Amazon Prime Day 2020 tips and tricks
We highly recommend reading our Amazon shopping guide here if you want to master Amazon and learn all about its hidden features.
Get an Amazon Prime free trial to get the deals
Amazon Prime costs $119 a year. You can, however, sign up for a free 30-day trial to get the deals. A neat trick is that you are fully entitled to cancel your Amazon Prime subscription after once you've got your shopping deal.
Amazon Alexa
If you ask an Alexa-enabled device, such as an Echo or Echo Dot, "Alexa, what are your deals?", you get access to Prime Day deals hours earlier as well as access to exclusive bargains. As long as you cancel the trial before the end, you won't be charged the $119 yearly subscription. Amazon hopes though that once you've enjoyed some of the benefits, you won't hit the cancel button.
To order something, say, "Alexa, what are your deals" followed by "Alexa, add [the item] to my cart. " Alexa will confirm this, but if you want, you can set up a 4-digit voice shopping pin with the Alexa app to prevent unintended purchases.
Deals of the day and lighting deals
Amazon has its usual "Gold Box Deals of the Day". However, since it's Prime Day, these sales kick into high gear. There'll be new deals, every day, including "Lightning Deals," which are limited time and sometimes end in minutes. To stay on top of everything, use Amazon's app, where you can view many deals 24 hours in advance and sign up for alerts. Go here to see deals you're watching.
You can even let the deals come to you via Amazon's daily deals email.

Prime Early Access deals
Prime Early Access deals are a type of Lightning Deal earmarked for Prime members - Amazon gives Prime members 30-minute early access to certain deals. However, all deals are available while supplies last.
