Another Amazon Prime Day Is Coming: Here’s What You Need to Know
I’ve purchased some of my all-time favorite products from Amazon. My desk chair, the oversized mirror that sits in my bedroom, the emotional-support water bottle I take everywhere—heck, I even bought my coffee table on Amazon. I’m a sucker for a good deal and fast shipping, and you know Amazon does both of those things well. And while it may seem like Amazon just had their Prime Day sale, the retailer has another huge sale coming up, and you’re not going to want to miss this one.
Amazon is calling this latest sales event their Prime Big Deal Days. It’s basically the October version of Amazon Prime Day, and the deals are good enough to rival even Black Friday and Cyber Monday-level savings. This fall’s sale promises to be as big as ever, but with a few twists that you’re going to want to know about before you start shopping.
Read on to learn everything you need to know to make the most of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, including some early deals you can start shopping now.
What Is Amazon Prime Big Deal Days?
Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is a 48-hour sales event that kicks off on Tuesday, October 8. The sale officially goes live starting at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time (that’s 3:01 a.m. Eastern) and runs through the next day, October 9. As we get closer to peak holiday shopping season, it’s your chance to shop some of Amazon’s best early holiday deals. You can expect deals across categories including electronics, fashion, home, kitchen, and toys, so no matter who you’re shopping for, you can snag some great deals. Some items are bound to sell out well before the end of the sale, however, so it’s a good idea to shop early. Plus, Amazon will be dropping new deals as often as every five minutes during certain periods throughout the sale, so there are tons of opportunities to score some savings on whatever you’re shopping for.
How to Shop the Best Deals from Amazon Prime Big Deal Days
Like Prime Day, Amazon’s Big Deal Days sale is only available for Prime members, so you’ll want to sign up for a membership (or a free trial) ASAP. It costs $14.99 a month or $139 annually, but of course, you’ll get a ton of benefits like super-fast, free delivery in addition to access to the sale. If you like placing an order and having it arrive within a day or two, the membership fee is well worth it.
Hot tip for scoring the best deals: Set up alerts so you’ll be notified about any sales on items you’ve got your eye on. Since new deals can pop up at any time during the 48-hour sale—including “lightning deals” that are only good until they’re gone—take away some of the shopping stress by visiting the Prime Big Deal Days event page in the Amazon Shopping app. You can set up an alert for any items on your Amazon wishlist, in your cart, or marked “Save for Later.” Then if and when the price drops on your item, you’ll be the first to know.
