    When is Amazon's October 2023 Prime Day sale?

    The Amazon Big Deal Days sales event (also known as October Prime Day) ran from midnight PT on Tuesday, Oct. 10 through 11:59 p.m. PT on Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023.


    What goes on sale during Amazon Prime Day?

    When Amazon holds its Prime Day sale, you can expect to find discounts on popular items across all of Amazon's departments. Amazon-branded tech (such as Fire TVs and Blink doorbells) is almost always discounted for Prime Day, as is (typically) Apple tech, Samsung tech, Roomba robot vacuums and robot mops, luggage and more. There are even deals on TikTok-famous products, like this snail goop.


    Do you need to be a Prime Member to shop Amazon Prime Day deals?

    The best Amazon Prime Day offers are reserved for Prime members. But now that the sale is over, most of the remaining deals at Amazon are available to all shoppers. Tap the button below to see all the Prime Day deals at Amazon you can still get.


    How you can sign up for Amazon Prime

    Right now, you can get a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime. Prime memberships costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year, and include access to Amazon Prime Video (Thursday Night Football) and a number of other great perks. Tap the button below to sign up.


    What other stores are holding competing Prime Day sales?

    Savvy shoppers know that any of the Amazon Prime Day events offer the perfect time to find tens of thousands of popular products on sale from Amazon, including some at their lowest price of the year. However, many other popular online and retail merchants, such as WalmartTargetBest Buy and even your favorite department stores, such as Macy's, all tend to have sales at the same time.

    The Walmart's Holiday Kickoff sale, for example, will run from Oct. 9 through Oct. 12.


    Do products on sale during Amazon Prime Day sell out?

    You bet they do -- and sometimes things sell out within hours. If you see something on sale that you want to get your hands on during the Amazon Prime Day sale, order it right away. Often, quantities are limited. Once a product is sold out at the sale price, Amazon won't always restock right away and when it does restock, the sale price likely won't be offered.


    Can products bought during Amazon Prime Day be returned?

    Unless it specifically states in the product description or near the "add to cart" and "buy now" buttons that the product being offered on sale is a final sale or not returnable, Amazon's regular return policy for that product will be honored. 

    On the right side of a product description on Amazon, just below the "buy now" button (and where it says "ships from and sold by"), look for the heading that says "returns." 

    If the text says, "eligible for return, refund or replacement within 30 days of receipt," that's the return policy that will be honored. However, you may be responsible for paying return shipping to Amazon, unless you drop off the product as a Whole Foods or Kohl's, which accepts some Amazon returns.
