Prime Day is less than a week away. If you experienced feelings of FOMO from not taking advantage of any of the previous Prime Day deals this year, now is your chance. Oct. 8 and 9 are Amazon's October Prime Big Deals Day.
Prime Day requires an Amazon Prime membership, though you don't have to be a paying member to get in on the savings. Start your 30-day Prime free trial now and you'll be able to shop the best deals without paying for a subscription -- just remember to cancel before it renews.
Don't be discouraged from taking advantage of the huge Prime Day deals on Apple devices, TVs, everyday essentials, and more because you don't have a membership. Prime deals and its perks are for everyone. You too can snag items you want at a discounted price for free without fully committing to a membership with this one trick.
Do I need a Prime Membership to participate in Prime Day?
Amazon Prime costs $15 a month, or $139 if you pay yearly. There's also an option for students that costs $7.50 a month and an option for those on a qualified government assistance plan for $7 a month. But if you want to get Prime Deals without paying a cent, the trick is to take full advantage of Amazon's free 30-day service trial.
Your 30-day Amazon Prime trial should include access to all of the benefits of Amazon Prime, including Prime Video, discounted prescription drugs, free two-day delivery and yes, access to Prime Day deals. The only catch? You can't use the same email address you've used for an Amazon Prime trial before.
When should I cancel my Amazon Prime free trial?
You'll also want to be sure to cancel your trial before Amazon auto-renews your membership after 30 days or you'll get charged. It's fairly easy to cancel your Amazon Prime subscription. But if you forget, Amazon will automatically renew your membership for $15 (or your discounted price) monthly.
If you're looking forAmazon Prime Day deals, you'll need an Amazon Prime subscription. Using an Amazon Prime trial is a low-risk method for accessing the bargains while checking out the service's other benefits without being locked into something you may not be ready for.
