Amazon Prime Day is probably the most anticipated shopping event of the year next to Black Friday. This year’s 48-hour shopping event takes place on July 11-12, 2023. We’re expecting incredible savings on everything from outdoor staples like fire pits to big-ticket items like patio furniture and greenhouses on deep discount. But there’s a catch: these savings are only available to Prime members.
If you’ve already exhausted your 30-day free trial and don’t have a Prime subscription (or you can’t wait for the best Prime Day deals to drop), there’s still a way to score Amazon Prime Day-ish savings on tools and barbecues. The secret? Prime Day alternatives. These competitor sales respond to Prime Day by offering savings as good as—and sometimes better—than Amazon. Whenever two retailers compete, prices drop and shoppers reap the benefits.
We rounded up the best Prime Day alternatives that you need to shop, including Fourth of July savings and warehouse sales. Plus, shop our favorite deals ahead of Prime Day by taking a look at the list below.

Our Top Picks
The Chill Mattress
This 10-inch memory foam mattress isn’t your average bed-in-a-box. Instead, it offers cooling comfort for hot sleepers thanks to fabric-encased coils that provide a way for heat to dissipate. Limited motion transfer and reinforced edges round out this splurge-worthy mattress. A trusted brand name coupled with a generous savings of $380 makes the Chill mattress one of our favorite finds from these Prime Day alternatives.
Bonfire Cast Iron Grill Cooking Bundle
After trying the Solo Stove cast iron grill top, we can’t get enough of this easy-to-use camping stove. Save some money by snagging the cooktop bundled with the Bonfire fire pit and save a staggering 40%. Apart from perfectly cooked burgers and steaks, the Bonfire is capable of cooking up s’mores over its smoke-free flames. Simply remove the cooktop and get roasting!
Stone Bath Mat
Our readers love our review of the stone bath mat from Sutera, and we loved testing it. Now, this odor and mildew-free mat is even more tempting thanks to a generous $17 markdown when you shop these Prime Day alternatives. A slip-resistant design, quick-drying diatomaceous earth construction and fun look make it easy to fall in love with this quirky bath mat.
Carhartt Rugged Flex Work Short
Carhartt is one of the best men’s workwear brands thanks to its superior quality and tried-and-true materials. The rugged flex work shorts are a total steal at a savings of 20%. They’re made from stretchy, durable canvas that resists rips and snags. Strong belt loops and a pocket made for phones and utility knives make these shorts our favorite from the brand’s summer collection.
Wood Pool Table
Why not splurge on one of the best pool tables on Wayfair while it’s $300 off? The Kirkwood pool table boasts modern K-shaped legs, a striking blue fabric surface and rustic-blonde wood that matches well with several different decor styles. Concealed drop pockets easily hold the included balls when it’s time to stop playing. Everything needed for a game of Billiards is included, so it’s a snap to set up and start shooting.
Yeti Roadie 24 Cooler
Yeti sales are so rare, we could barely believe our eyes when we saw the Yeti Roadie 24 cooler marked down by 20%. Like Yeti’s other offerings—including their dog bowls—this cooler is made to move. Rotomolded polyethylene is virtually indestructible, so take this cooler on the trail without worry. Heavy insulation keeps ice cold for days on end—now that’s cool!
Short-Sleeve Venture Coverall
Finding fashionable and functional workwear for women isn’t an easy feat, which is why we’re going gaga for this short-sleeve Venture coverall. Available at a savings of 40%, this cotton-twill coverall features an internal elastic-and-button system that comfortably cinches the waist. Multiple pockets hold everything from pencils to paintbrushes, and we love the chic trim on the tush.
Laze Pillow
We love shopping Prime Day alternatives that offer fun poolside savings. Laze pillows are the perfect way to jazz up above-ground pools. These cozy people-sized pillows fill with air and offer a cloud-like lounger for folks of any age. Right now, snag one of these fun floaters on sale for $80 off.
Compact Washer
Save $500 on this compact washer during Electrolux’s washer and dryer deals. At 24 inches wide, it fits in most small laundry rooms and offers a steam refresh cycle that revives worn-but-not-dirty clothing in a snap. We also love the fast wash option that cuts wash time down, making it easy to sneak a load before work.
Outdoor Roku Smart TV
Finding this outdoor Roku smart TV on a $200 markdown is good news for folks who have been pining for an outdoor TV. Apart from the clever addition of tempered and anti-glare glass, it also boasts a waterproof construction that resists rain. Dust, dirt, humidity and snow are no match for this TV—it’s weatherproof and protected against temperatures as low as -4°F.
