Amazon just announced that their ninth annual Amazon Prime Day will run from July 11 through July 12. Not only should you be able to snag a ton of deals during this 48 hour event, typically, there are many ways to stack your savings. In past years, this included using your Amazon credit card, earning Amazon credits and applying just a single credit card point — I am sure we will see these opportunities start to pop up over the next few weeks.
Additionally, Amazon has already announced some pre-saving Prime Deals which you can jump on now and not have to wait until July.
What is Amazon Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day is a yearly two-day event where you’ll see different daily or flash discounts on many popular items. Many offers continuously pop up and while some deals will last all day, many will quickly sell out.
To take advantage of many of the discounts you’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member. If you don’t have a Prime Membership, you can sign up for a free trial which will give you 30 days of free prime access. After the free trial expires, you’ll be charged $139 for the year or $14.99 per month — you’re choice (or you can cancel before the free trial expires).
Early access Amazon Prime Day
Amazon is starting Prime Day early with early access to many of their own Amazon devices. This is similar to what we’ve seen in the past and typically the pricing stays the same. However, if pricing by chance drops, you can always re-purchase at the lower price and return your previous purchase within the return window (typically 30 days).
You can shop all of the Amazon device deals here, but some of the better ones include:

Amazon Prime Signup Offers
If you’re looking to signup for Prime to get in on Prime Day, here are some options (let us know if anything is missing):
- Get free Amazon Prime trial for 30 days. Interestingly, readers let us know that Amazon will sometimes let you get the free trial even if you previously had a trial at one point on the same account. You can also try adding a large item to cart and going to checkout, see if they pop up with another free Prime trial offer for you.
- Students can get six months for free (requires .edu e-mail address); students also get a discounted $7.49 monthly rate after their first 6 months
- You can get a monthly membership for $14.99
- EBT or Medicaid users can signup for a cheaper $6.99 monthly plan.
- A yearly subscription costs $139. Instead of using our links (found in this post), we recommend going through a shopping portal to get a bonus when you signup. Swagbucks is offering a $15 Amazon gift card. Topcashback is offering the same.
