What Is Prime Day and How Does It Work?

Preparing For Prime Day

Before Prime Day, you can receive virtual credits to use as you shop. You just have to participate in certain small business deals on Amazon. Of course, since you need a Prime account to take advantage of the deals, you need to make sure you have a current subscription. Share the information with your family members so they can swipe the deals as well.

A week before Prime Day, the major sales are announced. Start watching the listings in advance. You want to know when the Prime Day deals go live! This is especially important when you're planning to purchase items that only have limited quantities. It's a great idea to look at the best deals beforehand so you know what you're buying. Because everything is publicized as part of the hype leading up to the day, you have a lot of time to make your game plan. Then when Prime Day begins, all you have to do is load your cart and check out. It's as easy as that!
