How long does Prime Day last? Here’s when the deals will disappear
Time flies when you’re having fun shopping for deals! One day of Prime Day is down and we have another one to go. We’ve found plenty of great deals for the second day of Prime Day, including slashed prices on Apple tech, robot vacuums, bestselling TVs and more.
While shopping, you may be wondering when exactly Prime Day ends. The answer actually depends on your time zone. Read on below to find out how much time you have left to shop Amazon Prime Day 2024, the best deals to buy before Prime Day ends and how long you have to wait until the next Prime Day rolls around.
How long does Prime Day last?
Amazon Prime Day lasts from Tuesday, July 16 to Wednesday, July 17. If you’re looking for the exact times, know that the sale starts at 12 a.m. Pacific time on July 16 and ends at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time.
What time does Prime Day end tomorrow?
Prime Day ends at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time on July 17.
When is Amazon’s next Prime Day?
At this time, we don’t know. Prime Day usually happens once a year, around the middle of July. However, last year Amazon surprised us with a second Prime Day sale on October 10 and 11. If Amazon does decide to do a second Prime Day sale this year, we believe it could happen around the same time – mid-October.

And since the Echo Dot links with the Amazon shopping service, it knows what you’ve ordered in the past. So, with a voice command like, “Hey Alexa, re-order paper towels,” it will look up your past order for paper towels and duplicate it.
If you subscribe to Amazon Prime Music, Audible, Apple Music or Spotify, you can command the Echo Dot to play whatever you want, whenever you want to hear it.

Amazon Fire 40″ TV 2-Series: Save 32%
Amazon has created its own lineup of affordable Fire TVs. These all support Amazon’s Alexa digital assistant via the TV’s included voice remote.
This 2023 model Amazon Fire 40-inch 2-Series TV is great for smaller viewing spaces, especially if you’re shopping for a budget-friendly smart TV that supports all of the video streaming services you already subscribe to, including Amazon Prime Video. The TV supports HDR10 and HLG, along with Dolby Digital audio.
When watching your favorite shows, you’ll benefit from the TV’s 60Hz refresh rate. It’s not 120Hz, but its more than adequate for most programming. The TV also has two HDMI 1.4, one HDMI Arc, one USB 2.0 and one ethernet port built into the back of the unit.
Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max: Save 42%
If you have an older TV that’s does not contain smart technology, or your existing smart TV doesn’t use Amazon’s FireTV OS (and you want it to), simply plug this Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max into the HDMI port of your TV. Presto — you now have a smart TV.
This includes support for the FireTV OS and access to Alexa via the remote control.
In addition to giving you quick access to all of the video streaming services you subscribe to, when you’re not actually watching TV, the Amazon Fire TV Stick can display a selection of famous artworks as its screensaver.
Amazon Fire TV Cube: Save 29%
If you think you know everything this box can do, you may be wrong.
It can serve as a smart speaker in your home and give you ongoing access to the Alexa digital assistant. The speaker itself plays on-demand streaming audio (including music) from a handful of streaming services.
And when you also plug the TV Cube into your TV via its HDMI port, you get access to the same features and functions as an Amazon Fire TV streaming stick to your TV. So you get instant access to the FireTV OS on your TV, plus access to Alexa.
Now priced at just $100 (which is 29% off its usual price), the TV Cube is an easy way to bring Alexa digital assistant TV functionality into your home through a smart speaker and your TV — all with just one gadget.
Amazon Fire TV soundbar: Save 25%
Let’s face it: A lot of TVs look great, but when it comes to sound? Meh.
One very affordable way to improve this is to connect an Amazon Fire TV. Sure, it works with Amazon Fire TVs, but you can plug it into virtually any TV to enhance its sound quality.
For $90, you should keep your expectations in check. You’re not going to bathe in robust surround sound with rich bass via a single, low-cost soundbar. But this soundbar does generate decently powered two-channel stereo audio with support for DTS:X and Dolby Audio. This is a 24-inch long soundbar that comes with a voice-activated remote control (so yes, it supports Alexa).
