As Amazon enthusiasts likely know, Amazon Prime Day 2020 had to take a rain check due to the pandemic, leaving shoppers jonesing for their annual fix of deep discounts and lightning-quick delivery. Luckily, Amazon decided to make up for lost Prime Day fun by announcing a new shopping event to occur this fall. Dubbed the Amazon Prime Day-like shopping event, it promises to be an exciting and welcome surprise for shoppers starved for some good old-fashioned holiday splurging.
As with the traditional Prime Day event, the Amazon Prime Day-like event will be all about serious discounts and exclusive offers. While it is still unclear what kind of discounts shoppers should expect, Amazon has stated it plans to have “days of deals” across the company’s many product lines. This means shoppers should be able to find anything from kitchen appliances, to fitness equipment, to gaming consoles available on sale. As well, expect special discounts on Prime-exclusive items, including Amazon’s own-brand products.
The Amazon Prime Day-like event is also likely to feature its own version of pre-sales. Shopping savvy consumers are already keeping their eyes peeled for early access deals if they’re members of Amazon Prime. Amazon usually releases early access deals leading up to Prime Day, so shoppers can expect the same this fall.
It’s still unclear when the Amazon Prime Day-like event will happen, as Amazon has yet to announce the exact dates. However, Amazon generally holds these events between mid-October and mid-November, so it is likely to happen during this timeframe. So, if you’re keeping your wallet open for deep discounts — keep an eye out for the official announcement sometime this fall.
Overall, the Amazon Prime Day-like event could prove to be a great way to get in some holiday shopping without breaking the bank. But remember, it pays off to be prepared. So have a list ready of what you need, and be sure to stay up to date on the official announcement of the event. You don’t want to miss out on some of Amazon’s best savings.
