- What is Amazon Prime day?
When is Amazon Prime day?
What deals can you expect?
I have the answers.
I'm the deal guy, Matt Granite.
Great to be with you.
This is the one stop shop for savings,
your biggest daily deals, and as we count down
our Prime day, I am going to hook you up
with more savings than anyone else.
If you've seen me before, there's a very good chance
you've seen me on www.amazon.com.
I am a live show host for Amazon.
I work as an independent contractor for them.
I also provide deal content for USA Today
and T.V. stations across the country,
and I am not speaking on behalf of Amazon
with what I'm about to say.
I'm gonna rank my favorite deals,
and more importantly, if you wanna know
when Amazon Prime day is or see some of the
early deal drops, expand the video description box
right under me, I have the dates listed right there.
But, more importantly I wanna get to the deals
that you can expect.
I have so many questions from the amazing
viewers of this channel.
By the way, bedsheets, that was a deal too.
If you are not a subscriber,
I'm doing a huge Prime Day giveaway.
It's going to include a free laptop,
a bunch of Echo products, and some crazy action cams
and other deals.
So, I'm gonna talk about the giveaway,
and also the deals that you can come to expect right here.
So first of all, what is Amazon Prime Day?
This is Amazon's attempt to supersede
Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
And, they do actually offer more deals
than both of those saving days combined.
That doesn't mean that every deal is an amazing deal.
And, a lot of people will use those hashtags,
"Epic Prime Day fail.
"Worst Prime Day ever.
"I hate Amazon."
And, the reason they're doing that is
they did not attack Prime Day with a plan.
Just on Black Friday or Cyber Monday,
whether you're shopping a store or online,
you have a list, you have the items that know you need,
generally for Christmas, or Hanukkah,
or another holiday event, and you go in
looking for specific items.
The problem with Amazon, and since they do sell everything,
a lot of people expect all of the best deals
to be spoon-fed to them.
And, so many independent stores on Amazon
have their deals.
So, while you will get some amazing Fire tablet deals,
which I'm going to have, and the Echo Spot reduced,
and the Echo Show which is gonna be
just another massive deal.
That's the Amazon Alexa voice service
built in with a video screen,
and intel processor, dolby audio.
Action cams from other independent retailers.
You're also going to get cat nail clippers,
you're going to get the random set of pliers
you didn't think you needed, bubble bath, candles.
They're all reduced, amidst all of the
Smart Home products, and amongst many
of the other Sony deals that will drop.
And there's gonna be some amazing
Sony 4K T.V.'s on Prime Day.
I should mention that as well.
As well as the tremendous DSLR deals
and some bundles for Prime Day.
So, those are deals, and my job this year
is going to make sure that you score those deals
and I'll also tell you what not to buy.
We'll get into that in a moment.
By the way, if you are not yet subscribed,
we'll go through that again at the end,
but make sure you subscribe to my channel,
'cuz I do wanna hook you up.
And, I get a list of all of the Prime Day deals early,
and I'm going to make sure you grab
the best ones, right here.
So, all right, what do we need to know about Prime Day?
If you look at all of the deal rankings
over the course of the year, this is how I would rank
my favorite deal days.
First is Prime Day.
Two years ago, I wouldn't have said that
but now it's Prime Day.
Then it's Cyber Monday, then it's Black Friday,
and then under that I would put
many of the other shopping occasions.
The day of the 11's is in there,
right after that and then Labor Day,
Fourth Of July, Memorial Day.
All of those other long holiday shopping weekends.
Columbus Day, those are in there as well.
Prime Day really is in a league of it's own.
But, amidst all the good, there could be
just as many deals I wouldn't buy.
So, when you have a 120,000 deals,
there's usually a list of 50 or 60
that I build to make sure you get everything.
I'm gonna hook you up with that.
Got a lot of questions about iPhone deals on Prime Day.
That's not a thing.
Apple does not play that well with Amazon.
They're not gonna reduce their smart phones.
But, there will be some incredible Motorola deals
tied to the Prime Day phone incentives.
So, if you are looking for an Android based phone,
you are gonna do really well on Prime Day.
Tablets, a huge thing.
The Echo products are all gonna see
massive reductions, laptops.
And again, I'm not speaking on behalf of Amazon,
I'm just telling you what I know
as a deal hunter.
And, I wanna make sure you get hooked up.
The shelf behind me is full of
massive Prime Day deals.
Again, headphones are gonna be such a big thing
this Prime Day.
Noise cancellation headphones.
Some of the earbuds that a lot of people
are very excited by.
There's going to be drone deals, bedding, soft goods.
This is a really great day to load up.
And again, once the week of July tenth begins,
you will have basically two and a half days
to lock in the biggest savings.
I'll be your guide, I'm gonna hook you up,
I'll do all the unboxings, all of the demos,
I'm gonna be with you live on Prime Day,
and of course, extend the video description box
for the dates that you need to know.
And then any of the links that you
desperately need for Prime Day.
I've made sure to include that too.
So, there you are.
I know there was a lot of information,
but I just wanna make sure you are prepared,
and I wanted to be first to tell you
about Amazon Prime Day 2018.
So, thank you for watching.
And a reminder, I'm gonna be giving away
so many Prime Day items
