This is How the Livingetc Team Shop the Amazon Sales

Amazon has a lot to offer — literally countless products, brands, and deals from home decor, to furniture, to tech. It also runs a lot of sales and it can be hard to cut through the noise and find the most design-forward pieces, which absolutely exist on Amazon — the key is knowing where to look!

That's where we come in — at Livingetc, we've worked our way around the Amazon site more times than we can count. "When I think of sales, I think of Amazon — and vice versa. Whether it’s large-scale furniture or home decor, Amazon consistently offers the lowest prices around," says Julia Demer, our Style Editor.

However, to find the best Amazon deals, you have to have a strategy. As Hugh Metcalf, Livingetc's editor says: "It's all about knowing your "keywords" — pay attention to the objects you're drawn to, and pick out any words from their titles that best describe your style. Keep them saved, and use them to prefix whatever you're looking for. It may be a style of decor, an unusual material, or even an "Amazon Brand" you may not have heard of before, but that delivers on style."

From Amazon Prime Day to Black Friday and all the sales in between, Amazon is a one-stop shop for all the best home deals. As Style Editor, Brigid Kennedy says: "It's quite hard to keep track of which retailers are offering discounts when, but with Amazon, you can find everything you need at 5, 10, 15% off and in one place." So when you know how and where to find the most design-forward pieces — and for a great price — you can't go too far wrong.

What to Consider When Shopping Amazon Sales

Reviews: How many reviews does the product have? How many are positive? Read reviews and look at the images. Discount 1 and 2-star reviews based on service, rather than the quality of the product — Amazon's retailers have a pretty good reputation for solving problems and offering returns where needed, and these poor reviews often come from trigger-happy buyers who don't wait for a resolution.

Style: When you spot a design you like, click through to the Store. You'll often find products of a similar style, and you can "follow" them to keep an eye out for other designs and new additions — it's a very useful shortcut for finding the most design-forward styles.

Materials: At Livingetc, we like the look for less, but not at the expense of quality. Look for solid materials, whether that's wood or stone, rather than laminated replicas. In textiles, too, fabric listings can help you make a guess at whether something is going to look as expensive in real life as it does on the site.

Discount: How much does it have off? Outside of major sale events, discounts on Amazon can be small, but it pays to be conscious of not buying larger investment pieces only because they have a little money off. It's better to shop with your heart, with a little bit of head, rather than buying the most discounted option, only not to love it once it arrives.

FAQs

Can anyone shop the Amazon Prime Day Sale?

Amazon Prime Day discounts are only available to Prime members. You can sign up on Amazon for a free 30 day trial — after that, membership costs $14.99 a month, but includes free and fast shipping, where available, and a membership to Amazon Prime Video's ad-supported tier.

What are Prime early deals on Amazon?
