Amazon sales in Australia in 2025: the top weekly deals and how to maximise your savings
Save big on robot vacuums, Samsung phones, Sony headphones and more thanks to these early Prime Day discounts

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale is basically the second Prime Day of the year, landing on October 7 and running for a full week before it ends on October 13.
While we're excited to see what will hopefully be the best Amazon sales of the year, the retailer's regular weekly deals offer plenty of savings to keep us busy in the meantime.
That's why we created this guide – to simplify the process and help you easily discover and take advantage of the week's top offers. Whether you're looking to snag one of our five budget buys of the week or a great deal on big-ticket items like the best stick vacuums, all you have to do is click 'add to cart'.
Deals during big sales like Prime Day are often Prime member-exclusive (though you can try Prime 30-days free to take advantage), but the majority of the best weekly discounts are open to the public. This means you can shop and save without spending the AU$9.99 to sign up.

Of course, once you've tasted a Prime subscription, it's hard to go without.

Amazon's best budget buys of the week
Our resident power bank expert thinks this affordable Ugreen is the best magnetic wireless power bank you can buy. It has a large 10,000mAh capacity, fuss-free MagSafe (or Qi2 for non-iPhones) charging and even offers a nice little kickstand for easy viewing while charging. Prime members can redeem a code for this price. Non-members still get a hefty discount – down to AU$49.99.
If you want one wall charger that can charge all your devices (and quickly), then it's hard to go past this offering. Able to charge three devices simultaneously or one with speeds of 65W, whether you're looking to keep your phone, headphones and ereader charged up, or quickly give your laptop juice, this mighty charger is for you.
This drip-style coffee maker lets you wake up to a fresh pot of coffee every morning and it will even keep it warm all morning for those cold days working from home. You can program it to brew at a specific time and even adjust the strength of your brew. Don't want something taking up much counter space? You should also consider the AU$89.90 Wacaco Minipresso which earned four stars in our review.
This is a fantastic deal if you're looking for an affordable air fryer that won't take up too much space on your kitchen counter. It has a 5.7L basket that can feed two to three people, and it offers simple controls for one-touch air frying, baking or roasting. This is only AU$0.99 more than the lowest price we have, so this is a great deal.
For their regular price, our tester had no issue calling these "the best earbuds for noise cancellation you can get for the price" in our Sony WF-C710N review – so they're quite the buy at 22% off. Offering top-class (and much improved) ANC, great battery life and much improved call quality from their predecessors.
Top Amazon deals of the week
Price aside, we think this offering from Anker is the best power bank that money can buy – and it's a whole heap more affordable with this deal. It's perfect for laptops, providing an output up to 140W to give the fastest charging speeds. Plus, it has multiple USB ports and a large 24,000 mAh capacity, making it great for travel.
Our favourite pair of wireless earbuds, the Technics AZ80 serve up a beautifully detailed sound that outdoes anything else at this price. The fact they can connect to three devices at once and remain supremely comfortable no matter how long you wear them makes them practically perfect. The discount here is only slightly less than the best we have seen.
We gave these stunning earbuds 4.5 stars out of 5 in our Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 review, as they have class-leading audio handling and impeccable sound quality that rivals the best wireless earbuds. With balanced sound, effective ANC and a great battery life, these Sennheiser buds will make any audiophile smile. This discount is now only available on the Black Graphite colourway.
It's one of the bestselling soundbar on Amazon and that doesn't surprise me in the least. It was very well received by experts at its price point when it launched in 2023, and has remained a top option for users too. And at this price, it's a fantastic budget option with Dolby Atmos support, plenty of bass and a wide soundstage.
Our esteemed colleagues at What Hi-Fi? said this turntable from JBL is a surefire winner in the budget space. It has a great quality built-in phono output making connection to an amplifier as easy as possible (but you can bypass it if you wish) or you can stream via Bluetooth to a wireless speaker. It also looks pretty darn good in our opinion. If you're looking for an affordable turntable upgrade, or a solid starting point to enter the world of vinyl, this JBL spinner is an excellent choice.
According to our 4.5-star Ninja Luxe Café review, this machine is worth the hype. Our tester said it was "an espresso machine anyone can master" that offers pro-level drinks without the effort. She also applauded its consistently great brews, ease of use, striking build and excellent value – quite a statement considering its price. This deal lets you snag it as it releases on Oct 8 at this discounted price.
