Calling all Amazon shoppers……Prime Day is here. For some of us this is a big deal. So tell us….

Will you be participating with this sale event?
If yes….,who are you shopping for?
(Multiple Choice)


For Me…….I’m a maybe. I have lots of lists on Amazon with many things in them. If something is a good sale item that I need, or would be for a gift, then I will buy it. I will not be buying just to buy because it’s Prime Day - I know several people that do this. I’m not a big, “just for the heck of it”, type shopper anyway - I need to have a reason and the item has to have a purpose. I’m trying to get stuff out of my house, not bring more stuff in - LOL!

Like you, have a bunch of stuff, just window shopping. Last prime day, prices on a bunch of stuff didn't see much difference if at all. Even though it said PRIME DAY 47% OFF. Two days later, it was the same price.

I just checked two items in my cart. Same price from a few days ago, but now they have a PRIME DAY DEAL banner on the product page.

100% same for me.
Last Prime Day I told my DH - I don’t know where all these awesome sales are, because they aren’t on any of my stuff.
I have A LOT of items saved in all sorts of categories, and like you said, very little change. I thought - Amazon, you gotta do better than that to have me buy. We’ll see what happens this year
 
I'm also a maybe. I haven't thought much about it this year, but I should check my lists later.

Same as you: Maybe. I'll be watching the deals. If something good comes up on something on one of my wishlists, or if I see something that would make a great gift for someone, then I'll buy. However, I'm not specifically looking for anything, and I'm not planning to buy just to buy.
 
If I need something in my normal course, yes, otherwise no. Not shopping sales.

:offtopic: Off topic, hope you did well as the storms rolled through last night, Sandy if they were in your area.
Thanks for asking Dan - it was a rough and scary night. We had constant tornado sirens for an hour - very unsettling. We did have some BIG wind that made me very nervous about some trees, of which I still need to check on in an area I can’t see from the house.

How about you and Marie? Everything ok by you?

We're in Naperville-horrendous storms Sunday that left us with at its height 3 feet of water in the basement.What a mess.Dumpster coming on Wednesday-fan and dehumifier working overtime.

These are life changing. Never see them on sale.

We were sharing 2 sets but I just bought 2 more so we each have our own. I’m done shopping for today 😂
 
I just took a quick scan through and nothing great jumped out on me. I may find something good though at some point. It's fun to poke around.
 
I’ll check my saved items ( that will take a while 🤣❤️❤️🤣) but unless one is dirt cheap I’m not getting anything - I just ordered some items I wanted Sunday so my little spending spree is pretty much done for the month
 
Maybe. I'll have a browse but I don't expect to find anything.
 
Nothing too big - saved $5. on a nice insulated cooler backpack…I may get some more Fire Sticks..
 
I have a list (or two) that I'm going to check to see if any of the things on it are on sale. I did see a walking pad that I've had my eye on for under my desk that's 50% off, so that may get purchased today.
 
I had New Balance sneakers in my cart. They dropped $30 today (almost half off), so I bought them.
I also got 2 gift cards.
Unless kids also need sneakers, that's probably my shopping for today's Prime Day.
 
Maybe.....I'll look at things on my list but I find just looking for deals to be too much work
