Amazon has announced that Prime Day will occur sometime this July. If you are looking to buy a Kindle e-reader, I would wait a couple of months since they tend to be on sale with deep discounts. Other Amazon devices, such as Fire Tablets, FireTV, and Ring doorbells, are normally on sale, too.
Last year’s event saw record-breaking sales and more items sold during the two-day event than any previous Prime Day event. Amazon also hit another milestone last year by delivering more than 9 billion items the same day or the next day, getting customers what they need, when they need it. And it’s not just time that customers are saving; Prime members worldwide have also saved nearly $95 billion on fast, free delivery. In the U.S., that means Prime members saved on average over $500 on their deliveries last year—nearly four times the cost of an annual membership fee.
Prime Day 2025 will return to the following countries this year: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, the U.S., and the UK.
