How do Prime Big Deal Days deals and competitor sales at other retailers compare with Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals?
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days and competitive sales at other major retailers have many similarities with Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Anecdotally, Black Friday tends to have better deals on large ticket items such as TVs, home appliances and laptops, while Prime Big Deal Days will tend to focus on more everyday essentials and items under $50.
If you are looking for a good bargain on stuff you are likely to need all year round, buy them during Prime Big Deal Days. If you are looking for that "once-a-year" bargain, Black Friday is probably your best bet. If you want to beat the holiday rush, there will be plenty of items on sale that make great gifts for loved ones.
