Amazon recently confirmed that itsBig Spring Sale event will return this spring. The seasonal event begins next week on Tuesday, March 25, but you can already shop savings on top tech, home, and more at other major retailers, like Best Buy, Walmart andTarget.While Amazon is perhaps most notorious for its member-exclusive Prime Day events, the e-commerce giant branched out to a larger consumer base in 2024 for the first annual Big Spring Sale, a multiple-day savings event open to everyone. As expected, other retailers jumped on board with competing sales events, offers, and discounts, making the month of March a shopper's paradise. I expect this year to be the same, especially following Walmart and Target's confirmation of their own sale events.Here are our favorite anti-Amazon Spring Sale deals that you can shop right now -- including on tech ranging from smartphones to TVs, to accessories and beyond. And don't worry; we'll update this frequently with the best offers I see for the rest of this month.Shop early Amazon Spring Sale deals Shop deals at Best BuyShop deals at WalmartOur favorite anti-Amazon Spring Sale 2025 deals: Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and moreApple Watch Series 10 (GPS 42mm): $329 (save $70 at Walmart): Apple's newest base model watch is finally seeing its lowest price.

These sales are also a great opportunity to scoop up decent savings across dozens of categories. Keep in mind that you'll be able to shop at plenty of other retailers during the same period as Amazon's sale as retailers look to compete.Will other retailers offer spring savings?Yes, other major retailers will likely offer their discounts via competing sales. Often, retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and more directly match (or sometimes outdo) Amazon's pricing during sale events. It's not unusual to see the same products on sale for the same price across many retailers. I expect many competing sale events to precede, overlap, or follow Amazon's spring sale.How did we choose these anti-Amazon Spring Sale deals?ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy -- devices and products we desire, need or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is on sale and how frequently it drops.We also reviewed customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we recommend. Our recommendations may also be based on our testing -- in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter.Looking for the next best product? Get expert reviews and editor favorites withZDNET Recommends.
