Amazon Prime Day Deals

Amazon Prime Day (or days this year) is upon us! 🙂 Last year’s Prime Day was 36 hours, and this year the deals run a full 48 hours.

This year the fun starts Monday, July 15th at 12am PT, 3am ET. Amazon is promising more than a million deals all over the world during this event, with new deals launching every five minutes!

In case you aren’t familiar with Amazon Prime Day, it got its start in 2015 to celebrate Amazon’s 20th anniversary. It lasted for 24 hours, and customers spent more than they did on Black Friday in 2014. Amazon sold 24,000 Instant Pots during its first Prime Day. Remember when Amazon was merely an online bookstore? 🙂

The following year, 215,000 Instant Pots were sold on Prime Day 2016. I’m not sure why Amazon decided to track Instant Pot sales as a measure of their growth, but I have one and it’s pretty great so I get it. 🙂 Additionally, more than two million toys and one million pairs of shoes were sold.

In 2017, the most popular item sold during Prime Day was the Echo Dot, Amazon’s voice controlled smart speaker. Again, the Instant Pot was the number one selling item in the U.S. and Canada.

In 2018, Prime members bought over 100 million items, with Fire Sticks and Echo Dots the best global sellers. By this time, Amazon had added Whole Foods to its portfolio, and Prime Day deals were available at Whole Food Stores. The best selling item? Organic strawberries. 🙂

And the Instant Pot sales count for 2018? 300,000!

So that brings us to this year. More hours to shop, more deals from which to choose. Amazon has said that one of the most exciting events for customers will be the opportunity to preorder Lady Gaga’s HAUS Laboratories beauty collection, including six collections and nine limited-time duo sets, while supplies last.

Each kit includes one glam attack (all over liquid shimmer powder), one RIP lip liner and one Le riot lip gloss. Little monsters everywhere will be the first to discover and shop Lady Gaga’s newest creation on amazon.com/hauslabs.

Here is just a sample of additional deals Prime members can expect:

• Shopping with Alexa: Get early access to select deals on devices—shop with Alexa on any Echo device beginning July 13. Just ask, “Alexa, what are my deals”. To track your Prime Day orders with Alexa, just ask, “Alexa, where’s my stuff?”
• Amazon.com in Spanish: Customers can shop Prime Day deals, view their shopping cart, and place orders in Spanish. Preferred language settings can be updated in the Amazon App and on Amazon.com by clicking the ‘globe’ button located in the navigation bar at the top of the Amazon home screen.

It seems that other retailers are getting into the game, offering their own special shopping days to compete with Amazon. Target is having its own Deal Days, on the same dates as Amazon Prime Day. Walmart and Dell are having sales events as well.

I know this is a lot of shopping info to take in, and that there are a TON of links in this blog post, but as I was researching the deals, I wanted to try to make it as easy as possible for you to just click on the things you like and be taken straight to the savings!

So, happy shopping! If you have any tips to share about how to make the most of Amazon Prime Day, please feel free to share in the comment section.
