There's nothing like witnessing an iconic comeback, from Michael Jordan's triumphant return to basketball in 1995 to Pamela Anderson's recent rise to celebrated-actress status. But the kind of comeback that makes a shopping editor giddy with excitement? That would be the resurgence of everyone's favorite annual deals extravaganza. I'm talking about Amazon Prime Day, of course, and it's officially a go. (Insert confetti emoji here.) The online retail giant announced that its highly anticipated savings event, Amazon Prime Day 2025, will be twice as long this year, kicking off on Tuesday, July 8 and wrapping up Friday, July 11. That's 96 hours of deals, and according to Amazon, this splashy sale will be chock-full of "deep discounts across more than 35 categories including electronics, kitchen, beauty and apparel." In short, there's a little — or a lot of — something for everyone.
Now, if this will be your first Prime Day rodeo, here are some basics to keep in mind: The majority of the best Prime Day deals are, as the name implies, exclusively for Prime members. That means you'll need an Amazon Prime membership to take advantage of the steepest markdowns and score the lowest prices. Signing up is easy, and you can even opt for a free 30-day trial before committing to a plan. After that, you'll be charged $14.99 per month, which grants you access to dedicated deals, fast and free shipping, Prime streaming content and more.
As mentioned, our trusty team of shopping experts will be providing more updates as it gets closer, and in the meantime? If the prospect of scoring fabulous prices on home essentials, tech gear and more excites you, you don't have to wait until next month. We've spied some stellar on-sale gems at Amazon already — after all, the early bird gets the worm...
The best early Prime Day deals
Apple products are so sought after that they don't really need to go on sale, and when they do, it's often because they're older models. This is the latest version of this iPad, which makes the markdown all the more impressive. According to Yahoo Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, who specializes in all things tech, "It's an ultra-light, thin tablet that's powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag without a second thought. With a large 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you're swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before feel like an old tube TV.
"If you've got a habit of toggling between a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages at once, you're in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you're into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame."
Don't want your new vac to suck a ton of cash from your wallet? This sleek stick's a rare $74 (it's only dipped lower than this once). It boasts strong suction for zapping up everything from dust to pet hair, and provides up to 40 minutes of run time per charge. Plus, its LED lights help you see those darker spaces, and its cyclonic filtration system traps airborne particles as well.

Those floppy headrests you're sleeping on aren't doing your neck any favors, but you can snag this plush, supportive pair for nearly 80% off. They were designed to be comfy whether you're a stomach, back or side sleeper, and the moisture-wicking material helps prevent things from getting too stuffy on summer nights. Be sure to apply the on-page code for the full discount (a record low).

This is the very hand vac I use at home, and let me tell you — it's so much more powerful than its lightweight feel would imply. Is it bulkier than some of the other hand vacuums out there? Yes, but that's to be expected, given its industrial-strength performance. That said, it's portable enough to bring from room to room without it feeling like a workout, and that's all I can ask for. Well, that and an incredible price — and this one is a record low. Bonus: You don't have to purchase the battery and charger separately.

It's shaping up to be a scorching summer in many parts of the country, and if you're in the market for a chill new appliance, thousands of shoppers swear by this model. (It was purchased more than 20,000 times this month.) With 90° oscillation, it'll cool down much of the room, and since it has four modes and five speed settings, you'll be able to customize your comfort. It's only ever dipped lower than its current price by $4...
In case you're not familiar with the "rich mom" trend that's currently sweeping the style world, here's how I'd sum it up: dressing like one has money without being flashy about it. That means a wardrobe filled with simple yet chic staples, like this crisp striped number that looks put together in the easiest, breeziest way. Layer it over a tank on cooler summer nights or tuck it into some trousers for the office. The blue and white version is particularly timeless, and a steal at 55% off (an all-time low).

Lying out on the deck or by the pool is about to get even more heavenly, thanks to these ergonomic chaises that'll make you feel like you're floating. The backs and footrests can be adjusted to your desired angle, and each chair includes a built-in tray with two cupholders. This $22 discount brings them to their best price in months.
These days, many people are swapping their plastic cutting boards for ones that don't pose the risk of exposing food to potentially harmful substances. If you're looking to do the same, bamboo is an excellent alternative, and this set includes not one, not two, but three sturdy boards and a nifty holder. Because you're getting a variety of sizes, you'll be able to designate one board for meats, one for produce and another for smaller mincing tasks. Oh, and this trio rarely dips lower than its current price.

Why keep tripping over shampoo bottles when these handy shower shelves exist? This popular set claims to hold up to 40 pounds (that's a lot of gel, conditioner and body wash) and comes with five storage racks in different sizes for all your bathtime essentials. All you need to do is apply the included adhesive to stick 'em on the wall. This deal drops the price by 50%, so grab a set for every bathroom.
Never fight with your family members over power outlets again. This electrifying gadget boasts five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their devices at once. Oh, and it's so much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor (and there's no way you'll trip over it).
No, it's not a massive discount, but this top-seller is within a buck of its all-time low (and it's retailed for as much as $20 in the past).
Your morning hair routine is about to get a lot easier, thanks to this multitasking tool. It dries and styles all at the same time, meaning you won't have to juggle a brush in one hand and a blow dryer in the other; use it to give yourself a sleek, smooth blowout or wavy curls. At just $40 (70% off), it's far more affordable than the Dyson Airwrap.
You'll never go wrong with the classic look of Hanes, and Yahoo readers and Amazon shoppers alike can't get enough of these supremely comfortable shorts. They're made of a soft cotton-blend material, have an adjustable drawstring waist and, very conveniently, pockets. Reviewers of all ages have been singing their praises, and they've rarely dipped lower than this all year.
When it's too hot to turn on the oven, it's this compact countertop cooker to the rescue. With one-touch settings for fish, chicken, meat and fries, it'll have a meal on the table in minutes, and with little to no oil. Plus, it's less than a foot wide, so it won't take up much space. This over-40% markdown is the best I've seen, and there's also a model with a viewing window on sale for just $5 more.
Save $50 | Lowest price ever
