What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon’s yearly Prime Day event began yesterday and will run through 11:59 pm PST July 11. Over the next three days, Amazon is offering thousands of deals across all shopping categories, including art supplies and equipment.
What’s the Catch?
To take advantage of most these deals, though, you have to be an Amazon Prime subscriber. Amazon Prime costs $14.99 a month or $139 a year. Its benefits include faster shipping on Amazon orders, discounts at Whole Foods, and access to Amazon’s streaming entertainment. As an alternative, you can pick up a free 30-day trial of Prime here in time to shop the sale.
Are there other sales taking place?
Yes. We’ll be including great deals from Best Buy, Walmart, Blick, and other vendors.
See below for bargains on some of our favorite art materials as well as discounts on tech for the studio. These products go fast, so the time to snap them up is surely now.
