October Prime Day is not messing around with the deals. We've seen record-low prices on everything from top-of-the-line Bose headphones to portable power stations and plenty in between. But if you're shopping the sale for gift-worthy items, Amazon just added a new category for gift card deals, and there are some real gems in the mix, especially for entertainment and dining out. We're seeing plenty of $50 gift cards being sold for $40 on everything from clothing to treats to movie tickets. Here are some of the best on offer.

Why we like it

We're just days away from the release of Tron: Ares and if you're not in the mood to pay full price of a movie ticket, snag this October Prime Day deal on a Fandango e-gift card. The $50 e-gift card is on sale for only $40 for Amazon Prime members. Plus, since it lands in your email, you won't have to wait around for a doorstep delivery. Remember, gift cards don't expire so if a probably not-so-great Disney sequel isn't your thing, save the gift card for another new release.

Amazon's major sale in November is their Black Friday programming. That makes October Prime Day the last Prime Day event of the year, following July's Prime Day.
