Prime Big Deal Days Prepper Finds

There are some big deals on prepping supplies and survival gear already live and in store for the third annual Prime Big Deal Days, running October 7-8, 2025.

Wait, didn’t we just go through Prime Day back in July? We sure did! Got some great savings on some survival gear we had our eye on, too!

And apparently, Amazon just wants to dish out more savings because this Prime-only sale event is on again this year after its debut in 2023. It does fill in the gap between Prime Day and the upcoming holiday season well, though. My young kids have already started cruising through the Walmart and Target toy catalogs, so it’s not lost on me that we’re not far from the holidays.

But, don’t just grab early Christmas presents – check out the options for your survival kits as well!

Prime Big Deal Days deals will be updated throughout the sale period, October 7-8, 2025. When you buy through our links, we may earn a commission. Disclosure»

What are Prime Big Deal Days?

We’re not quite sure. We know that Prime Day is a manufactured holiday used to liquidate a lot of Amazon’s overstock, but this Prime members-only sale seems to be just a sale gearing up for the holidays. Last year, it lasted two days, and this year will be the same.

Honestly, the name could use some work. “Prime Big Deal Days” is clunky and hard to say, but we won’t argue with the deals they have slated. You’ll need to be signed up as an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of the deals.

Not all of the ‘deals’ are actually that great. That’s why we look at the best deals on prepping supplies and survival gear, and then make sure that they are either at or close to the lowest price of the year.

Best Prepper Prime Big Deal Days Deals

The categories that the deals are focused on can vary, but the ones that are most applicable to prepping and survival fall into only a few.

Some of the key categories include:

Some of the biggest deals are in Amazon-branded products or ‘Amazon Basics’.

Solar Panels, Power Packs, & Security

Electronics are always a huge focus for Big Deals Day (and other big sales holidays), but that doesn’t just mean TVs and game consoles are on sale.

Power Banks

Charge your phone and other devices with power banks. There are a few really inexpensive power banks, but they are from brands we don’t recognize and haven’t tested. Stick with tried-and-true brands when it comes to batteries to avoid fire risk, overstated storage capacity, and other quality issues.

Power Stations

When you want to power something larger than your phone, you’ll need some serious battery storage. While power stations continue to get cheaper and cheaper over the years, they are also best to pick up when they are on huge sales:

Solar Panels

Batteries

Regular Alkaline or rechargeable batteries are always a deal for these types of sales, and it’s a good time to stock up before the holidays.

Home Security

The Blink system is fantastic and can be easily turned into a cloud/hybrid system simply by plugging a formatted USB drive into the Sync Module. Learn more about why we like them in our home security cameras review.

Some of these were Early Deals that we caught, but we’re glad they continue through the actual sale days since the discounts are so steep.

Outdoor Survival Deals

Outdoor survival is a small but gear-intensive part of prepping (unless you are into primitive bushcraft), and there are some good deals on some of our top picks this year.

This list may grow/shrink as we can’t show them until they are live, but they are also limited quantities, so we’ll continue to update them to be current and add their sale pricing when we’re allowed.

Survival Movies & Prepper TV Shows

Amazon Prime offers more than free shipping- it also offers a way to stream (many for free) some prepping and survival-related TV shows.

They have most of their movie assortment on sale, so if there are any movies you’ve been looking to see, now may be the time to pick them up (or rent them).

Several titles from our large survival movie list are offered, so it’s a good chance to catch up on any that you’ve been meaning to check out.

They also have their channel subscriptions and even some TV show series on sale. Sales on these are rare, so you can check out our favorite prepping and survival TV shows to see if there are series you want to pick up.

Food Storage Deals

Whether you’re stashing food away or creating a sustainable garden, there are some good deals over the course of Prime Big Deal Days.

Emergency Food Storage

Augason Farms

The top value from our emergency food supplier review has most of their products with massive discounts for this sale, with most of them at the lowest price of the year.

Day 2 updates on Augason Farms are live.

Food Preservation & Tools

These are some of the best deals around and may end up back-ordered or out of stock as the sale goes on.

Medical Supplies & First Aid

Everyone needs first aid supplies, so seeing some good sales in this area is always nice. Over 21% of preppers have a physical limitation, medical condition, or disability to contend with, so making sure medical needs are met is at the forefront of their preparedness plans.

Home Medical Supplies

First Aid

CBRN Deals

CBRN (also known as NBC) gear is very niche, focused on a subset of less likely preparedness scenarios. Still, because of their massive impact, many preppers choose to prepare for these dire events that include EMPs, nuclear attacks, chemical weapons, and deadly pandemics. Finding sales on the gear is crucial because it can be costly to prepare for these events.

Other Retailer Sales

Amazon leads the way with these sales they’ve conjured up, but just like Prime Day, other retailers follow suit. Many brick-and-mortar stores offer a sale during the same period, and usually give them better names than ‘Prime Big Deal Days’.

Just like Prime Big Deal Days, these sales are typically more online-based and last a few days. You’ll want to check them out in the same areas for any gear you may need to fill out your preparedness plans.

  • Walmart Hot Deals – Walmart has a huge range of deals running at the same time. I’m picking up a Lego set for my youngest to get a jump on Christmas shopping.
  • Target Circle Week – Running a whole week, they have a few heavily discounted finds.
  • Temu Week – I haven’t bought anything from Temu, but I know plenty of people who have. They are having a sale, but I won’t be checking it out.
  • TikTok’s Deal For You Days – Like Temu, it’s going to be a bunch of Chinese stuff.

Early Deals

Amazon always teases its big sales by starting them early, and this year was no exception. There were some solid early deals, but now that the main sale has gone live, they’re all over.

Check back next year for more early deals to beat the rush and stockouts.

The Final Word

We hope everyone had a great September and is in good health heading into the holidays. There are plenty of great Prime Big Deal Days prepper deals this year, and we hope that by making this list, we can help you knock out some early holiday shopping or shore up some survival kits so you can get back to enjoying what you love.