The soundbar gets plugged into a power outlet and the HDMI port of your TV (using the supplied cables). Within the soundbar, you’ll benefit from two, 20-watt speakers. This gives it the power to full an average-size room with stereo sound.
Lodge 10.25-inch cast iron skillet: Save 42%
This Lodge cast iron skillet is part of the brand’s classic series, so this pan is as traditional as it gets when it comes to cast iron. The pan comes pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, which saves you time from having to season it on your own prior to cooking (though you will have to regularly season the pan as you use it over time). It’s compatible on multiple cooking surfaces, including in the oven, on the stovetop (including induction stovetops), a grill, and, of course, over a campfire.
The brand says that with this cast iron skillet you can grill, braise, sear, sauté, bake, broil and fry foods. That’s why you can make so many different dishes with a cast iron skillet, ranging from cornbread to steak. The latter is easily the most popular dish to cook in a cast iron though, as the cast iron’s noted heat retention allows for a great, crusty sear that is hard for other pan materials to mimic. Plus, the skillet can handle oven temps as high as 500 degrees.
This cast iron skillet boasts a 4.7-star rating on Amazon. Reviewers are largely pleased with their purchase, with one reviewer calling this Lodge classic series skillet “a beast,” adding “..it’s a Lodge, as always, great quality and value.” Another reviewer said that it’s “the best pan on the market. I have had mine for over 12 years and as long as you oil it and take care of it, it will last for decades.”
Vtopmart airtight food storage containers, set of 24: Save 44%
This comprehensive food storage container set will tame even the messiest of pantries. It includes 24 containers with lids for a discounted price of $29, which breaks down to about $1.21 per container.
The set comes with 12 tall containers (six that are 2.5 quarts and six that are 1.8 quarts), six medium containers (1.5 quarts) and six small containers (0.7 quarts). We love that these come with decorative, chalk labels, which will make organizing your pantry that much easier.
In addition to the downright stylish labels, we also like these food storage containers’ airtight seal, which is achieved thanks to the silicone gasket on the lids. This tight closure will help keep your food fresh and protect it from pantry bugs (this is especially crucial for flour).
The containers are made of dishwasher-safe, BPA-free plastic, and are stackable and conveniently see-through, making it easy to find ingredients and snacks as well as discern how much of them you have left. Keep in mind these are only for dry foods.
Labigo electric spin scrubber: Save 46%
The Labigo electric spin scrubber cleans the surfaces of your home more easily and efficiently. The spin scrubber comes with four brush heads, including one small and large flat brush, a dome brush and a corner brush, the latter of which is great for scrubbing around your baseboards as well as your toilet’s base.
What also helps with getting into hard-to-reach places is the scrubber’s adjustable base, which can be extended up to 3.5 feet, and a scrub head that can be rotated. These will give you the ability to scrub high and low in your home, from the bottom of the tub to the crown molding that lines your ceilings. The scrubber can last up to an hour and a half on a single charge.
The Labigo electric spin scrubber has a 4.4-star rating on Amazon. One reviewer wrote, “I can’t begin to explain how happy I am with this item; I have a bad back and threw it out twice, cleaning the hall bathtub. I am 56 and no longer going to even attempt it again…then I saw this on a cleaning video on TikTok; game changer! I wet the tub, I sprayed foaming cleanser and I let the machine do its’ thing. This is a magical clean after one use and trust me, it looked nothing like this before.”
Apple Watch Series 9: Save 30%
The current model Apple Watch Series 9 is the most popular smartwatch in the world. It’s designed to work in conjunction with an Apple iPhone, but if you invest in the GPS-plus-cellular version of the watch, it can work autonomously, too.

Apple Watch is designed to do it all — help you communicate, stream music, stay up-to-date on the news, serve as a fitness tracker and health monitoring device, help you stay productive, call for help in an emergency, play games, display your favorite photos and so much more.
