G’morning, all! Deals editor Louis back on the live blog for awhile. Like most people, I like deals that stretch your dollar. I also like to eat out a lot. That’s why this will be the first Prime Day deal I take advantage of today. On October 11 and October 12 only, Prime members who are also Grubhub Plus members can take 20% off their Grubhub food orders of $15 or more via coupon code “PRIME20”. The coupon can only be used once, but I’m all for Amazon covering part of my lunch for today!
If you’re a Prime member, but not a Grubhub Plus member, no sweat. Prime members get a free year of Grubhub Plus (normally priced at $9.99/month). You can get signed up via the link below.

Have you always wanted a Peloton bike? Now’s your chance to grab a bargain — the Original Peloton Bike has been reduced down to $1,225 (opens in new tab) for Prime Day.
Peloton bikes have soared in popularity in recent years; throughout the pandemic, they gave us a chance to continue working out from the comfort of our home. Peloton All-Access Membership (sold separately at $44 per month), gives you access to thousands of classes, and thanks to the clear 22-inch screen, you won’t miss a thing with the Original Peloton Bike. Bear in mind that this model doesn’t come with the rotating screen or Apple Watch integration, but even so, it’s a great deal and includes assembly. You might also want to invest in the Peloton Bike Mat to sit underneath — it’s down from $75 to $56 in the Prime Day sale (opens in new tab).
Original Peloton Bike: $1,445 $1,225 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
Time for a PC upgrade? If so, you’ll definitely want to take advantage of this deal on the PowerColor Red Devil AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT Graphics Card, which is currently $400 off (opens in new tab) in Prime Day sales.
The Radeon RX 6950 XT is currently AMD’s flagship graphics card and offers high-level gaming performance in QHD and 4K resolutions, making it great for enthusiast gamers and PC builders wanting to create the best gaming PC they can. At $400 off in today’s Prime Day sales, you’ll be getting this graphics card at 33% discount and the lowest price we’ve ever seen, so it’s definitely worth scooping up.

