Amazon Prime Day is the sale to top all sales. But this year Amazon is upping the ante even more because the sale extravaganza will run for the longest duration to date!
Usually, Amazon Prime Day runs for 48 hours, but this year, Amazon will last for a whopping 96-hours, which is quite something.
As the sale will run for a longer duration, it means there will be even more deals and discounts to shop from leading brands in July.
The Prime Day sale will see products across all departments reduced, such as fashion, beauty, garden, home, and entertainment. We expect the usual culprits will be reduced in this year's sale, including Dyson, CeraVe, Ninja, Shark, and Bose, plus many more recognised labels.
Amazon's Prime Day sale is eligible for all to shop, however, Prime members will be able to shop even more discounts and receive free delivery too.
The question on everyone's lips is 'When is Amazon Prime Day 2025?' This year it will run from 8th to 11th July, which means plenty of time to snap up a bargain or two.
However, the deals will not last forever, and not least because stock is bound to sell out. But because Amazon will run time-limited discounts, such as Today's Big Deals and New Deal Drop.
Today's Big Deals are daily themes curated specifically for Prime members, while New Deal Drop are limited-time only deals that will launch at midnight every day throughout the 96-hour sale.
If you're not a Prime member, it is super easy to sign up. New customers can select a 30-day free trial, which they can cancel at any time. More Trending
If you wish to continue the subscription, it will cost just £8.99 per month. However, those aged 18 to 22 years old will be able to secure a discounted Prime membership with all the same benefits. This will see the price drop to £4.49 a month or £47.49 annually.
We strongly recommend it, considering the deals on offer come Prime Day and throughout the year.
Amazon has remained tight-lipped about what will be included in the Prime Day sale, but we have lived (and worked) through plenty, so we have a good idea what you can expect.
Here are some of our predictions, and what to bookmark for the Prime Day sale.
Looking for voluminous lashes and a longer flutter, this mascara delivers.Infused with bamboo extract for a weightless, nourishing and longer looking lash. The silicone brush tapers into smaller bristles at the top to get into tighter corners of the lash to coat every individual lash. BUY NOW FOR £7.85 (WAS £12.99)

The fan features three easy-to-use speed push buttons and sports a metal finish for that classic 'retro' look. Debenhams customers have given the fan a 3.8 out of 5 stars, specifically mentioning its size - it measures at a substantial 20 inches.

Three speed settings and I purchased it for less than half price." Another highly positive review noted: "This fan is fabulous. I didn't realise how big it was, but saying that, it's powerful but not a "wind turbine". Even better, it was in the sale! I love it. Very much recommended." A contented purchaser remarked: "The fan is very powerful and in the hot weather it is brilliant. The cool air goes all across the room."

