It's day two of Amazon Prime Day. My head feels like it's been in a blender after keeping an eye on the shopping site meticulously since Tuesday morning, I'm struggling to recall my own name and I'm seeing red and blue 'deal' and 'lightning' banners wherever I look.
But it's not a bad job having to scour a shopping site high and low for the best deals in its mass 48-hour sale. In fact, it's really quite fun, and I've sought out some great bargains on things I wouldn't usually go for that I may well invest in now: this Lubluelu Robot Vacuum Cleaner with Mop 3000Pa, 2 in 1 Robot Vacuum, for example. Thanks Amazon, I've been well and truly Primed.
Beginning at midnight on Tuesday, July 11, Prime Day sees Amazon slashing the prices of some of its products from brands across the world, from beauty experts like Maybelline and Olay (check out my beauty blog to see even more products on sale) to Shark vacuum cleaners (we have one for vacuums, too) and Ninja Air Fryers.
The sale will only last until 11:59pm this evening (Wednesday, July 12) and last year, the event sold more than 300 million items. And this year will be no different, no doubt.
