Well my three major gripes about this Prime Day are:

Multiple, confusing listings that were often different deals for the same product. How the heck do you know where they all are or which is the best deal for you when you might not see all of them?!? I think it would be nice if they listed all the deals for a specific item on the same page so you could see which you qualified for and make a more informed decision.
Hidden deals. After I bought my Echo for $130 using my Chase Visa Amazon card, I learned that if I had purchased $150 of deals I would have gotten $30 off. So I think that means I could have selected another $20 worth of deals and still paid $10 less! Those kind of deals and offers should have been more clear and easier to discover. An email would have been nice a few days prior to the deals.
Finding deals was a royal PITA. It still requires a lot of browsing, or what I call near blind browsing. And as usual, Amazon placed a lot of items in unrelated categories, and that makes them harder to find. Personally, I hate only getting to scroll through a single page with 30 or so items per page, then having to wait while their slow server pulls up the next page.