Phillips air fryer with 13 cooking functions drops from £100 to £52 in the sale

'The best I have used so far, it's so quiet in operation that you don't know it's on, cooks everything evenly and very fast.' For those who are in a rush and need to make dinner quickly, an air fryer is a must-have appliance to have in your home. With a variety of cooking functions available and less oil required for cooking, these nifty devices will help users create crispy, healthy dishes in no time. For those looking for a new air fryer, or are considering adding another to their collection, Amazon has dropped the price of the Phillips 2000 Series Air Fryer - which one shopper says is the best they have used 'so far'. Normally retailing for £99.99, shoppers can now grab this highly rated air fryer for the budget price of £51.79. It is unknown when this limited time deal will end, so shoppers may need to be quick to nab the appliance before it shoots back up in price. Boasting a 6.2L pan, this Phillips Air Fryer will seamlessly fit into a shopper's kitchen due to its compact size. With RapidAir technology, this device is said to deliver food with 'irresistibly crispy exteriors and tender interiors', all with minimal oil. Said to cook with up to 90 per cent less fat than a regular oven, this air fryer comes with 13 cooking functions to make all cooking dreams and ambitions a reality. Along with air frying, baking, roasting and grilling, shoppers also have the options to defrost, dehydrate, toast and stir fry their food. While shoppers can choose to set the time and temperature manually, the air fryer also comes with nine preset modes to make cooking a breeze. This includes frozen fries, fresh fries, chicken, meat, fish, breakfast, vegetables, cake, keep warm. Another popular air fryer on Amazon that has been given a discount is the Russell Hobbs XXL Family Rapid Digital Air Fryer. Usually retailing for £159.99, shoppers can now snap up this 8L device for £79.99. With a maximum temperature of 220 degrees, this air fryer is said to save up to 47 per cent energy compared to an oven. Alternatively, Argos has put the Tower Xpress Pro 11L Air Fryer down to their 'lowest price ever'. Selling for £70, this air fryer comes with a 11L capacity and is said to be able to cook a 1kg chicken in 40 minutes. With dishwasher safe parts to help with cleaning, this air fryer is easy to move as it weighs 5.8kg. Currently one of Amazon's top choices, the Phillip Air Fryer boasts a 4.6 star rating and was bought by over 2,000 people in the last 30 days. One five-star reviewer said: "I love this air fryer, it is quick almost sound proof, it's a game changer, it works really well. I am very happy with my purchase. It is also very easy to use, and you can make different meals with it. I recommend it. I have not looked at the energy efficiency yet but I will check that out next." With another writing: "The best I have used so far, it's so quiet in operation that you don't know it's on, cooks everything evenly and very fast, it fully cooked a chicken in 60 minutes amazing value for the money and can only highly recommend if I could give it 10 [stars] then I would." However, a few shoppers complained about the lack of instructions. One person said: "Could do with a basic information leaflet for beginners explaining symbols." While another reviewer added on: "A word of warning to anyone thinking of buying this item. You have to go online for how to use. I managed to register to get my 2yrs guarantee. Couldn't see the very small writing on my I-phone. When did instruction books go out of fashion." Despite this, a happy shopper commented: "Nice big basket with light and window. Easy to clean. Quite quiet and very fast. Delighted with product and would recommend. Good value and digital controls are easy so you can control time and temperature. It has a cable tidy at the back which is useful." With a sixth shopper writing: "Bought in a panic when our oven broke and happily used this for five months before getting around to having the oven fixed. It's big enough to fit a small Pizza Express pizza and I love the window and light so I can check the progress of the food without opening it. "I usually research these items before buying them so wasn't expecting much for my quick purchase but am very pleased with this one." To buy the Philips 2000 Series Airfryer, click HERE.

John Lewis tells head office staff to work in office at least three days a week

John Lewis is asking head office staff to spend at least three days a week in the office or out on the road in the latest shift away from working from home. The department store group said members of its commercial teams – which include those working in buying and merchandising – should work no more than two days a week from home from July. Previously they were allowed to work up to three days a week at home. The change at the employee-owned group, which is renowned for its good treatment of workers, including access to holiday homes and a generous pension scheme, comes amid a broader shift among businesses ranging from the retailer Boots to Amazon and JP Morgan, who have told staff they must return five days a week. Last month HSBC told staff in its UK high street banks that it may cut their bonuses if they did not work in the office at least 60% of the time. The business has also discussed a group-wide policy of working in the office three days a week, according to the Financial Times. John Lewis's parent group also owns Waitrose supermarkets but the change in working practice applies only to those working for its department store's commercial teams. In the wider group, flexible working is encouraged as agreed with a manager. John Lewis said the changes for its commercial team were partly to enable training and development after it recruited 50 new members of staff and to aid collaboration as it works on a turnaround plan to boost profits. However, some workers have reacted angrily to the change, saying there is not enough space in the group's new head office in Pimlico, central London, according to trade journal Retail Week, which first reported the change in working patterns. The group is in the middle of a tough turnaround plan started by former chair Sharon White and continued under her successor, Jason Tarry. That has involved closing about 16 department stores and at least 20 Waitrose outlets and cutting thousands of head office jobs. Group sales rose 3% to £12.8bn in the 12 months to 25 January 2025, as underlying profit rose from £42m to £126m and sales growth picked up through December and January. A John Lewis spokesperson said: 'Flexible working is an important part of our offer; everyone in our business can request to work flexibly, and most central office partners have hybrid working arrangements in place. 'A collaborative culture is critical to help create the best product ranges and store environment for our customers and we're taking steps to encourage team members to spend time together in our offices, our stores, meeting brands and suppliers and balancing this with working remotely.'
