How long is Prime Day October 2025?
Prime Big Deal Days (aka October Prime Day) runs through 11:59 p.m. PT on Oct. 8 (2:59 a.m. ET on Oct. 9).
How long do Prime Day deals last?
Official Prime Day deals end when the sale is over; however, we expect some deals to linger in the days following Oct. 8. We don't recommend chancing it, though. If you see a deal you like, be sure to make your purchase before 11:59 p.m. PT.
When did the first Prime Day start?
The history of Prime Day goes back to July 2015. That year marked Amazon's 20th birthday. In celebration of the retailer's anniversary, Prime Day was born to honor Prime members, per Amazon.
When the global shopping event first launched, it was held over 24-hours. Traditionally, Prime Day has evolved to a two-day sale, but July 2025 marked the first time Amazon hosted the event over four days.
I swear there was a prime day in October but since it seems to be going on now, I’m not sure if I should purchase stuff now or later. Is there a second prime day in October? Expecting a baby and would rather wait for baby to arrive before buying things.
Many people have stopped shopping on Amazon since the start of the year and probably do not plan on participating in Prime Day, but please considering CLOSING your Amazon account.
Amazon will still count you as a user even if you are not active and/or subscribed to Prime.
If you close your account all together they will see a drop in their total number of users which will significantly hurt them in the eyes of the shareholders.
I closed mine a few weeks ago and have been asking others to do the same.
