Everything you need to know about Amazon Prime Day 2022

Amazon Prime Day is nearly upon us and shoppers will be gearing up to browse all the latest deals that are set to be on offer. But what is Amazon Prime Day and how can shoppers take part to get the best bargains?

Ahead of the big day we have compiled a handy guide below to answer all the key questions you may need to know before you shop. It's important to note that Prime Day 2022 takes place on the Amazon website only, nowhere else.

However, because the sales event entices many shoppers across the UK and world, other retailers take the opportunity to hold their own sales around the same time and we have already seen this happening with the likes of Wowcher, Boots, Sky, O2, and more holding their own sales.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is one of Amazon's biggest sales events of the year, aside from Black Friday which takes place in November. It's a day for Amazon Prime members to shop thousands of products on the Amazon website that will be reduced.

Discounts will take place on a range of products with huge reductions on everything from tech, Amazon's own devices like the Echo Dot, groceries and more.

When is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day 2022 takes place on Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday July 13. The event will run for 48 hours and will offer the best deals between those dates.

However, there is reductions already happening now with deals going live earlier this week and at the weekend before the event. Keep up to date with this here.

How to take part and shop on Amazon Prime Day 2022

In order to get the best deals during Amazon Prime Day shoppers must be a member of Amazon Prime. Only members of Prime will have access to the deals before they go live and only Prime members will be able to buy selected products at a certain price.

Non-Prime members may still be able to shop some of the sale, but not all of it, and the deals plus the prices won't be the same.

If you're not a member of Amazon Prime then you can sign up for a free 30 day trial here. After 30 days the membership costs £7.99 a month or £79 for the year. With Amazon Prime you not only get to shop in the Prime Day sale, but you also get Prime Video, unlimited Premium delivery, unlimited music streaming, unlimited photo storage and unlimited reading. Find out more or sign up here.
