Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN 0.29%’s Prime Day event is set to begin within a matter of hours. While Amazon is promoting huge savings on a number of popular items, the website BestBlackFriday.com crunched the numbers to see just how good Amazon’s 2017 Prime Day deals are up to this point.
The site is comparing Prime Day 2017 prices to Prime Day 2016 and Black Friday 2016 to see whether or not shoppers are getting even better deals this Prime Day.
“We are hoping to have 50 or so comparisons, and we are focusing on the most popular items,” BestBlackFriday.com owner and editor Eric Jones said.
Here’s a look at how some of the Prime Day prices stack up to last year’s big events:
- Amazon Echo for $89.99 ($90 savings): $50 better than Black Friday 2016 and $40 better than Prime Day 2016

Want to learn more about how to profit off the stock market? Or maybe you just want to be able to look sophisticated in front of your coworkers when they ask you what you are reading on your Kindle, and you’d prefer to tell them “Oh, I’m just reading a book about stock market analysis,” rather than the usual “Oh, I’m just looking at pics of my ex-girlfriend on Facebook.” For these reasons and more, check out my book, Beating Wall Street with Common Sense. I don’t have a degree in finance; I have a degree in neuroscience. You don’t have to predict what stocks will do if you can predict what traders will do and be one step ahead of them. I made a 400% return in the stock market over five years using only basic principles of psychology and common sense. Beating Wall Street with Common Sense is now available on Amazon, and tradingcommonsense.com is always available on your local internet!
