Prime Big Deal Days is on its way once more, and Amazon’s fall sale is open to Prime members on Oct. 6 and 7. Discounts cover everything from kitchen gadgets to smart home devices, which makes this the perfect time to cross a few names off your holiday list early. And if you don’t want to wait until early October to get cracking on your must-buy list, you don’t have to — some of the best deals are actually live right now.

Some prices have already started to fall in the weeks leading up to the event, especially on Amazon’s own devices. Fresh deals are popping up each day, and plenty of them come in under $50. That’s good news if you’re shopping for stocking stuffers, a small gift for a coworker, or something for yourself that won’t eat into your holiday budget.

We’ll keep this list updated leading up to and throughout the sale. In the meantime, here are some of the best early Prime Big Deal Days deals you can grab for less than $50.

Best Amazon device deal

Why we like it

The Fire TV Stick 4K Max recently saw its list price increase at Amazon to $84.99, but there’s good news for shoppers ahead of Prime Big Deal Days: it’s currently on sale for $44.99. That’s nearly half off, which is a discount we’ll certainly welcome. It’s a worthy investment if you’re looking for a streaming upgrade, boasting 4K Ultra HD picture quality alongside support for Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and even Dolby Atmos audio to really immerse you in what you watch.

Best earbud deal

Why we like it

These earbuds have active noise cancellation to cut down on the chatter around you, plus a Smart Ambient mode that lets outside sound back in when you need to hear what’s going on in the real world. They boast 10 hours of playtime with an additional 30 hours from the charging case, and they’re IP54-rated, so rain and sweat won’t hurt them. For under $50, they’re a great option to toss in your bag and go.

Best kitchen deal

Why we like it

This versatile “everything” oven heats from the top and bottom plates simultaneously to give pizza a crispy crust, and it’s ready to cook in as little as three minutes. The 12-inch nonstick plates also work for plenty of other goodies: quesadillas, omelets, pancakes, grilled sandwiches, you name it. When it’s time to clean up, just wipe it with a damp cloth. Then close it and stand it upright so it doesn’t take up much counter space when dinner is over.

Best home security deal

Why we like it

Keep an eye on who darkens your doorstep with this video doorbell. It records 2K footage with a head-to-toe view, so you can see a visitor’s face and packages, pets, or other guests in the same frame. It’s battery-powered, so you can mount it right outside your door without touching any wiring, though you can also connect it to your existing doorbell wiring if you’d like it to ring inside your home. When someone stops by, you can talk to them from your phone through two-way audio with noise cancellation.

Best beauty deal

Why we like it

This tool is awesome for achieving pin-straight, sleek hair. It heats up and straightens your hair while you brush, so you can smooth out frizz and waves while detangling. Its teeth have an anti-scald design that lets you get close to your roots without burning your scalp, which makes it easy to use on the back of your head, too.

Best outdoor deal

If you enjoy camping in this cooler fall weather, a camping chair is an important addition to your outdoor gear. If you’re looking for a new option to chill out in, the Amazon Basics Camping Chair is on sale, exclusively for Prime members. It’s a comfortable pick with a breathable mesh back, a built-in cup holder for your favorite drink, a side pocket, and a beverage cooler pouch that holds up to 4 12-ounce cans.
