The prime membership will cost around $14.99 per month or $139 annually. The perks include free one/two-day deliveries for many items and access to the media library on Prime Video. College students can get a 6-month free trial which will be then followed by a discounted rate of just $7.49 per month.

Will There Be Another Prime Day Like Last Year?

Last year, Amazon hosted two prime days, one during summer and a Prime Early Access sale aka the unofficial "Prime Day 2", which gave us a second round of exclusive deals last October. 

There's no intel on whether Amazon will host another sale in 2023, but a whole lot will depend on this sale performance for the retailer.

The only way one could possibly think of is by signing up for the free trial and canceling it before it ends.
