Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day is an annual sale that takes place in June or July, but Amazon also hosts an annual fall sale for Prime members. The Prime Big Deal Days sale, informally known as October Prime Day, runs Oct. 6 and 7 in 2026. During these Amazon sales, our shopping experts assess deals by the hour, look at value for the price, and compare prices across retailers. Our goal: To bring you the best possible deals and shopping advice so you can make the smartest decisions for your family and your wallet. Check out the latest Prime Day 2026 news and updates from Mashable shopping reporters and editors.

Lead Shopping Reporter

Bethany Allard is a Los Angeles-based shopping reporter at Mashable covering beauty tech, dating, sex and relationships, and headphones. That basically means she puts her hair through a lot, scrolls through a lot of dating apps, and rotates through a lot of different headphones. In addition to testing out and rounding up the best products, she also covers deals for Mashable, paying an especially obsessive amount of attention to Apple deals and prices. That knowledge comes in handy when she's covering shopping holidays like Prime Day and Black Friday, which she's now done for three years at Mashable.
