Disclosure: If you shop from my article or make a purchase through one of my links, I may receive commissions on some of the products I recommend.
Amazon’s massive annual sale is back, and this week, Prime Big Deal Days happens over two days (from October 7 through October 8, 2025) and you have to move quickly if you want the best deals before they go away.
The sheer number of deals available can be overwhelming, so I’ve put together this list of my favorite home and garden products to help you get started. Since new deals continually launch throughout the sale, I’ll update my list today and tomorrow as I find more deals worth sharing.
So what makes my recommendations different?
I’m sure your news feed is popping with all sorts of sites promoting Amazon Prime Days. But my list is different because I only recommend the items that I personally own and use (and love!) or I recommend items that have been sitting in my shopping cart for a while, after much thought and research, and now I can finally take advantage of Prime Day pricing to buy them.
How to shop the sale
To take advantage of Amazon Prime Day Deals, you must be a Prime member. You can sign up here for a free 30-day trial.
It’s worth the cost if you decide to keep your membership. My husband and I share a household Prime membership and use it for free shipping, Prime Video, Amazon Music, Amazon Photos (unlimited photo storage), and GrubHub+ (free food delivery from local restaurants). There are other benefits too (like discounted prescriptions, Prime Fuel, Prime Reading, and Prime Gaming) that we don’t use.
Prime members also get exclusive discounts outside of Prime Days, so even if you don’t shop this week, you’ll have year-round access to special prices on lots of different items (which isn’t made clear as a perk, but I’ve seen this firsthand when I browse Amazon without being logged in to my account).
Because I’m a longtime Amazon partner (meaning I earn commissions from qualifying purchases through the links in this post), I also have the honor of giving away two $500 Amazon.com gift cards to two lucky Garden Betty followers! Keep reading to the end to find out how to enter for your chance to win.
Quick Tip
If you’re like me, you probably have tons of items in your “Save for Later” cart or Amazon wish list. Scan through those and see if any of them are Prime Day Deals today!
Prime Day Deals I’m loving
EcoFlow Delta Pro Portable Power Station – This has been on my mind lately because our neighborhood had several power outages over the summer (as a “precautionary measure” by the utility company) and I don’t think things will get any better anytime soon. If you don’t have a solution for power outages, blackouts, or emergencies, this generator is worth looking into.
You’ll need to compare generators that have enough power to run the appliances and devices you need, but this particular model is rated for whole-house backup for up to four days. (I’m also considering this Westinghouse tri-fuel model that can run off our propane tank.)
EGO Power+ Leaf Blower – You’ll see a few EGO products on my list because we LOVE them around here. And EGO usually has different tools on sale during each Prime Day event, so you can start building your collection of these powerful cordless yard tools (which all use the same high-capacity batteries).
EGO Power+ Chainsaw – My husband cut down a 30-foot-tall pine tree with this chain saw, and powers through large hardwood logs with ease. He sees no need for a gas-powered chain saw now.
EGO Power+ Electric Snow Blower – Winter’s coming! And if you buy a snow blower, it probably won’t snow 🤣 but why not be prepared when there’s a Prime Day deal on this 24-inch blower? We’ve had ours for over four years and love how clean and quiet it is compared to a gas-powered snow thrower. (It also handles our 300-foot driveway on one charge!)
Worx 2-in-1 Folding Work Table – My husband has had this portable workbench for years and it’s an indispensable part of his garage gear. It folds down easily for storage or transport, and it’s lightweight yet heavy duty. Two of them can be turned into a sawhorse that supports 1,000 pounds!
Vego Garden Metal Raised Bed – I wanted to start a new mushroom bed on the shady side of my house, so I bought this metal raised bed a few months ago. So far I’m not disappointed! I have the 17-inch-tall version that allows for multiple sizes and configurations. (The smooth edge trim was key for me, as I’ve read reviews on similar—yet cheaper—metal beds that are fabricated with sharp or unfinished edges.)
