Amazon is kicking off its tenth summer Prime Sale shopping event—and you don’t want to miss it. Deep discounts and not-to-be-missed deals are rolling out already ahead of the Prime Sale dates of July 16-17, 2024, and among the many, many offerings on fashion items from shoes to sunglasses for men, women, and kids. You can upgrade your wardrobe (and theirs) for less, be ready for back-to-school clothes way before September, and even stock up for the holidays.
Pro tip: Think classic staple pieces from well-known brands, such as Calvin Klein, Hanes, Levis, Ray Ban, and more.
I’ve rounded up some of the best fashion finds for Prime Day on the stuffed closet that is the Amazon website to help you avoid confusion during what can be a potentially overwhelming online shopping experience, especially if this is your Amazon Prime Sale.

When is Prime Day 2024?
Amazon’s two-day Amazon Prime Day event officially begins at 3 a.m. EST on July 16th, offering a wide variety of deals. Night owls can get a jumpstart on savings, and this incredible sale ends at 3 a.m. EST on July 17th.
Are Prime Day deals the same on both days?
Not necessarily. Some items will be “deals of the day” and last for 24 hours, so you have to act fast. There will be new deals on the second day, so it’s best to try to shop both days to get the biggest range of savings.
How does Prime Day work?
First, you have to sign up (if you aren’t already) to be a member of Amazon Prime. Pro-tip: Sign up for the free 30-day trial period before committing to a full year. If you are new to shopping on Amazon, review its layout and shopping platform functions, like search, so you can find what you need to buy.
Add your payment and shipping details ahead of time so you don’t have to fuss over them and ensure a fast checkout process. Last, download the Amazon app to your phone so you can get pinged when your dream deals go live on the site.
Do you need to be an Amazon Prime member to shop Prime Day deals?
Yes. You must be a Prime member to reap the rewards of these deals. The Amazon Prime Day sale is only for Prime subscribers.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
How to prepare for the Prime Day sale
First, make sure you have an Amazon Prime membership account. If you don’t, sign up for the 30-day free trial to test drive the subscription while you reap the benefits of the Prime sale. Search ahead of time for the items you want to buy, add them to your Amazon Wish List and sign up via the app to receive alerts for when items go on sale.
The app will also let you know about Amazon Lightning Deals—sales that last perhaps only a few hours. If you are an Amazon household, your Alexa can help you out. Enable “deal recommendations” in the Amazon Shopping section of your notifications settings. When something on your list goes on sale, you’ll get a notice via Alexa and the app, including items already in your shopping cart.
Tips for finding the best Prime Day deals
Here are some tips to navigate the Prime Day shopping experience. Make a wish list of items prior to Prime Day, and revisit your list to see when things are marked down. Make sure your product notifications setting is on in Amazon shopping and download the app to get alerts for Amazon Lightning Deals, which can sell out fast and disappear after a few hours. Revisit your wish list on the Amazon site (or in the app) to find out about any special deals leading up to the big sale days for Prime members.
Last, try to buy directly from Amazon or verified third-party sellers with Amazon store fronts, which includes Apple. Make sure to get the biggest markdowns and free Prime shipping, which may not be available through lesser-known third-party sites.
