Amazon Prime Day is back! It is like Christmas in July.
Why Amazon Prime?
Seriously, I treat Amazon Prime Day like Christmas. Why? Because I’m a planner, and I love a good deal.
Part of living a simple, minimalist lifestyle is buying less stuff, so why on earth would I encourage you to go to Amazon today to buy more stuff?
Well, we all need stuff.
The thing with simple living is we need less stuff.
When I buy something, I like to buy higher quality stuff. I want to buy something once and it lasts me a very long time. I don’t want to waste my money on cheap, temporary items that will continue to be thrown into a landfill once they wear out.
Now is the time to get that needed stuff at a steal of a deal. Trust me.
I also like to organize, and organizing can get expensive real fast. If you have ever been in a big box store buying new organizing baskets or shelves, you see the dollar signs add up quick. Get ahead of the game and buy your organizing tools now, while they are on super sale.
If you are a planner, it is also a great time to buy birthday gifts and Christmas gifts that people will actually want, not just another Christmas throw blanket you find out of desperation the last week before the holiday!

What is Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is a HUGE once a year, crazy awesome deal finding day.
I love a good Black Friday and Cyber Monday to find the stuff I need at a good deal, and this puts it to shame.
You will find deals for everything you could possibly imagine (junk included). However, you will also find some amazing deals to get your home in order and make life a little simpler.
To enjoy Amazon Prime Day, you will need an Amazon Prime membership.
Don’t worry, if you don’t like it, you can cancel it before your free one-month trial ends.
For those of you seeking an easier, simpler life, Amazon Prime may be the answer for you. I LOVE it!
This year, Amazon Prime Day is for 2 whole days! That is 48 hours of shopping frenzy. I’m so excited!
In 2019, Prime Day is July 15-16. For two whole days, you can find a great deal on the stuff you will actually use.
(Ignore the lightning deals on things you don’t need. You can do it!)
Pro Tips for Amazon Prime Day:
Watch for Lightning Deals. You can see “Upcoming Deals” so you are ready for items you don’t want to miss.
Use the Waitlist. If something sells out, get on the waitlist. You never know!
Choose slow shipping. This is my favorite about Amazon Prime. I often don’t need an item in 2 days. If this is the case, I’ll select slow shipping. Amazon will often give you a $1 credit towards a Kindle book or money towards a Prime Pantry order.

Hello Alexa. Creepy a little maybe, but kind of nice. Alexa plays all our music and even adds things to our shopping list through the Amazon Echo.

Stop buying more and more books and go digital! It isn’t as scary as it seems. Clear the physical clutter. You can even check out Kindle books for FREE as part of your Amazon Prime Membership.

My new favorite way to “read”. I love getting a fantastic new book on Audible and listening to it while I clean house, walk the dog or commute.

Sometimes mama needs a break. Try out Amazon Fresh to have groceries delivered straight to your door, as often as you like. OMG, yes please.
