If you’re eager to get a head start on your holiday gift list, there’s no better time. Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is officially here!
Amazon Prime Day is a yearly shopping event exclusively for Amazon Prime members. It typically happens in July, but this year, the retail giant is bringing back the savings for a fall rendition. The sales event offers tons of exclusive discounts on clothing, tech, books and, my favorite category, kitchen gear. We’re seeing markdowns of up to 70% with fast, free shipping. (Psst! It’s not too late to join Amazon Prime if you’re not already a member.)
In 2024, Amazon Prime Big Deal Days falls on Tuesday, October 8 and Wednesday, October 9. The sales will be live for 48 hours only, so don’t hesitate.
To help you sift through the noise, I scoured thousands of deals to find the best sales. Even better? These are deep discounts on products personally tested and reviewed by Taste of Home staff. You’ll find my top picks for cookware, outdoor gadgets, holiday items and cleaning gear. Act fast, though! Amazon Prime deals sell out faster than you can say “add to cart.” Happy shopping!

I have tried many cookware brands. And while I love the ease of ceramic, sometimes I want a pan that’s a little heartier. That’s where HexClad comes in. This hybrid 7-inch frying pan can handle high heat, metal utensils and tough cooking tasks. I’ve been using HexClad pans (and the Dutch oven, and the wok…and the knives) for over a year. I love this pan’s even heating capabilities and truly nonstick surface. Even after dozens of uses, the coating remains intact.
Snag this pan for 39% off and you, too, just might become a HexClad convert. It’s on sale for Prime Day for just $79.

Halloween will be here before you can say “trick or treat.” And these cute bat-shaped scissors are a spooky-sweet addition to your kitchen.

While of course you don’t need to decorate your kitchen for Halloween, this budget-friendly tool pays fun homage to the holiday.
This scissors flys into your kitchen for just $13.56 on Prime Day, saving you 32%.
