Best mattress deals for Amazon Prime Big Deals Day 2023: Offers to expect on Simba, Emma and more

Nabbing a bargain is one of the thrills about shopping. After all, why pay more for something when you don’t have to?

Especially when that something is a high-ticket item like TVs, laptops and essential household furniture like mattresses.

Never underestimate the power of a good mattress. It’s the first step to getting decent quality sleep, which is important for your general health and wellbeing. Banking great sleep every night means you’ll wake up refreshed and energised, ready to take on your daily schedule.

It’s a myth that mattresses should be replaced every seven years; the truth is that you should look for a new one as soon as your current model stops doing its job. Luckily there are a host of new-gen mattresses that are designed to go the distance, which means you shouldn’t need to replace them as often.

Without exception, sales are the best times to splash out on a new mattress, which usually runs into the triple figures. While the January sales have been and gone and there are still a few weeks to go until November’s Black Friday extravaganza, there is hope on the horizon: Amazon’s October sale known as Prime Big Deal Days is coming.

An annual sale run by the internet’s best-known retailer, Amazon has been putting on a special sale for its Prime members since 2015. The first event was a one-day gig, and although proceeding sales spanned two days the singular version of the sale name has stuck around.

What kind of mattress deals can we expect?

Historically Amazon has always delivered solid discounts on mattresses, from coiled spring models to bed-in-a-box brands. We’ve seen price tags sliced in half with discounts as low as 50 per cent or more in some cases. Simba and Emma usually offer the biggest deals, but brands like Silentnight, Inofia and HiGRID have been known to join the slumber party too.
