AMAZON Prime Day is finally here – and we’ve rounded up the best deals.
This year the Prime Day shopping event will run from today (Tuesday October 13) until midnight on Wednesday October 14 in the UK.
To bag a bargain in the sales you have to be an Amazon Prime member, which costs an upfront £79 a year or £7.99 a month, although there is a reduced price for students.
The good bit about becoming a Prime member is not only access to sales events but you also qualify for free next day delivery, as well gaining access to Prime TV shows, eBooks and even live music events.
If you’ve never been a member before then you can sign up to a free trial and cancel before you’re charged.
Amazon will also feature “lightning deals”, which are time-limited offers.
Of course, just because Amazon has a sale on doesn’t mean you can’t get the item for less elsewhere, so always do an online comparison using tools such as Google Shopping and PriceSpy.
You should also use website CamelCamelCamel to check if Amazon has sold products for less at other times of the year, as if so it might be worth holding out for another sale, such as Black Friday or Christmas.
It’s also worth checking rival websites to see if they prime match to Amazon discounts. We’ve only included items which were the cheapest price Amazon has ever sold them for at the time of writing.