Have you been holding out until this Prime Day for a new pair of headphones? If so, this deal might be the one for you, especially if you’re not keen on splashing out the extra cash for a set of AirPods. The JBL Live 300 TWS headphones are now just $54 (opens in new tab) in today’s Prime Day sales. That’s a huge discount of 63% and $95.
While we haven’t reviewed these earbuds for our best wireless headphones list yet, they hold a solid 4 stars on Amazon, with well over 9,000 reviews, which means they’re pretty well regarded by customers. It’s Pete Wolinski here again, and I actually own a similar set of JBL Wave 300 TWS headphones. The sound quality is on a par with my 2nd Gen AirPods, so if you’re after a set of headphones with good sound quality for less than the Apple option, these will be up your street. Crucially, these headphones are also water and sweat resistant, as well as being in-ear, which makes them ideal for gym-goers or runners as they should stay firmly in place when you’re exercising and won’t be damaged by your sweat. At this discount, I’d say these earbuds are an absolute steal.
JBL Live 300 TWS: $149 $54 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
Looking to upgrade your Canon lenses? Make sure you don’t miss this killer deal! The Canon RF 100mm F2.8L Macro USM is currently on sale at $999 (opens in new tab) in today’s Prime Day sales, which represents 29% off its usual price of $1,399 and the lowest price we’ve seen.
I’m Pete Wolinski, the Cameras Editor here at Tom’s Guide. As a photographer, camera writer and someone very familiar with Canon lenses, believe me when I say this is a great deal. A 100mm macro lens is often considered the professional industry standard for all kinds of photography, including food, product, fashion and beauty photography. They’re also great for wildlife macro shots, if bugs are your thing! This particular lens carries on Canon’s tradition of producing legendary 100mm macros, and is extremely highly regarded by the pros and people that use it. It’s also an L-Series lens — these contain Canon’s best optics for the sharpest images. Adding this lens to your kitbag alongside one of the best cameras like the Canon EOS R6 is a sure fire way to give your photos a professional look and feel. And what better time to buy one than when it’s being sold at a huge discount?
The Canon RF 100mm F2.8L Macro USM: $1,399 $999 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If you want one of the best robot vacuums, but don’t want to break the bank, you can now get the Renewed Roborock S7 Robot Vacuum and Mop for just $379 (opens in new tab) this Prime Day.
While this model is renewed, the price won’t get much cheaper for a 2-in-1 vacuum mop. Such hybrid designs admittedly don’t have a brilliant reputation, however we have tested the Roborock S7 and can tell you first hand that it’s the exception. In fact, it’s the best robot vacuum mop we’ve tested. It navigates well, has excellent pickup, and the app is intuitive to use. Plus, it’s easy to switch over to the mop function, which provides good coverage and is ideal for picking up light spills and stains.
Renewed Roborock S7 Robot Vacuum and Mop: $549 $379 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If your home Wi-Fi network could use an upgrade, or if you’re experiencing dead zones in areas of your home, you won’t want to miss this deal. The TP-Link Deco XE75 2-pack just dropped to $239 (opens in new tab) in today’s Prime Day sales. This is the lowest ever price for this product, making this deal well worth snapping up.
TP-Link are renowned for producing high quality networking hardware, including mesh Wi-Fi routers, and this router is no exception. The TP-Link Deco XE75 scored highly in our review thanks to its excellent data throughput and affordable price, and features in both our best mesh routers and best Wi-Fi 6 routers round ups. At 20% off, which is the lowest price we’ve seen, its value for money just went up even higher this Prime Day, so make sure you take advantage while you can.
TP-Link Deco XE75 2-Pack: $299 $239 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If you’ve always wanted to treat yourself to an air fryer, but have never taken the plunge, now’s your chance. The Ninja AF101 Air Fryer just dropped to $84 (opens in new tab) this Prime Day.
Ninja is a name synonymous with air fryers; in fact the brand features in both our lists for the best air fryers and best toaster ovens. These air fryers can produce crisp and tender results in a matter of minutes. There are four separate settings to choose from on the AF101 model, including air fry, roast, reheat and dehydrate, and with dishwasher-safe attachments, it’s simple to clean up after too. Considering the cost of energy is on the rise, air fryers are a budget-friendly alternative to using the oven as well.
Ninja AF101 Air Fryer: $129 $84 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If you want convenience from your coffee maker, but don’t want to sacrifice on flavor, a Nespresso machine might be the way to go. And right now you can get the Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Machine by De’Longhi for just $159 (opens in new tab) — this is almost as cheap as it’s ever been.
Nespresso is renowned for producing a high quality of espresso from a capsule — these machines can actually reach a high enough temperature and pressure to form a crema, which few other capsule machines can achieve. Considering this machine has made our list as one of the best coffee makers, deals don’t get much better than this. It comes with a milk frother, should you be a fan of lattes and cappuccinos, plus 12 flavours of capsule to get you started.
Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Machine by De’Longhi $219 $159 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If you’re after an Apple laptop, then you can get the MacBook Air M1 for up to 20% off from Amazon (opens in new tab) which is as cheap as we’ve ever seen it.
While it doesn’t have the newer design and improved chip of the (also discounted) MacBook Air M2 (opens in new tab), the MacBook Air M1 still offers plenty of oomph with its Apple M1 chipset, and a lengthy battery life to boot. It’s one of the cheapest ways to get into the macOS ecosystem, and it’s well worth it, especially if you already own an iPhone or iPad and can make use of Apple’s ingenious Continuity features.
MacBook Air M1 (8GB/128GB): $999 $799 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
The latest flagship noise-canceling headphones from Sony, the WH-1000XM5, is discounted by $50 (opens in new tab), making this the lowest price yet for this excellent pair of ‘phones.
Sony’s subtle design, available in either black or off-white, hides a bunch of ingenious tech that gives it the best ANC of any wireless headphones we’ve tested, along with improved sound, call quality and controls and connectivity to ensure they remain the gold standard for this style of headphone. Just make sure you’re a Prime member, otherwise this deal’s off-limits to you
Sony WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones: $399 $348 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
One of our favorite smartphones is getting an awesome discount right now. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is going for just $889 (opens in new tab) which is not only low for the best Android phone we’ve ever tested, but is also the lowest it’s ever been.
You get some truly impressive specs with the S22 Ultra. Whether it’s the large 6.8-inch QHD AMOLED display with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, the quad rear cameras including a 108MP main sensor and two telephoto cameras, the zippy 40W charging or the included S Pen stylus, you’re getting some of the best tech on any smartphone available right now. Coupled with Samsung’s promise of four years of software support, this is a deal with lasting value too.

