How to Celebrate Amazon Prime Day

1

Create a shopping list

To make the most of the Prime Day sales, start by creating a shopping list. Jot down all the items you need or want and patiently wait for them to go on sale. This way, you can avoid spontaneous purchases and only buy what you actually need.

2

Start a watch party

Make Amazon Prime Day a social event by hosting a watch party with your friends. Share your screens, discuss the deals, and have fun shopping together. Not only is it a great way to spend time with friends, but you can also help each other make smart buying decisions.

3

Set up notifications

Don't miss any deals by setting up notifications on your Amazon app. You'll receive alerts when your desired items go on sale. This can help you snatch up popular items before they sell out.

4

Add funds to your Amazon account ahead of time

Avoid the last-minute hassle of adding credit or debit card details by adding funds to your Amazon account ahead of time. This saves time and allows you to check out faster on Amazon Prime Day.

5

Shop with friends or family

If you live with friends or family, consider group shopping. You can add your desired items to one cart and check out together, saving on shipping costs and possibly qualifying for additional discounts.
