AMAZON 2023 PRIME DAY MUST HAVE
I cannot believe at almost four years of blogging; this will be my first-year writing about the Amazon Prime Day Sale. It’s okay, better late than never. I have done some extensive research on this topic, and I am ready to share that with you all.
What is Amazon Prime Day?
In celebration of its anniversary on July 12th, Amazon started the Prime Day sale a couple of years ago as a way to show appreciation to Amazon shoppers and subscribers. Prime Day is a shopping event with deals exclusively for Prime members.
The sale runs for 48hrs, from July 11th till July 12th. On the sale dates, customers can get up to 70% off on all purchases. The best and simplest way to describe this event is that it is like Black Friday in November but with Amazon, and it’s in July.
However, Amazon Prime Day sales have more markdown prices in comparison to Black Friday deals. Prime Day 2023 begins July 11 at 12:00 a.m. Pacific time and ends July 12 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time.
Although Prime Day is for Amazon Prime members only, the sale is also available to non-prime members. However, you can sign up for Prime Membership here.

TIPS ON GETTING THE BEST PRIME DAY DEALS
Looking to get the best deals for Prime Day, you first need to have an Amazon Prime Membership.
Next, create an Amazon account and start to create your Wishlist. If you’re anything like me, having a detailed list of things written down always helps me stay on track.
Also, download the Amazon app and set notifications. This will let you know when the items on your Wishlist go on sale.
The good news is, within your Amazon account, you have the ability to create Wishlist, favorite’s items you love to purchase etc. Having these things beforehand will help make your prime day shopping go smoothly.
Finally, Alexa will be a great assistance for your Prime Day shopping needs. If you already have Alexa, use the device to help remind you of prime day deals when they become available.
