Amazon Prime Day, Act 6 Starts Tonight: Everything You Need To Know To Maximize Your Savings!

In 2015 Amazon started “Black Friday in July.” While the first year was somewhat of a letdown for many people, the past 5 years were packed with some really great bargains, with over 100 deals posted last year!

2. Follow deals posted on the Amazon Prime Day Homepage as well as all deals on this page, where you can narrow deals by the categories that interest you on the left side of the page.

3. Many of the special Prime Day deals will be featured as Amazon Lightning Deals. The best deals will be claimed very quickly so if you see an item you want add it to your cart the moment it goes live. Once added to your cart you will have 15 minutes to decide whether you want to purchase it or not. If you missed the opportunity to claim something you wanted, join the wait list. You will have to monitor your cart. If the item expires in someone else’s cart, it will then appear in yours and you will have 15 minutes to complete your purchase.

  • 31K+ people receive a daily email digest of everything posted on Dansdeals.com via Google’s Feedburner service! Bear in mind that with this service you will receive emails a day after a deal is posted, so there’s a decent chance that by the time you get the email the deal will be dead already…which is why I prefer the twitter option. It seems to be a favorite pastime of Feedburner subscribers to email me asking how dare I send them an email of deals after the deal is already dead or to leave irate comments like this one. At any rate to subscribe just locate the “Daily Email Digest” section in the sidebar of this site, enter your email address, and subscribe.

That’s purely from a points standpoint.
If you’re talking about card benefits – purchase/return protection, etc, that’s a different story. Obviously for most purchases you won’t need the security of having those protections but if it’s a purchase where that will make a difference, then do bear that in mind.

Of course, though you still have to weigh the value of the protection vs the value of the additional points.
That will vary based on what the item is.

Many items are discount a bit further with the 5-15% back when using the Amazon prime visa card.

In the past, Amazon discounted the entire amazon warehouse category. Will they be doing that again this year?