There’s a tasty 20% off of Apple’s latest iPad mini (opens in new tab) at Amazon right now, which is currently the lowest it’s ever been.
Sitting in the top three of our best iPads guide, the 2021 iPad mini brought Apple’s smallest tablet into the modern world with a new home button-less design, USB-C charging and compatibility with the Apple Pencil 2. It’s also got a speedy A15 Bionic chipset, that you can spec with 5G if you don’t mind the extra expense. It’s ideal if you find Apple’s other iPads too large for your liking, but still want great performance and the option to do some stylus-powered doodling.
iPad mini (2021/64GB): $499 $399 @ Amazon
Here’s a very big saving on a very good television: LG 48″ C1 OLED TV is on sale for $1,496 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s 40% off its full retail price of $2,499. Do note that while some Prime Early Access deals are open to all, for this one you will need an Amazon Prime subscription. And if you’re not a member it could be worth signing up for this deal alone because we rank the LG C1 as one of the best OLED TVs you can buy. We highly recommend this television for its fantastic picture quality, HDMI 2.1 connectivity and best-in-class gaming performance (PS5 and Xbox Series X owners take note). It’s definitely not a cheap TV deal, but the LG C1 comfortably justifies its rather sizeable cost.
LG 48″ C1 OLED TV: $2,499 $1,496 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
The Prime Early Access Sale is offering dozens of discounts on Fire TV streaming devices. And we’ve already flagged one of our favorite deals on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, but there’s also the Fire TV Cube on sale for $59 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s a very significant $60 discount on this Amazon branded product.
In our Fire TV Cube review we awarded the device an editor’s choice seal of approval, and praised its speedy performance, excellent 4K HDR picture quality, easy to navigate interface and Alexa cable box controls. If you’re looking for the most powerful Fire TV streaming device, then you’ll want to opt for this second-generation Cube and at 50% off now is the ideal time to buy.
Fire TV Cube: $119 $59 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
No retail sales event is complete without a sizeable mattress discount, and while we typically see the biggest savings direct from the manufacturer, Amazon’s Prime Early Access Sale is offering a tempting deal on a premium sleep surface. The Casper Original Hybrid Mattress (Queen) is on sale for $1,253 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s $442 off compared to its full retail price of $1,695. The Casper Original offers targeted support for proper spinal alignment, and packs an layer of perforated breathable foam to prevent you getting too hot at night. If you’re looking for a better night’s sleep this winter, the Casper Original Mattress is a very sound investment.

Good Morning! Welcome back to the Tom’s Guide Prime Early Access Sale live blog. It’s an early start for the team, so it feels very appropriate to highlight this excellent coffee machine deal. Right now, the Keurig K-Mini Coffee Maker is on sale for $49 at Amazon (opens in new tab), that’s a 50% discount.
At less than 5-inch wide this appliance can fit on even the most cramped countertops, and can brew 6-12oz cups of coffee in just minutes. All you need to do is add fresh water and a Keurig K-Cup pod, and you’ll have a delicious cup of joe ready to go every single morning.

