Prime members get an early start to a season of savings with deep discounts on holiday must-haves across toys, electronics, fashion, beauty, kitchen, home, Amazon Devices, and everything else you need and love

To further its commitment to helping small businesses be resilient during COVID-19 and beyond, today Amazon Canada has also opened its small and medium-sized business storefront at amazon.ca/supportsmall, a one-stop shop that profiles over 70 Canadian business owners selling on Amazon.ca from coast to coast

SEATTLE, Sept. 28, 2020 /CNW/ - (NASDAQ: AMZN) —Amazon's annual Prime Day event is back in time for the holidays, taking place on October 13-14 just after Canadian Thanksgiving. The two-day shopping event delivers Prime members incredible savings and deep discounts on over one million deals globally across every category. Prime Day kicks off at midnight PT on Tuesday, October 13 and runs through Wednesday, October 14, for Prime members in Canada, the U.S., U.K, U.A.E, Spain, Singapore, Netherlands, Mexico, Luxembourg, Japan, Italy, Germany, France, China, Belgium, Austria, Australia, and – new for the first time this year – Turkey and Brazil. Members can shop deals and top products for the holiday season including toys, TVs, electronics, fashion, beauty, kitchen, home, and Amazon Devices starting today and throughout the two-day epic deals event at amazon.ca/primeday. Not a Prime member yet? Anyone can join Prime or eligible customers can start a 30-day free trial at amazon.ca/prime to participate in Prime Day.

"This year's Prime Day is the perfect opportunity for Prime members to get their holiday shopping done early from the comfort of their homes – and to have more time to spend with their family and friends throughout the season," said Jeff Wilke, Amazon CEO Worldwide Consumer. "In the midst of an unprecedented year, we're committed to making this the most successful Prime Day ever for small businesses and excited for members worldwide to discover new ways to support local entrepreneurs and save big on everything they need and love."

Early Prime Day Deals Start Now
Starting today, Prime members can shop early offers and deals everyday leading up to Prime Day on October 13 & 14.

  • Amazon Devices – Starting today, get two Echo Dot devices for $49.98 and save $90. Starting October 6, save $45 on Echo Auto and save $40 on Echo Show 5.
  • Amazon Music – For just $0.99, Prime members who haven't yet tried Amazon Music Unlimited can get four months of the premium streaming tier with unlimited access to tens of millions of songs, ad-free.
  • Gift Cards – Reload $100 or more on your gift card balance and get a $7.50 promotional credit.
  • For the Home – Save on on Zinus Mattress favourites, up to 20% on select smart home products, $30 when you spend $150 on select Bosch tools, and more. Visit amazon.ca/primeday to shop all lead-up deals.

Support Small Businesses in Canada
This has been a challenging year for many small businesses, but selling in Amazon's stores has enabled tens of thousands of smaller companies to sustain and even grow their businesses through the COVID-19 pandemic. Last year small and medium-sized businesses far exceeded $2 billion in sales globally on Prime Day, making it the biggest Amazon shopping event ever for third-party sellers when comparing two-day periods. This year customers can shop hundreds of products from small and medium-sized businesses from across Canada in a newly-created  storefront at amazon.ca/supportsmall. From now until Prime Day, when stopping by amazon.ca/primeday to shop exclusive lead-up deals, customers will have the opportunity to shop from hundreds of products from independent Canadian selling partners, all now in one storefront to make it easier than ever to identify and shop local on Amazon.ca. These innovators, artisans, and entrepreneurs are an invaluable part of the Amazon family and during these challenging times, we encourage our customers to shop from these unique businesses which increase variety and contribute to the ever-expanding selection available to our customers worldwide.

We're Hiring!
Earlier this month, Amazon announced it is hiring an additional 100,000 regular full-time and part-time jobs in its fulfillment and logistics network throughout the U.S. and Canada, as well as opening 100 new Operations buildings across fulfillment centres, delivery stations, sortation centers and other sites in September alone. These permanent positions will join the hundreds of thousands of employees already working across Amazon's networks to ensure fast and efficient delivery for customers through the rest of the year, and beyond. Interested candidates can find out more at amazon.ca/apply.
