- Amazon Prime Day 2022 is the retailer's two-day sales event on July 12 and 13.
- Many retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and eBay offer competing sales.
- In the past, most other competing sales began earlier and ended later than Prime Day itself.
Like Black Friday, Amazon Prime Day has become another much-anticipated sales event. This year, Prime Day is scheduled for Tuesday, July 12, and Wednesday, July 13. Early Prime Day 2022 deals are already popping up.
Competing retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and others have also begun launching rival sales events, discounting big-ticket items like Apple products, TVs, and kitchen gadgets. With so many retail competitors vying for your business, this is a great time to score items big and small that you've been eyeing. You won't need a Prime membership to shop for these alternative sales, either.
To help you make the most of shopping at other retailers during Prime Day, we've answered a few frequently asked questions about these competing Prime Day sales below. We'll also add the best deals we see on other sites as they go live. Here's a list of competing Amazon Prime Day 2022 sales.

Walmart
Walmart's Deals for Days event typically lasts a day longer than Amazon Prime Day.
So far, Walmart Plus members don't get any exclusive perks during Deals for Days. For those unfamiliar, Walmart Plus is the retail giant's answer to a Prime membership. It offers unlimited same-day delivery for 160,000 items and costs $98 a year, about $20 less than one year of Amazon Prime.

This year's Target Deal Days event will be online from July 11 to 13. Target's sales event often includes savings on vacuums, Apple products, kitchen appliances, and headphones.
There are also early deals, including "deal of the day" special discounts. These daily deals can include home decor, electronics, and more. You can also check out our dedicated Target Prime Day deals post for more details. You can already find discounts on popular products such as the Google Nest Audio, Apple AirPods Pro, Beats by Dre products, Casper mattresses, and Ninja blenders.

Best Buy's Black Friday in July Sale takes place July 11 to 13. Best Buy's competing Prime Day discounts are open to all shoppers. However, My Best Buy rewards members may get exclusive savings or early access to deals. (Not a member? It's free to sign up.)
Best Buy's Black Friday in July Sale promotions often include up to 50% off gaming laptops, small kitchen appliances, and phones. We expect the same this year and will add more deals as they appear. So far, you can already find up to 46% off headphones from brands such as Bose, Sony, and Beats — as well as 20% off TVs and up to 13% off smartwatches. But, you'll likely see steeper discounts on the products that remain in stock closer to Prime Day.

Bed Bath & Beyond's Beyond Big Savings Event should happen simultaneously on Prime Day. Last year, shoppers could save 50% on everything.
The retailer also offered extra savings with a one-year Beyond+ membership for $29, which includes free standard shipping on all orders. You may be able to effectively make that Beyond+ membership free if Bed Bath & Beyond includes a $29 bonus card with sign-up like it did during previous sales.

Backcountry/Facebook
Outdoor gear retailer Backcountry held a 48-hour Flash Sale last year. There were discounts on Norrona, Salomon, Sorel, and other top brands.

We expect Backcountry to announce many of its best deals nearer to Prime Day, but you can shop up to 50% off thousands of items on Backcountry right now.

Last year, Chewy ran a Blue Box Event to coincide with Prime Day sales, offering steep discounts on pet products, including food, treats, supplies, and treatments.
