Lightning Deals are exclusive promotions that have limited inventory and only last a few hours. In other words, once the on-page timer runs out or the product sells out, the discount is over. These deals are incredibly steep — we’re talking up to 70% off — but the key is to act fast before they’re gone.
This kind of time sensitivity can lead to impulse purchases on things you may not need (or may not be the highest quality), but we don’t want you to get caught up in the frenzy.
That is why our deal-finding experts worked rigorously to find the very best deals in Amazon’s Prime Day Lightning Deals section. We only recommend the products that our editors love and/or our experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute have tested.
We updated this guide with fresh deals as of TK p.m. ET, July TK, 2025. Hit “save” at the top of this page to bookmark the best Lightning Deals.
