How do Prime Big Deal Days deals and competitors’ sales at other retailers compare to Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals?
Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days and its competitive sales at other major retailers have many similarities to Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Anecdotally, Black Friday tends to have better deals on big ticket items like TVs, home appliances and laptops, while Prime Big Deal Days will tend to focus on more everyday essentials and items under $50.
If you’re looking for a bargain on items you’ll likely need all year round, get them during Prime Big Deal Days. If you’re looking for that ‘once a year’ bargain, Black Friday is probably your best bet. If you’re looking to escape the Christmas rush, there are plenty of items on sale that make great gifts for loved ones.
