How to get the best deals on Amazon Prime Big Deal Days

To snag the best discounts, you’ll need to keep one step ahead since these products tend to sell out quickly. Here are some tips to prevent you from missing out:

  1. Sign up for invite-only deals by going to the Prime Big Deal Days page
  2. Set up deal alerts. If something you’ve browsed goes on sale, you’ll get a notification from the Amazon app. To set it up, on the app, go to Settings > Notifications > Your Watched and Waitlisted Deals. Then just toggle the option to On.
  3. Click on the Upcoming filter on the Deals page to see what products will be having sales in the next few hours. Add any upcoming deals you want to your watchlist. You’ll get a notification when deals start.
  4. Ask Alexa about the best deals. This is helpful if you don’t want to wade through pages of products. Just say, “Alexa, tell me the best deals.”
  5. Keep an eye on your email for invite-only deals.
Checklist
Don't forget college shopping!
