Amazon Prime Day 2020 is here, bringing with it 48 hours of deals and flash sales.
This year, Prime Day runs from Tuesday, Oct. 13 to Wednesday, Oct. 14, and there are more deals than ever to dig through — more a million, in fact. That could lead to a lot of time spent finding out what exactly is a good deal, and what’s worth skipping and waiting to buy on Black Friday instead.
There are also more alternative Prime Day sales going on to compete with the self-made “shopping holiday” for those who don’t want to spend their cash at Amazon. Instead, you might even browse some of the Black-owned businesses on Amazon to support this Prime Day.
From deals at The Home Depot that are better than Amazon’s to deals at Target for the Amazon-averse, it’s a shopper’s market for those who want to make their wallet go further this Prime Day.
With all of these sales going on, now is the perfect time to upgrade your TV, splurge on some fancy bedding or finally buy that espresso machine for a deal if you’ve had your eye on.
To help you find the best deals this Prime Day, our HuffPost Finds shopping editors have been hard at work curating some of the best deals across the internet from Walmart, Target, Amazon and more.
Take a look below, and keep checking back throughout Prime Day because we’ll keep updating this guide:
Before Prime Day is officially over, we wanted to find the absolute best deals that are still live. From TVs that can let you stream away to cookware sets that’ll make mealtimes easier on you, you can check down below for Prime Day 2020 deals that are in stock.
If you’re not into Amazon, that’s okay, too: We also found a few of the best alternative Prime Day sales from small businesses, including from Brooklinen and Casper.
Our shopping editors know a good deal when they see one. They’ve been clicking and scrolling away for weeks ahead of Prime Day, on the hunt to weed out the best deals from the unremarkable ones. From a water flosser to an office chair that’s not ugly, here’s what our editors are buying for themselves from all of the Prime Day deals happening now.

This Prime Day, you can shop Amazon and still support small businesses. Amazon is offering up to 20% off select products from its “Amazon Handmade” section, which is a space for small businesses to sell their own goods. (Think Amazon’s version of Etsy.) Amazon said in an announcement that this would be its “biggest small business promotion ever.” Check out our guide to our favorite small businesses to shop during the event.
You don’t need to get all brand new furniture to refresh your space, either. Sometimes a fresh start is in the details, whether that’s adding a new throw blanket on your couch or organizing your things properly to create more open space. Check out our guide to Prime Day home deals under $100.
There are plenty of kitchen deals that you don’t want to miss out on from big-name brands like Calphalon, KitchenAid, Keurig and Instant Pot, just to name a few.

Browse all of our Prime Day kitchen deals here.
Target is once again offering Target Deal Days on Oct. 13 and 14 —the same two days as Prime Day.
