A leading retailer, Amazon has made a name for itself on the online marketplace. At the moment, the fast delivery, low prices, and amazing customer services that are available on this platform are unbeatable. In fact, it is because of these three reasons that most people continue to check into Amazon whenever they need to buy something over the internet.
That said, just because you are shopping on one of the most popular of all online retailers does not mean that you have to pay through the nose to get what you want. In fact, there are so many Amazon deals, coupons, and discounts that you should get away without paying full price.
Here are some:
- Amazon Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day is the second “Black Friday”—a day during which you can get thousands of amazing deals on all sorts of products. Prime Day is becoming more and more popular. This year it broke record as sales increased by 60%. From spatulas to crop tops and TVs to Dust busters, there’s just about something for everyone during this cutthroat sales day.
Running through 30 hours, Amazon Prime Day will be celebrated with fresh waves of hot deals and hits every few minutes. As you can imagine, there will be tons of bargains in store for the vigilant.
However, you must be an Amazon Prime member (at a cost of $100 a year, or $10.99 a month) to take advantage of these deals. Alternatively, you can simply sign up for the 30-day free membership on Amazon and the deals will still be available to you.
In preparation for Amazon Prime Day, you should also get the Amazon app. When you see anything that hasn’t gone on sale, set a reminder to ensure that you get back to it in good time.
- Amazon Coupons
You can also use Amazon coupons to get the deals you have been looking for. Did you know that Amazon has a special page where all coupons are listed? You only have to click on those categories you are most interested in, and wait. You can find extensive guides on how to use that page and save with Amazon coupons. But the point is that when you find the products you wish to buy, you should click on the “Clip coupon” link and Amazon will automatically apply the discount to your final price.
Where possible, you should only use coupons that will give you the greatest discounts. For instance, there are many 40% off Amazon coupon codes on offer – which you can take advantage of whenever it suits you.
However, you should remember the following:
- Amazon will only apply the discounts on first subscription or at check out
- Some of the coupons are only available to Amazon Prime members
- Amazon releases new coupons every so often, so you need to keep checking
- Amazon Prime
Last but not least, you might want to sign up for Amazon Prime. Most people who sign up, however, only do so because they can get 30 days free of charge as well as free 2-day shipping.
Still, there are many more advantages in store for Amazon Prime members. For instance, as a member you should be able to:
- Enjoy the exclusive two-hour delivery
- Entertain yourself
- Get deals on all new video games
- Listen to music without ads
- Read an unlimited number of eBooks free of charge
- Shop for groceries and have them delivered right to your home
- Store unlimited photos
- Take advantages of numerous members-only Amazon discounts
- Watch exclusive shows
So, there you have it – a couple of ways to spend less and get more when you shop with Amazon. These deals and discounts will go a long way in saving you money while simultaneously improving the quality of life for you.

I don’t use Amazon much, as I don’t have Prime. I would love to have it just for the shipping, but don’t want to pay for all the other things. If they ever lower the price for just shipping, I’d jump on it!! I didn’t know they have coupons. Good to know!
I didn’t do any amazon prime shopping. We shop a lot on amazon and have prime membership but I always find the day so overwhelming.
I am a dad who hates in store shopping so Amazon is my place and I do have Prime. I really like it and noticed a comment above, she is right. Not always have I received in 2 days either even though it was prime. Still, my favorite place to shop.
I used Amazon Prime before. It was good.
Amazon does not have 2 hour delivery does it? I thought is was 2 day delivery. But you do not always get 2 day delivery even when it is an Amazon Prime product. I wonder why. I do not think there is a guarantee on 2 day delivery. But I still love Amazon Prime, and they have some good shows to watch for free. And I love so many of there great deals on so many items!
In some areas (think large metropolitans) there is 2-hour delivery.
Amazon is a great place to shop. I did not know they had Amazon Coupons.
I love Amazon Prime. Just got the last of the stuff I bought on Amazon Prime day. Good stuff at very good prices.
