Prime Big Deal Days 2024 Marks Our Biggest
Early Holiday Kickoff Event Ever
More Holiday Deals to Come Through the End of
the Year
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) announced that Prime Big Deal Days was its
biggest October shopping event ever. More Prime members shopped
compared to last year and took advantage of early holiday deals,
marking the kickoff to the holiday season with higher sales and
more items sold during the two-day event than any previous October
shopping event. Globally, Prime members saved more than $1 billion
across millions of deals, including on seasonal merchandise and
gifts.
Across Amazon’s wide selection, Prime members saved on
everything from electronics, home, toys, beauty, and apparel,
including discounts on products from Dyson, Mattel, Levi’s, and
Apple. Independent sellers also saw record sales during the event
compared to Prime Big Deal Days 2023, with discounts on popular
items like Le Volume 2-in-1 Titanium Blow Dryer Brush from L'ANGE
HAIR, Hydration Multiplier Electrolyte Drink Mix from Liquid I.V.,
and Superhero Mascara from IT Cosmetics.
Prime members also took advantage of innovative shopping
features during Prime Big Deal Days to help them find gifts and
items suited to their needs and interests. Rufus, a generative
AI-powered conversational shopping assistant, helped millions of
customers in the U.S. answer questions on a variety of shopping
needs and products in the Amazon store. Rufus can now help make
tailored deal recommendations, making it easier to discover great
gift ideas at a discount. Customers also used Inspire, the in-app
mobile experience to help them discover ideas and products in a
personalized feed, and Amazon Lens, the visual shopping tool that
identifies objects and finds similar items on Amazon, making it
easier for customers to quickly navigate Amazon’s wide selection.
To help reduce the time spent researching new product categories,
AI Shopping Guides can take the guess work out of gift shopping,
offering tailored content to help customers learn about different
product types, understand key features and terminology, and
identify top brands and customer favorites.
"Our 2024 Prime Big Deal Days event marked a strong start to the
holiday shopping season, with record-breaking sales and
participation from Prime members worldwide,” said Doug Herrington,
CEO of Worldwide Amazon Stores. “This is just the start of great
deals from Amazon over the holiday shopping season, paired with
fast, free delivery for Prime members to help them check items off
their gift lists. We’re excited to deliver for customers this
holiday, and we’re grateful to our teams around the world working
hard to offer compelling selection, value, and convenience
throughout the season."
While Prime Big Deal Days has concluded, the holiday savings are
just getting started. Throughout the holiday season, customers can
discover trending products, top brands, and deals within the
Holiday Shop, including Top 100+ Gifts, hosting must-haves, and the
Toys We Love list, or shop by theme and price point with most-loved
gifts under $10, and stocking stuffers under $10.
Customers can also look forward to exciting events,
including:
- The return of the 4th annual Holiday Beauty Haul from October
21-November 3, featuring thousands of curated deals and gift sets
on beauty products from brands like Clinique, COSRX, Revlon, Sol de
Janeiro, Viktor&Rolf, and Youth to the People.
