Amazon recently officially announced the kick-off dates for their bumper Spring Sale 2025, which will run for a whole week from March 25 – 31. It's starting fairly soon, but the retailer is notorious for putting the best deals live early (especially during Prime Day sales), and it's a similar story again this year.
I've done some serious digging and found a selection of incredible deals that you'll absolutely want to check out right away before they expire. Without further ado, here are the best early Amazon Spring Sale deals I've found so far.
Audible Premium Plus: $0.99/Month for 3 Months
One of the biggest Amazon Spring Sale offers is already up for grabs. You can currently get three months of Audible Premium Plus for just $0.99 per month—a massive drop from the usual $14.95. That’s three audiobooks you get to keep forever, plus unlimited access to thousands more in Audible’s Plus catalog.
The deal is open to new and lapsed subscribers, and checking eligibility is easy—just log into Amazon’s Audible page, and if the offer appears, you’re in. Whether you want to binge a fantasy saga, catch up on a bestseller, or finally get through that non-fiction deep dive, this is the best way to start for almost nothing.
Pokémon TCG: Paradox Rift ETB; Iron Valiant Back In Stock
If you've been hunting for Iron Valiant Paradox Rift Elite Trainer Boxes, they're currently available at Amazon at just below retail price. Paradox Rift has been a bit of a rollercoaster for players and collectors. It doesn’t have the usual Pikachu/Charizard hype machine, but what it does have are some of the most meta-relevant cards in recent sets and artwork that absolutely slaps.
The pull rates? Not great. The chase cards? Expensive. The FOMO when Roaring Moon ex keeps dodging your packs? Very real. Iron Valiant ETB sits at $54 with a slight markdown, but honestly, just finding these in stock without a 50% markup is a win.
Final Fantasy I-VI Collection AE: Best Price Ever
The Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition has hit its lowest price ever, now available for $49.99 at Amazon—a better deal than even Black Friday. Originally released on October 8 for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 (fully compatible with PS5), this collection brings together the first six Final Fantasy games in beautifully refined form.
Square Enix has kept the iconic pixel art intact, enhancing it for modern screens without losing the series’ original charm. If you’ve been waiting to revisit these classics—or experience them for the first time—this is the best price yet.
Sunrise on the Reaping (A Hunger Games Novel)
Suzanne Collins’ new Hunger Games novel, Sunrise on the Reaping, is easily one of 2025’s most anticipated releases. It’s spent most of the year on Amazon’s best-sellers list, even breaking into the top five ahead of launch. Given the franchise’s track record—every Hunger Games book has been adapted for the big screen—it’s no surprise that a 2026 movie adaptation is already in the works.
The book is finally here, and Amazon is offering discounts on both the hardcover and Kindle editions. If you’re after something extra, Barnes & Noble and Target have exclusive editions with bonus content.
Empyrean Book 3: Onyx Storm
Rebecca Yarros’ Empyrean series has been a breakout hit, skyrocketing in popularity thanks to a mix of TikTok buzz and a compelling premise. Since its release in 2023, Fourth Wing has barely left Amazon’s top-sellers list, and its sequel, Iron Flame, followed suit. Even before launch, preorders for the latest entry, Onyx Storm, were among Amazon’s top-selling books of 2024.
Now that Onyx Storm is finally available, Amazon is offering discounts on both the hardcover and Kindle editions. If you’re new to the series, the first two books are also free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription for a limited time—making it the perfect moment to jump in.
Fire TV Stick 4K Max Sees a Big Discount—But Is It the Best Deal?
Amazon’s Fire Stick 4K Max is now $39.99 (down from $59.99), making it one of the best streaming device deals available—though it's the best price of 2025 so far, it's not quite its lowest ever price. It did dip to $34.99 during Prime Day 2024, so if you’re not in a rush, it may be worth waiting for another major sale. That said, with Wi-Fi 6 support and great performance for both game streaming and regular streaming, it’s still a solid buy.
The standard Fire Stick 4K is also discounted to $29.99 (from $49.99), though it previously hit $24.99 on Prime Day. If you need an upgrade now, these are good prices, but those looking for the absolute lowest price may want to hold off.
Maps of Misterra: Unique Strategy Game at a Huge Discount
If you’re into clever, unconventional board games, Maps of Misterra is worth checking out—especially at its current price. Typically around $30, Amazon has it for just $12.99, making this one of the best deals for a truly distinctive game.
In Maps of Misterra, players take on the role of cartographers exploring and mapping an uncharted island. You’ll start with a theory of what the island should look like, placing terrain tiles to match your vision. But exploration isn’t always precise—other players can overwrite your tiles, shifting the landscape until someone locks a piece in place.
Strategic terrain effects, like gaining a better vantage from mountains or traveling farther over steppe, add depth to the gameplay. If you’re after something that blends strategy with a unique theme, this is a great time to pick it up.
VARTA Longlife AA Batteries (100 Pack)
This is an excellent deal on a 100 pack of AA batteries, and basically means you won't have to purchase any again for a long time. You can secure the discount by setting up a Subscribe and Save order, knocking 30% off the price.
