Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2024
Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2024 starts tomorrow, October 8 at 12:01 a.m. PDT and will run through October 9, 2024. If this is anything like last year’s Prime Big Deal Days sale, we will see deals that are as good as or even better than Black Friday deals! In addition, many other online retailers are planning to offer really fantastic prices and deals this week.
Amazon says this about Prime Big Deal Days 2024:
Throughout the 48-hour event, Prime members will find a wide selection of exciting deals, including costumes for the family starting at $5; deals on beauty and fashion brands like Clinique, Too Faced, Florence by Mills, Cider, and Aéropostale; and exciting savings on electronics from top brands like Beats, Samsung, and Fujifilm. They’ll also enjoy savings on toys from favorites like LEGO, Squishmallows, and Disney; up to 40% off winter fashion must-haves like sweaters and puffers from Amazon Essentials; and savings on hosting essentials and home décor from premium brands like NEST New York, Lenox, and Lodge.
Other retailers are joining in, too!
Because of how popular Prime Big Deal Days is, other major retailers have HUGE sales that week, too:
- Target Circle Week — Target is running competitive sales this week, October 6th-12th.
- Walmart Holiday Deals — Walmart will also be running competitive sales during October 8th-13th. (And Walmart+ members get early access to deals! WooHoo!)
And this is just the major retailers! We’ll see ALL kinds of great sales that week from online retailers — small and big!
How to Get The Best Deals on Prime Big Deal Days
We predict that starting October 8th (or even earlier — from other online retailers), we’ll see a flurry of deals similar to what we usually see on Black Friday week.

5 Tips For Preparing For Amazon Prime Big Deal Days
To help you prepare well to maximize your savings for Amazon Big Deal Days, here are 5 strategies we suggest:
1. Sign up for a free 30-day trial to Amazon Prime.
Not an Amazon Prime member? No worries, now is the perfect time to sign up for a FREE 30-day trial.
This way, you’ll get all of the benefits of Prime and be able to take advantage of the deals, but you won’t have to pay for a Prime subscription. At the end of the 30 days, just be sure to go into your account and cancel your subscription and you won’t be charged!
Psst! If you’re between the ages of 18-24, you can sign up for a FREE 6-month Amazon Prime trial!
2. Subscribe to our Hot Deals email newsletter.

When you sign up, we’ll send you no more than 1-2 emails each day featuring the hottest and best deals hand-picked by us as soon as they become available.

3. Follow us on Instagram.
You can find us on two different Instagram accounts on Prime Big Deal Days:
:: Crystal’s personal Instagram: Be sure to head over there and hit the follow button. She loves personally sharing the deals she’s most excited about on IG Stories. (Plus, you’ll see a lot of behind-the-scenes content including day-to-day life, grocery shopping hauls, and a lot of other fun stuff that doesn’t get shared anywhere else!)
:: Money Saving Mom Deals Instagram: You’ll also want to go follow our Instagram account that is solely dedicated to posting the top deals each day! If you follow us there, you’ll see deals pop up not only on IG Stories but also in your feed throughout the day. You’ll also get to know some of the rest of the team here, as we often show our faces on video in IG Stories! 
On Prime Days, we’ll be hopping onto IG stories on both accounts multiple times throughout the day telling you about the best deals that we’re most excited about! So be sure to follow both accounts HERE and HERE so you don’t miss anything!
4. Follow our Facebook Page
We’ll be posting all the deals all day long on our Facebook Page, and it’s one of the easiest ways to make sure you don’t miss any HOT deals! Just bookmark this page and refresh it throughout both days to keep up to date with the latest and greatest deals.

5. Make a List & Budget
If you haven’t done so already, be sure to make a list of the items you are most interested in buying, as well as the budget you have to spend. This way, you don’t just jump on a good deal because it’s “such a good deal”, when it’s not something you need or can afford.
How to Earn Free Gift Cards For Prime Big Deal Days
Want to stretch your dollars even further? Now is the time to cash out your free Amazon gift cards or spend some time over the next couple weeks earning some extra Amazon gift cards.
