Halloween is right around the corner, and I usually wait until the last minute to buy candy. This year, though, I’m getting ahead of the trick-or-treat rush—and discovered a nice perk: Some of the most popular Halloween treats go on sale for Amazon Prime Day.

M&M’s, Snickers, Swedish Fish, and Starburst are among the picks marked down on October 6 and 7. If you’re buying anyway, you might as well buy now. Here are the Halloween candies I’m adding to my cart.

Always a Halloween favorite, M&M's are the perfect candy to add to your assortment this year. This variety pack includes 18 packs of original milk chocolate, peanut, and peanut butter M&M's.

Available in a variety of fruity flavors (watermelon, blue raspberry, strawberry, and cherry), Ring Pops are a tried-and-true crowd-pleaser. This 30-pack is currently over 30% off for Prime Day, making it a great time to stock up.

Ninety pieces of Airheads for just $14 sounds like a deal to us. This variety box includes cherry, watermelon, blue raspberry, grape, orange, and white mystery flavors.

If your go-to candies are fruity and chewy, you'll want this variety pack of Skittles and Starburst. The pack comes with Original Skittles, Wild Berry Skittles, Original Starburst, and Starburst Fave Reds, all in fun size.

If sour candies are more your vibe, opt for this variety pack instead. It includes full-size packs of Sour Skittles in addition to the original and wild berry flavors. Plus, you still get Starburst Fave Reds and original flavors.

Chocolate lovers will find their favorite candy bar in this mix. This 75-piece pack includes Snickers, Twix, Milky Way, and Milk Chocolate M&M’s.

Sour Patch Kids and Swedish Fish aren’t just the best movie candies; they deserve a spot in a trick-or-treat bag, too. This assortment includes 15 boxes of Swedish Fish, Sour Patch Kids, and Sour Patch Kids Watermelon.

They may just be sugar-filled sticks, but there’s no denying that they still deserve a top spot in your Halloween rotation. This pack of 85 Pixy Stix includes grape, Maui Punch, cherry, and orange flavors.

This variety pack features all the sweet, tangy candies you love. With 75 pieces, you get Nerds, Trolli Crawlers, SweeTarts, Laffy Taffy, and Nerds Gummy Clusters.
