Prime Day dates vary from year to year. It became a two-day event for the first time in July 2019, when sales beat that year’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined, so expect it to be two days once again, with some great deals happening before and after those days as well. “[You’ll find] discounts up to 30% off on items like cleaning and laundry supplies, up to 50% off children’s books, party supplies like a 100-pack of plastic cups for $5, trash bags, toys, and more,” says Julie Ramhold, Consumer Analyst with DealNews.com.
How Can I Find the Best Deals?
“[In 2020] we saw a Vitamix 64-oz. blender for $280, which matched Black Friday prices and was again the lowest price we’d seen at the time,” says Ramhold. “We saw an Instant Pot 6-quart smart WiFi model bundled with a then-current Echo Dot for $89—it was the best price for the cooker we’d seen at the time and included the smart device as well.”
