What to buy during Prime Day 2022 — and what can wait
There are a wide range of sales to take advantage of during Prime Day across Amazon and other retailers, including Target, Best Buy and more. Our experts previously told us the deepest discounts — around 50% off and above — will be on Amazon’s own in-house products like the Echo Dot, Ring Video Doorbell, Fire TV Stick and Halo View. Prime Day can also be a good time to focus on tech deals across Amazon and other retailers, especially for devices like headphones, tablets and speakers, Kristin McGrath, shopping editor at RetailMeNot, previously told us. And the deals don’t stop at physical products, either: McGrath recommended looking at digital tech subscriptions like Kindle Unlimited, Prime Video and Amazon Music for discounted and even waived monthly costs.
It’s likely that Prime Day will also push offers on summer-centric products, including vacation supplies, outdoor entertainment, school supplies and more. “This is the peak season for these products, so Amazon and third-party sellers are highly motivated to sell the entire inventory for the season now and offer end-of-the-season discounts so they don’t get stuck with any inventory past the season,” said Yoni Mazor, chief growth officer and co-founder of online marketplace auditing company GETIDA.
But there are a few products that’ll see better discounts outside of Prime Day — specifically, products that are currently priced high due to global supply chain shortages will see “little or no discounts,” said Mazor. These product categories include electronics affected by the global chip shortage and clothing that’s “heavily reliant on importing and the global supply chain,” he added. McGrath also noted that Black Friday and Cyber Monday in November may offer deeper discounts on gaming devices, while big-ticket home items like furniture and appliances will see better deals during Memorial Day and Labor Day. And though school supplies are a large portion of Prime Day sales, experts previously told us a larger selection of back-to-school tech deals, including laptops, tablets and desktop computers, will be found toward the end of July and in early August.
How long will Prime Day 2022 deals last?
Though the official start date for Prime Day 2022 is July 12, Amazon started pumping out several early Prime Day deals at the end of June. Amazon says the two-day sales event ends on July 13, and Mazor told us most sales won’t go any longer than the 48-hour mark due to limited inventory. (However, some retailers hosting competing deals on Prime Day might extend or even adopt their new pricing well beyond the savings event depending on their business model, said Mazor.) CNBC reported that Amazon may also host a second Prime Day event later this year — a first for the retailer since the inception of the mega sale — which the retailer hasn’t yet confirmed or commented on.
How to make the most out of Prime Day 2022
There are plenty of ways to make the most out of your Prime Day shopping experience, including utilizing social media groups, making a shopping list and comparing prices across retailers. Mazor also recommended doing your research: Make sure to use price checkers like CamelCamelCamel, Honey, Amazon Assistant and Keepa to compare prices — some products may be offered at a higher price during the actual event, “but you can expect these products to level back down after July 13,” Mazor said.
Below, we highlighted a few more ways you can make the most out of Prime Day this year based on our previous reporting:
Sign up to receive notifications about sales and deals. Alexa, Amazon’s virtual assistant, can notify you up to 24 hours in advance of a deal for an item on your wishlist, in your shopping cart or in your "saved for later" — you can program it to remind you when the deal goes live and even buy the product for you. Through the Amazon app, you can also add items to your wishlist and turn on notifications for your “watched and waitlisted deals.”
Utilize the Prime Day Stampcard. Amazon is offering a Prime Stampcard this year that gives Prime members a $10 credit toward Prime Day purchases — you’ll simply need to activate the virtual stampcard and complete four activities: Stream Prime Video, listen to Prime Music, borrow a Prime Reading or Kindle Unlimited book and make a Prime shipping-eligible purchase.
Check out social media groups. “Facebook groups can be very useful for finding really good deals on Amazon — they constantly dig out promo codes, coupon codes and other cool bundling offers that can pleasantly surprise you year-round, but especially during Prime Day,” Mazor noted.
