I think we all know the truth about Prime day.  It’s a great chance for Amazon to boost sales like they would on Black Friday in the middle of the summer!

The nice thing is that we can benefit from some super awesome deals before black Friday ahead of our big shopping season.  In this post I want to help you get the most hostess, gift and celebration benefit out of Prime day every single year!

Not a prime member?  No problem!  You can get a free Prime trial here and cancel before the end of the month!

Here are my favorite deals for this year!

1. Outdoor Firepit

Endless Summer GAD15255SP Square LP Gas Outdoor, Oil Rubbed Bronze Fire Table, Black

We have one of these one our back porch that is very similar to this one and are loving it this summer!   Great for entertaining and hanging out with friends on cool summer evening and crisp fall gatherings.

2. Echo Dot

Echo Dot (3rd Gen) – Smart speaker with Alexa – Sandstone

We have several of these around our house and really enjoy them.  My husband has hooked them up to some home automation accessories and now I can turn on my bedroom lights and fan by giving the echo a simple command.

These are also great for entertaining because you can have them play music playlist that come free with your Amazon Prime Music account which is a perk of being a Prime Member.  We have used ours as a our party DJ many times!

These also make great gifts for teens, birthdays, graduates and holidays!

Get it for over 50% off.

3. Ready to finally ditch cable?

Fire TV Stick 4K with Alexa Voice Remote, streaming media player (Includes $45 Sling TV Credit)

We don’t have cable, we have a Roku and the Fire TV stick is just as awesome.  It’s over 50% off right now and is a great way to watch unlimited entertainment from Netflix, Hulu and Prim Video (prime video has great shows and movies you get with your Prime Membership).

4. Instant Pot

These electric pressure cookers are all the rage nowadays.  They serve so many purposes.  In fact, I use mine as an extra pot for keeping food hot and holiday gatherings and parties in addition to cooking and making my own hummus from dried beans!  These babies are a solid 40% off!!

 

Both on sale, you can choose between the 10 in 1 Programmable or the Wifi one for the same price!

 

 

5. Wood Serving Tray for cheese, meats and crackers.

Meat and cheese trays are ALWAYS a hit whether I’m hosting or bringing food a party.  It’s easy, quick and always a crowd pleaser.  I carry by wooden board everywhere I go.  This cheese tray from Amazon is awesome because it comes with a secret compartment for cutting/serving.  It’s also 55% off!

 

 

6. Take the party anywhere with a bluetooth speaker!

This was a purchase I made this year so that when people are sitting outside or I’m on the go, the beach or the lake I can take a little party music with me!

Zosam Portable Bluetooth Speaker
