Amazon’s annual Prime Day event is almost upon us. Bargain hunters can look forward to discounts in a wide range of departments on July 16-17. These discounts will be available exclusively to Prime members, who can expect savings on beauty, technology, homewares, baby and toddler items, kitchenware and more. If you’re not a Prime member but want to join before the sale, there’s still time.

You can sign up for Amazon Prime here for £8.99 per month. The subscription comes with a 30-day free trial, or you can opt to pay in advance for 12 months instead of monthly – it’ll cost you £95. Prime members enjoy unlimited free shipping on all orders and access to Amazon TV. The site has also launched a special offer for students between the ages of 18 and 22. Students can take advantage of an offer where they will receive a six-month free trial before monthly payments begin. Instead of the usual £8.99 monthly fee, you’ll pay just £4.39 – that’s a saving of £47.49 per year.
