There is plenty of time to go to out up your Christmas tree, but Amazon are already enticing customers to do their holiday shopping much earlier than Thanksgiving.
After Amazon announced its 48-hour Prime Day event held in July this year broke its own record for sales, the online retailer is holding another sale for those who want to avoid the Black Friday and Christmas rush.

October Prime Day sale dates: When is the Amazon event and how long does it last?
Amazon will hold its next Prime Day Big Deals event, which only lasts for two days, from Oct. 8 through Oct. 9. According to the retailer, Prime members took advantage of millions of deals across more than 35 categories in their July event, with shoppers buying more products than any other Prime Day sales in the past.
Judging from the success of the most recent Prime Day, you can expect the online store to offer even more discounts on items on your holiday shopping list. The smart move would be to get into the action early because many items that go on sale have limited stock. If you want to make sure that the products on your wish-list are ticked off, start hunting early when Prime Day Big Deals kicks off.
You many not even have to wait for October to buy those coveted items: there are already some products with slashed prices available on Amazon. So if you are pining for some new Apple AirPods, a Roomba, an air fryer, or a new TV, check out the online store as some of these are already on offer with discounts starting at 20% off.

Many of the deals are available to all shoppers, but some of the biggest ones can only be accessed by Amazon Prime members.
