If the start of a new season has you itching to upgrade your home and wardrobe, you're in luck. Amazon's second-ever Big Spring Sale is still running through March 31 with deep discounts across seasonal shopping categories. But with so many savings events expected this year, our shopping pros are here to help you determine which deals are actually worth buying now... and which ones are worth holding out for steeper savings in the future.

Head Straight to the Big Spring Sale

Similar to last year's event, the biggest deals we're seeing from Amazon's Big Spring Sale span categories like patio furniture, beauty essentials, spring cleaning tools, spring fashion and more. We've been tracking deals since the sale was announced last week, which include up to 50% off Good Housekeeping Institute-tested brands like Levi's, Estee Lauder and Apple. Now that official deals have dropped, we're seeing Prime Day-level discounts on coveted items like Dyson vacuums and Stanley tumblers.

Just note that now isn't the best time to buy luggage; the prices and markdowns in this category is pretty soft compared to other sales like Prime Day or Black Friday. As always, we'll be sure to keep you updated on current deals until Amazon's Big Spring Sale comes to an end on March 31.

What is the Amazon Big Spring Sale?

Amazon's Big Spring Sale event offers shoppers a chance to shop deals on seasonal items like outdoor furniture, spring fashion and household cleaning products. Our shopping editors found the most worthy markdowns across all of Amazon's shopping categories, including home, beauty, fashion and even pet essentials.

When is the Amazon Big Spring Sale?

This year, Amazon's Big Spring Sale runs from March 25 through March 31. Amazon Prime Day typically takes place in July, so the Big Spring Sale offers an earlier chance to stock up on everyday essentials and invest in home upgrades. And unlike Prime Day, the sale runs for six days instead of just two — giving you even more opportunities to shop.
