Could it be…Christmas in July? Amazon Prime Day has rolled around, offering significant price cuts that have already started. This massive Amazon sale for Prime members is sometimes called ‘Black Friday in July’. In 2017 it took place in 13 countries, including the US, Canada, UK, China, and Japan. We are updating our favorite prime day deals for families at least once a day.
