Amazon just announced a mega-shopping event to rival Prime Day—and it might be even better than its predecessor. So when is Amazon Prime Day 2 coming? And what kind of stuff is going on sale this time around? To help you make the most of your time and money, we tracked down everything we know about the sale so far—including its exact date and the early deals you need to shop right now. Let’s get into it.

When is Amazon Prime Day 2022?

First, you’re not losing your mind: This year’s Prime Day took place earlier this year in mid-July. But it seems that one legendary sale just wasn’t enough. Today, Amazon announced its first-ever Prime Early Access Sale, which will take place from Tuesday, October 11, through Wednesday, October 12. We suggest you mark your calendars now.

Although this sale isn’t officially the same thing as Prime Day, you can think of it as the sequel. As with the first one, there’ll be hundreds of thousands of markdowns up for grabs across every category, from clothing to beauty to home. (You’ll find the lowest prices of the year on select items, Amazon promises.) This time around, though, the retailer is introducing a new feature called the Top 100 list, which will be a curated selection of on-sale, highly giftable items from the likes of iRobot, KitchenAid, Lego, Samsung, and Hasbro—perfect for getting your holiday shopping done in one fell swoop.

Amazon’s Prime Early Access Sale is moving the start of the holiday shopping season up earlier than ever. (Black Friday who?) If you’re the type who likes to wrap up your gifting early—or who got caught up in shipping delays last year—there’s never been a better time to get started and save some cash at the same time.

Who can shop Amazon Prime Day?

Prime Day 2 is open exclusively to Amazon Prime members, who’ll get access to lightning deals, free two-day shipping, and extra benefits like Prime Video and Amazon Prime Music. And the sale is set to go live in 15 countries, including the United States, Canada, France, and the United Kingdom. If you don’t have a membership, you might get lucky with coupons or a few unofficial Prime Day deals from select sellers, but you’ll be missing out on all the extra perks of membership. If you’re still on the fence, can also score a free 30-day trial below.

What are the best Amazon Prime Day deals?

We thought you’d never ask! Amazon has confirmed that brands like Peloton and New Balance will be marked down, and Alexa-enabled devices and Fire TVs will be marked down as much as 80%. Although the vast majority of the upcoming sales are still under wraps, you can already score a ton of early Prime Day deals on everything from weighted blankets to cowboy boots.

And those are just the best early deals—if previous events are any indication, we’re in for a landslide of steals on everything from jeans to iPads, Instant Pots to air fryers, smart TVs to Bluetooth speakers. (Oh, and don’t forget the sex toys.) While you could go at it alone, there’s no need to. We’re experts on all things Prime Day at Glamour—and we’re here to sift through the deals for you.
