This is one of my favorite days of the year and when I accidentally wrote the title of this post in caps I decided to leave it as that truly shows my excitement. And because Mark asked me yesterday I realized perhaps not everyone knows what this means – for 48 hours (Tuesday, October 13th and Wednesday,October 14th) Amazon Prime members can get massive deals in nearly every category of the site. Some deals last for the whole 48 hours, some are a limited quantity and only last until that number of items have sold and some are lighting deals, only valid for a few hours.
I have been a Prime member since University and currently have Amazon accounts in six countries (crazy I know but when my backup phone charger stopped working in Italy last week you better believe I Italian Amazon Primed a new one to my hotel… 🙂 ). And while you can go a bit crazy with the sales I always find it is best to make a list of the things you need / have been looking out for before you log on and then do some focused shopping or else you can get carried away. It is great for tech items (often where you will find the biggest sales) and also every day household goods. Take a look at the 12 items I put in my cart this morning:
1 | Bliss Rose Gold Rescue Face Wash Cleanser
2 | Women’s Goldie 2.0 Sneakers
3 | Hypervice Vyper 2.0 High-Intensity Vibrating Roller
4 | Chinese Laundry Women’s Erin Ankle Boot
5 | Sunthim Globe Outdoor String Lighting
6 | Running Girl Strappy Sports Bra
7 | Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder
8 | Veken French Press Coffee Maker
9 | T3 – Whirl Trio Interchangeable Styling Wand
10 | SanDisk 256GB Ultra SDXC UHS-I Memory Card
11 | Insulated Rose Gold Wine Tumbler with Lid
12 | Leather Apple Watch Band
I am quite happy with how my Prime Day 2020 is shaping up and I will be checking out in the next few minutes to make sure I will not be missing any of these deals – though you better believe there will likely be a few more purchases before Wednesday evening – hello, lightening deals! And not everything will be on sale – I was hoping that the Theragun Elite Massage Gun would be on sale as well as the Dyson Supersonic Hairdryer but alas, I may have to wait for Black Friday for those two!
And for my friends in the UK, I know many of the deals are different but I have not forgotten about you – here are the items I am buying (and they will all be at my london flat by friday)!
These are just my top picks but if you are looking for anything in particular, just shout!
Will you be buying anything during Prime Day 2020?

Yes indeed, I got a lot of Christmas shopping done. Some great deals on headphones, speakers and I snuck in a few things for myself.
They really are the masters of marketing and I love being a prime member and not worrying about shipping or wrapping or searching in vain for basic things. I press a button and poof, the items magically appear.
Great plan.

I’ve been such a big fan of Amazon and Amazon prime for years now. The prime days are just the best. The prices they have are really hard to be anywhere else.

Oh my gosh thanks for the reminder. This is such a great shopping opportunity. So glad I didn’t miss it entirely. I will check out your suggestions and I have a few things I’ve been meaning to purchase as early Christmas gift. The prices are insane.
Tori says
I have already put in an order but you sure did find some fantastic bargains so I am off to shop some more.
Thanks for the great finds 😍