This will be my last post for today, but I promise it’s a good one. Last week, Amazon teased a few deals for October 11. One such deal was “80% off the Amazon Fire TV Omni Series 55-inch 4K Smart TV.” This TV regularly sells for $559, so 80% off that price would mean starting October 11 you’ll be able to get it for around $111. That’s an insanely low price for ANY 55-inch 4K TV. I suspect this deal will be very limited and it’ll sell out fast. But if you’re on a very tight budget and want to try your chances — this is the TV deal to get.
Make sure to bookmark this page and come back first thing Tuesday morning as we bring you the best deals in the Prime Early Access Sale.
Amazon Omni 55″ 4K Fire TV: $559 $111 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
Last week was a busy week for Android fans as Google debuted its new Google Pixel 7 and Google Pixel 7 Pro. If you’re looking for Pixel 7 preorders, Amazon has one of the best unlocked deals you’ll find. Currently, you can get a Pixel 7 with a free $100 Amazon gift card for just $599. Sure, you’re paying regular price for the phone, but you’re getting a free $100 Amazon GC, which you can use to buy anything you want at Amazon. The Pixel 7 packs a 6.3-inch 90Hz OLED display (2400 x 1080) and Tensor G2 chipset. You also get 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It features a 50MP (f/1.85) main camera lens, 12MP (f/2.2) ultrawide lens, and 10.8MP (f/2.2) front lens.
Pixel 7 w/ $100 Amazon Gift Card: $699 $599 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
Last week the AirPods dropped to $79, which was an all-time price low for Apple’s buds. The deal sold out in less than 20 minutes. Well, Amazon is at it again. The AirPods are back on sale for $89, which is $10 higher than last week, but still a fantastic price. (In fact, this was the price we saw last Black Friday). So if you need a solid pair of earbuds, but don’t wanna drop $100+, you can’t go wrong with this deal.
Apple AirPods: $159 $89 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
I love my Luna weighted blanket! This specific blanket sits at the top of our list of the best weighted blankets you can buy. We gave it a good review because it has a comfy, breathable cover and its glass bead filling provides even, relaxing pressure across your entire body. Personally, I find that it helps me fall asleep faster at night and I love using it when watching Netflix on the couch. Various styles/sizes are on sale. Make sure to check out our Luna Weighted Blanket review for our full thoughts and our weighted blanket sales page for more deals.
Luna Weighted Blanket: $79 $69 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
Heaven knows I need a new vacuum cleaner and Amazon is taking $200 off iRobot’s J-series robot vacuums. The J7 Plus sits at the top of our list of the best Roombas you can buy. It features obstacle avoidance technology, which will detect an object and choose to veer around it. It essentially learns from every run, so it recognizes items such as cables and socks. The J7 Plus also comes with a handy clean base, which will store up to 60 days of debris. If you’re wondering, the J7 doesn’t have the cleaning base, which is why it costs less. Otherwise, both models are the same.
Roomba J7: $599 $399 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)

I purchased this Ninja coffee maker a few weeks ago and totally love it. It’s compact and very easy to use, plus I like that it can make up to 12-cups if I ever have friends/guests over. (It has a removable 60-ounce water reservoir). I was a bit hesitant because a few Amazon reviews say the water reservoir leaks, but I’ve been using it daily for a few weeks now and I haven’t had any issues so far. (Knocks on wood). For $79 bucks, it’s also very cheap!
Ninja Coffee Maker (CE251): $99 $79 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
G’afternoon, all! Deals editor Louis taking over the Prime Day live blog for the rest of the afternoon. So there are a few things I’d like to buy during the Prime Early Access Sale and a yoga mat is one of them. (Possibly an exercise ball as well). I injured my lower back and knee earlier this summer (bad bout of runner’s knee), so I’ve been doing a lot of mat-based exercises to build up my core and rehab my knee. That’s why I’m eyeing this sale, which has exercises accessories on sale from $9. The sale includes both mats, exercise balls, and step platforms.
Yoga mats/exercise balls: deals from $9 (opens in new tab)
One of our favorite deals from Prime Day 2022 has returned as the Eero Pro 6 mesh router (two-pack) is back on sale for $259 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s a $140 saving compared to the device’s standard price of $399. It’s also among the lowest ever prices we’ve seen for a two-piece Eero Pro 6 kit.
We rank the Eero Pro 6 as one of the best mesh routers on the market, primarily because of its great range, dynamic tri-band operation and extremely simple setup. In our Eero Pro 6 review, we concluded it was the perfect choice for anyone who wants “Wi-Fi 6 networking without the hassle.” In fact, we even labeled its setup process as “one of the quickest and easiest routines” of any mesh system we’ve reviewed.
Eero Pro 6 mesh router (two-pack): $399 $259 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
The Prime Early Access Sale includes significant savings on a whole load of Blink Smart Home Security Cameras and Bundles with deals from $29 (opens in new tab).

If you’re looking to add to your home security system this winter, then you’ll want to browse the full range of deals below.

