Prime Day in October is here. To find the best deals in each category, follow them all our Prime Day coverage.

There are a few criteria that make up a Prime Day deal Strictly speaking good deal: The product is discounted by 25 percent or more, it's rarely on sale, and it's the lowest price ever. Given the seemingly endless list of deals to browse through each Prime Day, this last criterion is ultimately why I click “Add to Cart” when searching for deals. That's why, for Prime Day, I've rounded up the best deals on items available at their lowest prices ever, including some of Strategist's favorite products (and some of my own).

Here's the fine print: Amazon's 48-hour sale started today and runs through Wednesday, October 9th. Offers end at 11:59 p.m. PT (2:59 a.m. ET on Thursday, October 10). For more of the best deals we found, check out our October Prime Day deals hub.

The Garmin Forerunner is the only running watch you need. At 45 percent off, this is the lowest price I've seen for the 255 model.

This is my favorite noise canceling headphones. At $60 they're already a bargain, but it's hard to beat $40.

Strategic tech writer Jordan McMahon says these stylish over-ear headphones are the best option for Apple users. “The convenience of pairing them with all your Apple gear can’t be beat,” he says.

This is my top recommendation for a protein powder and it's rarely on sale.

I use a similar version of this Nutribullet to make my daily protein shake. For under $100, this is a solid deal.

Anything over 50 percent off is a great discount in my opinion, but 60 percent off for this genetic test is one of the biggest discounts on this list!

If you've been waiting to buy an iPad, this is probably the best deal you'll find in a while.

Now it’s time to get our top recommendation for a stone bath mat.

I use this stainless steel shaker bottle to keep my protein shakes cool throughout the day. (Think of it as an upgrade from your average blender bottle.)

There's plenty of Yeti on sale, including this 46oz Rambler that will replace all the other stainless steel bottles in your cupboard…

…and this mug will replace your other travel mugs.

This Lumie is the best budget choice in my guide to sunrise alarm clocks, and after just a few nights of using it, it has noticeably changed my sleep routine for the better.

This is more of a sleep station than an alarm clock, and now is the best time to grab it on sale.

The simplest and most affordable smart speaker at the lowest price ever.

Peace of mind in nature for $10.
