Save Up to 70% on Your Online Shopping This Amazon Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day is back once again on June 21st and 22nd, 2021, and you’ll want to set a reminder in your calendar so you don’t miss out on the great deals on offer this year. If you aren’t familiar with Amazon Prime Day, it’s an annual event for Amazon Prime members that offers up to 70% off on various products throughout the Amazon marketplace. You’ll find you can get almost anything during this sale, and many of the top brands that are stocked on Amazon also get involved in the fun. Let’s take a look at everything you need to know to help you save on your shopping this month.
What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is an annual shopping event from Amazon that takes place throughout the world. While it used to take place in July each year, the dates have changed due to the recent pandemic, and we are excited to see it moved forward to June 21st and 22nd, 2021. To take part in Amazon Prime Day, you will need a valid Amazon Prime subscription. If you haven’t already subscribed to this service, take part in the free 30-day trial to enjoy the amazing bargains on offer. You’ll find fantastic deals on electronics, such as the Kindle e-reader, during this time. As well as the main deals that are on offer throughout the event, you’ll also find Lightning Deals which you can take advantage of for just a few minutes or hours at a time.
Joining Amazon Prime
Amazon Prime is a monthly subscription service that offers a whole host of benefits to shoppers. In the UK, Amazon Prime costs just £7.99 a month, but you’ll get your first 30 days for free if you are a new member. If you regularly shop on Amazon, you’ll easily get your money’s worth each month, as you enjoy free shipping on most purchases on the site. After just a couple of deliveries, it will pay for itself, and that’s before enjoying many of the amazing services you also receive from Amazon Prime.
Supporting Small Businesses During Amazon Prime Day
One of the best additions to the 2021 Amazon Prime Day is the small business promotion that’s taking place in the run up to the event. Until June 20th, 2021, when you spend £10 with any small businesses stocked on Amazon in the UK, you will receive a £10 credit to spend during Amazon Prime Day. This includes products which are from Amazon Launchpad and Amazon Handmade, and you can find women’s dresses, jewellery, and much more included in this category.
Over 300,000 items are included in this promotion, so you’ll have no shortage of choice when taking part in this deal. This is double the amount that was included in last year’s similar promotion, so you’ll find it easier than ever to support small businesses after a challenging year. Just look for the banner on the product information page, which will show that your item is eligible for the promotion. Make sure you are a Prime member before making the purchase, and you can then take advantage of this great deal and put your £10 off towards a new Amazon Echo or another great device during the big event.
What Should I Buy on Amazon Prime Day?
While many of the deals for this year’s event won’t be released until the big day, you’ll want to think about any big-ticket purchases you may have been saving for. Last year, Amazon Prime members saved an incredible $1.4 billion during Prime Day worldwide, enjoying amazing deals throughout the two days. Popular shopping categories include electronics, home, and health, and you can expect good savings on Amazon’s electronic product if it’s anything like last year. If you’ve been thinking of purchasing a robot vacuum or another popular electronic item, keep an eye on the savings that appear during the two days.
Last year, Amazon Prime members earned millions of dollars thanks to the promotions before Prime Day, and we can expect the same from the small shop promotion this year. The Echo Dot was the world’s most popular purchase last year, and customers then went on to purchase millions of devices that are compatible with Alexa. There really is something for everyone to buy during this event, and you’ll be surprised by the deep discounts on offer for Amazon Prime Members.
Other Benefits of Amazon Prime
As well as this exciting two-day shopping event, you’ll get to enjoy many other great benefits when you become an Amazon Prime member. Firstly, free one-day delivery is available on millions of items in the UK with your membership, which will save you a fortune on delivery costs over the next few months. Of course, everything you purchase during Amazon Prime Day can also be delivered for free to your home. On top of that, you’ll enjoy many more delivery benefits, Prime Video, and other great services to keep your whole family entertained this summer. It’s the perfect entertainment membership for your family, and you’ll soon find it pays for itself within just a few weeks.
We can’t wait to see what discounts Amazon drops during the upcoming Amazon Prime Day this month. Make sure you have the site up all day long during this two-day event, as you’ll want to keep an eye out for the Lightning Deals when they drop so that you don’t miss out on any of the top bargains on offer this year.
