One thing shoppers must do to get the best deals on Prime Day

Amazon's sale extravaganza kicks off next week, but the deals won't be available to everybody
Amazon Prime Day kicks off next week, but shoppers will need to do one thing before the global shopping event gets underway on 8 July. The sale extravaganza will see thousands of products discounted until the end of the event on July 11, however these deals are exclusively for Amazon Prime Members.
This includes Amazon Prime monthly, annual and free trial members, Prime for Students, and Amazon Family. Shoppers yet to become a Prime member can sign up to a free 30-day Prime Trial here to ensure they can take part in the four-day sale.
Customers who are not a Prime member can still buy Amazon products throughout next week, however they will have to pay the usual retail prices. Prime Video members must upgrade to a full Prime membership before being able to take advantage of the deals.
Not only do Prime members get exclusive deals during Prime week, they can also snap up great discounts all-year round. Members can also enjoy free next day delivery on a variety of products, plus they have access to Prime Video and Music.
Shoppers with a Prime membership can also set up app notifications to ensure they don't miss out on deals. Although this year's summer Prime Day sale is yet to get underway, there are already some fabulous offers up for grabs.
Amazon is not the only retailer currently offering deals via a sale. Debenhams has a blue cross sale with up to 75% off across garden, home and fashion.
Alternatively, Dunelm has a huge clearance section with offers running across bedding, curtains and various other homeware items. There are even some garden furniture pieces included in the sale.
Households that suffered during the recent UK heatwaves may need a trusty fan. The online giant's 24% discount on the Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo Portable Fan has come at the perfect time.
Originally priced at £129.99, the misting fan is now available for £99. It's suitable for indoor and outdoor use, available in several colours, and offers an airflow range of 20 metres.
One Amazon shopper declared the Shark fan 'the best', adding: "Lightweight, powerful, the misting function works better than expected. Sleep easily with it on speed setting three - quiet running. Like that it's handheld and runs on a battery. Well worth the money."
However, they did go on to note a slight issue, as they explained: "Only disappointment was the fact I paid £129.99 and then the next day Amazon reduced the price to £99.99. I was tempted to send this one back and reorder it to save £30."
Another top Amazon deal is a £100 discount on the Samsung Galaxy S10 FE Android Tablet, perfect for shoppers needing to replace their current device. Reduced from £499 to £399, this gadget offers a 10.9-inch display, 128GB Storage, 8GB Memory, and comes with an S Pen.
Unfortunately one buyer wasn't completely satisfied with the tablet, as they explained: "I really don't like a lot of the software already installed on it." However, someone else is thrilled with the device, as they wrote: "It's fast and the screen is very clear. I'm a huge fan of Samsung products and I am thrilled with this tablet."
The Tefal Easy Fry Dual Zone Digital Air Fryer is another product that Amazon is currently offering a big discount on. For a limited time, this 8.3L air fryer can be purchased for £99.99, a significant drop from the usual £179.99 price tag.
The cooking device has several programmes, including roast, bake and dehydrate. Both the large and smaller baskets can be used at the same time or individually.
Sadly one customer was left unimpressed with the air fryer's 'very loud beeping' and found it's 'not user friendly'. In contrast, a delighted shopper rated it five stars and said: "Incredible value for money compared to alternatives.
"Very even cooking, high heat, great crispiness and extremely convenient. The two different drawer sizes are great and add up to a considerable amount. The sync and flip reminder features are great too."
Check out all of today's Amazon deals here. For those who are not a Prime member, sign up to a free 30-day Amazon Prime Trial here and enjoy bagging fabulous discounts between July 8 and 11.

For those looking for a unique watch to wear to formal occasions, Debenhams has thousands of watches currently on sale that are sure to catch a shopper's eye. While stylish and practical in their design, many of these timepieces have also had hundreds of pounds shaved off their price tags.

Apple AirTag hits record low price in Amazon Prime Day sale so you never lose your bags again

