Amazon's October Prime Day event, aka Prime Big Deal Days, is here. The two-day shopping blitz runs through the rest of today, October 11th, bringing with it a deluge of deals that are only available to active Prime subscribers. You may not find everything you want during the sale, but the fall shopping event is a great opportunity to stock up on a range of great tech ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Amazon has dropped Prime Day discounts on a variety of its own devices, including Echo speakers and Kindles, as well as 4K TVs, laptops, wireless earbuds, robot vacuums, and plenty of other tech. To help you sort through it all, we're hand-picking only the best deals throughout the event, as well as rounding up competing sales from retailers like Walmart, Target, and Best Buy.
