Amazon Prime Day 2022 dates announced with an early offers preview
The Amazon Prime Day 2022 event will start July 12 at 3AM Eastern, and continue on July 13, announced the shopping platform. After holding its big annual Prime Day sale in the unorthodox months of October or June during the last two unorthodox years, Amazon is now back to its traditional Prime Day shopping spree month of July. Another reason that Prime Day 2022 may be different is that it will be the first after Jeff Bezos stepped down and the new Amazon CEO Andy Jassy took over.
