This is the announcement that online deal hunters have been waiting for: Amazon has revealed that Amazon Prime Day 2021 (technically two days) returns June 21 and 22, marking 48 full hours of discounts for Prime members across every category, including tech, fashion, beauty, toys, home goods, and more. It’s a two-day event that has come to rival major shopping holidays such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and Prime members also score early access to savings.
For those who have yet to try a virtual assistant, Amazon Prime Day is also an opportune time to get deals on Amazon devices. The company typically rolls out deep discounts on its Alexa-powered speakers, e-readers, and other home and auto electronics, including the latest versions of the Echo Dot, Echo Show, Fire TV, Fire tablet, Kindle, and others.

And on June 17, Amazon Music is dropping the Prime Day Show, a three-day exclusive event featuring performances by Billie Eilish, H.E.R., Kid Cudi, and more Grammy-winning artists. The visuals-heavy show will be available to Prime members on Prime Video.
How to Shop Amazon Prime Day
In order to take advantage of major markdowns, you’ll need to make sure you have a Prime membership. The e-commerce giant currently has a 30-day free trial for new members, so it’s a good idea to sign up ahead of time. Savvy shoppers will also want to sign up for notifications in order to get access to personalized deals as early as possible.
On June 10, Amazon announced early deals for Prime members, including 40 percent off select smart home devices, and 15 percent or more off select LG and Sony televisions plus 10 percent back when you use your Amazon Prime credit card.
You can also enjoy an additional $10 off when you install Amazon Assistant on your web browser. The free browser extension is available for Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Android smartphones. The app allows shoppers to compare deals, update and manage wish lists, see personalized recommendations, and more. Once installed, you’ll earn the $10 credit when you visit the Amazon Assistant five times within 14 days.
Another easy way to save is by making a purchase via Amazon’s smartphone app before Prime Day ends on June 22 at 11:59 p.m. PST. Eligible Prime members can get $5 off their next order of $10 or more when they use the company’s app. Shoppers can enjoy a $10 credit to use during Prime Day when they spend the same amount now through June 20 on small businesses.
Amazon Prime Day is also a great time to take advantage of the online marketplace’s other convenient offerings, such as Prime Wardrobe. The service lets shoppers try eight items (including clothing, footwear, jewelry, and accessories) for free before buying, and the seven-day try-on period and free shipping label make it easy to return unwanted pieces. The retailer recently announced that customers can save $15 when key keep $100 worth of items from their first Prime Wardrobe order, and the company will also unveil fashion deals in the weeks to come on its Instagram and TikTok accounts.
Other year-round Prime membership perks include free streaming on Amazon Music, free books on Prime Reading, access to movies and TV shows on Prime Video, and discounts on Audible books.
