On Tuesday and Wednesday, Amazon’s concocted shopping holiday will bring markdowns on everything from tech gear, to style accessories, to kitchen tools, and even holiday gifts. (No, it’s not too early.)

A lot of the early deals we’re seeing are junk, but our experts have meticulously combed through every one of them to find actually good discounts on tried-and-tested Wirecutter picks. We’ll be helping you cut through all of the noise next week, but in the meantime, here are the deals we’re excited about so far.
