We’re less than a week away from the start of Prime Big Deal Days 2026. However, in typical Amazon fashion, there are plenty of early Prime Day deals you can shop now. In fact, some of the best Prime Day deals tend to debut ahead of Amazon’s big event.
One of my favorite deals right now is the Amazon Echo Show 11 for $149. I purchased one during Amazon’s spring sale (it was $20 pricier back then) and use mine daily. It’s currently at its lowest price to date.
I’m also a huge fan of the New Balance Ellipse on sale for $109. These have become my new go-to running sneakers and this is the cheapest they’ve ever been. In fact, they’ve been selling at their full $144 price since launch. (Note: Only select colors/sizes are on sale).
Although Prime Big Deal Days is a Prime member only event, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial or college students receive a free 6-month trial. Otherwise, below you’ll find all of my favorite early deals. (For more personal recommendations, check out the Tom’s Guide Saving Squad page).
