Consumer Rumor: Another Prime Day This Year?

Notable Changes to Previous Prime Days

Prime Day started as—get this—a single day! Now, it's a 48-hour shopping event. The first major change, one might argue, happened on Amazon Prime Day 2017. That's when the event first surpassed the 24-hour mark. That year, Prime Day extended to 30 hours.

Prime Day extended to a full 48 hours in 2019. The event ran from July 15th through July 16th, and we saw several flash sales during those extra hours.
