Best Costco deals to compete with Amazon Prime Day 2025: My favorite sales so far

When is October Prime Day 2025? 

This year, October Prime Day will run from Tuesday, Oct. 7 through Wednesday, Oct. 8. It will be a two-day sale, compared to four days for July 

Does Costco also hold a sale for Prime Day? 

Costco doesn’t hold a specific sale event to compete with the October Prime Big Deal Days sale. In July, it held a Member Savings Days event the same week as Prime Day. But you can expect to find the store’s usual monthly price markdowns during this time.

How did we choose these Costco 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 actually on sale and how frequently it drops. 

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