The Best Deals Prior to Amazon’s Prime Early Access Sale

October 10, 2022 Off By Nicolette Accardi

Amazon’s Prime Early Access Sale is right around the corner—the question is, are you ready??? The mega sales event has a chokehold on shoppers every year with its jaw-dropping discounts across the kitchen, home, tech, and apparel categories, resulting in low-as-you’ll-see-them prices on laptops, furniture, and more. We’re talking about speed-demon sneakers, bougie tech, and impeccable massage devices.

This year, we’ll be blessed with deals just a few months after the Amazon’s annual Prime Day with two full days of killer deals—October 11 and 12—but that doesn’t mean you can’t indulge in pre-Prime Early Access Sale deals with an array of A+ products that are already marked to move. We found some absolute bangers to get the party started, because it’s never too early to save some dough. Make a snack, blast some 80s bops, and let's fill up those virtual shopping carts.

Satisfyer Pro 2 Clitoral Stimulator

The Satisfyer Pro 2 is the top-selling vibrator we’ve featured many times over on Rec Room (including in this in-depth review), and for good reason: It’s truly the best bang for your buck when it comes to oral-sex-simulating clitoral-stimulation toys. Get off on non-contact pulsation and suction pressure for discreet solo play with 11 intensities to play around with, and right now, enjoy 24% off.

Bose SoundLink Wireless Headphones II

Bose is the boss when it comes to audio, which is why the brand’s headphones are forever faves for our readers (and everyone who cares how their playlist sounds). Bump to all your favorite tunes with this wireless, over-the-ear Bluetooth-equipped set that offers up to 15 hours of playtime on each charge. The best part? They’re 35% off right now.

RENPHO Eye Massager

RENPHO’s vibrating eye massager is our absolute favorite device for relieving our tired, strained eyes. ​​The heated pads caress your weary sockets and replicate a top-notch face massage by squeezing and kneading away all the stress in your upper face. A massage for 36% off? Not too shabby.

TORRAS Coolify Portable Air

Temperatures may be dropping outside, but that doesn’t mean that A/C still isn’t necessary (especially if you tend to run warm, like we do). Keep cool all day long when your roommate starts blasting the heater with this ultra-handy cooling neck fan, which is currently 25% off. It includes 36 air vents to provide an “immersive cooling experience” for all your sweaty needs—and we love it.

Amazon Fire 4K 50” TV

Popping a squat on the couch and flipping on trashy reality television (Love Island, whisk us away) will always be one of our favorite hobbies when it comes to de-stressing, managing hangovers, or just indulging in some good old-fashioned escapism. A smart TV makes it way easier to flip between your favorite (garbage) programming, which is why Amazon’s Fire 4K TV—sure to be marked down heavily for any Prime-adjacent sales events—is a top choice. Upgrade your binging experience with this TV’s 4K Ultra HD screen that supports HDR 10, HLG, and Dolby Digital Plus sound, all of which which delivers a clearer, more vibrant picture with brighter colors and enhanced sound—and you can grab it for 26% off.

Apple AirPods

Sure, AirPods were easy to avoid at first—looking like an up-charged, easy-to-lose version of the Apple earphones that came pre-packaged with an iPhone (except, you know, without the wiring). That said, once you’ve actually tried a pair for a few days, it’s hard to go back to anything else. You really can’t go wrong with AirPods’ noise-cancellation technology and in-case, fast-charging abilities. For 43% off, grabbing a new (or extra—trust us, we understand if you’ve got a bad habit of dropping an AirPod into nearby sewer grate) pair looks even more inviting. Oh, and don’t sweat it if you’re not fully “bought in” to the Appleverse; if you don’t own an iPhone or MacBook, AirPods can also connect to Android devices and the Google Pixel.

Keurig K-Mini Coffee Maker

If you live alone or are likely to bounce off the walls from too much caffeine, there’s a good chance that one cup of java is all you need to get you started in the morning. This single-serve coffee maker will lock in your daily coffee fix for 50% off. Being less than five inches wide, it’s perfect for solo living in small spaces and can be stored easily under the cabinet. Just pop in a K-cup and brew.

Saucony Core Endorphin Shift 2

Amp up your mile speed and boost your distance in your runs courtesy of these supportive new Saucony kicks for 32% off. It features “Speed Roll” technology, which is designed to propel you forward decreasing the effort in your runs.

The North Face Thermoball Jacket

It’s starting to get so chilly in our neck of the woods that our nips are getting hard. The North Face never disappoints with its puffers and jackets, like this insulating one from the iconic brand’s Thermoball series for 17% off. Sure the snow may not be falling (yet) never too early for some ski garb.

Echo Dot

You can’t go wrong with Amazon’s know-it-all device that has Siri shaking in her boots. Ask Alexa questions, blast retro yacht rock bops, make phone calls, adjust the thermostat, hit the lights, and… you know, order more stuff from Amazon with this gem.

COOLIFE Luggage Set

With upcoming fall travels on the horizon (to say nothing of the impending holiday rush) make your ventures less stressful with a solid set of luggage for 37% off. The three-piece set features spinning wheels for easy gliding, a hard shell to protect your beloved stuff, and a TSA-approved lock. Simply put, it’s hard to top luggage as clean as this.

Soak up the deals now, or hold on to your carts until October 11 and 12—but either way, if you’re looking for deals, don’t miss these ones. Don’t have a Prime membership? It’s not too late to grab one and bask in bodacious bargains and the plan’s signature two-day shipping. And, if you’re Amazon-averse but love saving bucks, we’ve got alternative sales and price-matched deals coming soon. See you in the Prime Early Access Sale chaos, and you can thank us later for the recs.
