MARTIN Lewis’ MoneySavingExpert has shared a trick which could earn you over 20% off your next purchase.

In the most recent MoneySavingExpert newsletter, the team urged everyone to check to see if they could save on their Amazon purchases.

The MoneySavingExpert said that there’s big savings to be made on Amazon Warehouse

The MoneySavingExpert team said: “There is a section on Amazon’s site that resells returned items or products with minor defects at knockdown prices.”

Customers could get hold of GHD hair straighteners for £65 reduced from £109 and a £49 Tassimo by Bosch coffee machine for £22.

Amazon Warehouse is a branch of the online retailer which is stocked full of preowned, used or open box products, all for a discounted price. 

And it’s slicing a further 20% off around 100,000 Warehouse products in its end-of-summer sale. 

Martin Lewis’ team said: “While this isn’t the biggest discount we’ve seen on Amazon Warehouse (previously it’s had a 30% discount), this is the largest number of items included that we see.”

Customers can get products which are used but like new across 34 departments including computers and accessories, home and kitchen, toys, video games, electronics and photo and more.

Amazon shoppers can get their hands on these discounted product directly through the Warehouse branch of the online shop.

Customers will need to act fast to get 20% off selected Amazon Warehouse items before the deal expires next week.

What is Amazon Warehouse?

Amazon Warehouse stocks pre-owned or returned items which are still in great condition.

Items are officially re-sold by the online giant (after going through a rigorous quality check process).

Often shoppers can save up to 50% off buying quality used or open-box returned goods, and from now until Friday, September 9, shoppers will be able to snap up a further 20% off selected eligible items.

There is no discount code is required, as discounts on items included in the offer are automatically deducted at checkout.

We’ve spotted coveted items like this Nintendo Switch for £248 (saving £32 off), and these Sony WF-1000XM4 true wireless noise cancelling headphones for £199 (was originally £250).

One important thing to note is there’s very limited stock of items featured in the Amazon Warehouse, so if you spot a great deal you’ll need to act fast.

How to claim 20% off Amazon Warehouse items

You’ll need to add one item from the Amazon Warehouse products here to your basket using the Add to basket button or select See options for specific product variations.

When you’ve finished shopping, select Go to basket.

If eligible, the offer will automatically be applied at checkout – it’s as simple as that.

Can I return Amazon Warehouse products?

Not only do these products benefit from Amazon’s own fulfilment service, they also come under the firm’s returns policy.

All Warehouse products are stored, packed and dispatched by Amazon, with some also eligible for free delivery.

And if you’re unhappy with your purchase you’ll be able to return it for a full refund within 30 days.

You’ll get roughly 14 days to say you’ll return the package and a further 14 days to then send the goods back.
