Tips for Navigating Prime Day 2023
To help you make the most of Prime Day, here are some tips:
- Start your Amazon Prime trial: If you’re not yet a Prime member, you can try Amazon Prime free for 30 days to get access to all the Prime Day deals. You’ll likely get hooked on the Prime services, such as free two-day shipping and streaming movies and TV for personal and classroom use. If you’re working on your advanced degree and have a .edu email address, you qualify for Amazon Prime Student, which gives you a six-month all-access free trial and then Prime for just $49 a year—half the price of a regular membership. Working teachers also get exclusive perks.
- Request access to the invite-only deals program: New for Prime Day 2023, Prime members can request an invitation to access special deals that are expected to sell out quickly. Look for the yellow “Request Invite” button on products marked “Available by Invitation.”
- Download the Amazon app and set up deal alerts: Download the free Amazon app to easily find the top deals during Prime Day. Go to the Prime Day page and set up deal alerts any time between now and Prime Day. You’ll receive push notifications when your deals are starting.
- Set up deal notifications on Alexa: Alexa can remind you about deals on any products added to your cart, wishlist, or saved for later. Just say, “Alexa, add [name of product] to my cart.” Then ask Alexa to notify you when the deal is live.
- Make an Amazon list: Turn your wish list into a reality! Make an official Amazon list of the items you hope will go on extreme sale for Prime Day. If these items go on sale, you’ll be notified through an Amazon app push notification.
- Start watching deals early: The Prime Day deals will be revealed a day or two before the event begins. New deals start as often as every 5 minutes for 30 hours straight.
- Join the waitlist if you miss a deal: If an item is 100 percent claimed, click the “Join Waitlist” button on the product page. If additional items become available, you’ll receive a notification on your mobile device through the Amazon app.
And remember, the early bird catches the worm. So, start preparing now, make your wish list, set up your alerts, and get ready to score some fantastic deals on Prime Day 2023!
