Amazon #PrimeDay, July 15, 2015

Amazon is celebrating their 20th birthday by establishing Prime Day.  Customers have the opportunity to try out a new Amazon Prime membership for thirty days at no cost.

Amazon announced the special event on Monday, June 6, 2015 by stating  "Step aside Black Friday, meet Prime Day."  It is Christmas in July for everybody that uses their Prime membership, whether the membership is already paid for or being used on a trial basis.

I am pleased that my online friends can take advantage of the deals that will be offered.  The celebration starts at midnight on July 15, 2015 and deals are posted as often as every ten minutes throughout the day.

Yes!

Amazon welcomes you to sign up for the 30 day trial

 and cancel your membership!

I tried my membership out before I bought into it so why shouldn't you?!  When you sign up you will get immediate access to the Prime membership benefits.  

Expect to see a lot of tech and game deals, but Amazon assures us that there will be something for everyone which will include items for summer adventures, family road trips, back to school supplies and everyday essentials.  

Just like Black Friday you'll want to 

mark you calendar and set your budget for Prime Day.

Happy shopping!  

Oh, My. Cyber Monday!

Black Friday started on Thursday and rolled over into the weekend.  Now we're at Cyber Monday.  Gosh, will the best deals be available on Tuesday?  When I hit two for two of the items I had been looking for as being "sold out" within the first hour I decided to quit.

On our Shopping page we have direct links for Cyber Monday Deals Week, Deal of The Day, and deals that are available through Amazon Mom.  If you're going to be shopping for deals on Cyber Monday we've tried to make it a little easier for you.  Those bargains are out there and actually, I found one of those "sold out" items was available through Amazon.  They had a better price too!  Hope you have the same experience.

Count Down to Thanksgiving/Take a Deep Breath

We're counting down to Thanksgiving.  Schools are on break and the stores are mobbed.  Black Friday seems to have turned into a two week event.  It's a hectic time for everyone.

Stop.  There is no need to get caught up in it.  Take a deep breath.  Take another deep breath and think about something - anything that you have to be thankful for.

So far we have learned that those LED Christmas lights that were guaranteed for 250,000 hours two years ago are no longer carrying the same guarantee.  We had thought that 28 plus years of bulb life was a little excessive.  We've learned that the bargain turkeys of five years ago now carry a prime price.  Guess we all bragged about are bargain and turned into a everyone's desire.  We have also learned that when pre-lit trees are not 100% functional, wire cutters are a big help!  Oh, we've learned that a deep breath helps too!

Take a deep breath and know that we're thankful for you.
