🥇And here it is! Earning plaudits for being simply the very best deal in Amazon’s October Prime Day 2024, the winner is…

It was never in doubt, really. Amazon’s £50 discount on Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 is the best discount you’ll find this Prime Day. Rarely ever on sale, you’ll want to pick these up before the sale ends at midnight. Great noise-cancelling, superb fit and comfort and next-gen features such as a conversation boost mode and auto-adjusting volume controls, these are my favourite wireless earbuds, and now they’re cheaper than ever.

Who’s going to win gold? Before we get to the best deal of the Prime Day sale, we’ve got our silver medallist. Thanks for the great saving…

Oral-B Pro 3 electric toothbrush: Was £100, now £36.99, Amazon.co.uk

The cheapest I’ve seen it in months, the Oral-B Pro 3 is now a huge 63 per cent off the usual RRP. It usually hovers around the £40 mark, but Amazon’s taken a further £4 off the usual offer price. Tech writer Steve has been reviewing electric toothbrushes for a while, and this one always comes out on top. Featuring different speed settings and a whitening mode, the Oral-B Pro 3 left Steve with that “‘just been to the dentist’ feeling.

🥉And now, here it is – the top 3 deals this Prime Day. In third place, we have…

Shark cordless vacuum cleaner IZ202UKT: Was £279.99, now £179.99, Amazon.co.uk

Shark’s anti-hair wrap cordless vacuum cleaner has received a £100 price cut in the Amazon Prime Day sale. With a 40-minute battery, you can charge it at the hoover or take it off and charge it on its own. Best part? You can also use it as a handheld vacuum cleaner so you can get into those really small places (and your car). Come up and accept your medal, Shark.

In 4th place, and just missing out on a podium spot of my league table of the best Prime Day deals, we have…

If the rigmarole of shaving is tiring you out (in the pursuit of sub-par results) then you’ll be thrilled to know there is another way, and it comes in the form of an at-home IPL – or intense pulsed light – machine. With a £110 discount, the lumea 9000 is Amira’s pick of the best IPL devices for all-over-body use. She said that “it only took a few sessions before I saw lighter and sparser hairs growing back.”

Ooooh, now it’s time for my top 5 deals this Prime Day. Get excited. Music man, build up the tension.

Maybelline lash sensational sky high mascara: Was £12.99, now £5.99, Amazon.co.uk

A beauty writer’s favourite makeup product, you need this one in your bag. One tube of Maybelline lash sensational is sold every seven seconds in the UK. Plus, beauty writer Lucy found the product to live up to its lofty claims, remarking that their “eyelashes instantly looked lengthened and lifted, and most impressively, stayed that way all day”.

Finish quantum infinity shine dishwasher tablets bulk: Was £50, now £17.99, Amazon.co.uk

Sometimes the most boring purchases are the best (and the one you get the most use from). Case in point: dishwasher tablets. Always pricey, Prime Day is your chance to score a saving. Thanks to this Amazon discount, you won’t need to worry about ever running out because there’s a huge 64 per cent saving on this enormous bag of 166 tablets from Finish.

Ninja Foodi AF400UK 9.5l dual zone air fryer: Was £239.99, now £159.99, Amazon.co.uk

Out of all the air fryers Lauren tried in her round-up, she said this one was “the most powerful”, adding that her food ended up “a lot tastier and crispier, compared with when cooking in other air fryer models”. The gadget has six settings – roast, air fry, bake, reheat, crisp and dehydrate – and you can set each of the two drawers to cook different things, at different temperatures, at the same time. It’s been discounted by 33 per cent.

And in 8th place, we have…

Ninja foodi 9-in-1 possible pan: Was £129.99, now £88.99,  Amazon.co.uk

When Lois tried the all-singing, all-dancing pan for herself, she was impressed with its non-stick abilities. It’s designed for high heats, so you can saute, sizzle and sear without any oil, and seems well-equipped to deal with the bumps, scrapes and conditions that come with everyday cooking. With a 32 per cent saving, now’s the time to bang the pan.

Apple iPad, 9th gen, 2021: Was £329, now £269, Amazon.co.uk

With a bright and sharp 10.2in retina display and all-day battery life, this is the iPad to buy and is the cheapest price I’ve seen Amazon sell the tablet. In fact, when my dear dad was looking for a new iPad, it was this one I recommended he get over the iPad 10th-generation, which has only been upgraded minimally over this model.
