It is the mega retailer's biggest sale of the year which usually takes place during the summer months. The sale is also a way to encourage people to become prime members as the deals are exclusive for members only.



 

For starters, make sure you are a prime member. You can easily sign up for an annual or even a monthly membership. As per CNBC, Amazon will be offering "invite only" deals where members of the prime club can invite others to avail of discounts on certain fast-selling items. 



 

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.

Prime Day is famous for pushing its own devices and services in the market and this year is no exception. You will find some of the best discounts on Amazon's own devices.

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.