If you’re looking for an uber-portable Bluetooth speaker, then here’s a deal for you. The Tribit StormBox Micro is on sale for $39 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s a $20 discount off its full retail price of $59.
I’ve been testing out this speaker over the last couple of month and the Tribit StormBox Micro has quickly become my favorite summer gadget. That’s partially because of its extremely portability, but also because of its size-defying sound (with surprisingly weighty-bass). I also love its IP67 waterproofing, and super useful carrying strap that allows it to be easily fixed to a backpack or bike handlebars. It’s very quickly become the first speaker I grab whenever I’m heading on an outdoor adventure.
Tribit StormBox Micro Bluetooth speaker: $59 $39 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
As usual with an Amazon sales event, the retailer’s own devices are seeing some of the biggest discounts during the Prime Early Access Sale. Case in point, the Fire HD 8-inch Kids Tablet is on sale for $69 (opens in new tab), that’s a 50% saving compared to its full retail price of $139.
This best-selling tablet is an age-appropriate device that allows your little ones to watch their favorite TV shows, read books and play games. Plus, it can survive drops and knocks due to its kid-proof case with built-in stand. The 8-inch FHD display is surprisingly vibrant, and the 13 hour battery life is handy for long journeys and flights.
Fire HD 8″ Kids Tablet: $139 $69 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
The latest MacBook Air model is already on sale as the official start of the Prime Early Access Sale inches closer. For a limited time, the MacBook Air M2 (2022/256GB) is on sale for $1,099 at Amazon (opens in new tab). That’s a $100 discount on this excellent editor-choice machine. In our MacBook Air M2 (2022) review we were extremely impressed with this laptop’s top-notch performance, 14 hours of battery life and super bright display. We also loved the slick and portable design and 1080p webcam.

If you’re after a superb pair of wireless earbuds — that aren’t AirPods — you’ll want to check out the Sony WF-1000XM4. In our Sony WF-1000XM4 review, we awarded these buds 4.5 stars and described them as having “elite sound, noise cancellation and awesome features.” Heads up: they hit $198 this past summer, so they’ve definitely been cheaper before. If you can afford to wait, they will likely hit that price point again on Black Friday. If you need them now, this is their third-lowest price.
Sony: WF-1000XM4: $279 $248 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
One of the best Prime Day deals we’ve seen this morning is actually coming from….Walmart. Amazon’s biggest rival launched its own sale this morning and one of its biggest deals is $50 off the new Apple Watch 8. Naturally, Amazon responded by offering the same deal. In our Apple Watch 8 review, we named the Editor’s Choice Series 8 the best smartwatch you can buy. It’s now at its lowest price to date. (You can follow all of Walmart’s best sales via our Walmart Rollback sale live blog)

The new football season is in full swing, and that means the latest Madden game has arrived. Ahead of the Prime Early Access Sale, Madden NFL 23 is on sale for $44 at Amazon (opens in new tab), that’s a saving of $25 (make sure to check the $5 coupon box for the full discount). This deal is available on both the PS5 and Xbox Series X version of the game.
In our Madden NFL 23 review, we were impressed with the game’s ability to replicate the feeling of a real football broadcast, and we also loved its super speedy load times. The lack of new modes and familiar gameplay compared to previous years were a little disappointing though. However, if you want to play some virtual football there’s no better pick than Madden.
Madden NFL 23 (PS5/Xbox Series X): $69 $44 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
We do like a good bit of smart home tech here at Tom’s Guide and the Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd gen) is a nice combo of smart screen and speaker.
And thanks to the early deals we’re seeing you can now get it for less than half price. That’s a pretty great deal which ever way you look at it.
Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd gen): $84 $34 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)

Fancy a new TV but don’t want to go too big or splash the cash? Then check out the range of TV’s Amazon has on sale with prices starting as little as $89 (opens in new tab).
Bear in mind, the cheap TVs tend to be smaller, 720p models (which are more suitable for a children’s room or guest room). However, the sale also includes larger sets and are among the cheapest TV deals we’ve ever seen from Amazon.
TV sale: deals from $89 @ Amazon (opens in new tab)
If you’re looking for a sizeable TV for not a huge amount of money, then right now Amazon has the ideal deal for you. This 50-inch Amazon Fire 4K TV is on sale for $349 (opens in new tab), that’s a saving of more than 25% compared to its regular retail price of $469.
