Amazon Prime Planning Major "Black Friday" Event, July 15

They may value Prime members more than broke college students. /:slight_smile:

LOL @romanigypsyeyes I though maybe a cooling pad was something nice to help you sleep during the summer. I was a little disappointed to look it up and see what it is :slight_smile: You can see what phase of life I’m entering, stupid hot flashes.

@movemetoo I thought the same thing. Was hoping to get one for my bed.

ACK! I thought I wrote laptop cooling pad. Oops!

No, no other cooling pads for me. I’m ALWAYS cold… like even now it’s in the 70s and sticky out and I’m sitting under a blanket.

You could not be more wrong! Amazon was one of the very best tools I had as a student. Always recouped a full membership in the first days of school and I splurged for the full one.

.^^ just wait, Romani…your time will come…:wink:

I, too, thought it was something for a bed…or the dog’s bed…

^Agree with the above. Amazon has good customer service whether you are Prime, Student Prime or no prime at all. Sure beats schlepping around to stores, looking for parking, and wasting gas to get there and back. I always comparison shop online for my online purchases and over 50% of the time, Amazon provides the best price. Never had problems with returns or exchanges.

Uh… (pretty) broke college student here and have been using Prime since I became a broke college student 6 years ago.

We did have a cooling pad for our older dog before she passed away. Of course, she preferred to use the cool bathtub to soothe her arthritic joints rather than the expensive cooling pad we bought her…

I’m not sure if a I will make any impulse moves tomorrow but I did get a daily deal today. I had a 40 GB memory stick sitting in my card when the larger ones went on sale so I jumped.

Wow - unless I’m missing something, I’m beyond underwhelmed by what they are offering. What a lot of hype for nothing.

Definitely under underwhelming so far!

Agree. Little of interest and they disappear fast. I bought some undies. Big whoop

Macys advertising Free shipping - no minimum- first time ever
Guess they want to get in on the fun

The deals are unimpressive. Wonder, though, if people are buying to resell on ebay, like the Target Lilly Pulitzer fiasco.

LOL the comments on Amazon’s facebook page are pretty hilarious.

This seems like an epic fail on Amazon’s part. I understand that it was a gimmick but I’m surprised at how BAD everything is.

Jeez, if this is “better than Black Friday”, guess I’m free the day after Thanksgiving…

Got an extra Fire stick. No biggie but still a good deal at 24 dollars!

No cat litter or food on sale. Bummer. Not worth my time. :slight_smile:

A big meh.
Reminds me of their alerts when something in my shopping cart changes price by $.20

The shoes I want are not less than they were yesterday.
