Although there are a few early Prime Day deals leaking out already, Amazonโs 10th Prime Day event kicks off at 3am EST on July 16th, and ends at 3am EST on July 17th.
Definitely not! The majority of Prime Day deals will start on July 16th, but others will begin on the 17th.
In addition, there will be many โLimited Dealsโ popping up throughout the event. These special deals feature extra-low prices, but are only active for a few hours and have limited supply. If you find a great Limited Deal item, jump on it before it disappears!
Prime Day is known for its impressive discounts across all categories on thousands of items available on Amazon, but only shoppers with an active Amazon Prime subscription have access to these special sales.
In addition to the big Prime Day deals, Prime members also have access to Prime Video (normally $8.99,) free shipping on thousands of Prime items, free video games via Prime Gaming, and more.
Brand-new subscribers can test out Prime with a free 30-day membership, and if youโre a fan, Amazon Prime is offered for $14.99 per month, or $139 for a yearly subscription.
Yes, because only Prime members have access to Amazonโs Prime Day sales.
For starters, sign up for a subscription of Amazon Prime, and input your preferred payment information and address immediately. Savvy shoppers will appreciate the ability to check out from their cart quickly to take advantage of swiftly ending deals and popular items that may sell out quickly.
Prime Day may seem wild for anyone searching for the best deals for their needs for the first time, but there are a few key tips and tricks that will make your shopping experience a bit easier:
Before you begin, make a list of items you would buy if they were discounted to under $25, such as snacks to restock the pantry, cool gifts for upcoming birthdays and holidays, and fun treats for yourself because you deserve it. Knowing what you want before you dive in will make navigating Prime Day a breeze.
Plan on revisiting Amazon throughout the 16th and 17th. Deals come and go frequently during Prime Day, and itโs worth coming back a few times so you donโt miss out on something special.
Buying exclusively items marked with the Prime icon will help to streamline your shopping even further. There are thousands of items marked with the โPrimeโ logo, which indicates that they are sold either directly from Amazon or a trusted third-party seller, and will ship for free.
Although Amazon should be your go-to shopping destination from July 16th through the 17th, it doesnโt hurt to compare prices on items in your cart before checking out just in case a competitor has an even better offer. Some of the top retailers to keep an eye on for bonus sales include Best Buy, Walmart, Kohlโs, Chewy, Costco, Wayfair, and Loweโs.
