Amazon Prime Big Deal Days have officially begun, offering some of the best holiday shopping deals of the season starting today.
This significant two-day sale, running from October 8 to 9, presents a great chance to grab holiday gifts and high-demand tech items. Shoppers can find discounts on popular products such as Apple devices, smart home technology, Dyson vacuums, televisions, and kitchen appliances. Additionally, winter apparel and gear are expected to be on sale, catering to those preparing for the upcoming Iowa winter.
Amazon’s October Prime Day sale kicks off in the early morning on Tuesday, October 8, at 12:01 a.m. Pacific time, giving customers a 48-hour window to take advantage of these discounts. The deals will conclude at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time on Wednesday, October 9.
To access these exclusive Prime Day deals, customers must be Amazon Prime members. A standard membership is priced at $14.99 monthly or $139 annually, with discounts available for students and individuals receiving government assistance.
Launched in 2015, Amazon’s Prime Day has become a popular event, and in recent years, the company introduced the Big Deal Days in October to kick off the holiday shopping period. Jamil Ghani, Vice President of Prime Worldwide, emphasized the excitement surrounding this season, highlighting unbeatable deals on a range of beloved brands and gifts available exclusively to Prime members.
While it may seem that nearly everything is on sale during Prime Day, be mindful that some items may have limited quantities or short sale durations. For those interested in shopping ahead, Amazon is also featuring numerous early deals leading up to the main event.
Most items purchased during Prime Day can be returned within a 30-day window, although certain restrictions apply.
