Black Friday Prime Day is finally here, and Amazon has a ton of amazing deals in store. But with thousands of products to choose from, and new deals starting as often as every five minutes, it's easy to get lost and think that you're actually in the Amazon. To help you on this hunt, we here at TPG are scouring Amazon all day to find the best deals that might be worth a look. And while the discounts are exciting in and of themselves, there are also ways to maximize your return on Amazon spending during this two-day sale, which you can read about at the end of the post.
Earlier today we wrote about deals on tablets and e-readers, with All-New Amazon Fire 7 Tablets available for $25. However, we're now seeing an even better promotion where you could get one (with more storage plus a case) for just $2, as discovered by Deals We Like.
Normally, you can purchase an All-New Fire 7 Tablet (7" display, 32 GB) and Fire 7 Tablet Case as a bundle for $94.98 (Amazon.com Price: $94.98 as of 08/15/2019 2:15pm EST - Details). As a part of today's sale, that bundle is supposed to drop to $47.99 at checkout.
However, there is currently an additional $26.99 discount that is automatically being added at checkout, bringing the cost down to $21. Then, if you were targeted for the 20% discount by using just one Amex Membership Reward point, you'll get an additional $19 off, bringing the cost down to just $2 before taxes. Just make sure you apply only one Amex point to your order.
Here are the colors you can choose from:
Note that many of the colors will say that they are temporarily out of stock. However, you are still able to place your order — you'll just need to wait two to three months for it to be delivered.
Maximize Your Purchase
Don’t forget, you can maximize your rewards on Amazon purchases by using a credit card such as the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature, Chase Freedom Unlimited, Citi® Double Cash Card or The Blue Business®️ Plus Credit Card from American Express.
