Almost everyone has bought an item at Amazon at one point in their lives. It’s convenient and prices are competitive. However, not all people know the different ways they can use to get the best value for their money while shopping at Amazon.

Here are some shopping tips you need to know to get the best deal out of Amazon:

1. Be familiar with Amazon deals.

Finding deals on Amazon is so easy because the online selling giant offers its users a lot of perks. Every day, you can find great discount offerings by checking out the Deals of the Day and Lightning Deals. Keeping Amazon Coupons also helps.

You may have heard of Amazon’s Prime membership. It’s a deal in itself because for only $99 a year, you can enjoy free shipping, tons of other free stuff, and exclusive privileges. For Amazon Family, you can save 20% on diapers and wipes, and 15% off of your baby registry. Amazon Warehouse is the place to go if you’re looking for used, pre-loved items to gain additional 15-20% discounts. You can also check the Amazon Outlet for great deals on close-out or overstocked items for 30% off or more.

2. Order your household staples with Subscribe and Save.

Save more when buying various grocery items you need on a regular basis through Amazon’s Subscribe and Save program. If you subscribe to one item, you get a 5% discount. If you subscribe to more than five, you get a 15% discount for all of them. Plus, the items will be delivered to your doorstep. Totally effortless!

3. Monitor prices daily and buy at their lowest point.

Amazon’s prices change daily, so if you want to save on an item you don’t urgently need, check its price history at CamelCamelCamel.com. The website has a price tracking service that can keep you notified when an item you want from Amazon goes down in price. You just have to copy and paste URL of an item from Amazon and it will display the price history. Using this may help you observe a pattern on specific times its price goes the lowest so you can plan your purchase.

4. Gain Amazon gift cards in exchange for your old stuff.

Books, electronics, video games, and other eligible stuff that you don’t use anymore can be traded in for Amazon for gift cards you can use to purchase new items at the site.

5. Get shipping refund or Amazon Prime extension if a shipping date is missed.

Amazon sets a guaranteed delivery date for your orders, and if items you purchased did not arrive by that time, you can contact Amazon’s customer service to get a refund on shipping fees. If you’re a Prime member enjoying free shipping perks, you can get a one-month free extension on your subscription.

6. Choose no-rush shipping with Prime to get store credits.

Patience is not only a virtue – it also pays. If you’re a Prime member, you can opt for standard shipping for your non-urgent items to get a complimentary promotional credit you can use for future purchases with Amazon.

7. Add a pre-order item to skip the minimum needed to buy discounted add-ons.

Amazon’s add-on items like lip balm and toilet paper are offered at a very low price, but your orders should at least cost $25 to use the discounts. You can add a pre-order item to your purchase and check out, but if you change your mind about it in the future, you can cancel it and still keep your add-on items.

8. Spice up your Amazon shopping experience with browser extensions.

To add functionality and make some tasks a lot easier, you can install browser extensions that can enable you to track price changes, add to your wish list, donate to charity and more.

9. Get a refund if you see price drops after your purchase.

Amazon is willing to issue a refund for the price difference on an item you purchased from Amazon if you end up seeing its price drop within 7 days. Sweet!

10. Find a person’s Amazon Wishlist with just their name or email.

Not sure if you can choose the best present from Amazon gift ideas? If your recipient is an Amazon member, you can search and look for their wish list, baby, or wedding registry easily by typing in their full name or email address.
