Get ready, bargain hunters – Amazon's 48-hour October Prime Day is here. Whether you're looking for the latest tech, the best beauty products, or a handy kitchen gadget at a discount, there are thousands of deals available on the platform now.

The Prime Big Deal Days sale (that's what it's officially called) started this morning and runs until 11:59pm tomorrow night, meaning you've got two days to snap up the best bargains.

The retailer has, of course, slashed the prices of its own-brand gadgets — think Fire TV Sticks, Kindle tablets, Echo smart speakers, and even its Ring video doorbells. But everything from TVs and laptops to beauty and home appliances, including vacuum cleaners, heated drying racks and dehumidifiers, as well as Apple tech, home appliances and Oral-B electric toothbrushes, also saw prices fall.

To help you shop smart this Prime Day, the IndyBest team will be live throughout the sale, sniffing out the latest and greatest early bird discounts and sharing top tips. Constantly updated, we are diligently looking for discounts. However, remember that you must be a Prime subscriber if you want to participate.
