If you've never had Prime or stopped subscribing a while ago then it's definitely worth checking out a simple shopping tip today. Amazon is about to launch another mega sale event which kicks off tomorrow, October 8, with the promise of huge savings across a swathe of products and devices. The Big Deal Days showcase should be a perfect time to save some money but you'll only be able to access the offers if you have Prime.

That's a plan which usually costs £8.99 per month but you can try it for free and get those upcoming offers without grabbing your wallet.

So how does free Prime access work?

Amazon has an incentive that lets you sign up for Prime for free on a 30-day trial. Once the month is up you'll then have to pay but the online retailer lets you cancel at any time.

That basically means you can join today, take advantage of the Big Deal Days sale event and then turn off Prime before you start getting charged.

Just be warned that you must set a reminder to cancel or you'll be billed automatically.

We're still waiting to find on what the biggest bargains will be from Amazon but the firm has said devices from the likes of Philips, Shark, ghd, Microsoft and Bosch will be discounted.

It's also likely that Amazon's own-brand gadgets including the Echo, Fire TV Stick and Kindle will also be dropped in price.

Express.co.uk will bring you all the deals live so watch this space.

Of course, if you sign up for Prime you'll get other benefits such as unlimited fast delivery, access to Prime Video and early deals that are exclusive to Prime members.
