If you know me, you know I don’t like to leave my house much. I also like things that are convenient. So Amazon Prime Day is basically a holiday. My favorite holiday… and yes, you find the best deals here – not on Black Friday. (Trust me. I did a story about it for NBC back in the day.)

It’s not in most people’s calendars, but it’s in mine. In 2022, it falls on July 12th and 13th. A two-day event! Like any important holiday, you need to prepare and that’s exactly what I’m going to help you with here… plus, you don’t want to miss the early deals!

Remember to scroll down to the bottom of this page to grab my favorite Prime Day deals on Amazon. You’ll thank me later 😉

But first, understanding the big day if you’re new to it.

Become an Amazon Prime Member

First, it helps if you’re an Amazon Prime member.

To do this, you will pay $119 a year or $12.99 a month. (Trust me. It’s sooooo worth it.)

If you’re not a member, you will want to sign up for an Amazon Prime account free trial for you can take advantage of the Amazon Prime Day deals. 

Also, be on the lookout for insane deals from Amazon products, like the Amazon Echo Dot (which I have and love), Amazon gift cards, Amazon Prime membership, and other select Amazon devices.

5 Things to do (and get) for Amazon Prime Day 2021

Shopping on Amazon Prime Day

1. Compare Prices on Amazon

Oh yes, the deals aren’t just happening on Amazon.

These big-box stores like Walmart, Best Buy, and Target are starting to catch on that people like to shop online, so they are being competitive!

Some online retailer sites like eBay are also trying to drive you away from Amazon.com.

So while something may look like a great deal on Amazon, it’s worth doing a Google search to see what you can get that same thing at a lower price somewhere else.

Remember, we’re talking about online shopping here. This will take you 30 seconds. You’re not driving to another store to price check. Your shopping cart is online… which makes finding deep discounts so freakin’ easy.

2. Track Prices on Amazon

You can also use online tools to see if the deal really is a deal.

This happens all the time before Christmas.

Retailers make things look like deals, but they’re really not.

Tools like Honey and CamelCamelCamel will tell you if the seller jacked up the price right before Prime Day just to bring it down to make it look like a deal when it really isn’t.

With Amazon prices changing daily, these are must-haves year round! 

Some of those tools can also automatically apply coupons you didn’t know existed at checkout.

3. Read the Amazon Reviews

This is also something you can’t do in a store.

I will read a review before I buy almost anything… and they are very helpful.

But, buyer beware.

Anyone can put anything on the internet. (Yes, people are still learning this.)

Personally, I’ve been offered products for free in exchange for leaving a positive review.

I would never say something positive about something I had a negative experience with, but many will.

For this reason, I always look at the number of reviews something has.

If it’s just a few, I take it with a grain of salt.

If it’s hundreds or thousands, then I’m a believer.

Fitbit Fitness & Health Tracker LINKED HERE

If it’s not tracked on the Fitbit, did it really happen? That’s been my motto for the last few years. Right now, I don’t want all the technology that comes with an Apple Watch, so I use a Fitbit and sync it up to my app to track my heart rate, activity with the fitness tracker, periods, and more.

Apple AirPods Pro LINKED HERE

The amount of books I’ve been able to “read” and podcasts my husband has listened to thanks to these bad boys is on another level. My husband has these in his ears all. the. time. Wireless earbuds are great for multitasking.
