Are deals really better during Amazon sales? 

Deals on flagship Amazon products are typically the best during Amazon’s own sales. These sales are also a great opportunity to scoop up decent savings across dozens of categories. Keep in mind that you’ll be able to shop at plenty of other retailers during the same period as Amazon’s sale as retailers look to compete. 

Will other retailers offer spring savings? 

Yes, other major retailers will likely offer their discounts via competing sales. Often, retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and more directly match (or sometimes outdo) Amazon’s pricing during sale events. It’s not unusual to see the same products on sale for the same price across many retailers. I expect many competing sale events to precede, overlap, or follow Amazon’s spring sale. 

How did we choose these anti-Amazon Spring Sale deals?

ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy — devices and products we desire, need or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is on sale and how frequently it drops. 

We also reviewed customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we recommend. Our recommendations may also be based on our testing — in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter.
