It has now been confirmed that the 2024 Amazon Prime Day sale will take place some time in July. And while that may seem a while away, it will come around in no time.
The huge Amazon sale is one of the biggest events in the retail giant's calendar, second only to Amazon Black Friday, and is one of the best times to grab the best swimwear on Amazon, Lululemon alternatives and yoga mats on Amazon, amongst other things.
But what many might not know is Amazon runs discounts on a variety of products year-round. While the official Prime Day sale is a couple of months away, there are still plenty of brilliant discounts to be had - including garden furniture, coffee machines, and this COLOR WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Spray, which is one of our beauty editors' favourite products.
Our beauty editor Aleesha Badkar says: "I've been fortunate enough to try many a hair treatment through my role as a beauty editor, but the only reliable solutions I’ve come across have been semi-permanent keratin treatments that have to be done in a salon and are often not the cheapest. But when I got my hands on the Color Wow anti-frizz spray, everything changed...
"Not only does the treatment protect from humidity, it also leaves hair smooth and glossy for up to four washes. And while the results already make this a very worthwhile investment, the treatment is currently 15% off, making it the perfect time to top up on this magical little spray."
Hair products aren't the only thing on offer in the Amazon sale today. The retail giant has impressive discounts across a range of departments, the highlights of which we have listed below. You'll also find great savings across jeans on Amazon and Amazon shapewear.
Amazon sale: Perfume
This beautiful floral fragrance is a favourite here at W&H. The rich scent is delicate but yet has a bit of an edge, which lends itself perfectly to evenings. The musky vanilla base gives off a warmth and air of sophistication that doesn't fade quickly.
In a striking pink bottle, Christian Dior joy is one of our top perfume picks. When testing, the beauty team found it be light but noticeable, and with a maturity that oozes sophistication. It also passed the longevity test, and prompted a number of compliments.
Voted one of the best fragrances in our pick of the best long-lasting perfumes, Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino will instantly transport you to the Italian Riviera. When testing, the delicious mix of citrus, lavendar and rosemary lasted all day.
Amazon sale: Bags
This stylish cross-body bag is a steal, coming in at just over £20. It has multiple pockets to house all your essentials and comes in 20 different colour ways for all manner of occasions.
Similar to the highly popular Uniqlo crossbody bag, this crescent crossover bag is perfect for storing all your essentials. Available in a variety of colours, all at a great price, you'd be forgiven for splashing out on more than one.
This stunning personalised tote bag looks far more expensive than it is. The perfect holiday or work tote, this will take you anywhere this season. 15% off for a limited time, this is not a deal to be missed.
Amazon sale: Garden furniture
This simple set is ideal for even the smallest of gardens, and it's currently 15% off. Customers note that it is very easy to fold away and the chairs are extremely comfortable - perfect for sunny days.
Ideal for lounging around in this season, you will struggle not to spend every day sat in this affordable swing chair. For less than £65, it's a bargain purchase that you will use year after year.
It's not often you come by a high-quality garden bench for this good of a price. A timeless addition to your garden, it is durable, sturdy, and can sit three people.
Amazon sale: Vacuum cleaners
When it comes to vacuum cleaners, Shark is a tough brand to beat. This portable cleaner can switch between an upright vacuum and a portable one that can be lifted away from the chassis, making it really versatile. It also comes with a five-year guarantee
With an impressive 37% discount at the moment, this is a real steal. With an average rating of 4.4/5, customers rave about its performance and cordless convenience.
This quality AEG vacuum cleaner is smaller than it looks, but it still packs a mighty punch. Having one at home myself, I can attest it is fantastic for getting rid of stubborn pet care that likes to cling to the carpet.
Amazon sale: Air fryer
There wasn't a time, not that long ago, when we would have to pay hundreds of pounds for a quality new air fryer. Thankfully things have changed, and today this highly-rated model on Amazon is under £70.
The deal we posted Ninja's sought after dual zone air fryer has come back up again. I bought it during the last Amazon event, which was a few months ago now, and I've barely used my oven in that time – a game-changer.
The Ninja Max AF160 made it to our list of the best Ninja air fryers due to its compact size and Ninja quality, of course. The Max Af 160 is a perfect starter air fryer for your kitchen and takes at least some of the pain away from cooking your meals.
