We love a good sale, and Amazon offers up some of the best. Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days runs through Oct. 9 at 11:59 p.m. PT and is a two-day event that offers discounts on Amazon devices, kitchen equipment, tablets, Apple products, robot vacuums, and plenty more.

The event has officially ended, but some of the best deals are still live. And that includes some free offers you can score.

Free is everyone's favorite price. If you're wondering how you'll pass the time this fall and winter, Amazon has some free entertainment offers in store during October Prime Day including audiobooks, music streaming, and Kindle books. Here's how to score these free deals.

Best free reading deal

Why we like it

Free access to Kindle books is truly one of life's greatest hacks. If you're new to Kindle Unlimited, sign up today to get 30 days of free access to millions of Kindle books, saving a total of $11.99 on list price.

Amazon's Kindle Unlimited program includes over 4 million Kindle titles, including some bestsellers and popular series. Not only does the plan include unlimited reading, you also get access to thousands of audiobooks and the pleasure of browsing magazines.

If you don't already have a Kindle, check out the Mashable guide to the best Kindles to help you decide which model will suit you best.

Best free music deal

Why we like it

Music with no ads? It doesn't get any better. Amazon typically offers new subscribers a free one-month trial of the ad-free Amazon Music Unlimited, but as a treat during October Prime Day, you can sign up for three months of free access. However, this deal is limited to Prime members only, so you'll want to be signed up and logged in to grab this deal.

Amazon Music Unlimited comes with total control of what music you stream and when, all with no ads. You'll get unlimited access to listening while offline or skipping songs. The subscription also includes access to ad-free podcasts.

Best free audiobook deal

Why we like it

Audiobooks can really save the day. Whether you're stuck sitting in traffic, out walking the dog, or recovering from a cold, tuning into an audiobook can be the perfect way to relax and tune into something other than your own life. During October Prime Day, Amazon is offering a free 30-day trial to Audible, which typically costs $7.95 per month. The trial means you'll have free access to the Audible catalog of audiobooks and podcasts.

Best free phone deal

iPhone 16 with Boost Mobile plan
$0.01 at Amazon
$829.99 Save $829.98

Why we like it

OK OK, this isn't technically free, but you can get a new iPhone 16 for one single penny during Prime Day. That's basically a free phone. The only catch is that you have to sign up for a Boost Mobile plan, which is $65 per month.
