Next month, Amazon is giving us another chance to restock our tool bags or workshops without busting our budgets during the Prime Early Access Sale. This new shopping event gives Amazon Prime members an opportunity to get a jump start on holiday shopping with exclusive member savings. The 48-hour event will officially take place October 11 and 12, but many items are already on sale. To help get you shopping, I’ve highlighted some of the best deals on power tools, hand tools, lawn and garden equipment, and shop tools.

Remember that many deals are only available at specific times, often for an hour or less. You must have an Amazon Prime membership to save, but if you’re not a member yet, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial.

The Expert: As a thrifty bargain shopper, I always look forward to Prime Day and other Amazon sales. And as a hardcore DIYer currently renovating a 19th century fixer-upper and former construction business owner for more than 10 years, I’m especially interested in savings on tools, lawn and garden items, and other essentials. My background has given me ample opportunity over the years to use and evaluate a wide variety of tools.

Power Tool Deals

Power tools are a core component of any workshop or job site—but they can also be pricey, so don’t miss this opportunity to seize big savings on tools from names you trust, like Bosch, Craftsman, and DeWalt.

Hand Tool Deals

Hand tools might not be as expensive as power tools, but they can still be a financial investment that can easily add up if you want to keep your workshop well-stocked. Luckily, during the Prime Day Early Access Sale, everyone from carpenters to mechanics can find deals.

Lawn and Garden Deals

Summer is over, but keeping your lawn looking good is a year-round project. Fall means tackling leaf management tasks, among other lawn and garden care. The Black and Decker leaf blower lets you clear leaves quickly, and the Greenworks 19-inch cordless mower is a great electric alternative to gas-powered machines.

Workshop Tool Deals

Shop tools include a wide range of accessories and helpful items that keep your workspace clean, safe, and organized. I think every home or workshop should have at least one fire extinguisher, which literally saved my home from being destroyed by fire after our gas barbecue grill became engulfed in flames due to a mechanical malfunction.