Ahead of Prime Day 2024, Amazon is offering generous discounts on various configurations of the Apple Watch 9, including the 41mm, GPS only version that comes with an Apple Sport Band that’s been discounted by $100, so you’ll pay just $299 for it.
Apple AirPods (2nd generation): Save 47%
The second-generation Apple AirPods may not be the latest model, but they’re still one of the most sought-after earbuds on the market. These are some of the most versatile earbuds you can buy if you’re a regular iOS user. But beyond that, these are great earbuds that are perfect for tossing in your bag and heading out into the world. They just connect when you need them. There’s no frustrating need to pair them.
These 4.7-star-rated earbuds boast more than 24 hours of total listening time with the wireless charging case, fool-proof one-tap setup for Apple device owners and a low-latency wireless connection for full immersion when consuming movies and music. If you need an everyday set of earbuds that look and feel premium, these are a great and affordable option.
Shark AI Ultra voice control robot vacuum: Save 51%
This powerful robot vacuum is an expert at lifting dirt from a variety of floor types, from carpets to hard floors. Thanks to its self-cleaning brush roll, it can power through hair, debris, pet hair, and other nastiness with the greatest of ease.
It cleans in a grid pattern that takes multiple passes over the dirtier parts of your home so you get a deep clean. It can map your home using 360-degree LiDAR vision as well, so it knows where it should be headed and avoids obstacles all on its own.
Plus, when it’s full, this vacuum empties itself back at its base, where it can hold up to 60 days of detritus. Its bagless base means no pricey add-ons, either. All you have to do is empty the reservoir when it’s full.
Set a cleaning schedule, tell your vacuum to clean on command, or adjust settings with the robot’s voice control options. It works with Alexa and Google Assistant for quick setup, so it’s good to go when you’re ready to issue commands.

House Ethics Committee planned to vote Friday on whether to release report on Matt Gaetz
The House Ethics Committee, which has been conducting an investigation into sexual misconduct and obstruction allegations against Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, scheduled a vote for Friday on whether to release its report, according to three sources with knowledge of the committee’s work.
Hours after President-elect Donald Trump said he planned to nominate Gaetz to be attorney general, Gaetz resigned his congressional seat, effective immediately.
“I do not intend to take the oath of office for the same office in the 119th Congress, to pursue the position of Attorney General in the Trump Administration,” Gaetz said in his resignation letter obtained by CBS News
House Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters that there was about an eight-week period during which Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis could fill his seat by setting the date for a special election.
Now that Gaetz has resigned, it is unclear whether the panel will vote on releasing the report, since Gaetz is no longer in Congress.
There is precedent in Congress on the Senate side for an ethics committee report to become public after a member resigns from Congress, however. In 2011, this happened when Sen. John Ensign of Nevada resigned amid allegations that he tried to hide an extramarital affair.
But it’s not clear that that would apply to the House, leaving open the possibility that the report on Gaetz would not be released.
In June, the House Ethics Committee released a statement saying it was investigating a range of allegations against Gaetz, including sexual misconduct, illicit drug use, and bribery.
Multiple sources at the time told CBS News that four women had informed the House Ethics Committee that they had been paid to go to parties that included sex and drugs, and that Gaetz had also attended. The committee has Gaetz’s Venmo transactions that allegedly show payments for the women.
Gaetz has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and has called the committee’s investigation a “frivolous” smear campaign.
Some of the allegations of sexual misconduct under review by the committee were also the subject of a previous Department of Justice probe into Gaetz. Federal investigators sought to determine if Gaetz violated sex trafficking and obstruction of justice laws, but no charges were filed.
The House Ethics Committee resumed its investigation into Gaetz in 2023, following the Justice Department’s decision not to pursue charges against him.
Gaetz has long blamed then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, also a Republican, for the probe. And Gaetz later led the movement to sack McCarthy as speaker.
