The Best 2020 Amazon Prime Day Deals for Travelers

Amazon Prime Day kicks off on October 13 this year. It was pushed from July, when it usually happens, due to the pandemic. Are you ready?

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is like Black Friday but for Prime Members only. If you are not a Prime Member already Amazon is offering a 30 Day Free Trial so you can take advantage of all the great deals on October 13th!

After the 30 day trial, it costs $119 per year or $12.99 per month.

This gives you free 2-day shipping, unlimited photo storage (we love this), Prime Video subscription, and much more.

When is Amazon Prime Day?

This year the event will start at 12 midnight PST on October 13, 2020, and end at 11:59PM PST on October 14, 2020.

We have been Prime members for a while now and always end up buying something on Prime Day.
