Amazon Prime Day, July 11

Thanks @madison85! Just ordered mine!

Thank you @Madison85 ! - I’ve always wanted to do this but $199 seemed very steep. Just bought mine :slight_smile:

I bought the $30 fire tablet. But the sale is so overwhelming that it’s hard to navigate or find out what is a good deal.

I might order the echo dot, not sure it might be too big brother for me.

Deb, agreed, it reminds me of wandering about aimlessly in IKEA, hard to know even what to look at.

I thought I’d get an instant pot, but the model with the deal isn’t the one I want. Maybe on Cyber Monday…

For any fitness enthusiasts, the Fitbit Blaze is $60 off - $139. If it wasn’t so large I’d consider it.

This website has a good list of deals: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/07/dealmaster-all-the-best-amazon-prime-day-deals-going-live-right-now/

It’s helpful! I just bought a set of three ceramic knives. The price shown on Amazon is $59.99. It says the price will be $49.99 when you check out. But the site I posted states that the final price is $39.99. Sure enough, when I checked out, the site was right!

I did get an UnderArmour long sleeve tech shirt, regularly $29.99…for $13.78!!

It may also be nice to add on/send a surprise gift to someone today experiencing sadness/loss – family problems, health, etc. I still enjoy getting that surprise card, box, anything in the real deal mail. I added a small gift of jewelry to my friend – fighting the good fight – hoping to provide a bit of joy for the day. Just a thought.

@MaineLonghorn - now you have done it. I ordered a Roomba

@veruca Me too! And i had planned to not buy anything. Just looked out of curiosity…

Thanks for the book code! Primebooks17

I ordered the $29.99 Kindle for my D that doesn’t have a tablet. I haven’t clicked on anything else yet. It is kind of overwhelming!

Check your inbox for offers from other retailers… I see about 30 emails in mine! Too busy to take a peek, but iirc, last year, there was a great deal from Saks that was offered when InstaPots were ruling Amazon! :slight_smile:

Ebates has also really upped percentages for a lot of stores today. Checking all the deals out feels like a full time job!

Ebates offered 10% rebate on Travelocity yesterday. I scored $90 on my son’s round-trip airfare from Beirut to Boston! Amazing. I love getting a check from ebates every few months. It’s always on stuff I would have bought, anyway.

Ordered a pair of New Balance tennis shoes for H. He needed a pair. Otherwise I find it overwhelming unless I search a specific item.

I caved. New Fitbit Blaze coming my way. Used my Amazon Prime CC points to make it even cheaper. You all would do the same thing, right? (looking for support so I don’t feel guilty…)

I am tempted to walk down to the Starbucks to get on the Internet with my tablet to get a peek at the deals. OTOH, maybe not. I am glad that I don’t have home Internet yet… Saves me $$! Shopping on my phone is a major PIA. So I only shop for necessaries. :slight_smile:

If you pay for your prime day purchases with your prime credit card you get an extra 10% cash back on your purchase.
