Amazon Big Spring Sale FAQ
What is Amazon Prime?
In order to be eligible for Amazon Big Spring Sale discounts, you need Amazon Prime. This is effectively a membership fee that gives you 'free' unlimited one-day delivery (in select areas) on millions of items bought from Amazon, plus Prime Video and Amazon Music streaming services (but not Amazon Music Unlimited – that costs extra), free ebooks, and the ability to share some of these benefits with others in your household.
Amazon Prime costs $14.99 a month or $139 if you pay yearly. Students pay $7.49 a month or $69 a year. Changed your mind? You can cancel your Prime membership on the Manage Prime Membership page. And if you haven't placed a Prime-eligible order or used any of your Prime benefits, you'll be refunded in full.
There's an Amazon Prime free trial, too. Sign up, select 'Start my free trial', and you'll have access to Prime for 30 days with nothing to pay. That means you can sign up, take advantage of the deals, and then cancel your trial before the 30-day period ends and not be charged your second month's fee for Prime. Not that we would condone such behaviour, of course.
In order to be eligible for the trial, you can't have subscribed to Prime in the last 12 months.
What is Amazon's Big Spring Sale?
It's basically a spring version of Amazon Prime Day, which takes place in the summer.
Prime Day began in 2015 as a celebration of Amazon's 20th anniversary. While other online retailers get involved in the Black Friday bargain bun fight, Prime Day is generally all about Amazon, though you might see other retailers lowering prices at the same time in order to stay competitive.
Prime Day is a big sale that encompasses most areas of the Amazon site – as well as audio-visual gear, you'll find discounts on toasters, books, clothes, and pretty much anything that Amazon sells. And that's a lot!
Amazon's Big Spring Sale takes place over six days (20-25th March), and should see a similar raft of deals on similar products.
You'll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of the offers. Not yet a member? Amazon Prime's free trial gives you the option to sign up, bag a few bargains during the Big Spring Sale, and cancel your membership without paying a penny. You scallywag, you.
When does Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2024 start?
Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2024 will kick off at 00:01 GMT on Wednesday 20th March, and last for six days.
When does Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2024 end?
The sales are officially live until Monday 25th March at 23:59. Though some deals stick around longer than that.
Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2024 secret hacks and tips
1. Sign up for the free Prime trial
If you're new to Amazon Prime, make sure you take advantage of the 30-day free Prime trial. And remember to cancel if you don't want a monthly bill when the trial ends.
2. Google a product before buying
Not every deal is going to be a winner, so make sure you compare prices online before you buy, and, of course, check our reviews to make sure the product is worth buying at all!
3. Big brands can equal big savings
Amazon often slashes the cost of a few big brand items – think PlayStation and Xbox accessories, Samsung TVs and tablets, etc – to get the attention of shoppers. Keep an eye out for these 'marquee' deals.
4. Check the Amazon Warehouse
Returned goods end up on sale at the Amazon Warehouse at a decent discount, so there's a chance you could spot an open-box bargain that beats the box-fresh sales price.
5. Stay tuned to What Hi-Fi.com
Amazon unleashes thousands of deals around the Big Spring Sale, which can make it tricky to find genuine bargains on five-star tech and AV. That's why we'll be publishing an up-to-the minute list of the very best deals.
Is Amazon's Big Spring Sale only once a year?
It is. It's one of Amazon's many sales days throughout the year – Prime Day in the summer and then Black Friday at the end of November are examples of other Amazon sales events.
What discounts are offered on Amazon's Big Spring Sale?
We'll have to see. But past Prime Days are usually a good indicator.
Amazon's own devices are always among the most heavily discounted – some have already had up to 60 per cent off – but there are deals on headphones, TVs, Bluetooth speakers, cables, hi-fi, smartphones and more.
Basically, you can expect price drops on some of the best headphones and best wireless speakers (and every tech category in between) on the market, from big brands such as Sony, Samsung, Bose, JBL and Bang & Olufsen to smaller consumer electronics names.
Even the odd Apple and Sonos product makes it in there.
Not all that glitters is gold. We'll be picking through the deals and giving you the best advice on which are worth your time, and which to avoid.
What benefits do Prime members get on Amazon's Big Spring Sale?
Without Prime, you can't take advantage of the discounts. There are all sorts of other benefits to Prime year round, like early access to 'Lightning deals', Prime Video and Amazon Music streaming, and try before you buy on certain items. Here's a list of more Prime benefits.
Is Amazon's Big Spring Sale for everyone?
It is, as long as you have signed up for Amazon Prime. No Prime, no deals. You can pay for Prime monthly ($15) or yearly ($139).
