I’m here to let you in on a secret: You don’t have to drop $15 a month on an Amazon Prime membership to take advantage of some stellar deals during Amazon Prime Day. Sure, you won’t have access to the Prime Day–specific deals, but there are still plenty of worthy deals on Strategist-approved products that I’ve handpicked after scouring our site and cross-referencing Amazon. And if you’re a Prime member looking for actual Prime Day bargains, our deals editor, Sam Daly, has crafted a master list of more than 200 deals worth shopping in our big list of Prime Day deals.
Prime Day ends tonight, so I’ll be updating this article through the end of the day with new prices and standout deals. Just note: If you want to search for more non-Prime-member-specific deals, be sure that the product doesn’t have a “Prime Day Deal” banner next to it. (And, if you’re having FOMO about the deals on the other side of the fence, you can always sign up for a Prime 30-day trial.)
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
