Amazon’s Prime Day is coming. If you are not familiar with it, it’s the holiday that was created to celebrate all things Amazon. However, this is more than just a celebration — it’s a day full of exclusive deals and steep discounts. While it’s not yet Amazon Prime Day, Amazon has tons of discounts you can take advantage of right now. To get you in the shopping mood, here is a list of 21 popular products. All the items on this list have one thing in common: They each currently cost less than $50.
The first Prime Day took place on July 15, 2015. It was a daylong event that commemorated the 10th anniversary of Amazon Prime and the 20th anniversary of Amazon. While the details of this year’s event have yet to be announced, many are predicting Prime Day 2022 will take place over 48 hours sometime in July.
To take advantage of the deep discounts offered on Prime Day, you need to be an Amazon Prime member. But if you don’t want to wait two months to start enjoying the savings, you can join today. If it’s your first time, or it’s been over a year since you were a member, the first 30 days are free.
