Anywho, the reason why I'm in your inbox right now is to tell you that Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days is happening now. The deal extravaganza is exclusive to Prime members, though unlike July's four-day Prime Day, this one's limited to just two days. You have until Thursday, October 9th, at 3AM ET / 12AM PT to score discounts.
As usual, the Reviews team at The Verge applied their discerning taste to whittle away the layers of cruft, revealing deals on products we think you'll like. Currently, our day 1 roundup of the best October Prime Day deals has over 150 notable discounts, including a deal that brings the second-gen AirPods Pro down to $169 ($80 off), $150 off the very capable Google Pixel 9A, and more. Don't want to shop at Amazon? Walmart's hosting its own deals event, and we've covered the best Walmart Deals discounts you can find at that retailer.
