The best non-Amazon sales to shop on Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day lands on October 13 and 14, but it’s not the only sale on the block this week. Dozens of retailers are offering steep discounts of their own to compete with Amazon’s big event this year, effectively turning mid-October into the new start of the holiday shopping season.

With everything from big box stores like Walmart and Target to smaller retailers like Allswell slashing prices this week, it’s an excellent time to scoop up comfy clothes for fall, fresh furniture for every room in the house, kitchen gadgets, new tech and more.

To help you get started, take a look at our round up of the biggest Prime Day deals not happening on Amazon, below.
