October ushers in fall, bringing cooler temps, changing leaves and — our personal favorite — the start of holiday sales season.
Last month, we saw Shop TODAY readers applying their savvy shopping skills during Amazon's Prime Early Access Sale, scoring steep discounts on smart home products and luxury beauty favorites. And as early Black Friday deals at major retailers began rolling out, and gift guide season is officially upon us, our carts were stocked with fall fashion essentials and tech steals, too.
It's not too late to grab these favorites. Keep scrolling to see the finds that made the Shop TODAY readers' bestsellers list in October.
