Amazon Prime Day, the online giant’s largest sales event of the year, is on. Despite the name, Prime Day is actually a two day event, running from June 21 through June 22. For those two days — and while supplies last — all sorts of great products from popular brands will go on sale across all of Amazon’s sales categories.

There are deals on Amazon products (of course), deals on TVs, deals on streaming sticks and media boxes, deals on kitchen appliances such as the Instant Pot, deals on dental care products and whitening kits, deals on men’s fashions, deals on … well, you get the point. There are a lot of Amazon deals.

But it’s not just Amazon offering deals. Walmart’s own competing Prime Day sale is called Deals for Days, and runs through June 23. Best Buy is having a big sale too, as is Kohl’s, Costco and Target. Even online pet retailer Chewy is getting in the act. And you don’t need to be an Amazon Prime member to shop these deals.

In short: If you’re in the market for just about anything, these next few days are a good time to shop.
