It’s the calm before the storm…well, kind of. Amazon Prime Day starts (and ends) this week, and it’s almost here. We’ve been preparing — making shopping lists, filling up wish lists, practicing our “add to cart” clicking skills — and we’re finally ready. We know we’re not going to be able to check everything off though. Prime Day Deals are super limited, both in time and stock, and with basically everyone in the world shopping at once, it can be hard to secure something before it sells out!
That’s why one of the best times to shop…is actually before Prime Day even begins. There are some secret, hidden deals already up that not everyone knows about. We’re talking all kinds of items, from household essentials, to tech, to fashion and beauty. Ready to snag a few before the real race begins? Let’s do it!