Wells Lamont Water-Resistant Work Gloves – These are my favorite garden gloves, which means I’m picking up a couple extra pairs for backup! They’re super comfortable, breathable, protect against pokey things, and have good dexterity for gardening and general yard work. (There’s also a men’s version.)
Fiskars Vegetable Garden Tool Set – I don’t own this exact tool set, but I do have the vegetable shears and hand seed sower that are included and use them year-round! I’ve always been happy with the various Fiskars tools I own and I think this 6-piece kit would make a great gift for any gardener.
Fiskars 32-Inch Loppers – I have a whole collection of Fiskars tools in the garage, and these loppers don’t disappoint. They have good reach for tall shrubs and will cut branches up to 2 inches in diameter.
Fiskars Extendable Tree Pruner and Pole Saw – My husband uses this tool to trim branches from our willow tree. The pole extends up to 12 feet and you can switch between pruning shears or a pruning saw, depending on the job.
Fiskars Pruning Snips – I keep a couple of these small garden shears around the house for trimming herbs and houseplants (though they’re great to use outside too). The spring-action handle makes light pruning tasks super quick and easy.
Back to the Roots Worm Castings – I like to add worm castings at transplanting time, because they’re full of nutrients yet won’t burn your plants. This is a brand I tried this year, and I think it really helped my seedlings flourish in summer.
Back to the Roots Coconut Coir – I make my own seed starting mix and part of the three-ingredient recipe includes peat moss or coco coir. I decided to buy this brick of coir for cost-effectiveness and it expanded to fill a huge tub! It worked well and that initial brick will last me at least three seasons. (You don’t have to expand the full brick at once, by the way; you can simply break off a small amount as needed.)
Chapin 48-Ounce Sprayer – For watering newly seeded trays, I like using this spray bottle since it outputs a fine consistent mist (and doesn’t dislodge seeds, which always happens with a watering can).
Garden Safe Insecticidal Soap – If you want to control aphids, mites, mealybugs, whiteflies, and other soft-bodied insects, insecticidal soap is the safest way to get rid of them without harming your plants. (I especially like to use this spray on houseplants.)
ThermoPro Digital Hygrometer – I’ve used this simple standalone version for years to monitor the temperature and humidity inside my chicken coop. As my garden and needs have grown, I’ve upgraded to this wireless set that comes with a display unit and remote sensor (no wifi or apps needed). I stick sensors in the coop, the greenhouse, the garage where I store all my garlic and seeds, and elsewhere—and view all the sensors on a single, small and unobtrusive display.
Taylor Humidiguide Dial Thermometer – I bought this for my kids’ school garden last year and hung it in the greenhouse so we can easily monitor temperatures and humidity. I love the large analog display and how low-maintenance it is (no battery or plug needed). It’s also rated for outdoor use so you could mount it on a fence or shed instead.
Vevor Greenhouse Plastic Sheeting – We use this for a small greenhouse that protects our potted citrus trees. Our high-desert climate can be pretty brutal but this 6 mil polyethylene film lasts quite a while without tearing.
Run-Chicken Automatic Coop Door – If you’re still letting your chickens in and out yourself every day, you must upgrade to an automatic door! I’ve owned this model for years and it’s never failed our flock, even in single-digit temps. (They also make a solar-powered version.)
Liquid Fence Deer & Rabbit Repellent – If it feels like your garden is merely there to feed deer and rabbits, this ready-to-use liquid formula is worth a try. I’ve found that spraying it on ornamental plants helps keep pests away from flowers and shrubs. (I don’t use this on food crops.)
Sun Joe Electric Power Washer – Every house needs a good pressure washer. We use ours to wash the car, wash the RV, clean the chicken coop, spray down our porch, and just get the gunk off our siding and sheds after a dusty or muddy season.
Mason Jar Lid Organizer – I always struggle to keep all my canning lids and rings neatly organized, especially right now when I’m deep in canning season. So I jumped on this deal because it looks exactly like what I need for the cupboard!
