To increase the already considerable buzz around Amazon Prime Day, the Savings.com deal site is giving away $1,000 worth of Amazon scrip.
The bad news: Prime Day is Wednesday, July 15, and gift-card winners won’t be drawn until Tuesday, July 21.
The good news: Amazon promises it will offer more deals this Wednesday than it will on Black Friday. (More on that below.)
Starting at 12:01 a.m. EDT Tuesday, July 14 you have the chance to win a $50 gift card. Twenty will be given away and I’d love it if one (or more!) of my readers were in the winners’ circle.
Here’s how to enter:
Follow the link above to the Amazon page on Savings.com.
Leave your name and e-mail address in the form at the top of the page (one entry per person). The deadline to enter is 11:59 p.m. EDT Thursday, July 16.
Cross your fingers, even if it cuts off the circulation something awful.
The merchandising behemoth promises thousands of its “Lightning Deals” on Wednesday, plus seven special “Deals of the Day.” Other items will be discounted, perhaps noticeably.
Or perhaps not. Before you hit “purchase,” use the free PriceJump tool: Just paste in the Amazon URL and PriceJump compares its cost with price tags at 5,000 other online merchants.
Good luck! And if you win one, please come here and crow about it.
