Truth be told, it feels like Black Friday and Cyber Monday were just yesterday — but the shopping events don’t stop (especially for us here at New York Post Shopping).
Amazon’s two-day anticipated shopping event, otherwise known as Prime Day, is on the horizon in the coming months. During these 48 hours, you can anticipate hot-button offers on outdoor patio furniture, top-rated air fryers, must-have headphones, investment-worthy fitness equipment and much, much more.
Though the official dates for Amazon Prime Day 2023 haven’t yet been announced, this isn’t our first rodeo. The retailer tends to dish out the deals quickly — known as “Lightning Deals” every few hours during the duration of Prime Day. From past years of researching, working around-the-clock and, of course, shopping, this is the pristine time to pick up Crest3D Whitestrips, the Keurig K-Mini Coffee Maker and the 23andMe Ancestry Service DNA Kit, namely.
Ahead, we outlined an easy-to-follow cheat sheet so you come to Prime Day 2023 fully prepared, with credit cards in tow. We also outlined top Amazon deals to shop while we’re all on the edge of our seats awaiting the confirmed dates and discounts. In short, you’ll want to keep this page bookmarked — we’ll continue to update this preview explainer as new deals arise and more information is announced.
Amazon Prime Day is a retailer-led shopping event where Prime-eligible shoppers can purchase top-rated items on sale. This is the prime time to score discounts on beauty products, fashion pieces, mattresses, kitchen items, electronics and other Amazon best-sellers.
The official dates for Amazon Prime Day 2023 haven’t yet been announced yet, but we expect this to be a two-day shopping event that will take place in early to mid-July, based on previous years. We anticipate Amazon hosting a similar batch of deals as last year, with an emphasis on practical items you can buy for less than $25.
What’s more, Amazon typically hosts deals a week or two leading up to the event. You’ll find select Amazon deals year-round, but the retailer has act-fast offers as it draws closer to Prime Day, in addition to the hottest deals right now that we outlined below.
You’re doing yourself justice by researching Amazon Prime Day months before its annual launch (though Amazon dished out not one but two Prime member-eligible events last year, but that’s another story). While you patiently wait for further announcements and the soiree of deals that is to come, you’ll want to ensure your Prime membership is locked and loaded.
If you don’t yet have a Prime membership (what are you doing?). In all seriousness, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial at any time, even during the duration of Amazon Prime Day 2023 itself. With Amazon Prime, you’ll receive free shipping and countless benefits.
After your Amazon Prime membership is in the bag, follow our coverage here at New York Post Shopping so you never miss a Prime Day 2023 announcement. We consistently dish out coverage on the deals worth your time and money so all you have to do is read one of our well-researched guides and add those waitlist-inducing products to your shopping cart.
