AMAZON PRIME DAY is here and it’s another chance to pick up some pretty amazing bargains. We’ve done it, you’ve done it, in fact it seems everyone we know has done it at one time or another. Getting the bargains is fairly easy, getting the REAL bargains needs a little more thought.

Prime Day is an annual sale across Amazon that features a selection of spotlight deals running for either 24 hours or 48 hours in this case. There are also shorter flash sales that may only last for a few hours.

Discounts are available across products in a variety of departments, including home, fashion, beauty and tech.

In fact, this years Prime Day will feature more than two million deals worldwide and will take place in 20 countries, including the UK, US, Australia and China.

In short, it’s a chance to stock up on all the essentials – and non-essentials – you’ve been thinking about this last year.

Here’s a few bargains we’ve snapped up already.
