Buckle up, dear readers.

We’re just one day away from Amazon’s biggest sale since July, a two-day deal extravaganza called “Prime Big Deal Days” that will offer thousands of savings across all categories, including huge discounts on top-selling brands like DeWalt, Apple and Crest, LEGO, Dyson and much more.

But before we get there: Have you been wondering what all the fuss is about about Prime Big Deal Days? How different is this sale from the Prime Day event in July? Will the offers be just as good? Better? Worse? (To briefly answer the last three questions: yes, yes and no.)

Here at NYPost, we pride ourselves on our journalistic integrity and strive to provide our readers with everything they need to know. That’s why we’ve put together a quick explainer containing everything you need to know before the start of tomorrow’s Prime Big Deal Days.

What are Prime Big Deal Days?

As mentioned above, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days is a two-day sale that starts on October 8th and lasts until October 9th.

Like July’s massive Prime Day sale, Prime Big Deal Days offer huge savings on everything from AirPods to air fryers, laptops to LEGOs, beauty products to baby clothes, and everything in between.

How are Prime Big Deal Days different from Prime Day?

The only real difference is the month in which these two sales occur. Prime Big Deal Days are closer to Christmas than their predecessor in July and offer a fantastic opportunity to start your Christmas shopping early.

However, just like Prime Day, Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days offers thousands of savings on deals across all categories, including home, apparel, toys, tech, tools, and more. In fact, the sales are so similar that we refer to Prime Big Deal Days as October Prime Day.
