Best Deals During Amazon’s Fourth of July Sale
July 2, 2024
Amazon is hosting its annual Fourth of July sale, and some deals are better than others.
Exclusive savings are available to Prime subscribers in the undiscovered Just for Prime portal. HexClad cookware, power strips, and electric toothbrushes are some of the finest member-only holiday offers, with prices as low as 91% off their regular retail prices. To take advantage of these savings and shop even more amazing bargains during Amazon Prime Day in two weeks, non-members can sign up for a free trial of Prime.
This year, the Fourth of July falls just two weeks before Prime Day, making it one of the busiest shopping days of the year. Deals in nearly every category, including ones that don’t receive as much attention on Prime Day, are available.
Although it’s impossible to claim which deal is the best, each has advantages and disadvantages of its own that could affect customers’ purchasing decisions.
With some of the lowest prices of the year offered by both events, it’s likely that during the first half of July, the two deals — along with Walmart’s anti-Prime Day sale — will merge into one massive discount extravaganza. The sale that offers the prices customers want at the stores they want to shop at will ultimately be the best one for them.
Customers who prefer shopping at Walmart can shop thousands of bargains and save hundreds of dollars starting Monday, July 8, at 5 p.m. ET and ending Thursday, July 11, at 11:59 p.m. ET. Starting at noon ET on July 8, Walmart+ members will have first dibs on the best sales of the season, enabling them to peruse and purchase anything they want five hours ahead of other customers.
This event comes right after June 23’s conclusion of Walmart+ Week. Members who booked trips through Walmart+ trips benefited from higher fuel savings as well as Walmart Cash.
