Amazon Prime Day 2017 is less than 24 hours away which means you’re in store for some awesome deals. Why is that? Well, for those of you who don’t know, Amazon Prime Day is one of best shopping “holidays” that goes on an annual basis. Some people are even bold enough to compare it with Black Friday and Cyber Monday… And believe it or not, they are actually correct! Amazon Prime Day is at the same level (some would argue that it’s even bigger) with Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Take 2016 as an example – FBIC analyst Deborah Weinswig estimated around $525 million in sales during that day. Others estimate around $500 and $600 million which is much higher from 2015’s $415 million projected sales. Amazing, right?
Keep in mind that you will have to be enlisted in Amazon Prime if you want to completely enjoy in Amazon Prime Day 2017 (there are deals which are open for everyone !). That’s why, if you haven’t signed up already, make sure you at least get a free trial

You don’t feel like registering for Prime? You’ve already wasted your free trial? No worries! You will still be able to get your hands on a few deals that aren’t Prime-only.

What is Amazon Prime Day?
You can think of Amazon Prime Day as Black Friday On Steroids for Amazon Prime users. This new shopping event has racked up impressive numbers in 2016 and 2015 and 2017 could lead to something magnificent… mostly for Amazon, of course.
While Black Friday and Cyber Monday are both in November, Amazon Prime Day is in the middle of summer. Why is that important? Well, with December (and the whole gifting season) being just around the corner for BF and CM, there’s a huge aura of gifting in the air. Needless to say, a huge portion of those deals was for gifting purposes… On the other hand, Amazon Prime Day is nowhere near any “gifting” occasions, with birthdays being only exceptions. That’s why you are free to use it for personal shopping for goods and/or accessories which will help you in your day-to-day routine.
How does Amazon Prime Day work?
Basically, if last year taught us anything, it’s that there will be 2 types of deals during the entire 30-hour cycle. Additionally, there will also be deals which are available to everyone and not just Prime members, but we aren’t going to focus on those at the moment.
1st type – Prime Day Deals
Prime Day Deals last throughout the entire event. They’re well-stocked and offer one-day and two-day shipping options so you can be sure your purchases will arrive ASAP. They are considered as the basis of Amazon Prime Day since they attract the majority of customers.
2nd type – Lightning Deals
On the other hand, Lightning Deals are these crazy listings that often last for a very short period of time. There’s a fixed number of deals that can be reserved and when that small bar reaches 100%, Lightning deals is finished and you’ll get your item in a day or two. Keep in mind they’ll appear in quick intervals; roughly 5 minutes apart.
When is Amazon Prime Day 2017?
The first Amazon Prime Day was held on July 15, 2015 on their 20th Anniversary. It featured incredible deals and was, even then, compared to Black Friday. Truth be told though, there was a lot of skepticism at the time, fueled by a small fall of Amazon shares at the time. As you can see, Amazon swept the floor with skeptics as its Prime Day continued to grow.
In 2016, Amazon Prime Day was on July 12th, 3 days prior to their 21st anniversary. As I mentioned earlier, $415 million were the projected sales of 2015. 2016, on the other hand, went somewhere between $500 and $600 million. What’s in store for us in 2017? We’ll see in a couple of days!
In 2017, Amazon Prime Day is scheduled for July 11. But, since Amazon Prime Day lasts for 30 hours, that means the sales will swing into July 10 as well. To be more precise, Amazon Prime Day 2017 starts on 10 July 2017 at 6pm BST.
Most important facts about Amazon Prime Day
- Amazon Prime Day lasts roughly 30 hours.
- First Amazon Prime Day was held on Amazon’s 20th anniversary
- Amazon Prime Day was the most important day for Amazon in 2016.
- It’s on par with other similar events such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Should I Sign Up For Prime?
Well, if you love relaxing with TV series, watching tons of movies and getting the best deals out there… and get them quickly… then yes, you should definitely sign up for Amazon Prime. Not only do you get free one-day/two-day shipping but you also get other perks such as specialized restaurant deliveries, head start on Lightning Deals. Or perhaps you’re a book person? Luckily, Amazon Prime has you covered for that too with Prime Reading which includes eBooks, magazines, comics and audibles. Even gamers can profit from it. Wonder how? It’s simple – with Twitch Prime (free monthly gaming content) and Prime Savings (exclusive preorder discounts for virtually all gaming platforms).
So yeah, Amazon prime is a nice thing to have. If not for the best deals, then surely for everything that was listed above! On the other hand, even if you’re somehow unimpressed with all those awesome traits, you should still at least sign up for free trial to get the best deals during Amazon Prime day tomorrow.
