If Amazon Prime Day is new to you, let’s start with the basics….

What is Amazon Prime Day ?

What started off as a single day is now actually two days –  a two-day global savings bonanza which Amazon launches once per year, exclusively for its Prime members.  Canadian Prime members join members in the United States, the UK, Spain, Singapore, the Netherlands, Mexico, Luxembourg, Japan, Italy, India, Germany, France, China, Belgium, Austria, Australia and, this year, the United Arab Emirates, in saving millions of dollars.

This year’s Prime Day begins July 15, but the Prime member savings have already begun with select early offers.  So, don’t miss out on the savings — sign up now for free for full access to all the deals.

How to Sign up for a Free Trial Membership
