Amazon Prime Day 2018 Stickied Post

Amazon Prime Day 2018 is upon us. This year Prime Day runs for 36 hours total, beginning Monday July 16th at noon PST and running until midnight PST on July 17th. These deals are available to Amazon Prime members only.

We’ll leave this post stickied to the top throughout Prime Day; regular blog posts will continue to show up on the homepage below this page. We’ll add smaller deals to this page and broader deals arise will get a dedicated post as well as being added to this page. Let us know in the comments if you see something interesting.

Links in this post contain our Amazon affiliate link (big thanks to those who support the site). Since the JetBlue portal died, we aren’t aware of any portals who offer rewards on standard Amazon purchases. There are some portals who offer cashback on select Amazon categories, such as clothing and furniture. See portal options here. Check our Complete Guide To Saving Money On Amazon (Save 8% – 27%+) for year-round tips and tricks to save money on Amazon shopping.

Prime Signup

If you’ve never tried Amazon Prime, get a free 30 day trial here which will work for Prime Day 2018 and can be easily cancelled afterward.
Students can get six months for free (requires .edu e-mail address)
You can get a monthly membership for $12.99
EBT or Medicaid users can signup for a cheaper $5.99 monthly plan.
A yearly subscription costs $119. I’d recommend against using our link though to signup for a yearly subscription since you can go through a shopping portal you can get cash back. Best rate is currently $20 through Ibotta, then Mr Rebates is $15, Topcashback offers $15. Note, these signup offers don’t include a 30-day trial. If you just want it for Prime Day, signup for the 30-day trial instead.
A lot of people are getting an offer from Amex for 3 months free of Amazon Prime (Our blog post)
