Amazon Prime Day

It would honestly just be mean of me to not share Amazon Prime Day with you. Today is the day when Amazon puts a bajillion (literally, a bajillion) things on sale. Everything from their Kindles to household appliances to that pair of shoes you were staring at last week is marked down! (It’s like the Nordstrom sale (which starts in two days), but for everything.)

There is a small caveat to this sale though. It’s only open to Amazon Prime Members. BUT you shouldn’t let that deter you! You can actually join Amazon Prime for a FREE 30 day trial (it’ll start today), make your purchases, and then cancel it if you wish (though honestly, I’ve had it for over 6 years and it’s one of the best annual purchases that I make).

So if you haven’t joined yet, go join first, and if you’re already an Amazon Prime Member, shop on!

There are SO many deals today, but here’s what I’m planning on looking at or have and recommend:

I cut my cords with cable when I first moved into my apartment and quickly replaced it with an Amazon Fire Stick. I’m able to use it to access my Hulu, Netflix, and Slingbox accounts, plus any apps that I download off of Amazon’s site (I watched Downton Abbey and Lifetime through the PBS and Lifetime free apps). Plus, if you’re an Amazon Prime user, you get access to their really good collection of movies and TV.

I own the regular Kindle, but I’ve been eyeing the paperwhite for a while. While I’m sure you know the upsides of a regular Kindle (you don’t have to haul around 092384093284 books!), the upside to the Paperwhite is that you can read in the dark, but it has no back light. So that blue light on electronics that people tell you to stay away from when you’re going to go to sleep? Not a problem!
