Prime members will have access to early holiday deals across categories like tech, home and beauty, including deep discounts on the hottest gift ideas and holiday essentials.

When is October Prime Day 2024?

Fall Amazon Prime Day 2024 — officially known as Prime Big Deal Days — will return to Canada on October 8 at 12 a.m. PST and run until October 9 at 11:59 p.m. PST. Leading up to the two-day sale, Canadians can shop Amazon's early Prime Day deals — these are some of the best ones.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Prime Day is Amazon’s biggest and best global shopping event, with deals offered exclusively for Amazon Prime members. The event lasts two days and features both flash sales and limited-time savings. In previous years, Amazon has included deals on Apple devices, laptops, TVs, name-brand vacuums and more in its Prime Day sale.

Do I need a Prime membership to shop on October Prime Day?

Yes. Prime Day is a shopping event with thousands of deals exclusively for Prime members. However, that's not to say non-Prime members can't also score a deal. Amazon's Deals Store usually has sales available for both Prime and non-Prime members; however, discounts on name brands and high-end tech are usually reserved for Prime members.

How much does a Prime membership cost?

New Prime members can test-drive Prime with a one-week trial for just $0.99 before committing to a membership. Once your trial ends, memberships cost $99/year or $9.99/month for Canadian subscribers. Student discounts are also available.

Is a Prime membership worth it? What does it include?

In addition to exclusive summer and fall Amazon Prime Day 2024 deals, Prime members enjoy several year-round perks, including the following:

Free two-day and same-day shipping
Exclusive access to Prime Video original TV shows and movies, including The Boys, Little Fires Everywhere, Prime Monday Night Hockey and more
Stream or download hit movies and TV shows
Free eBook and music downloads through Prime Music and Prime Reading