Apple's AirTag, which can be attached to luggage, is currently on sale at Amazon for its lowest ever price Bluetooth trackers, the tiny tech devices that allow you to keep tabs on your belongings' every move, are gaining popularity. These useful gadgets can be attached to anything from suitcases and handbags to wallets and passports. One such device, Apple's AirTag, has seen a significant price reduction thanks to an early Amazon Prime Day discount. Having used it on their travels to France, New York, Italy, and Botswana, the Mirror's commerce editor Harriet Morphy-Morris highly recommends it to friends and family. The AirTag uses Apple's Find My Network, allowing users to track its movements continuously. Usually priced at £35 per tag, it is currently available for just £26.60 on Amazon, making it cheaper than buying directly from Apple. Setting up this trackable gadget is simple for iOS users. Once the AirTag is activated, simply bring it close to your iPhone or iPad, and a 'connect' notification will appear. You can then assign a name to your AirTag and register it with your Apple ID. Harriet did this back in 2022, and since using an AirTag for travel, she has never misplaced their luggage. The AirTag emits a unique network signal that can be detected by other nearby AirTag users. It sends its location to these users, who can then anonymously share the location with you. Apple enthusiasts may already be acquainted with the 'Find My' app, and the AirTag functions similarly to tracking a misplaced phone during the 'Find My iPhone' era. With the Find My app, Harriet said they can instantly see the location of their bags and when they were last there - particularly useful when boarding a plane, as it allows her to confirm whether their luggage has been loaded. AirTags do present a limitation for many travellers and mobile users, as they are exclusive to iOS, leaving Android users out in the cold. This is where competing devices such as the Tile tag and select models from Chipolo prove beneficial, as we outline below. There are alternatives from Chipolo, Tile and Samsung. The Tile by Life360 is available for purchase on Amazon at £34.99, a slight increase compared to the currently discounted AirTag. Like the AirTag, it also tracks items it's attached to via an app, but instead of immediately displaying the tracker's location upon opening (as with the AirTag), you have to select 'location history'. Harriet has previously compared the Tile tracker with the AirTag while travelling, and it does provide a slightly more accurate location on the map, including nearby shops and attractions that iOS doesn't display. Another alternative is Chipolo. The Chipolo Card Spot, which is compatible only with iPhones, is currently reduced to £19 and offers a slimmer option that can easily fit into purses and wallets. Tech deal of the week It's that time of year where we are looking for ways to keep cool amidst the balmy, summer days. One item shoppers are raving over is this DDKJ Neck Fan that can be used to keep cool when commuting, at work or in the home. Even better, it costs just £26.98 on Amazon. With certain parts of the UK set to reach sweltering 35C, it's handy that this neck fan comes with a rose gold cooling plate around the neck curve that is said to "feel like an ice cube", dropping temperatures to just 15C in as little as one second. Boasting an ergonomic, wearable design, it features two bladeless fans that are safe to wear, with five different speed settings that provide a cooling effect on the head, neck and sides. It's also quite smart thanks to a LED digital display that makes the operation easy and convenient, while the built-in 5500mAh large capacity rechargeable battery features a fast charging chip that ensures a full charge within just 2.5-3hrs. Numerous shoppers who have bagged the neck fan say it is a "godsend" and a "lifesaver" for the heatwave, with one writing: "This is easy to wear when sitting or walking generally. Works fast and never needed it on anything but the lowest setting! At my time of life it is a lifesaver, especially through the heatwave we experienced." Keep cool amidst the rising temperatures with the DDKJ Neck Fan with Cooling Plate on Amazon for £26.98 During a recent holiday, Harriet decided to test out the CARD Spot by Chipolo. Its slim design, similar to a bank card, makes it perfect for slipping into a wallet, passport, or ID, much like the Tile by Life360 or Eufy SmartTrack Card. However, Harriet opted to tuck it into her suitcase pocket for tracking during her flight. It's important to note that it relies solely on Apple's Find My network and doesn't have its own app. Currently on sale for £21, the CARD Spot offers features that set it apart from rivals such as AirTag and Tile. It's worth mentioning that this gadget may not be suitable for Android users due to compatibility issues. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Amazon may soon offer a reason to ditch your Fire TV Stick and try something new

Amazon is about to launch its next big Prime Day sale and that means some of its popular Fire TV Sticks could get huge price cuts. If your current Fire TV Stick is looking a little past its best, now could be a good time to ditch it and try something new. It's been confirmed that Amazon is about to launch another of its massive Prime Day sale events, and we expect some hefty price cuts to be announced across a swathe of devices. If history repeats itself, Amazon's own brand gadgets could see the biggest reductions. That includes the very latest Fire TV Sticks, which have often been slashed during previous Prime Day events. For example, the most premium Fire TV Stick 4K Max has seen its cost cut to under £45 during Prime Day. If that happens this time around, it could be a good time to invest with this device offering features such as better streaming, more power under its shell and the exclusive Ambient Experience which turns your TV into a work of art. There's also the latest Fire TV Stick 4K, which includes pin-sharp streaming, fast Wi-Fi 6 speeds and quick access to all the most popular apps such as Netflix and Disney+. The 4K currently costs £59.99, but that could drop to around £35 next week. Along with Fire TV Sticks, we are also likely to see Kindles, Fire Tablets and Echo speakers dropped in price. To add to the Prime Day excitement, it's also been confirmed that products from Bose, Sonos and LEGO will be included in the sale. Amazon also says there will be new offers this year called, 'Today's Big Deals'. These will be themed daily deal drops featuring some of the most exciting deals of the event, exclusive to Prime members. Members can enjoy deep discounts across top brands like Samsung, Kiehl's, and Levi's. These special offers launch daily at midnight PDT and remain available for a limited time, while supplies last. Just remember that you will need a Prime account which usually costs £8.99. However, Amazon does offer one month free, so if you sign up now, you won't have to pay for Prime Day deals.
