Hello, my friends!




Amazon’s October Prime Day, called Prime Big Deal Days, is just around the corner—on October 8 and 9. If you’re anything like me, you love a good deal, especially when it’s something practical, stylish, or just plain fun! I’ve rounded up a few must-haves that I think you’ll enjoy, whether you’re looking to treat yourself to some quality skincare, stylish footwear, or handy technology that makes life easier. Prime Day is the perfect excuse to invest in yourself!


1. Skincare That Treats You Right

You know how much I love good skincare. Prime Day is a wonderful time to treat yourself to those luxury items that keep our skin looking its best. I’m always on the lookout for products that hydrate and smooth, especially ones packed with powerful ingredients like collagen, which helps maintain that youthful glow we all want to keep.

What I’m Eyeing:

  • Algenist GENIUS Liquid Collagen Essence – This product is a game-changer for hydration and elasticity. It’s infused with plant-based collagen and other nourishing ingredients, making it a fantastic choice for revitalizing skin and boosting radiance.

2. Ballet Flats: The "It" Shoe of the Season

Ballet flats are having a moment right now, and it's easy to see why—they're stylish, versatile, and perfect for just about any occasion. But let’s be honest: most ballet flats aren’t known for their comfort or support. That’s where Vionic comes in. Known for their foot-friendly design, Vionic’s shoes give you the best of both worlds—style and support.

What I’m Loving:

  • Vionic Women’s Caroll – These ballet flats combine on-trend style with the comfort and arch support we need for all-day wear. You won’t have to sacrifice comfort for fashion with these beauties!

3. It’s Time to Try Alexa

If you haven’t ventured into smart home technology yet, now’s the time—especially for us over 50! An Amazon Alexa device isn’t just a luxury, it’s a necessity. Not only can it help you update your grocery list with just your voice, but it can even assist in an emergency. It’s like having a personal assistant right in your home, always ready to lend a hand.

What’s on My List:

  • Amazon Echo Show 8 – With a screen for video calls and voice-activated commands, this device is a must-have. Whether you’re managing your daily tasks or looking out for your safety, Alexa makes life easier.

4. I’m Finally Ready to Get a Vitamix

After years of buying “affordable” blenders that barely last or can’t handle the job, I’m ready to invest in something that really works. The Vitamix is known for its durability and power, and I’ve heard nothing but great things. Whether it’s smoothies, soups, or even homemade nut butters, this blender can do it all—and do it well.

What I’m Eyeing:

  • Vitamix 5200 Blender – This high-performance blender is built to last, and with its powerful motor, it’s perfect for everything from green smoothies to hot soups. No more replacing cheap blenders every couple of years—this is the real deal!




5. Books, Glorious Books!

You know I’m always reading something new, and Prime Big Deal Days are a reader’s paradise! Whether you prefer paperbacks, eBooks, or even audiobooks, there’s sure to be a deal that lets you indulge in a good story without breaking the bank.

My Prime Pick:

  • Kindle Paperwhite – I’ve had my eye on this for a while now—it’s so easy on the eyes, and it holds all the books I could ever want!




There’s no better time than Prime Big Deal Days on October 8 and 9 to treat yourself to some quality products that enhance your everyday life. Whether it’s luxurious skincare, stylish shoes, helpful technology, or a trusty kitchen companion, these deals are too good to miss!


If you find a great deal, let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear what you’re excited about. Happy shopping, my friends!


Stay sensational!


🤍, Lois
