10 small businesses to shop now on Amazon for special Prime Day discounts

— Recommendations are independently chosen by Reviewed’s editors. Purchases you make through our links may earn us a commission.

In case you didn't know, Amazon Prime Day is coming. The massive shopping extravaganza will begin on Tuesday, October 13 and run for 48 hours. It's a little later this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but you'll still be getting the same incredible price drops on top-rated products. Plus, there's another way you can get additional savings this go around: supporting small businesses.

There are hundreds of small businesses that sell their products on Amazon, and if you spend $10 at select small businesses up until Monday, October 12 (the day before Prime Day), you'll get a $10 credit you can use towards a Prime Day purchase. That's like getting free money for something you were going to buy anyway. You do need to be a Prime member to get this discount, but you need to be one to shop the sale event. So you might as well activate your membership now, or nab that 30-day free trial.

There are a ton of small businesses included in this promotion, so to help you out, we've picked out 10 products with hundreds (sometimes thousands) of reviews that are worth your money. Plus, each is more than $10, so you're guaranteed to get the credit for Prime Day.
