After covering Amazon Prime Day for over five years, I’ve learned a thing or two about how to shop it smartly.
I’ve also learned that Amazon sells way more than you might expect – from your favourite Redken shampoo to dishwasher tablets, method cleaning sprays to everyone’s favourite Italian spritz, and of course, the humble toilet roll.
Now that I’ve bought my first flat, I’m more conscious of what I’m spending. But with over a decade of shopping and writing under my belt, I’ve got a pretty good sense of what’s actually worth adding to your basket – and what’s just going to gather dust.
Shop these Amazon Prime Day deals while you can

This list isn’t full of flashy gadgets or impulse buys. It’s the practical stuff: micellar water, snacks, cleaning products, essentials you’ll use every day. Not the most glamorous, sure, but stocking up during Prime Day can save you a surprising amount – and cut down those last-minute supermarket dashes.
So, if you’re looking to make the most of the sales without wasting money, here are the things I genuinely think are worth buying.
My top Amazon Prime Day picks:
Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee Machine by De'Longhi
The Nespresso Vertuo Next by De'Longhi is a great Prime Day buy if you want barista-style coffee at home without the fuss. It’s compact, easy to use, and brews a range of coffee sizes – perfect for busy mornings or weekend treats. With a solid discount, it’s a smart investment that’ll save you money on takeaway coffees in the long run.
SodaStream Terra Sparkling Water Maker
The SodaStream Terra is one of those clever kitchen upgrades that actually pays off – especially during the Prime Day sale. It’s compact, easy to use, and cuts down on plastic bottles while letting you make sparkling water (and mixers) exactly how you like it.
Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Cherry 8 x 330 ml
Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Cherry (8 x 330ml) is a fizzy, cherry-flavoured soft drink with zero sugar and calories, offering a refreshing twist on the classic taste. It’s vegan-friendly, made with natural flavours and sweeteners, and currently available for around £3.30.
Fairy Non Bio Pods Washing Liquid Laundry Capsules
Fairy Non Bio Pods are a Prime Day essential if you want gentle, effective laundry care at a great price. They’re dermatologically tested, kind on sensitive skin, and still tough on stains – which is why they’ve been a staple in my cupboard for years. Stocking up during the sale means fewer last-minute supermarket runs and better value for money per wash.
Aperol Aperitivo 70CL
Aperol Aperitivo is one of those bottles that instantly makes your drinks feel a bit more special – and Prime Day is the perfect time to grab it for less. Whether you're mixing up a classic spritz or experimenting with summer cocktails, it’s a great staple to have on hand. It also makes a lovely gift, so it’s worth picking up while it’s discounted.
method Concentrated Laundry Detergent in Tropical Coconut Scent
Method’s concentrated laundry detergent delivers powerful cleaning at just 20°C, tackling tough stains, reviving colours, and reducing fabric bobbles. A small dose provides long-lasting fragrance, and when paired with matching fabric softeners, creates a harmonised scent experience. Made with creativity and care, it’s designed to uplift your laundry routine and your mood.
Andrex Family Soft Toilet Paper 24 Rolls
The Andrex Family Soft Toilet Paper 24-roll pack is one of those unglamorous but genuinely useful Prime Day buys. It’s soft, strong, and ideal for stocking up – especially if you’ve just moved or want to avoid those annoying last-minute supermarket runs. With a decent discount, it’s a smart way to save on something you’ll definitely use.
REDKEN All Soft Shampoo and Conditioner Set for Dry Hair, With Argan Oil
The REDKEN All Soft Shampoo and Conditioner Set is a brilliant Prime Day buy if your hair’s feeling dry or in need of a little TLC. Infused with argan oil, it leaves hair noticeably softer, shinier, and easier to manage – and it’s a salon-quality duo that usually doesn’t come cheap. If you’ve been eyeing it up, now’s the time to grab it while it’s on offer.

The Finish Ultimate Infinity Shine Dishwasher Tablets are a Prime Day essential if you want sparkling dishes with minimal effort. They tackle tough stains, leave glassware streak-free, and come in recyclable packaging – so they’re effective and a bit more eco-conscious too.

If you’re into skincare and want a salon-style treatment at home, this is a smart splurge while it’s on offer.
COLOR WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Spray
The COLOR WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Spray is a Prime Day favourite for good reason – it delivers sleek, frizz-free hair that genuinely lasts. I’ve used it before big events and humid days, and the results are consistently impressive, like a professional blow-dry in a bottle. If you want smooth, glossy hair without the salon price tag, now’s the time.
