Amazon Deals

Amazon has ridiculous holiday deals now through Christmas. There are too many to count, but I will offer my strategy to you.

I go to Amazon.com and click on a category that I'm looking for. Typically Toys because they are having some AWESOME deals (and they only get better as Christmas arrives). This process works for all of their categories.

Once you've selected your category click "bestsellers" on the lateral bar. You can scroll through these which are updated hourly on which items in this category are selling well. Typically the good selling items are ones that are being discounted.

I take it one step further. After you've clicked on "bestsellers" there will be a link list to the left called "movers and shakers." This list provides items that are being shot up in the rankings of items sold. So if an item hasn't been selling well and they throw a great discount on there then viola there it is!

Last year I set a personal limit of $4/ toy. I got a ton! And used my Amazon Prime membership to purchase and free 2-day ship as the deals came out.

These deals do not last. Amazon is famous for altering their prices so it may be one price while you're at work and another by the time you get home.

If you don't have Amazon Prime or don't feel like using their 30 day trial, they do offer free super saver shipping for purchases over $25. If you are looking to get your total over $25 check out this site that has links to items that you can buy as "filler" to get your total up to $25.
