Amazon’s second Prime Day event of the year, Prime Big Deal Days, is well underway, offering you yet another chance to save on everything from headphones to robovacs in the run-up to Black Friday. And while many of this year’s best deals are reserved for 4K TVs, laptops, and other big-ticket items, there are still a number of great bargains available for anyone who’s looking to spend under a hundred bucks.
Per usual, this year’s sub-$100 Prime Day deals cover the entire spectrum of tech. Obviously, Amazon is discounting its own devices — including its colorful Echo Pop and latest Echo Show 5 — but it’s also dropping the price of 2-in-1 chargers, Xbox controllers, and wireless earbuds throughout the two-day sales event.
Below, we’ve rounded up a selection of our favorite deals for under $100, juuuust in case you’re looking to keep your spending in check.
