Well dates: it’s happening on october 13th and 14th this year and we think it’ll be a good one. Prime day is amazon’s yearly big sale day with discounts rolling across the site. On everything, from tech to video games to furniture, if you want to take advantage, though, you’ll have to be an amazon prime member, which cost around 120 bucks for the year. But if you just want to take part in prime day sales, you could get a month of prime for just 12 or if you haven’t already activated it, then you could set up your first month free trial and then just cancel it after prime day easy. Probably the best idea i have ever had is probably the best idea anybody has ever had. One of the major benefits of prime day over other sales days, like black friday, is that you can do all of your shopping from the comfort of your own home. No need to queue up from 4am or shoulder check that granny in walmart to get yourself a juicy 4k tv deal and if you simply can’t wait, then amazon’s homepage is already touting early deals exclusive to prime members, including the amazon echo dot 2 pack for forty Dollars an amazon tv recast for a hundred and twenty nine dollars. After five years of prime days, amazon has become pretty predictable, with what they’re going to discount you’ll likely see the best deals on amazon’s own products, including echo devices, ring security systems and kindles, but we’ve also seen prime day become known for its good laptop deals.
We’Ve seen apple’s range of luxury macbooks, taking some particularly impressive price cuts over the past few months, especially on the already cheap macbook air 2020 and models like the asus, vivobook, acer, swift and hp. Chromebook have all offered lower budget savings as well, so we’d recommend checking out this year’s amazon prime day laptop deals for a computer between 300 and 800 dollars. Gaming laptop deals have also found a home on amazon in the past 12 months, or so we think the cheaper end of acer, nitros and hp omens have a good chance of going on sale. This amazon prime day, if you’re looking to spend between 500 and 1200 dollars, however, you might be tempted to hold off and see what manufacturers offer during the black friday period, we’ll likely see some decent tv deals this year too, but we’d recommend checking amazon’s prices against Retailers like walmart and target as these supermarket tvs can get caught in a bidding war during the bigger sale periods and you might be able to swoop on a better price. Once amazon has made its discounts. We expect to see this behavior, particularly with insignia and tcl displays at walmart. However, you might want to stick with amazon if you’re looking for his exclusive fire tv and amazon, alexa compatibility, amazon, often bakes its smart assistant straight into these sets to gain an edge over the competitors. If you’re looking for a display that sits above these budget models, you might be in luck.
Last year, amazon discounted the lg oled c9 down from 2499 to 1699 over its prime day tv deals. So if you’re looking to splash the cash, you might find a win here, shut up and take my money.

Another tip would be that you shouldn’t hesitate. If you see what you want on sale grab it, the best deals tend to go quickly and with everyone suffering from stock issues.

Having said that, don’t be seduced by the 90 off sign, know what you want and need before prime day and don’t be sucked in by the useless rubbish, you’ll buy and never use.
