TECH BYTE: Save on Tech on Amazon Prime Day
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — Amazon Prime Day is coming up!
It’s a great time to save on the company’s tech brands, and plenty of other products.
Amazon Prime Day might be July 11 through 12, but you can already take advantage of plenty of deals now.
Keep in mind, you do have to be a Prime member to participate in the two-day event.
Right now, if members spend $50 or more on an Amazon eGift Card by July 10, they get a $5 credit to use for Prime Day, or any other future eligible orders.
Members who love to read can also get three months of Kindle Unlimited for free.
If you’re in the market for a voice assistant, Amazon already has its 5th generation Echo Dot on sale.
The e-commerce site says it’s its best sounding Echo Dot yet, with improved audio for clearer vocals, deeper bass, and vibrant sound in any room.
This Echo Dot model is more than half off, and will cost about $23.
Amazon also has deals for this device as a bundle.
You can get the 5th Generation Echo Dot with a cool Mandalorian Baby Grogu-inspired stand for 41 percent off at about $46.
Because everything is better with Star Wars – especially a cute Baby Yoda figurine.
It’ll be more difficult to get your hands on just a Star Wars Echo stand though.
Members will need to request an invite to be able to purchase the product if they want Darth Vader, a stormtrooper, or The Mandalorian himself.
Since there are limited quantities, if you’re one of the lucky ones who gets picked, one of those stands will cost about $30 at 25 percent off.
And it’s only one per customer.
Another great invite-only deal is for the Amazon Fire TV 43″ Omni Series 4K UHD smart TV.
It’s hands free, and includes Alexa.
This TV is 75 percent off, and will cost about $100.
Again, you’ll have to request an invite to purchase.
Other Amazon Fire TVs are also on sale, but the good news is you don’t need an invite to take advantage of those deals.
Amazon says you can find the best deals on its Prime Day homepage online, or in the Amazon app.
