Historically, Amazon Prime Day offers the lowest prices of the year on many items. This year Prime day goes from Monday, June 21 to Tuesday, June 22. Most deals will go live during this brief window. For those of you who are primed to save money now, you’re in luck; there are a number of deals available now.
If you are not a Prime member, the first order of business is signing up for a 30-day Free Trial of Prime. No commitment necessary, and you can cancel anytime.
Keep in mind the benefits of Amazon Prime are more than Prime Day; it’s 365 days a year. Benefits include:
- Prime Video: Gain access to thousands of movies, TV shows, and Amazon Originals.
- Prime Music: Includes millions of songs and thousands of playlists and stations to stream.
- Prime Delivery: Free shipping on purchases, delivered as fast as Amazon can.

There’s no reason to think Prime Day won’t be a huge shopping event this year. According to Digital Commerce 360, Amazon’s 2020 Prime Day gross revenue was $10.4 billion, up from 2019’s $7.16 billion. We expect Prime Day to increase in 2021.
The success of Prime Day also inspired Amazon’s competitors. A prime example is Best Buy’s The Bigger Deal Savings Event, happening now until June 22. More competition is always great news for the consumer.
