    Similar to last Prime Day, I'm setting up a central thread to share any notable deals over the next two days. It sounds like there may be decent deals on fitness equipment and some sporting gear this year. I'll try to quickly post any good deals I find during the day tomorrow.

    Right now, a few "Early Prime Day Deals" are available. My feed is seemingly catered to things I've bought or have similar versions of. Notable items are:

    1) Dyson V11 (30% off)
    2) Kindle (34% off)
    3) Levoit Air Purifier (20% off) - I may actually buy this one for the baby's room.
    4) Nespresso Coffee Maker (35% off) - I got this on a previous Prime Day deal.
    5) Sonicare Toothbrush (44% off + there is a $20 coupon)
    6) Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus with motion-activated 1080p HD video (40% off)

    I'll monitor tomorrow during the day and share anything notable. If anyone sees deals on coffee, grilling, or bourbon-related products, definitely post and tag me, LOL.

    Cheers y'all!

    Updating with things I have been considering buying:

    1) Eufy Wireless Outdoor Cameras + Base: https://amzn.to/4eX2AAC
    2) EcoFlow battery + solar panels: https://amzn.to/3XWaOlU
    If anyone has used these, please chime in. My use case would be to run a fridge/freezer during rare power outages. I also have a small 2000w generator, but this would work without needing gas, so that's a plus...
    3) 16 Pack of LiquidIV (https://amzn.to/4eS2iuU)
    4) Calloway Range Finder that is allegedly accurate up to 1000 yards (https://amzn.to/3U00I26)
    5) Deet Spray (https://amzn.to/3zDL1H6) - this is "on sale" but the price is really what it normally is according to my price tracker. Silly Amazon trying to trick us. That being said, this shit is super useful when hiking as ticks hate it.
    6) Extension Cord (https://amzn.to/3ZWbr19) - this is 15% ish off, and may be worth throwing in the garage.

    I did end up buying this Wyze Cam (https://amzn.to/4dBbG53) to throw in my garage since my wife likes to routinely leave it open.

    Have y'all found any worthwhile deals?

    @AustinBR I have been researching the “Solar Generator” battery backups. Ecoflow has some good deals going on, but I have been reading a lot of horror stories with their customer service. Search ecoflow in Reddit and see for yourself. I’m sure it’s only applicable if you happen to get a bad unit, but holy moly there are a lot of pissed off customers.
    I’m thinking about ordering a EB3A from Bluetti.
    There are also complaints about their CS as well, but not nearly as many.
    I’m sure all these companies have the same CS issue, as they are all in China.
    I’m just looking for a small unit to take camping. I was set to order a Oupes Exodus, as they have unbelievably good deals going on, but luckily I saw on a review that it does not charge from a 12V source(I.e. cigarette lighter) so I am back to Bluetti.

    I keep going back and forth on whether I want a "solar generator" or not. I've got one of the 2000w Honda little red generators that works like a champ. It just (obviously) requires gasoline, which I never keep on hand considering I don't have anything besides my vehicle which takes gas. All of my lawn equipment is EGO branded.

    A large battery with some solar panels would at least run my fridge and deep freezer for a few hours at a time, or perpetually in full sun. But, we've lost power for maybe five collective minutes since I've owned my house and I feel like dropping $1000 bucks on what is basically a big battery is just a waste when it could go to fun things...like bullets or optics LOL.

    I looked at some "Prime deals" this morning, and seems to me, the prices are around what they were last week, and their "discount" is off suggested retail price...
    Pretty disappointed in their BS...
    I'm with you and am not thrilled with how they're marketing things. That being said, I have the "Keepa" extension and have been looking at historical prices and some things are actually on sale, but not most.

    A few good gas cans sure seems cheaper…

    I have a few of those, they are lifesavers!!
    Speaking of, I just ordered this tire inflator (https://amzn.to/4dFhnyU) to keep in the car on long roadtrips.

    I also ordered a hitch-mounted carrier (https://amzn.to/4eCc5FQ) that is one of those items on "sale" where it's the same price it was a few weeks ago - look, they say it's X dollars off of the normal price of "$299" though it was literally only $299 for ONE day a few days ago.....

    Interesting data- graph shows it hit $300 for a day at end of Sept. so sale could say 33% off @ $200!
