The Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Boxing Day sales all make bargain-hunting shoppers go a little crazy. Now there needs to be a new day added to the shopping calendar; Amazon Prime Day.
It’s been going for a few years, and each year seems to get a little bigger.
Starting Monday 15 July 2019 at midnight, there will be thousands of awesome offers and deals across all departments on Amazon. The sale is lasting for two days, and new deals get released every 5 minutes!
They are calling it a “two-day parade of non-stop deals“!
Only issue – you must be an Amazon Prime member – it’s free to join for the first 30 days.
7 hacks to get the best deals on Amazon Prime Day 2019
So, now you’re a member, how are you going to make sure you get the most of the sale?
Well, take a look at these easy hacks to save you money.
1. Find out the deals early
It can be very easy to fall into the trap of impulse buying. You think you’ve seen a great deal, so you snap it up.
Here you can see all the deals that will be on offer 24 hours in advance of them starting. From 6 pm on 14th July, you’ll get a chance to work out if the reviews are ok and if you’re happy to pay the sale price they’ve asked.
There is also a sneak peek at some of the deals that are going to be released first.
2. Check the price
Use the tool CamelCamelCamel to check previous prices for Amazon products.
Although it’s on sale, they are using Amazon Prime Day as a hyped up way to shift their stock fast.
That doesn’t mean it’s going to be sold at the lowest price ever, so do a little research before you head to the checkout, so you know if you’re getting a bargain or not.
3. Get free Amazon credit
6. Get rewarded (if you can be patient)
If you don’t need your item the next day, opt for no-rush delivery. It will mean getting your order delivered in 3-5 business days (which isn’t really that long to be honest!)
In exchange for your patience, Prime members can earn rewards to redeem against your future purchases.
The rewards can be used for a variety of things including buying eBooks, Amazon Video, groceries and daily essentials on Prime Pantry…plus more!
7. Don’t buy it!
A deal is a deal only if you need it.
Separate your wants from your needs and don’t go to the check out if you can’t afford it.
Have a think about things you may really need for you, your home, or an upcoming birthday/Christmas presents. Make a list early and if it pops up in the Amazon sale then you’ve got a bargain. If not, just save your cash.
Remember, you do need to be an Amazon Prime member to get access to the bargains. You’re able to sign up for a free 30 day trial ahead of the sale and can then take advantage of all the deals.
