Amazon Prime Day 2019, July 15 and July 16, is right around the corner and for many, it's basically like Black Friday, but the summer version. It's now a two-day event for Amazon in which most items on its platform will be heavily marked down. We're talking the possibility of 50% off or more. Given this, it's no surprise the site crashed last year because of the mad rush of people clamoring to get in on the sweet deals. Because unlike Black Friday, people use Amazon all the time in their daily lives. Parents know there are tons of items for them as adults, but also things for their kids. So why not purchase those items while they're on sale? Amazon's preview included deals for kids, but Amazon regularly has sales on kid or baby-related items.
And judging by some of the Prime-only customer preview markdowns that have hit some products this week, there's likely more to come. It may be safe to say that baby products, from outfits to bottles to play mats, may have good discounts. Graco has already announced it's going to be part of the day, so it's likely other brands will be part of it, too. But here's the catch: No one knows exactly what will be for sale on Prime Day and how big the discounts will be. There are some mark downs now (Hello KitchenAid stand mixers!) but actual Prime Days deals are not revealed. To give mom a clue as to what she could try to look out for (we're assuming items may sell out quickly) we checked out the items that were part of Prime Day last year. As well as items other retailers are already marking down. There's nothing wrong with a educated guess to be prepared!
Check out the items we predict may have major sales and add it to the list. This day, or days rather, only comes once a year!
Adult Clothes
This dress was among the pre-Prime Day deals that Amazon released early. As clothes make up a big part of the site's offerings, it's safe to say there's likely more where this comes from.
High-Low Dress ($55, Amazon)
Kids' Clothing
Unicorns are all the rage and Amazon knows it. This particular hoodie was included in the early markdown group as well, which may hint at more kids' hoodie sales.
Unicorn Hoodie ($15, Amazon)
Baby Activity Mats
Also included in the Prime-only preview sale, this activity mat made the cut. Keep an eye out for discounts on other play centers or similar mats.
Baby Activity Mats ($80, Amazon)
Graco 4Ever 4-in-1 Convertible Car Seat
Infant car seats can get pricey, which means a markdown would be an amazing thing to have. Luckily, Amazon has already done so on this Graco item, bringing the price down by $30.
Graco 4Ever 4-in-1 Convertible Car Seat ($270, Amazon)
Baby Wear
Newborn clothing is part of the Prime Launch list which leads up to believe it could be a great Prime Day purchase to anticipate. Expectant mamas can stock up, or soon-to-be aunties can get shower gifts early.
Newborn Hats ($30, Amazon)
23andMe DNA Test
The DNA testing kit was on sale last Amazon Prime Day and had $100 off the regular price. It's a great way to see ancestors' origins. It also makes a cool gift.
23andMe DNA Test ($199, Amazon)
Echo Dot (2nd Generation)
The Echo Dot is high on the list of featured items as Amazon included it last year. Then, it was $20 off. It's unavailable now, but good to check to see if it, or the third generation version, has been restocked on the big day.
Echo Dot (2nd Generation) ($29, Amazon)
Mustela Gentle Cleansing Gel, Baby Hair & Body Wash
Mustela is considered by Amazon to be a "luxury beauty" item and was in last year's deal for a total of $0! Keep a close eye, this year it might make a reappearance.
Mustela Gentle Cleansing Gel, Baby Hair and Body Wash ($17, Amazon)
Crock-Pot 6-Quart 8-in-1 Multi-Use Express Crock
Everyone could use a Crock-Pot in their life and Amazon has already marked it down. There may be more deals on kitchen appliances as the day gets closer.
Crock-Pot 6-Quart 8-in-1 Multi-Use Express Crock ($68, Amazon)
Fire TV Stick 4K With Alexa Voice Remote
A previous version of the Fire TV Stick was available last year with a $20 discount. There's a newer version available now, but keep the page handy should Prime Day reduce its price.
Fire TV Stick 4K with Alexa Voice Remote ($50, Amazon)
Toshiba 43LF421U19 43-inch 1080p Full HD Smart LED TV
It can't be a crazy sale without a discount on TVs, can it? Keep an eye on these on Prime Day. Something needs to go with the Fire Stick!
Toshiba 43LF421U19 43-inch 1080p Full HD Smart LED TV ($300, Amazon)
Literally Any KitchenAid
KitchenAid stand mixers are one of those items that people never buy unless its a gift or during a sale. If this is the case, Prime Day will be a great time to pull the trigger.
KitchenAid (from $379, Amazon)
Disney Comforters
Disney's Frozen comforter was on the pre-Prime line-up so don't forget to check in on it on July 15. Even if it's not this one, there may be others worth purchasing at a major discount.
Disney Comforter ($30, Amazon)
Toys
Toys are a big category on Amazon and a "prime" section to scan for deals on Prime day. This Paw Patrol set is a new product just for Prime members.
Paw Patrol Toy ($25, Amazon)
Cookware
Looking to make kitchen equipment upgrades on the cheap but still get quality products? Now is the Prime time. Some sets are already up to 39% off.
Lodge L4HS3KPLT Cast Iron 4-Piece Cookware Set ($70, Amazon)
Fisher-Price Products
Fisher-Price products were among baby products on sale during last year's Prime Day and it's likely they will be again. This "Amazon Choice" rocker was a featured item on the site's page as of July 1.
Fisher-Price Infant-to-Toddler Rocker ($40, Amazon)
Arlo Baby Monitor
Baby monitors are must-have items that feel even better with a discount. Amazon has already marked this one down for a total of $72 in savings.
Arlo Baby Monitor ($127, Amazon)
Apple Watches
Last but not least, the Apple Watch is an item that is also served best as a markdown. It was featured as a sale item last Prime Day so keep a close watch (hehe). Since the 4's release, look out for big discounts on earlier versions. Word has it that the 38 mm Apple Watch 3 will be $199.
Apple Watch ($350, Amazon)
