How to save money
Amazon usually offers its best deals on Prime Day in mid July, and Black Friday ahead of the holiday rush. If you're planning a big purchase ahead of these dates, it might be a good idea to wait and see what deals are offered.
If you shop at Amazon frequently, it's worthwhile to sign up for an Amazon Rewards credit card, which earns you 5% cash back or more on all of your purchases at Amazon and Whole Foods.
Subscribe & Save is another great way to save up to 15% extra on your purchases by bundling them together into monthly deliveries. Just be careful not to forget about your subscriptions or you might find yourself getting a shipment of something that you don't need anymore.
Amazon's prices generally fluctuate based on their algorithms. If you don't need something right away, add it to your cart anyway. Depending on the item, you'll sometimes see the price drop after a while.
If you're ok with preowned items or slight cosmetic damage, you can find big savings in Amazon's Warehouse deals. Items are generally like-new with a 30-day money back guarantee.
