Target vs. Amazon Prime Day: Which Sale Should You Shop?

Image used with permission by copyright holder

Historically, Amazon has better Prime Day discounts than any other Prime Day sales. But now that almost every retailer is online and offering deals, that has begun to change.

That being said, there are likely to be some key differences between these two sales. Amazon has an edge over Target in some of the more obvious categories like 4K TV deals and Apple discounts.

Al-in-all, if you only have the capacity to shop one sale on Prime Day, Amazon is going to have more to browse. But if you’re looking for Prime Day beauty deals and electric toothbrush sales, Target’s sale is worth a look. They will also have some great Prime Day Lego deals considering their massive section of popular toys.

Amazon Price Matching

So Amazon, being the retail giant that it is, will often automatically drop prices on products when other retailers do. So for some of the most popular categories like TVs, gaming consoles, and headphones, if Target has a discount, Amazon probably has the same one.

Should you shop Prime Day sales or wait for Black Friday?

We’re most likely looking at a long stretch of discounts leading up to the holiday season, so any rational person would assume there’s no need for urgency here. That being said, getting your shopping done early can help guarantee you get all of your best gifts in time for Christmas.

Another thing to take into consideration is that some retailers might not have prepared enough stock for what awaits them this buying season. We saw this happen with PlayStation 5 pre-orders and Xbox Series X pre-orders in September, and we’ll likely see it again in November as Black Friday and Cyber Monday arrive.

All in all, if you’re hoping to take advantage of Nintendo Switch deals and AirPods sales, historically, you should jump on the first discount you find, no matter where it is.

However, if for any reason you miss these deals, there are always Black Friday Target deals to look forward to.

Best PlayStation Plus Deals: Save on Essential, Plus and Premium

While the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 are excellent consoles, especially for those who don't want to invest in a gaming PC, you tend to lose out on a lot if you don't have one of Sony's online subscriptions. You see, a PlayStation Plus (PS Plus) subscription offers, is access to online multiplayer, and without it, you can't connect to online servers and play with other folks, which is a bit frustrating. Luckily, a PS Plus membership does offer some additional features, such as free games every month and access to some older PS games, all of which depend on which of the three tiers you subscribe to: Essential, Extra, and Premium.
What is PlayStation Plus?
Along with online multiplayer and other in-game network features, a PlayStation Plus Essential membership grants you access to exclusive discounts and other promotions. Perhaps the most notable benefit of PlayStation Plus is that every month, Sony gives subscribers one PlayStation 5 and two PlayStation 4 games that are free to download. You have one month to add these free PlayStation Plus games to your library.

After that, these titles are yours to keep so long as you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription. The free-to-download games are generally pretty good (they are often some of the best PS4 games that have been out for a little while), and these alone justify the cost of PS Plus even for people who don't do a lot of online gaming.