Amazon sale: Fake tan
If you need more instant colour, this express tanning foam gets rave reviews on Amazon. "This is one of the best self-tans on the market - and I'm an expert! It has no guide colour so doesn't come off on clothes or sheets and develops into a lovely golden tan." - Darlo, Feb 2024
A must-have accessory for anyone who fake tans, it's worth stocking up on this quality Bondi Sands mitt for friends and family while it's on sale. Washable and reusable, this mitt can be used for all self-tanning mists, foams and lotions.
A brilliant way to give your face a natural, sun-kissed glow, Bondi Sands gradual tanning face lotion builds a beautiful colour over time, and hydrates your skin at the same time. This 100ml bottle is perfect for travel too.
Amazon sale: Coffee machines
Nespresso's Vertuo system is the most contemporary pod coffee system on the market, and we rarely see this model drop below £100. Able to brew five different drink lengths, it's an all-rounder that will work perfectly for busy families.
If you want to brew espresso from home, the compact yet powerful Breville Bijou Espresso Machine is a great place to start. Its steam wand heats fast and its 15 bars of pressure are perfect for creating a quality crema.
One of the best coffee machines we've tried, the Philips 3200 Series Bean-to-Cup Coffee Machine makes five different drinks and allows you to adjust the length and foam level for every beverage.
Amazon sale: Rugs
The Surya Syracusa Vintage Rug is chic, neutral, and available in seven different sizes. The boho look will work in a variety of spaces, and it even comes in round and oval variations.
The Paco Home Living Room Rug is a great deal in the Amazon Spring Sale. It comes in 15 colours and 10 sizes, and is even machine washable making it perfect for areas with heavy footfall.
This abstract Berber rug is perfect for those who want to add a more on-trend or contemporary look to their space. With 50 mm thick plush pile, this luxurious rug just got a bit cheaper.
When is the Amazon Spring Sale, and how long does it last?
The Amazon Spring Deal Days 2024 have now finished. However, this year's sales give us an indication of what to expect next year. A six-day event, products across a huge variety of categories were reduced from both Amazon and third-party retailers.
The Amazon Spring sale is very similar to the retail giant's Prime Day event in July, however for this one you do not need to have an Amazon Prime membership in order to get the discounted prices.

What are the biggest sale days on Amazon?
Amazon has brilliant sales throughout the year, but the biggest sale days have to be the Amazon Prime Day sale and the Black Friday sales, which usually take place at the end of the year.
The Amazon Spring Sale kicked off on 20th March 2024 and lasted for six days, with over 50% off some of the most popular items on the website. Amazon's next big sale is likely to be Amazon Prime Day, but the retail giant usually has another sale in the autumn before the huge pre-festive-season discount event in late November, Black Friday.
How do you know if the Amazon sale offers good deals?
It can be hard to know which deals are the best ones, considering that prices fluctuate throughout the year, so a sizeable percentage discount might not be as exciting as you initially thought. However, there is help out there when it comes to deciphering what makes a good deal on Amazon, with price tracker websites like camelcamelcamel keeping customers up to date with the most up-to-date prices and best deals.
Founded by tech entrepreneur Daniel Green in 2008 it was voted the most popular price-tracking tool among Lifehacker in 2015. camelcamelcamel monitors millions of Amazon products and sends out alerts when prices drop so you know the best time to buy.
When is Amazon Prime Day 2024, when is Amazon Black Friday 2024
It has been confirmed that Amazon Prime Day 2024 will take place in July, however the exact dates are yet to be announced. Black Friday in 2024 falls on 29th November this year, but the deals usually start dropping in the week before that.
Keep an eye out on the woman&home website, as we'll be keeping you up to date with all the latest Black Friday and Amazon Prime Day news and deals.
What days are the prices lowest in the Amazon sale?
Prices on Amazon tend to fluctuate a lot, so it can be hard to predict when things will be the best value. Price tracker websites like camelcamelcamel help you start up to date with what's on sale and how low prices are going, so you can jump on a great deal if it arises.
During big sales events like Black Friday, the lowest prices typically come in at the end of the sale, with Cyber Monday (the sales event on the Monday following Black Friday) seeing some of the biggest discounts in 2024. It's worth noting, however, that the most popular products do sell out quickly, so if you want to bag a particular item it could be risky to wait until the end of the event.
