(Picture: Metro/Amazon) If you’re not already, it’s well worth signing up, as you can enjoy free next-day delivery all year round across millions of products, and of course, access to sales coming up in October. We’ve heard it straight from the source that home and kitchen essentials for autumn entertaining, decor to get your space feeling seasonal, and plenty of early Halloween prep are set to be slashed in price. That’s not all however, there’ll be loads of beauty and self-care deals to snap up, which can give you a pampering treat or a headstart on Christmas shopping. It’s never too early. Big-name brands are set to take part, with the likes of ghd, Braun, Philips, Shark and Lego expected to feature in the sale, so if you’ve been eyeing up a new hair tool, a robot vacuum or an early gift for a Lego-obsessed kid in your life, this is the perfect opportunity. Louise was a massive fan of this ghd hair dryer when she gave it a whirl. (Picture: Metro/Amazon) We’ve got our eye on the ghd Speed Ionic Hair Dryer, in the hopes it will be discounted on the day. Metro’s shopping contributor Louise Whitbread had high praise for the device that cut her hair drying time down to just a few minutes in the morning. ‘It’s much slimmer than ghd’s cult favourite ghd Helios hairdryer and cool-to-touch, no matter how hot the air gets. There’s also a feature called ‘memory mode’, so the tool remembers the last setting you used. Genius’ she said.

So if you’ve been eyeing up the bestselling Sage Barista Express, Bean to Cup Machine, October could be your lucky day. Currently retailing for a huge £629.25, this could be your chance to see hundreds reduced. It’s an impressive bit of kit with an integrated burr grinder with 16 grind settings, powerful milk steam wand, optimal brewing temperatures and delicious cups of coffee with every use. If you’re beauty obsessed and need a retinol top-up, our favourite is Medik8 Crystal Retinal, which we’re hoping is also on offer come October. Beloved by the beauty community, it’s formulated with 0.01% stabilised retinal, a powerful derivative of vitamin A, and helps to minimise fine lines and wrinkles, as well as plump and firm the skin while you sleep. Now’s your chance to start making incredible coffee from the comfort of your own home.
