The 1st day of school is so close and we are starting to feel the stress of getting our kiddos ready. But when!? With work and hectic schedules, there is no time to go out! Shop like a boss on July 15th and 16th without leaving the comfort of your home or dragging your kids around from store to store. I also have your Amazon free trail in this
Here is everything you need to know to optimize your shopping experience and get the best deals without loosing your mind!
What is Prime Day?
Prime day is when Amazon offers amazing deals on some of the most sought after items for one day only. It is their way of saying “Thank You” to all 100 million plus (and growing) members. Amazon started this in 2015 to celebrate the 20th anniversary and had such an amazing response from their members that they do this every year.
This year will de different but in a great way. They are having the longest prime day yet! This year you can get 48 hours worth of awesome deals. These deals are Amazon exclusives and will only be announced the day of.
They are also kicking it off with a concert by Taylor Swift and a few other amazing female performers.
If you are a gamer, this section is for you. You can watch celebrities compete live. You will also get Prime Day gaming deals and take advantage of Twitch Prime benefits which include free games, exclusive in-game content, and live events.
Here is what you need to do now
- If you do not have an Amazon Prime Membership, get your 30 day FREE TRIAL here.
Don’t worry, after your free trial is up, you can cancel or continue. Amazon has made it super affordable and easy to continue their services. You can pay a one time annual fee or pay $12.99 per month.
The biggest perk for me is the FAST & FREE Shipping. This means same day, next day or 2-day shipping…FOR FREE!
If you are not sure if you will ever use it, trust me… you will!
Online shopping is where it’s at these days and the feeling you get when you get that notification on your phone that your package has been delivered or pulling up to your house and seeing a box is so exciting (and addicting).
Not only that but you will also have access to Prime Video, Prime Music, Prime Wardrobe, Amazon Fresh and more!

Prime day will officially begin on July 15th 12am PT and last 48 hours.

Do you have Alexa?
I only ask because YOUR HOUSE NEEDS IT! Or at least mine does. Alexa is basically a virtual assistant that was developed by Amazon.
It is capable of voice interaction, music playback, making to-do lists, setting alarms, streaming podcasts, playing audiobooks, and providing weather, traffic, sports, and other real-time information, such as news
It looks like a speaker and you literally talk to it by saying “Alexa”, and tell it what you want.
Guess what else it can do… order stuff from Amazon for you! On Amazon Prime day, you will be able to work, cook, clean, watch tv or whatever else you need to do without even having to get online.
To access this feature on Alexa, just make sure Alexa Voice Shopping is enabled on your device. Throughout the day ask Alexa “What are todays top deals”. If you like it, tell her to buy it. It’s that easy!
Not only is Alexa convenient and easy, it will almost be necessary because of 5G network, technology and a “Smart” generation that is only going to improve.
There are a couple of options for you.
Echo Dot.
It is the smaller and more discreet version. You can put it on your desk, night stand or anywhere you need it and it doesn’t take up too much space.
Echo 2
You will need an Amazon Prime account with this device. If you do not have one, you can get your FREE 30 day trial here!
You are ready to go!
You have everything you need to optimize this epic shopping day.