Reviewed by the same writer in our Roborock Saros 10 review, this one earned four stars, too – calling it "a game changer for getting under the sofa". It offers very good suction and mopping, with a dock that handles the majority of maintenance. The key here, though, is its retractable puck that offers a lower profile for sneaking under furniture. Plus, hair won't get tangled in it.
Best Amazon product discounts
Already one of the more affordable indoor security cameras in Australia, 62% off makes it an excellent deal. If you don't need a complicated setup with multiple cameras, this little lens will help you keep an eye on your home while you're away, offering 1080p video footage. If you don't want it spying on anything, there's a handy cover too. You'll also get a 30-day free trial of Ring Protect, which you will need a subscription to if you want a record of previous footage.
The Echo Pop was down to a super low price of AU$29 during Black Friday last year, so we were hoping for lower. That said, this is still a decent price to get started with a smart home setup. The Echo Pop is Amazon's simplest smart speaker, with a compact size that makes it perfect to slot into small spaces. With Alexa built in and ready to take on your commands, you’ll be listening to tunes and setting timers and alarms without having to whip out your phone.
Looking for a way to add a voice assistant to your car? From making phone calls, switching songs to finding routes, this handy little gadget can even help you control your home's smart gadgets while you're on the road – you'll never have to worry about forgetting to switch off the lights before leaving the house again! Plus it's over 50% off, and at the equal lowest price we have seen yet.
This upgraded model of the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is one of the best-value streaming sticks, especially for Amazon customers who appreciate Alexa. It supports 4K ultra HD resolution, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Plus and Dolby Atmos audio – plus cloud gaming via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Use it to access popular streaming subscriptions like Netflix, Disney Plus, Paramount Plus and more. This is a decent price, though I have seen it down to AU$49 previously.
Available in the Australian market as of October 2024, the Blink Outdoor 4 is an affordable home security camera from Amazon with the ability to last up to two years off of two AA batteries. It comes with an easy-to-use app and fairly good camera quality via a 1080p lens, and can store video when paired with a Blink Sync module. At half price, it's an attractive home camera that you can place almost anywhere around your home.
This 1080p HD video doorbell provides the ultimate peace of mind when you're home or away. By syncing 24/7 video to your phone, you can receive notifications when anyone presses it or activates the motion sensors. Plus, the doorbell is completely powered by a built-in rechargeable battery or can easily be wired into your home's electrical system for constant power.
The Echo Spot is a compact smart speaker that provides surprisingly vibrant sound. It works as an alarm clock, showing or telling you the time whenever you need it. Alexa functionality means you can ask it for the weather, the latest news, or to play music, while it’ll also control your smart home. It’s the new essential item to have by your bedside and it's at the lowest price we have seen.
There are video doorbells aplenty, but this one stands apart from the crowd by allowing you to see more. It promises to show you a head-to-toe image of who's at your door, and will do so in colour even at night. It also features motion detection and two-way talk. If you get a Ring Protection subscription, you'll also get notifications on when a package coming in for delivery is within a specified zone. The 40% off here is not as good as previous 50% off deals, but still great value overall.
The Echo Hub has dropped slightly lower to AU$189 before, but this is still a solid deal. Amazon's latest 8-inch smart display is a far cry from the Echo Show 8 we've come to know. It's essentially a tablet now that you can wall mount, and it gives you control of thousands of smart home devices that work over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other connectivity standards like Zigbee, Matter and Thread. You can stream video, even security footage, start routines, add widgets and a heck of a lot more you can't with a regular Echo Show.

Shopping tips
1. Become a Prime member
While it might cost you a monthly (or annual) fee to be a Prime member, it's the best way to maximise your savings, particularly if you think you're going to be shopping on the platform regularly. If you're not a Prime member yet, you can sign up now for a 30-day free trial and, if you do so just before a big sale and cancel the subscription before the trial ends, you get the full benefits without having to pay anything extra, albeit for a short period of time.
Benefits include free and fast shipping, exclusive and early access to select deals, plus free subscriptions to some of Amazon's other services like Prime Video, Prime Reading and Prime Gaming. Find out more about this subscription service in our guide to what is Amazon Prime.
2. Use Amazon coupons
We've got a dedicated page that lists a lot of Amazon coupon codes to help you save on your next shop, but there are always select items on the site that have a little check box that you can tick to bring the price down a little. These coupons can save you anywhere from 5% to 20% off a particular item, and occasionally there's a specific amount of money that gets deducted (e.g. AU$5 off a AU$20 portable power bank), so keep an eye out for them when shopping on Amazon.
