth checking other retailers to see if they’re offering something better.
