Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days are set for October 8 and 9, offering exclusive deals for Amazon Prime members. A Prime membership costs $139 annually or $14.99 monthly. For dedicated online shoppers, it’s worth investing in Prime year-round. However, there are several ways to save on your membership ahead of the sale.
Sign Up for a Free 30-Day Trial: New members or those who haven’t subscribed for the past 12 months are eligible for a free 30-day trial. Be sure to set a reminder to cancel if you don’t wish to continue past the trial period.
Prime Student Trial: College students and young adults aged 18 to 24 can enjoy a six-month free trial of Prime Student, which, after the trial, costs $7.49 per month or $69 annually.
Prime Visa: Apply for the Prime Visa card and receive a $100 Amazon Gift Card upon approval. This card offers 5% back on Amazon and Chase Travel purchases, and 2% back on gas, dining, and local transit, among other rewards.
Amazon Household: Share an existing Prime membership within your household. Two adults can share Prime benefits through Amazon Household, offering broader access without extra costs.
Discount for EBT Holders: Qualify for a discounted rate of $6.99 per month on Prime membership with an EBT card or qualifying government assistance documentation after a free 30-day trial.
Prime membership costs $14.99 monthly or $139 annually, although students and those with EBT cards can access discounted rates. For seniors, the standard fees apply but discounted rates are available for those on certain government assistance programs.
