The best Amazon Black Friday deals are usually on electronics like TVs and laptops, however the best ones sell out extremely quickly. It's almost unfair how insanely quickly the best deals sell out, but then again, there's a reason Black Friday has that reputation. Make sure you are online before midnight, then be vigilant about pressing "refresh" on their Black Friday deals and sales page until the deal you want is available. Luckily, you'll know what most of the deals are before they go live, but some are hidden until the last moment, which can trick some shoppers with trigger fingers to accidentally buy items they don't want (yes, the deals really sell out that quickly).


In addition to being just an online retailer, Amazon also develops and markets its own brand of products - like the Amazon Kindle readers, Alexa - and is also a well-known provider of cloud computing solutions. Amazon's headquarters are based in Seattle, Washington with separate retail websites for the UK, Ireland, Spain, Australia, India, Mexico, Japan, Brazil, Germany, China, Canada, France, the Netherlands and Italy - with more international sites expected to launch in the future.
Amazon Student - It costs a lot to be a student these days, but the Amazon Student program makes it easy to save on essential student gear - and more. Like Amazon Mom, registration to Amazon Student is free and provides access to exclusive offers, coupons and discounts for student essentials. Amazon Student members also receive access to special giveaways, sweepstakes and contests, plus they receive a $10 credit for referring friends to the program, via social media and email...a new customer is Amazon's best friend! Amazon Student members also receive a free six month trial of Amazon Prime and most its perks (minus access to the Amazon media library). What makes the Amazon Prime Student deal even better - is that, after the six month trial period has ended, students can extend their Amazon Prime membership at a 50% discount To qualify for an Amazon Student membership, a valid .edu email address and/or proof of current school/college enrollment status is required. (A note for parents and relatives: Amazon gift cards make great graduation gifts.)
Amazon rarely offers site-wide coupon codes, but they do offer coupons for specific products. During Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, Amazon will automatically apply discounts when you add products to your cart. While there might not be lots of Amazon promo codes, they do offer peace of mind when shopping. For example, if you buy an item from Amazon, then spot an identical product on an Amazon competitor's site at a lower price, they'll refund you the price difference. As long as you see the identical cheaper product within 14 days, you should be covered. Review the Amazon price matching policy to learn more.
