Amazon Prime Day is coming! This coveted shopping event is actually a 2 day event just for Amazon Prime members. The deals are all dropping ALL DAY LONG on Tuesday July 12 and Wednesday July 13th. This amazing online shopping event is the perfect time to get a jump start on your holiday shopping. Here I’m going to show you all the secrets to make your money go even further on Amazon. I’m willing to bet you have not heard of most of these. Let’s get started!
1. Amazon Shopper Panel – This exciting and EASY program is very new, just launched in March 2021. Amazon Shopper Panel is an invitation-only program, so watch your email for an invite to join. Simply get the Amazon Shopper Panel app and scan 10 store receipts (just about ANY store is accepted) and earn a $10 gift card each month! Your $10 gift card is applied to your Amazon account automatically within 48 hours of the end of the month where it was earned. You can also earn bonuses of $0.25-$0.50 with quick surveys that pop up in your app. I mean they are QUICK – one question. So easy. Tip: Receipts can be up to 30 days old so save any and all receipts in a separate place. When a new month begins, you’ll already have a jump start on earning your next $10. You can download the Amazon Shopper Panel app and get on the waiting list if you have not received that elusive email invite.
2 & 3 Two More ways to earn easy $20 in Amazon Credits – Get a $10 credit (watch your email for your credit once you’ve earned it) by using Amazon Assistant. Amazon Assistant is a desktop or laptop computer extension that helps you shop with confidence you’re getting the best price. When you’re shopping online it will pop up and let you know what the price is on Amazon, making price comparing easy. Get $10 by using it 5 times by June 20th. To get Amazon Assistant, {Go HERE} The second way to earn an easy $10 credit is to shop a small business on Amazon. Spend $10, get $10 back to use on Prime Day! The credit will be confirmed by an email receipt and then available to use on Monday the 21st or Tuesday the 22nd. [ GO HERE ] to get more details and more information.
4. Amazon Prime for CHEAP?! – Prime Day is open to Amazon Prime members only. Prime is $139 a year, or they do offer a monthly option to pay $12.99 a month. But, few people know that there are other ways to get Amazon Prime for even less or make the benefits go further. Here’s 4 options to make your Prime membership go further.
- Amazon Family– Just like it sounds, Amazon Family allows you to share your Prime benefits with other adults and teens living in your household. Shareable benefits include the free 2 day shipping, Prime Video and Prime Photo Storage. Each person still maintains their own Amazon account with saved payment methods, wish lists, etc. The only shared components are the Prime benefits. {Go HERE for more info on Amazon Family}
- Amazon Student – Amazon Student is available to college students. There are several really generous benefits including a 6 MONTH FREE TRIAL and 50% off the annual Prime membership! Additional benefits are Amazon Music for 80% off, 2 Months of Kindle Unlimited, seriously discounted streaming TV channels, exclusive deals and a lot more.

5. Easy, PRACTICAL way to qualify for FREE shipping – I hate paying for shipping. Prime is the best way to avoid shipping charges but if you cannot afford or justify the cost of a Prime membership right now, I have the next best thing. Shipping is FREE with orders of $25 or more. This secret trick is a database of cheap “filler” items to get you to your free shipping threshold! For instance, let’s say I need to spend another $2.01 for free shipping. I type in $2.01 at {Filleritem.com} and it gives me a HUGE list of practical items that are right around that price target! Is that awesome or what?!
6. Amazon Digital Credits – Free shipping is great, but sometimes I know I’m not in a big hurry to receive the items. That’s when patience pays off! On some items, Amazon offers (usually $1) digital credit for the purchase or rental of movies, TV shows, etc for choosing no rush shipping. Best of all, credits STACK so after a few credits you’re looking at renting the latest blockbuster on Amazon and having a FREE movie night! {Go HERE} to learn more about No Rush Rewards
7. Amazon Warehouse– Who cares about a minor ding in the box? At Amazon Warehouse you can save a ton over retail price on anything from garbage bags to Instant Pots. This is the spot Amazon lists returned items from customers, in either like new, open box or pre-owned. Like anything else purchased from Amazon, you’re covered by the A to Z guarantee and have 30 days to return it if there’s a problem. {Go HERE} for Amazon Warehouse bargains.

This is a great place to pick up gifts or redecorate on a budget. {Go HERE} to shop Amazon Outlet

Sometimes the discounts are INSANE – 80% off or better! The group leaders then sift through all the codes and post the best ones they find. Here’s my favorite group (and the one I run!
