Amazon Black Friday Deals
Amazon ran two major sales last Black Friday; expect a repeat this year --
Black Friday Deals and
Cyber Monday Deals. These were
Lightning Deals and some of the items sold out fast; sometimes in a matter of seconds. You really don't have time to think about it.
Amazon Prime & Prime Early Access
Don't forget, Amazon Prime members have a new perk --
Prime Early Access -- which allows members a 30-minute early access to select
Lightning Deals and daily sales events at
MyHabit; and that includes Black Friday deals. This will effectively eliminate non-Prime members from the shopping pool on certain sale items.
For those of you who aren't Prime members, Amazon offers a
30-day free trial. This trial is only for those who have never had Prime before. If you've had Prime before, the sign-up will reject you. You might be able to get customer service to allow you another 30-day trial, but that's definitely a YMMV type of thing. Full membership is $99 per year.
My advice is to wait before starting your 30-day trial until after 07 Nov. The reason for that is Cyber Monday. Last year's best Lightning Deals were during CM week. If that holds true this year, CM should run from 30 Nov to 06 Dec.