You can keep the S&S set up, or just cancel it afterwards as it won't affect your current order. Alternatively, you can take it set further and spend $50 on hundreds of batteries, and get $15 back in Amazon Credit ready for the Spring Sale starting next week, just use code STOCKUPSAVE for the deal.
Score a 27" QHD G-Sync Gaming Monitor for Under $100
If you’re after a budget-friendly gaming monitor, this 27” KTC gaming display is a steal at $92.99 on Amazon. To get the deal, just clip the $40 coupon on the product page and use code "05DMKTC38" for an extra $7 off at checkout.
With over 1,800 reviews averaging 4.4/5 stars and a Fakespot “B” rating, it punches well above its price. It even packs in gaming features you wouldn’t expect at this range, making it a solid pick for anyone looking to upgrade without breaking the bank.
LEGO Ideas: Vincent Van Gogh The Starry Night
LEGO has released plenty of impressive sets for adults in recent years—detailed, display-worthy builds designed to be as fun to assemble as they are to show off. One standout is the LEGO Ideas Starry Night set, a collaboration with The Museum of Modern Art that transforms Vincent van Gogh’s iconic painting into a striking 3D model.
Normally priced at $169.99, Amazon is offering a rare discount, bringing it down to $149.30. Deals on this set don’t come around often—the last time it dropped this low was nearly two years ago—so it’s a good opportunity to grab it for less. Once built, it measures about 19×15 inches and can even be hung on a wall, making it a unique blend of art and LEGO craftsmanship.
The Looney Tunes Complete Platinum Collection
Until The Day the Earth Blew Up, the Looney Tunes had never had a fully animated theatrical film—but if you were hoping to revisit the original series alongside the movie, things just got a little trickier. Over the weekend, Warner Bros. removed all episodes of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons from its Max streaming platform, leaving no subscription-based way to watch them.
That said, there are still options. Individual episodes, full seasons, and curated collections can be purchased on Apple TV and Prime Video. If you prefer a more permanent option, several DVD and Blu-ray collections featuring the original theatrical shorts are available on Amazon (and at a discount as well).
Samsung Pro Plus microSD Memory Card + Adapter, 512GB
RockPaperShotgun's top-rated Steam Deck SD card, the Samsung Pro Plus 512GB microSD, has already plunged to just $37.99—beating 2025’s previous best of $39.99—before the Spring Sale even begins. This is an outstanding deal on a card that delivers top-tier speeds and reliability, making it a perfect match for the Steam Deck. Samsung’s legacy in storage excellence spans iconic SSDs like the 870 Evo, 870 Qvo, and 990 Pro, so it’s no surprise they’ve nailed one of the best microSD cards for handheld gaming, too.
HOTO 25-in-1 Precision Screwdriver Set
The HOTO 25-in-1 Precision Screwdriver Set is down to $30.03 with the listed coupon at Amazon, a solid drop from its usual $48.99. It’s a well-designed tool for electronics repairs and DIY projects, with dual torque modes—electric for precision work and manual for extra power when needed. Whether you’re tweaking a laptop, fixing a phone, or working on a drone, this set has the right bits to get the job done.
PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – Astro Bot Bundle
If you're looking to pick up a PS5 in 2025, the PlayStation 5 Slim Astro Bot bundle is one of the best offers out there. Right now, the disc model is available for $449.99 at Amazon, while the digital edition is $399.99.
What makes this bundle worth considering is the inclusion of Astro Bot at no extra cost—a full $70 game bundled in for free. And it’s not just any game. Astro Bot was one of 2024’s biggest hits, winning Best Game at The Game Awards and earning a reputation as a must-play for platforming fans. If you needed another reason to grab a PS5, this might be it.
Meta Quest 3 512GB + Batman Arkham Shadow + $50 Amazon Credit
The Meta Quest 3 512GB VR headset has a wonderful deal going at Amazon in the early Spring Sale. For $499.99, you’ll get not just the headset, but also $50 in bonus Amazon credit, a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, and a three-month trial to Meta Quest+. The credit should apply automatically at checkout, making this one of the better offers we’ve seen for Meta’s latest VR headset.
Anker USB C to USB C Cable (Two Pack)
Anker’s 240W USB-C to USB-C cable is down to $9.99 for a two-pack (was $15.99), making it a solid pick for fast, reliable charging. It can power up a 16-inch MacBook Pro to 42% in just 30 minutes and works seamlessly with a range of devices, from iPads to Samsung phones. Built with a double-braided nylon exterior, it’s designed to handle daily wear and tear with a 10,000-bend lifespan.
The Lord of the Rings Deluxe Illustrated Box Set
Here’s a great deal for Lord of the Rings fans. The illustrated hardcover box set of J.R.R. Tolkien’s trilogy is down to $169.07 at Amazon, and tremendously close to lowest price it’s ever been (~$168). That’s a steep drop from its $325 MSRP.
This set includes three high-quality hardcovers in a deluxe slipcase, featuring full-color illustrations by Alan Lee, the artist behind much of the concept design for Peter Jackson’s film adaptations. It’s not a small purchase, but for collectors and Tolkien fans, it’s a stunning edition at a rare discount.
