Monday, July 16: Amazon Prime Day Kicks Off at 3:00 PM EDT

As you may or may not have heard, Amazon Prime Day starts Monday, July 16, 2018, at 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time. What this means is that if you’re an Amazon Prime Member, you’re going to be treated to a barrage of deal offers for roughly 36 hours beginning Monday night, July 16, at 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time.

Think of it as Black Friday (or, Cyber Monday?) in July for Amazon Prime Members.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon started Prime Day in 2015 as a way to both reward members for being loyal and as a way to induce new members to sign up. As a Prime Member, you’ll get free 2-day shipping on every order, and access to Amazon’s shows like Bosch and Transparent. And if you’re worried about paying the $10.99/per month, you can sign up for the free 30-day trial and still take advantage of the Amazon Prime Day deals.

Amazon has made some items available in advance, so we know what they are. To get you started, we’ve pulled in a couple of things that we know will be available and that will interest our readers.
