Amazon Prime Day (and a half) July 16-17, 2018 | 36 Hours of Deals Bigger than Black Friday

Amazon Prime Day is a shopping event with more deals than Black Friday.  Prime members can shop exclusive deals from electronics, toys, video games, movies, clothing, patio, lawn and garden, sports and outdoor items and more.    Amazon will be featuring thousands of deals offered exclusively for Prime members with new deals as often as every 5 minutes throughout the day!

And this year, Prime members will enjoy 36 hours of shopping!!  Amazon today announced that this year’s Prime Day starts on July 16 at 12pm PT/3pm ET and will run through July 17 – for 36 hours of Amazon’s best deals. Prime Day (and a half) will feature more than one million deals worldwide and 50 percent more Spotlight Deals, exclusively for Prime members. This year, members can shop exclusive new items, content and special-edition products from hundreds of well-known and emerging brands. Also new this year, Whole Foods Market joins the celebration with Prime Day deals and offers at all U.S. locations. 

It’s not too early to shop for Christmas either!

You can start your 30 Day Free Trial of Prime (with the option to cancel anytime).   Obviously, they don’t want to you cancel, so Amazon hopes that you will love it (or forget to cancel) and pay for an annual membership.   Do I have Amazon Prime?  Yes I do!  Is it worth?  That depends.

I LOVE Amazon Prime Pantry.  And that’s a feature I couldn’t use without a Prime subscription.  I also stream TV shows and movies (we don’t have TV service – our TV viewing comes 100% from online sources).  It’s nice to have some free with Prime TV options.  You can also stream music, take advantage of FREE no-minimum 2 Day shipping and Prime member only deals!  (Sometimes the price of something on Amazon will go SO LOW that they only offer it to Prime members).
