Amazon sales in Australia in 2025: the top weekly deals and how to maximise your savings
Prime Day is over, but you can still save on everything from smartphones and vacuums to kitchen appliances and headphones

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale, the second Prime Day of the year is over, wrapping up at on Monday, October 13. However, even on a regular week Amazon provides some of the best deals available in Australia – and there's still a whole bunch of deals left over from the massive discount bonanza.
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.

Already affordable, these wireless buds get a further 30% discount – equal to the lowest price we've seen before on Amazon. That's not bad considering we rate them 4.5 stars in our Earfun Air Pro 3 review, and they have active noise cancelling, premium aptX sound quality and 45 hours total play time.

Just AU$2 more than its July price, the JBL Flip 6 has been one of the best Bluetooth speakers you can get. It serves up everything you could need from a portable speaker, namely a fun, engaging sound, up to 12 hours of battery life and the ability to daisy chain with up to 100 other Flip 6 speakers!

With two USB-C ports accompanying a single USB-A socket, this Anker charger has a higher 65W output than cheaper models. Its list price has dropped from around the AU$65 mark, and this discount is only a dollar more than the Prime Day price from the last few days. This isn't the cheapest it's been, but it's still highly recommendable at this price.

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? Consider the AU$89.90 Wacaco Minipresso which earned four stars in our review.
Phones & tablets

One of the best cheap phones in Australia, this Motorola handset is packed full of value if you don't need the latest and bestest phone on the market. For your money, you get a vivid display, impressive battery life and very good everyday performance. Don't expect it to handle heavy gaming, but its plenty for the average user. And this 29% discount is still the same price we saw during the sale.

Samsung's slimmest phone yet has dropped to just under the AU$1,200 mark earlier this year, but I think a AU$600 saving isn't something to scoff at. Whether this will get cheaper is anyone's guess, but if you don't want to wait, pick up the 256GB for 22% off or the 512GB for a decent 20% discount via the same listing on a premium skinny Android handset.

At full price, we think this is the best tablet for students. Really, though, it's a great option for those who need more power than the A16 iPad but don't want to pay for the iPad Pro, thanks to its laptop-level power, affordable price and ultra-portability. Earning 4.5 stars in our review, our tester loved its power, battery life, audio quality and vibrant display that allow it to excel in any activity, be it gaming, editing, reading or watching movies. If you don't need all that power, the iPad mini is down to only AU$687.

Despite the discount, the ViWoods AiPaper is still an expensive tablet, but it more than earns its keep by offering plenty of productivity features on a display that's easy on the eyes. You get the choice of two AI assistants for various tasks, including voice-to-text or handwriting-to-text conversion, plus full access to the Google Play Store. Read our 4.5-star review for the full scoop.
Alternatively, the 8-inch ViWoods AiPaper Mini gets you the exact same functionality, and a 24% discount drops the price to AU$759.99.
Headphones & speakers

It was AU$178.60 for a couple of days this month and now the latest entry-level AirPods are back to the usual AU$188 discounted price. Not a big discount but one still worth considering for spatial audio and a beautiful soundstage, as well as dynamic head tracking. Additionally, a battery life of up to five hours on a single charge and 30 hours with the included carry case will keep you listening for longer. This pair lacks active noise cancellation though.

Here's a doozy: these cans didn't get a discount during the October sale, but the white variant from industry stalwart AKG (now owned by Samsung) is currently going at a very good price. In our 4.5-star AKG N9 Hybrid review, we praised them for their superb audio quality and included USB-C dongle that allows any compatible device to stream in higher-resolution codecs.

Grab a fantastic 39% off the older but still amazing Motion+ Bluetooth speaker from Anker. It has a 30W output, supports aptX, is waterproof, and can have two units paired together for stereo. For more info, check out our Anker Soundcore Motion Plus review. While not the lowest price we have seen (it dipped under AU$100 last year), it's still an excellent deal.

Google's Wi-Fi 6e capable mesh system is worth considering for big homes, although we've seen discounts that make this 3-pack cheaper than half price. You can position each unit around your home to create an even blanket of Wi-Fi, cracking down on dead spots. A single unit costs AU$257 on Amazon now, making this 3-pack much better value per node.

