Editor’s note: Prime Day has officially started, so we’re no longer updating this early deals post. You can find all the best Prime Day deals (in every category) here, and you can find all our Prime Day coverage here.

It's finally almost here! This is your game plan for securing the best deals during the retailer's big summer sales event.

On top of that, the Wirecutter Deals team tracks prices all year round to confirm that every discount we feature is actually a good deal. That means we can even tell you about the quality of the deal, such as if it’s the lowest price we’ve seen this year (or ever).
