Amazon Devices
Kindle, Firestick, Echo; All of these Amazon-branded devices will be on a steep discount for Prime Day. The prices on these will probably not be beaten, or even matched, until Prime Day 2018. Be sure you scoop them up really quick. Last year, I snatched a FireStick for $20. This year, I might even fetch myself an extra, too.

Toys & Video Games
Stock up on those birthday and Christmas gifts! According to Tom’s Guide, top brand name toys were concluded the day with giant savings “For toys, in 2016, we saw up to 50 percent off Nerf, Barbie and Fisher-Price toys.” As far as video games go, be sure to watch for Amazon gift card freebies on bundles for games like Xbox and PlayStation.

Tech Accessories
According to Amazon, on Prime Day in 2016, there were over 200,000 pairs of headphones sold. That number doesn’t include any other gadgets, isn’t that crazy? Amazon is also known for trying to sell off all of their virtual stock on this day, which means HUGE deals on some popular products; this includes cell phone and tablet cases, headphones, chargers, accompanying subscriptions, and more.

Your best option is to completely delve into Amazon Prime Day deals, just get it all. No, don’t. I’m really just kidding. Just like with Black Friday, you’ll want to shop around to be sure that you’re getting the best deals. There are some duds on Prime Day too.
