Amazon announce Prime Day dates - and it will last for two days this year

Bargain hunters will be pleased to know that they don't have to wait until the end of November and Black Friday to get their fix. 

That's thanks to a worldwide summer sale from Amazon Prime -  the tech giant's popular paid subscription service. 

The sale - known as Amazon Prime Day - promises more than a million" deals on everything from TVs and laptops to furniture and fashion, writes Mirror Online. 

This year's sale will take place over 48 hours - starting at one minute past midnight on Monday July 15.

It will also feature the biggest Prime Day deals ever seen on Alexa-enabled smart devices.

Other items expected to be discounted include tech, kitchen, grocery, toys, fashion, furniture, everyday essentials and more.

You'll need to be signed up to Amazon Prime to bag the deals, either as a full member, a student, or on a free 30-day trial , with new deals announced every few hours over the two day sale period.

To get us excited for the big event, a selection of early deals are live on amazon.co.uk/primeday from today, with new deals going live throughout the lead up to Prime Day.

As well as an extended time period, also new for Amazon Prime Day this year are featured Lightning Deals, which are essentially jaw-dropping prices on top brands but with limited quantities, meaning that they could sell out fast. 

Talking about what Amazon has in store for Prime Day 2019, Jeff Wilke, Amazon CEO Worldwide Consumer, said “Get ready, as we pull back the curtain to reveal exclusive products, special performances and two full days of phenomenal deals this Prime Day. 

“Our vision is that Prime Day should be the absolute best time to be a member - when you can enjoy shopping, savings, entertainment and some of the best deals Prime members have ever seen. Stay tuned as we reveal thousands of new product launches, as well as world-class entertainment and more, leading up to Prime Day on July 15 and 16.”