This TP-Link Deco XE75 mesh system is great for smaller homes or apartments, as its Wi-Fi 6E tri-band connectivity allows it to better avoid congestion by using the newly unlocked 6GHz band, plus it has a range of improved technologies that better handle crowded airwaves.
Cameras

This is Canon's first compact camera in years, picking up where the fabulous and popular PowerShot G7 X series left off. It features a brand-new 22.3MP 1.4-inch sensor that boasts Canon's trusty Dual Pixel CMOS II autofocus and it has an integrated fan to keep things cool for the content creator. With plenty of grunt under the hood, this is the best price yet on this relatively new camera.

This might be an entry-level camera but it has some advanced features. Anyone who wants to shoot wildlife or sports will be thrilled with the 40fps burst speed, and it inherits some of the tracking precision from Canon's higher-end cameras too. With a 24.2MP full-frame sensor, it's one of the lightest cameras available today and represents excellent value for a beginner even though this isn't the best price it's been, but its cheaper than last week.

This micro four thirds camera is a real marvel. We were so impressed with it that it scored 4.5 stars in our OM System OM-1 Mark II review. Its image quality is par excellence but its standout features are its superb stabilisation and the built-in graduated ND filters. It's a serious little camera for the serious photographer.

Want to make your home movies more immersive? This Govee backlight and camera system effectively extends the on-screen image beyond its bezelled confines and accurately tracks colours and flashes to the wall behind. It can also sync with music to dance along to your favourite tunes. Note that this is designed for 55 to 65-inch TVs and is about AU$10 more than its previous price.

The price of what is one of the best video doorbells you can get in Australia has been fluctuating a lot on Amazon, and it's been down to AU$145 previously. Still, you can't ignore a 29% discount. It's easy to install, offers clear footage even at night and features facial recognition. Recording automatically begins when motion is detected, or when its button is pressed, plus it will let you know when packages have been left outside your door.
Vacuum cleaners

Scoring almost five stars in our Shark Detect Pro Cordless vacuum cleaner review, we called this vacuum "a wonder". Versatile, powerful, offering automatic power adjustment and equally good at cleaning hard floors as it is on carpet, this is one of the best vacuums on the market, at a stellar price. It was a smidge over AU$508 during Prime Big Deal Days, but I would happily recommend it at this discount as well.

This Roborock wet-dry vacuum will leave your hard floors sparkling clean thanks to powerful suction and effective cleaning. It can get up close to edges and the whole body can lay completely flat to help getting underneath tricky to reach places. This price is equal to the lowest we have seen on Amazon and is a great saving on an excellent floor washer – read our review for more info.

AU$600 off, this is one of the better prices that we've seen the Dyson V15 Detect Absolute – and we think it’s worth snapping up. Earning 4.5 stars in our Dyson V15 Detect cordless vacuum review, this Absolute version comes with two main cleaner heads and three extra tool attachments.

We rate the Vertuo Creatista as the best Nespresso machine out there thanks to its use of the Vertuo pods, which come in a range of cup and mug sizes and an integrated milk frother. It performs exceptionally well, too, and will brew your morning cuppa in no time at all. The price here is only for the Stainless Steel colorway.

It's got a cult-like following and two members of our own staff are massive fans. If you love your chilled desserts – ice creams, gelatos, smoothies – but want to control your calorie intake, you really should consider getting the Ninja Creami. This Deluxe edition gets you three containers, which is great value at this price, which is about AU$17 more than last week.

This rather genius fan in Shark's arsenal has been cheaper before, but I still think it's a good investment with the days getting warmer in most parts of the country. We gave it a solid 4.5 stars in our Shark Flexbreeze Fan review, praising it for its versatility as it can have its height adjusted or convert into a tabletop fan with the press of a button, but it can also work indoors and outdoors. It's cordless, too, with a single charge lasting up to 24 hours.
Personal care

There was a whopping 63% discount last week on what is one of the top electric toothbrushes, but I think even this 50% off would make you smile. It's a smart brush that harnesses the power of AI to recognise your personal brushing style and provide feedback to improve it. The feedback you'll get via the companion app. It also features a pressure sensor and an interactive display, plus comes with a magnetic charging stand.

There is excellent value for money here as this one tool will take care of hair anywhere on the body. It comes with 15 attachments and offers 26 hair length settings. Its battery life also promises to be just as good – up to 4 weeks on a single charge. It also happens to be waterproof. That's a lot of personal grooming for a little over AU$100.

This is Dyson's latest version of the Airwrap and it's a whole lot better than previous iteration. As we said in our Dyson Airwrap i.d. review, this multi-styler creates effortless curls at the touch of a customisable button, in combination with powerful airflow. Plus, with the attachments included, it doubles as a hair dryer, making this the only tool you need in your bathroom.

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.
