Are These Good Deals?
While this list gives us a better idea of the savings you’ll get tomorrow, for the most part it’s still not very specific.
Retailers sometimes inflate prices to make discounts appear better than they really are. For example, if a sweater usually costs $10 and a store increases the price to $20 with a 50% discount, you’ll pay the same amount you did before the sale.
So I recommend you compare prices before you buy! Also make sure you’re aware of Amazon’s return policies, which vary based on the type of product you purchase.
Bottom Line
Amazon Prime Day starts tomorrow, July 15, 2015, at 12:00 am Pacific Time. During this sale Amazon will have discounts on thousands of items ranging from toys and clothing to electronics.The list gives us a much better idea of the products that will be on sale. However, it’s still unclear how much you can actually save on most sale items. So be sure to compare prices and know the return policies before you buy!
Prime Day is only open to Amazon Prime members, but there’s still time to sign-up for a membership!
