As we close in on Prime Day (Black Friday in July, exclusively for Prime members), I just wanted to point out some awesome ways that you can become a Prime member. There are several deals running that will let you save on a membership for the next year, or even just for the next month so that you can take care of these deals. If you are looking to save some BIG bucks on high end and smaller items, then you will want to get prepared for the onslaught of deals coming your way over the next week, and specifically over July 15-16. Here are a couple of membership offers that are available:

Membership Savings:

• Anyone can get a 30 day free trial here; many people have reported being able to do this multiple times

• If you are just looking to participate in the deals and don’t want an annual membership, grab a monthly membership for just $12.99

• EBT/Medicaid families can save on Prime at just $5.99 per month; details here

• Students or teachers with a valid .edu address can get 6 months for free here

• TopCashback is offering $15 cash back on the purchase of an annual membership at full price

• Ibotta is offering a $20 Amazon gift card with the purchase of a full price annual membership

There are also several offers available right now due to Prime Day that you will want to take advantage of to get the best savings. Here are the main ones I see:

• Purchase as many FREE things as you can via Rebate Key and choose $1 Delayed Shipping Credit. These are set to arrive on July 17, so you **should** get your credits by July 16 to use on any digital items. (up to $15, as this is a max of 5 items per day)
  .
• YMMV – Get $15 promotional credit when you backup your photos on Prime. The credit is valid through 8/31, and good off of purchases $25+. Probably won’t work if you have already used Prime Photos, but worth checking to see if you are eligible.
  
• Spend $10 at Whole Foods and get back $10 Amazon promotional credit to use on Prime Day
  .
• YMMV – Select users will be able to get back a $10 promotional credit with a purchase of $100+ by using promo code GET10PD at checkout. This is only valid 7/15-7/16, and will expire in 30 days. This is for purchases made through the Amazon Assistant browser extension, and not available for all users.
  
• Spend $50 at an Amazon Store (yes, PHYSICAL store), and you will get $10 Amazon gift card back.
  
• Add $20 to your Amazon balance at participating retail stores (like CVS), and get a free $5 promotional credit.
• Get $25 for new app users – $10 for downloading and signing in, $5 for first camera and Alexa use, $10 for first purchase. Available through 7/31
  
• Get free $10 promotional credit the first time you reload $100+ to your gift card balance.

(BONUS non-promo credit deal is the super cheap free shipping + $15 off + $10 off Prime Pantry Promotion running for Prime Day too!)

These are some pretty amazing savings that are available to help you score some great deals for this Prime Day! As always, make sure to follow along in the Kouponing With Katie Facebook group for exclusive deals that we won’t be posting anywhere else!!
