How many times does Prime Day happen a year?
Historically, Amazon held only one Prime Day each year. However, for the past two years, they have also hosted a sales event in October, often under a different name. This year's October event is called the 'Amazon Prime Big Deal Days Sale.'
How to sign up for Amazon Prime
Prime Day is Amazon's exclusive event for Prime members, offering a wide range of deals and savings. To take advantage of these offers, make sure to sign up for Amazon Prime. As a Prime member, you'll enjoy benefits like unlimited fast and free delivery, access to award-winning TV shows, exclusive deals, and more.
You can start a free 30-day trial before Prime Day begins and cancel anytime. Alternatively, you can opt for a full membership, which costs £8.99 per month after the trial period, or £96 per year.
As a student, you can get a discounted Prime membership. Amazon Student membership costs only £4.49 per month or £47.49 per year. And now, Amazon has extended this half-price offer to anyone aged 18 to 22. Just verify your age by submitting a copy of your driving license or passport.
What were the best Amazon Prime Day deals last year?
Last year's markdowns featured some real gems. Amazon's own devices were the stars of the show, and they did not disappoint. The Echo Dot (5th Generation) was available for an incredible £21.99, down from its original price of £54.99.
One standout item that created a buzz was the Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner IZ202AMZUKT, a steal at just £179.99 with a saving of £200.
The Ninja Air Fryer, 3.8L AF100UK, quickly sold out after dropping to just £74.99 from £149.99. Similarly, the Ninja Foodi Dual Zone Air Fryer was priced at a very reasonable £169 during the Prime Day sale.
Apple devices were a massive hit, too. The Apple AirPods with wired Charging Case (2nd Generation) were down to just £99.99, saving customers more than £35.
In the beauty category, the Remington Shine Therapy Advanced Ceramic Hair Straighteners were a hot pick, marked down by a whopping 69 per cent, bringing the price to just £24.99. The Bed Head by TIGI Recovery Shampoo and Conditioner Set was a true bargain at only £11.99.
