The evening of July 10th marks the start of Amazon’s 3rd annual Prime Day. Click here to see the Prime Day deals. Prime Day is Amazon’s annual deals event just for Prime members…. Think Black Friday in the middle of the summer! BUT If you are not a Prime member, you can’t participate! So now is the time to join!! And you can even try it for 30 days free!! Amazon really wants Prime Day to be one of the world’s best days to shop, with great deals and prices on everything we’re into. They will have new deals starting as often as every five minutes and special offers across everything included with Prime—from music and video to reading and voice shopping.

And because of these great deals, it is the PERFECT time to gift a friend or family member with a membership!! And if you are a student, you get a 6-month free trial Prime membership!!

Are you not sure you want to become a Prime Member? Read my article about whether Prime Membership is worth it! I’ve been a member for 12 years now, and there is no question I will renew each year! Read this article to find out why.
