Take a pro-tip from GQ Recommends' professional shoppers: Amazon may have the best deals 99% of the time on Prime Day, but Prime Day competitors bring some real treasures for that other 1%. This time around, retailers like Walmart and Best Buy are actually beating Amazon's prices on hot-ticket items like new MacBook Air laptops. GQ favorites like Kiehl's are offering site-wide sales you can't find elsewhere. For only the price of an extra browser tab, you can score some discounts that Amazon can't match—or steals on products that Amazon doesn't even offer.

Have you been eyeing a new tablet? Or maybe a new computer? Perhaps some spa-level skincare upgrades? Great. In scouting for the best Prime Day competitor deals, we kept it to the cream of the other-guy crop, and put them all here, in one easy-to-reference place. We'll keep updating this space, too, as fresh deal crop up.

Amazon's big-box nemeses also go hard on tech, and don't have in-house Alexa's to offload, making for a broader selection. In other words, the best deals from Prime Day competitors tend to be the best tech deals. You'll find Apple iPads and headphones at sweet prices, but the headliner here is that Walmart introduced an ultra-rare discount on the Nintendo Switch Lite. Good for a gift, great for yourself.
