Prime Day is back. Amazon's signature summer sales event takes place now through June 26 this year. While several retailers will capitalize on the deals event to inflate prices and make more money, some retailers will actually discount their merchandise. Prime Day is a good chance to take advantage of those purchase-worthy deals floating around on the internet. But you'll need some help finding those, won't you?

Best Prime Day smartwatch and health tracker deals FAQsWhen is Amazon Prime Day? This year, Amazon Prime Day runs from Tuesday, June 23, to Friday, June 26. How did we choose these Amazon Prime Day deals?I spend lots of time writing about health trackers, sleep monitors, and wellness technology. I also think most of these sales events are marginally helpful for shoppers. It is more an opportunity for big retailers to reignite interest in their own products (and sell inventory) than it is an opportunity for shoppers to get good deals. Still, good deals exist during these events, so I'll tell you about them when I see them. And if you just so happen to be in the market for one of these devices, I'll lead you in the right direction. I am not going to include a product I cannot vouch for, because I'm not interested in wasting your money (or writing about something bad). I use established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. As someone with great familiarity with these products, I also remember the prices of these products and when they've gone historically lower or higher. This helps me determine if it's actually worth buying. If it's not, I'll tell you so. Can you use FSA/HSA funds to buy a fitness tracker? Yes, though it depends on the wearable. Oura Rings, Apple Watches, Pixel Watches, and Fitbits, and Galaxy Watches are all available to purchase with FSA or HSA funds.What are the best Prime Day deals so far?ZDNET's experts are searching through Prime Day sales to find the best discounts by category.
