Amazon Prime Day will take place midday Monday, July 16th and continue through Tuesday, July 17th, according to a Prime Day 2018 banner published on the Amazon UK website.
According to TechRadar, the 36-hour period for Prime Day 2018 makes it the longest Prime ‘day’ ever, exceeding last year’s 30-hour period of deals. Last year, Amazon’s version of Black Friday was its biggest one yet–sales grew by more than 60 percent from the prior year and the company added “tens of millions” of new, paying Prime members, CNBC reports.

Historically, the best deals on Prime Day are for Amazon’s own products (Echo, Kindle, Fire Stick, etc), but this year, the company will reportedly shell out better deals on grocery (thanks to the Whole Foods acquisition) and apparel.
The website BestBlackFriday.com analyzed Amazon’s deals on Black Friday and Prime Day and found that in 2016, 77% of Prime Day prices were better than comparable deals offered on Black Friday, Business Insider points out.
