Amazon announced that their Prime Day had been postponed earlier this year, but now details have emerged of the fifth Prime Day.
The event, which is exclusive to Amazon Prime subscribers will see offers span over the course of two days this month with offers also on Amazon Prime Video, Music and Reading.
Amazon Prime day is available for subscribers, however, if you have not joined Prime you could take out a free 30-day trial ahead of the event, which can be cancelled at any time.
When is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day will place in the 48 hours between 13 October, from one minute after midnight to 11.59 pm on 14 October.
What can you buy on Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day has moved on from being only about electronics. However, many of the best deals come on Amazon's own products such as Fire TV sticks and Alexa Voice Remotes, Fire tablets and Kindles.
Is Prime Day only on Amazon?
While Amazon started the day, others have been quick to compete with the many offering discounts at the same time. Currys’ have previously held their Black Tag event while John Lewis, Debenhams, eBay and Feel Unique have also offered competitive deals.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
