Shoppers can expect deals on TVs, outdoor furniture, kitchen appliances, and the latest headphones. Last year, Walmart also held a “Holiday Kickoff” sale to coincide with Prime Day 2, giving customers a jumpstart on their holiday shopping, so expect something similar for the summer sale.

Best Buy is also competing with Prime Day by holding its annual 4th of July sale for the past few years. This event features discounts on TVs, Apple products, laptops, and more. You might even find home theater systems at reduced prices, perfect for enhancing your living room or media room. The sale will be around July 4, so be sure to watch out for it.

Early Prime Day 2024 DealsAmazon Prime Day is packed with deals, with new products being discounted every hour through various limited-time lightning deals. Prime Day 2024 will feature some of the best discounts available on TVs, kitchen appliances, Apple products, vacuums, and more. For now, there’s a few great deals to consider before the big sale kicks off.

Our favorite early deals are definitely on the freebies for Prime members including five months of Amazon Music Unlimited and three months of Audible Premium Plus all at no additional cost. But, there’s also already considerable discounts on Amazon devices like Echo speakers or Kindle e-readers, so it’s worth checking out these offers right now as well. We’ll leave our top deal recommendations just here for your convenience.

3-Months Audible Premium Plus for Free

New Subscribers 3 Free Months of Audible Premium Plus

Audiobooks are an excellent way to experience stories, and Audible is the best place to shop around for the latest hits, including the recently released Andrew Garfield-led 1984 adaptation. If you’ve been wanting to try out Audible, we’ve got some excellent news for you: they’ve brought back their limited-time offer to get your first three months for free for Prime members, alongside a BOGO deal where you can get two audiobooks from their selection for just one credit.

5-Months Amazon Music Unlimited for Free

5 Free Months of Amazon Music Unlimited

Are you sick of Spotify gouging your subscription price up every year? It could be time to give Amazon Music Unlimited a try, especially with this new 5-months free offer for Prime members. That’s almost half a year of free high-quality music streaming, saving you almost $50. That’s a bargain, and well worth considering.

Reminder: if you’re not currently subscribed to Amazon Prime, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial here which will cover you through the event, otherwise it’s $14.99/month or $139/year.

When is Amazon Prime Day This Year?Amazon Prime Day 2024 will be held on July 16-17. Based on previous years, we expected Prime Day 2024 to fall sometime during the second week of July. The two-day event was held from Tuesday, July 11 to Wednesday, July 12 last year, so we were guessing it would be July 9 – 10 or July 16-17. It has since been confirmed to be line up with our second guess, so Prime Day will run from 12:01 AM local time on July 16 to 11:59 PM on July 17.

What About Prime Day 2?Amazon Prime Day 2 is also held later in the year before Black Friday. This second big deals event started in 2022 and was continued last year in 2023. This year, we expect to see Prime Day 2 once again, most likely in October. Like July’s Prime Day, this one will also likely take place during the second week of the month. While this October Prime Day isn’t as good as Black Friday, it is still worth browsing if you’re looking for deals.
