Yes, I'm holiday shopping in September — these early Prime Day deals are too good to wait

By now, you've probably heard that Prime Big Deal Days is slated to take place on October 7 and 8. And while it may seem a little premature to start thinking about holiday shopping, I'm using Amazon's event as the perfect excuse to check everyone off my list early.
Since the retailer's Holiday Shop is officially live, I must not be the only one gearing up for the season of giving. In fact, Amazon has even put together a list of the top 100+ gifts — and I'm pleased to say that it's filled to the brim with deals on items from some of our favorite brands.
Although Amazon's October event is still weeks away, now is a time as good as any to start your early holiday shopping. To make things simpler, I've rounded up some of my favorite gifts, which are all sporting a sweet discount. Keep scrolling to check them out.

This satin pillowcase is an affordable upgrade for a better night's sleep. The pillowcase is soft on hair, gentle on sensitive skin and luxurious to the touch. Plus, at 49% off, you can actually buy multiple pillowcases and stay well under any budget.
The Stanley IceFlow Flip Straw 2.0 Water Bottle features AeroLight spun steel, which Stanley says makes it 33% lighter than other stainless steel bottles. That makes it awesome when you already have a lot to carry when you're out and about. It also has a flip straw for easy sipping.
This is one of the best streaming devices available. In our Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max review, we praised its snappy performance, 4K Ultra HD streaming at 60fps with HDR, WiFi 6 support and the included Alexa Voice Remote. Don't pass up the chance to get it at this price.
Mechanical watches are so haute right now, and you don't need to break the bank to own a stylish and reliable one. Exhibit A: This handsome 38mm unisex option with a lovely cream dial from one of America's most historic watch brands. It tells the time, and that's all, making it the perfect weekend companion.
Available in several different colors, this Ninja portable bender allows you to make perfectly smooth drinks anywhere you go. This is an especially great deal for athletes because you can make up to 18 ounces of shakes and smoothies on the go. It features an easy-open sip lid that lets you blend and drink in the same vessel.
Although these may look identical to the popular Ugg Classic Ultra Mini Platform, their price tag says otherwise. These platform boot slippers are warm, fuzzy and perfect for wearing around the house on a chilly fall or winter day. If you're wondering if you can wear them outdoors, the answer is yes! They just so happen to be water and stain resistant, too.
If there's someone on your shopping list who's notorious for losing things, kindly help them out by gifting them with the Apple AirTag. It's an excellent Bluetooth tracker that is extremely easy to set up and does a great job of locating your valuables. This bundle includes four, so you can have one on multiple items.
Amazon has slashed the price of the Beats Studio Buds. You get active noise canceling, sweat resistance and up to eight hours of listening time, or 24 hours when combined with the pocket-sized charging case. Our Beats Studio Buds review called these "a small but feature-stuffed set of wireless earbuds."
The Fire HD 10 packs a bright 10.1-inch Full HD display, solid battery life, and enough speed for streaming, reading, and everyday apps. It’s one of the best-value tablets around and at just $89 ahead of Prime Day, it’s a standout deal that’s hard to ignore.
The new Bose SoundLink (2nd gen) is a compact and powerful Bluetooth speaker with a durable design. This 1.2-pound speaker is water and dust proof and delivered great sound quality in our SoundLink Flex gen 2 review. With 12 hours of battery life and $20 off, you have yourself a great deal.
This instant camera has a special feature: You can record an audio clip with each photo you take; a QR code is printed on the photo, so anyone can scan it with their smartphone and listen to the clip. This deal is also available with a 60- or 120-pack of film. You can also use this camera to print photos taken with your smartphone.
Have a Potterhead in your life? This is the Lego set they need. This impressively detailed, 2660-piece set is the very first Lego model of the Wizarding World's most iconic locale: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and it's absolutely packed with hidden details; my personal favorite is the dinky Chamber of Secrets hidden well below the rocks...
With 7 pre-set programs and customizable options, the Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker will help you whip up gelato, milkshakes, smoothies and more, all with your favorite nuts, candy and fruit to personalize your treat. It also comes with 2 pint pots with lids.
If you want something soft sided, this is a great deal. With a capacity of 6.2 gallons, it's large enough to hold up to 16 cans plus ice. In addition, its durable material is waterproof, reinforced and comes with a handy grab handle for easy portability.
This is one of the best laptops you can buy thanks to its 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display (2560 x 1664), Apple's M4 CPU w/ 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. We gave this laptop our Editor's Choice award because it's easily the best MacBook to date, and one of the best ultraportables period.