Note that when you use these little boxes, the discounted price will only appear when you finally check out – not when the item is sitting in your virtual cart.
3. Track your cart
If you aren't in a hurry to buy something specific, you can always add it to your cart and click "save for later". Amazon has a handy functionality that automatically lets you know if an item in your cart has had a price change.
4. Set up alerts
If you don't want to keep logging into Amazon to check your cart, you can use a site called camelcamelcamel.com to see an item's price history. You just have to copy and paste the URL of the Amazon item you're interested in into Camelcamelcamel's search bar and voila, you get the price history represented by an easy-to-understand graph.
Monitoring this manually, though, can be annoying, so the folks behind this tracking site have created a handy browser plug-in that you can install to receive email alerts when a specific item gets a discount. This is particularly useful during Amazon's big sales if you know what you're after.
5. Use Amazon's Subscribe & Save program
If there are certain products you know you will buy regularly, particular pantry staples and toiletries, you can use the Subscribe & Save feature on Amazon. This option shows up as the default offer when click on items like laundry detergents, coffee pods, nail colour, baby-care items and more, and it's possible to save as much as 15%, with free shipping already available for Prime members.
6. Check Amazon's daily deals
Amazon has a dedicated hub that lists hundreds of offers, called Today's Deals. It sits right on top of the page and, while it looks a little daunting to browse, there are filters you can use to narrow down your search if you know what you're after.
If you happen to use an Echo smart device, you can also use a simple voice command to find out what the day's offers are by saying, "Alexa, what are my deals?"
7. Browse overstocked items in the Amazon Outlet store
Amazon also has a dedicated section called the Outlet Store that stocks clearance items going cheap. It also houses overstocked new items too, and these usually have some significant discounts. From electronics to homewares, the Outlet Store can save you a pretty penny, but note that some items may come in a damaged box. If so, there will be a note on the product listing page about its condition.
8. Shop during the big sales
If you're not in a rush to buy something, particularly an expensive item, consider waiting till a big sale comes knocking. When we say big, we mean the Prime Day and Amazon Black Friday sales. This is when we see the biggest discounts of the year.
That said, there are usually a lot of good deals during Big Smile sale and the Mid-Year sale, so don't ignore those if you're keen on shopping through the year.
Amazon Big Smile Sale: FAQs
What is the Amazon Big Smile sale?
While it's not as big as Amazon Prime Day or Amazon's offering during Black Friday, the Amazon Big Smile Sale is one of Amazon's major sales of the year. You can expect a massive range of discounts across the best headphones, stick vacuums, earbuds, cheap phones and more, but the main discounts will likely focus on Amazon-owned products like Kindle, Ring and Echo. It typically takes place in late March or early April.
What days are the big Amazon sales?
Amazon has four exclusive sales throughout the year, while also taking part in the big general sales alongside Australia’s major retailers. These sales start in March (or early April) with the Big Smile Sale, while the Mid-Year sale is Amazon's alternative to Australian EOFY sales in June. Then there's Amazon Prime Day in July, which now occurs twice each year with Prime Day 2 – or Big Deal Days – landing in October.
And, while they aren't specific to Amazon, the Amazon Black Friday and Boxing Day sales are undoubtedly two of the best times to shop.
Does Amazon have an EOFY sale?
While Amazon doesn't take part in EOFY sales per se, the Amazon Mid-Year Sale lines up with the Australian End of Financial season.
What is Amazon's biggest sale?
While it's not an Amazon-exclusive sale, there's little doubt that Amazon's deal offerings during Black Friday are usually the best we see during the year – but its Prime Day deals are right up there. The Amazon Big Deal Days sale is also worth circling on your calendar. Note, many of the deals during these sales are exclusive to Prime members.
What is the biggest sale in the world?
Between Boxing Day and Black Friday, it's hard to say which is the bigger global shopping event. While Boxing Day is an event for countries within the Commonwealth, and Boxing Day has an American origin, both are great times to pick up basically anything from any retailer across the globe.
However, it's possible neither Boxing Day nor Black Friday sales hold the crown of the world's biggest sale. That title might belong to Singles Day, held on November 11. A massive event in China, it has recently gained traction globally – and may increase in popularity in 2025.
