What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day goes from Tuesday, July 12 through Wednesday, July 13 2022 during which Amazon offers some of its best ever deals on all types of products. Expect big discounts on big ticket items as well as great prices and limited-time-only deals on everything from tech, to home and kitchen to popular fashion items. It’s like Christmas in July! If you are one of those super awesome pre-planners (which I am not), you could actually get a leg up on some of your Christmas shopping and be sitting pretty come December.
Amazon Prime Membership
First of all, in order to take advantage of any Prime Day deals, you need to be a Prime member, so if you are not already enrolled, you can click here to sign up and receive a 30 day free trial. The benefits of an Amazon Prime membership are numerous and include:
- Free same-day, 1-day & 2-day delivery
- Ultrafast grocery delivery
- Prime Video – free streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows
- Amazon Music – ad-free access to 2 million songs and millions of podcasts
- Amazon Photos – unlimited full-resolution photo storage and 5GB for video storage
- Amazon Kids+ – all-in-one subscription that gives kids access to thousands of kid-friendly books, movies, educational apps and games on compatible devices
- Prime Reading – unlimited reading of a rotating selection of thousands of eBooks, popular magazines, comics and audiobooks
- And more!
I honestly think I might be on Amazon just about every day and do not know what I would do anymore without a Prime Membership. It is the best thing ever. The free 2-day or less (sometimes freakishly fast) delivery is worth the price of admission alone, but all of the other bonuses make it a no-brainer.
Amazon Prime Day Deals
So what kind of deals might you find on Prime Day? Expect big discounts on Amazon brand products like Fire TV sticks, Kindle Fire Tablets, and the Echo dot.
Another good idea is to consider stocking up if you need things like new towels and bed sheets to take advantage of discounts on Amazon bedding and bath essentials .
And if you’re looking for some great prices on cute summer dresses, sandals or swimwear, Prime Day Fashion deals are definitely worth checking out.
Typically, other great deals can be found in home and kitchen appliances, back to school items, and electronics.
Amazon posts some of their deals (especially on their Amazon brand products) ahead of time, but most deals aren’t announced until the day of, so you just have to check in and stay alert if there is something specific you are looking for. Keep an eye out for lightning deals too, which are limited-time promotions that run out after a certain time period or the item sells out. My best advice is to put items you really want in your cart and then keep checking in to see if they go on sale.
Audible Membership
Now might also be a good time to try Amazon’s Audible Membership, where you can listen to a huge selection of audiobooks, meditation programs, sleep tracks and podcasts. With Audible Premium Plus, you get access to everything in the Audible Plus membership, plus your choice of 1 free title a month to keep forever. Audible Plus comes with a free 30 day trial, and Audible Premium Plus now comes with 3 months free, exclusive for Prime members.
Beverage Delivery!
Also, for all you San Diego mamas out there, Keg N Bottle now apparently offers prime members free beverage delivery to your door! What? How am I just now finding out about this?? Will definitely need to try this out soon and report back! (For research purposes, you understand.) You’re welcome.
Ready, Set, Shop!
Good luck and happy shopping! I hope you’re able to score some great deals in the next couple days. Make sure to check in and let me know what you scooped up!
With Love,
