The Verge Guide to Amazon’s October Prime Day event: best deals, tips, and news

For the third time in a row, Amazon is ringing in fall with a second Prime Day event. This year's two-day shopping event – called Prime Big Deal Days – begins on Tuesday, October 8th and runs until Wednesday, October 9th, giving Amazon Prime subscribers the opportunity to complete their pre-Black holiday wish list Friday and Cyber ​​Monday will land later this year.

If the early deals Amazon already has on offer are any indication, we can expect significant discounts on Amazon's own devices, including Fire tablets, Echo speakers, Eero routers, Kindles and more. We also expect Amazon to cut prices on a variety of other electronic devices, from noise-cancelling headphones and laptops to video doorbells and some of our favorite robot vacuum cleaners.

As usual, we're scouring Amazon's landing pages both during and leading up to the event to make it easy for you to keep track of the best Prime Day 2.0 deals. We'll also provide you with a number of helpful tips leading up to the event, including ways to save at competing retailers like Walmart, Best Buy and Target.

So bookmark this page and subscribe to the new site Verge Offers Newsletter and put a little pocket money aside. You'll need it.
