What is Prime Day?
Amazon's October Prime Day event for 2024 was officially called Prime Big Deal Days. The shopping extravaganza essentially functioned as a second Amazon Prime Day event ahead of theholiday shopping season. If you've never shopped during a Prime Day sale before, you might be wondering exactly what it entails, so here's a brief explainer. It was a two-day Amazon sale that offers exclusive savings to Amazon Prime subscribers with limited-time offers, flash deals and rock-bottom prices. It's a rare chance to score Black Friday-level pricing outside of November, so it's usually well worth shopping.
When was Amazon's October Prime Day 2024 event?
Amazon's Prime Day event began on Tuesday Oct. 8 and ran through 11:59 pm PT Wednesday Oct. 9. That means the event is officially over now, but there are plenty of deals still running over at Amazon.
How does October Prime Day compare to July Prime Day?
There are lots of similarities between the two sales. Many of the same deals return during the October sale, especially on Amazon's own devices, such as Blink and Ring home security devices, Fire TVs and tablets, Echo devices and more.
The main difference is related to the timing of the sale. Since July Prime Day is in the summer, there's more focus on back-to-school and outdoor deals. This includes school supplies, grills, lawnmowers and more. During October Prime Day, we see more deals geared toward the upcoming holiday season, such as kitchenware for a Thanksgiving meal or kids toys and games for Christmas.
How does Prime Day work?
The idea behind the sale is pretty simple: Subscribers to Amazon's Prime service can get exclusive discounts on thousands of products and services across the site during a limited period. The products, while still available to non-Prime members, will have extra savings for members, with many prices dropping down to new all-time lows.
When you're logged in to your Prime account and looking at a product landing page, you'll see the discounted price if it's on sale. You don't usually need any special coupon codes, nor is there a need to use a specific payment method to get the discounts. If you spend your money wisely each year, you can easily make back your Prime membership cost in savings during the event.
