Can’t wait until Amazon Prime Day? These fitness deals have already dropped
Amazon Prime Day is one of the biggest shopping events of the year, when bargain hunters can expect stellar deals across tech, beauty, home appliances, mattresses, sportswear and more.
A thrifter’s favourite season, the annual event sees prices slashed on everything from TVs and headphones to coffee machines.
Last year it was postponed from its usual date in July to October because of safety concerns regarding the coronavirus pandemic. This year it’s happening even earlier, as the official dates for Amazon Prime Day 2021 are June 21 and June 22.
