Amazon Prime Day is happening this week! Amazon Prime Day 2020 officially kicks off on Tuesday, October 13 at 12 a.m. PT and ends on Wednesday, October 14 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Prime Day was delayed due to the impacts of COVID-19. While the sale typically falls in mid-July, it was pushed back to October to ensure its workers’ safety and better prepare for shipping.
Prime Day began in 2015 as a way to celebrate Amazon’s 20th anniversary as a company. It was such a hit, the retailer has continued to bring the sale back every year and find new ways to make it bigger and better.
Prime Day runs for two full days. That’s 48 hours for Prime members to take advantage of its incredible savings. Last year, Amazon sold a record-breaking 175 million products on Prime Day, which was more than it sold on Black Friday and Cyber Monday in 2019 combined.
Amazon’s global shopping event is exclusive to its Prime members. Membership comes with many perks, like fast and free shipping on millions of products, streaming benefits, access to thousands of ebooks, and so much more. And even when it’s not Prime Day, Amazon is always offering its members exclusive discounts on products in its Just for Prime section.
Amazon Prime member knows that the two-day sale is one of the best times of the year to score incredible deals on over 1 million exclusive items on big-ticket items — like TVs, kitchen appliances, and vacuums — to daily essentials from brands like Panasonic, Keurig, Under Armour, Coleman, Simple Joys by Carter's, Adidas, Lacoste, and Marvel.
The annual event is known for offering steep discounts across items in every department. It’s packed with so many savings, it’s almost too hard not to shop. There will be savings on fashion, beauty, home, electronics, toys, pets, and many more categories. Prices tend to drop to their all-time lowest, making them comparable to discounts you might find on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Prime Day Products will be labeled, and there will also be thousands of lightning deals that only last for a certain amount of time. New deals are always dropping throughout this sale, so it’s best to stay close to your phone or computer and keep refreshing.
Some of the most popular products last year included the Nintendo Switch, Apple Airpods, Fire TV Stick, Amazon Smart Plug, Instant Pot, and Ring Doorbell (which was the cheapest it’s ever been!). We also saw tons of products from celeb-loved brands on sale, like Chrissy Teigen’s favorite Foreo skincare tool, Kim Kardashian’s Olaplex hair treatment, and Kate Middleton’s beloved Superga sneakers. And there will be more deals on reusable and disposable face masks, hand sanitizers and thermometers which are this year’s most important necessity of all.
