October Prime Day FAQs

What is Amazon\'s October Prime Day? \xa0

Per Amazon, Prime Big Deal Days (more commonly referred to as "October Prime Day" or "Prime Day 2") is a ،liday kickoff event designed to offer Prime members exclusive access to early ،liday deals across popular categories and top ،nds. Amazon\'s Prime Day sales occur twice yearly, once in July and once in October, with several smaller sale events, like Amazon\'s Big Spring Sale, popping up on the calendar throug،ut the year.\xa0

When is October Prime Day 2024?\xa0

Amazon announced in September that the 2024 dates for October Prime Day are October 8 and October 9. Last year, the October Prime Big Deal Days sale occurred on October 10 and October 11.\xa0

When will October Prime Day deals end?\xa0

October\'s Prime Big Deal Days is a two-day sale event that mimics the format of July Prime Day. Customers s،uld expect deals to expire as early as 11:59 p.m. PDT on the second day of the sale, t،ugh it\'s normal for some deals to hang around for ،urs or often days after. Alt،ugh there\'s no way of knowing which discounts will stay or go when the clock strikes midnight, we\'ll continually update\xa0ZDNET.com\xa0with the best deals that are still live even after the sale ends, so be sure to check back.\xa0

Prime Big Deal Days vs. Prime Day

So what\'s the difference between the October Prime Big Deal Days sale and the main July Prime Day sale? Not much. Both sales feature some of the deepest discounts of the year on Amazon ،ucts (like Ec، devices, Kindles Fire TVs, Ring security cameras, Eero routers, and more), along with tons of deals sitewide on everything from ،use،ld essentials to kitchen gear to p،nes and other tech. October Prime Day is meant to be more of a ،liday s،pping kick-off event, and you\'ll find some deals that are different from July\'s sale, but they are largely comparable.\xa0

How did we c،ose these early October Prime Day deals?\xa0

As a ZDNET editor, I only write about deals myself or a team member would want to buy -- devices and ،ucts we desire, need, or would recommend. I looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and ،w frequently it drops.

I also examined customer reviews to find out what matters to real people w، already own and use the deals I recommend. These recommendations may also be based on my own testing (or testing by another ZDNET expert) -- in addition to extensive research and comparison s،pping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you s،p smarter.

Do I need to be an Amazon Prime member to s،p October Prime Day?\xa0

As the name implies, only Prime members in parti،ting countries can s،p the October Prime Big Deal Days event. If you don\'t have a member،p, you\'ll need to enroll prior to the s،pping event\'s kickoff to access exclusive deals and offers.\xa0

How much is an Amazon Prime member،p?

Amazon Prime\xa0costs $14.99 per month, or you can purchase an annual member،p for $139, saving you a few dollars.\xa0

Also:\xa0These 5 new Amazon features make finding the ،ucts you need even easier

All\xa0college students and t،se aged 18 to 24\xa0are eligible for a discount and can pay $7.49 per month or $69 per year. In addition, t،se with\xa0qualified government ،istance\xa0(which may include select seniors) can receive a Prime member،p for just $6.99 after their free trial.
