Prime Day invite-only deals are making a comeback. Some awesome products are being heavily discounted, but buying them isn't quite as simple as just adding them to your basket.

The invite-only deals format made its debut during July's Prime Day. To get them, you need to sign into your Amazon Prime account and then request an invitation for the deal you're interested in. Amazon will send out invites when the Prime Big Deal Days event starts on October 10. There's no guarantee that everyone who requests an invitation will receive one, but I recommend requesting invites for the items you’re interested in now to get yourself the best chance at scoring them at a discount.

There's an epic 4K TV deal up for grabs via invitation right now — the 50-inch Fire TV Omni is $149 at Amazon. It's the best price I've ever seen for a 50-inch 4K TV, so hurry and request an invitation while you still can.

There are plenty more invite-only deals to choose from, so keep scrolling to see the invite-only Prime Day deals that are worth signing up for. (Also, check out our guide to the best Amazon promo codes this week).
