Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is nearly live, and as usual multiple retailers have introduced their own Prime Day-like sales to compete with Amazon. In this article we're tracking a few sitewide sales from Sony, Walmart, and Best Buy with big discounts on monitors, TVs, headphones, and more.

Best Buy recently kicked off a "Techtober" sale, with sitewide sales on everything from home appliances to computers, video games, and more.



One of the best items to buy during Prime Day is always a new TV, and this year the savings are steep on sets from Samsung, Insignia, LG, and more. Best Buy has as much as $1,400 off select TVs during its Techtober event, and we've rounded up a few highlights below.