Rubbermaid Brilliance Glass Containers – I replaced all my round and mismatched plastic sets with these glass food containers a few years ago and wish I’d gotten them sooner. They’re conveniently modular for storage, the lids have held up well and I love that they’re interchangeable across containers. (There’s also a BPA-free plastic set if you prefer less weight.)
Anji Mountain Black Boot Tray – We don’t wear shoes in the house, so I’ve got these stylish boot trays at the front door, back door, and mud room to corral all our shoes. They really help keep all the dirt and mud off our floors!
Bissell Little Green Carpet Cleaner – I don’t know how this little machine does it, but it’s absolutely saved our carpets and upholstery over the years! (We have a white sofa that still looks new after pets and kids have attempted to destroy it. 😅) If you struggle with stains or want to do your own car detailing, read the reviews on this carpet cleaner. They’re impressive!
Bissell TurboClean Carpet Cleaner – I have the previous version of this upright carpet cleaner and the first time I used it—I kid you not—it was able to remove stains that a professional carpet cleaning company couldn’t get out! I now use this twice a year throughout the house and the Little Green model (above) for spot treatments.
Ravenna Water-Resistant Patio Lounge Chair Cover – If you have to cover your outdoor furniture over winter, this is the same cover that I’ve been using on my lounge chairs for the past six years. (I have the dark covers, but they also come in a lighter sand color.)
SoloStove Bonfire 2.0 – We’ve owned the original SoloStove Bonfire for eight years and have taken it on all kinds of camping trips and tailgating parties (and it still looks like new). We also use it at home and it’s just the right size to fit a couple families around it.
Grand Trunk Trunk Tech Hammock – Our family started backpacking again and I’ve been upgrading our gear each year as I find deals. (Turns out, you have to carry a lot more gear when you go with little kids. 😆) I just bought this ultralight hammock (less than 12 ounces!) and will likely use it with these ultralight Python UL hammock straps (only 3 ounces) or ENO Helios straps (4 ounces).
LuminAid Solar Light – I bought this light for camping over the summer and it’s oh so fun! Lightweight, easy to pack (even for backpacking), and you get three different functions in one unit: a lantern, a set of string lights, and a USB phone charger. I have both the warm white and multicolor versions, and they’re the perfect brightness for adding ambience and helping you see just enough to move around your campsite.
Montem Collapsible Trekking Poles – This is a crazy good price for these hiking poles! I bought them last year for backpacking and used them this whole summer as well. They’re sturdy, lightweight, collapsible, and just as good as my previous pair of (more expensive) Black Diamond poles. (Montem also makes a carbon fiber version.)

Lots of great stuff! I have most of the Ego collection and I can’t say enough things. The chainsaw in particular is so much lighter than a gas one and still very powerful. We’ve felled many large trees with it! The liquid fence, work table and automatic chicken coop door are at the top of my list!
Hello, Linda. I appreciate your work. I do have The CSA Cookbook on Kindle. This would be a great opportunity to get the physical copy and some of your other books as well. I think books would be a great way to spend the gift card!
So many great product suggestions in your post! One thing I’d love to get is the Ego leaf blower to go with our Ego mower and trimmer. But, let’s be real, I’d use the Amazon gift card to buy Christmas gifts for my kiddos. ‘Tis (almost) the season!
Great giveaway. Among all of stuff to pick from what I need the most would be some copper fungicide and the the neem oil.
thanks for the chance to win.
Excellent post!! If I won I’d totally buy a chicken Feather remover (bot didn’t like the original term lol) for future meat bird processing!
Hi Linda, If I win I would love the Vego raised garden bed. I had made some bottomless beds from wood and they are now packed full of tree roots, so I’m changing to growing in pots. I love all your posts, I have learned so much from you! Thank you!
I’d love to buy more garden trellises for my yard. I’ve been growing a lot of cucumbers this season and the netting doesn’t look like it will hold up beyond this season.
Clicked “Add to Cart” for the Anji Mountain Boot Tray. Love that it’s not plain plastic and actually looks stylish! Thanks for all the great product ideas. 🙂
