Early Prime Day deals are here. Amazon’s Prime Day sale doesn’t officially start until July 8, but as it’s usually the case with Amazon, early deals start appearing much earlier than the kick-off date.
Our Prime Day coverage starts now, giving you live access to the best deals our team of experts can find. We will always use price tracking tools to make sure the deals you see are actually good deals, and not just hype designed to fool you.
You will need to be a Prime Member to have access to all of Amazon’s Prime Day deals and to get free shipping. Prime membership starts at $14.99 per month ($139 per year) and comes with a lot more benefits than people think. It’s easy to figure out if yearly Prime membership is worth it for you, but remember you can always cancel your Prime membership once the sale is over. Amazon offers free 30-day trials, so you can shop for the whole event and still have time to cancel before you get charged. (Here’s how to sign up for a Prime account.)
If this is your first Prime Day, you need to know some basics:
-
You can share your Prime membership with family members even if they don’t live with you.
-
You can set price alerts for products you want, and your Alexa devices can notify you when they go on sale.
-
There are usually some “Invite-Only” deals that you can sign up for.
-
There are tools you can use to see if the deal you’re looking at is good or not.
-
Getting in contact with a real person can be difficult, but this is the fastest way to do so.
You can check out our live blog of the event below, which features the whole team’s coverage of all four days of Prime Day. We’ll continue covering new deals as they are published, but scroll through the blog to check out all of the best deals so far.
