Amazon Prime Day deals to make your life easier as a busy mom!

I will continue to update this page as deals are released. Check often!

(This post contains affiliate links. My full disclosure policy is quite boring, but you can read it here if you’d like!)

Details for Amazon Prime Day 2019

  • Amazon Prime Day 2019 begins at 12 a.m. PST (3 a.m. EST) on Monday, July 15.

Is Amazon Prime Day only for Prime members?

Yes! But if you’re not a member (and you haven’t been a member in the last 12 months) you can sign up for the 30 day free trial and take advantage of the all the Prime specials.

After the sale, you can cancel your free trial before the 30 days run out, or you can keep your membership for $119 per year.

There’s also a one-month Prime membership for $12.99 – just remember to cancel it if you don’t want to keep it.

Get your Amazon Prime Membership.

1 Amazon programs I use and love:

AmazonFresh – Free Trial

Unlimited grocery delivery every month! You guys know I’m a huge fan of ordering groceries online and AmazonFresh has terrific prices and a huge selection (lots of organic too!). I actually don’t use AmazonFresh but only because it’s not available in my area yet 🙁

If you’re lucky enough to have it in your area, be sure to look at their 25-cent specials (I’ve seen full packages of Oreos and Chobani yogurt there!)

Check your zipcode for AmazonFresh

Audible – Free 30 day trial and 2 free audiobooks

This is how I get so much reading done. I’m usually listening to a non-fiction ebook from Audible while in the car or working. I’ve been listening to It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way by Lysa TerKeurst at night before bed and I’m finding that I go to bed earlier and am in a better mood (than watching Netflix!).

Oh, and you get to keep your 2 free audiobooks even if you cancel your membership!

Get your 2 free books from Audible!

FreeTime Unlimited – 1 month free

I love this service for reading ebooks – they have sooo many! We used to have Epic but I canceled it, I’m much happier with the selection of FreeTime Unlimited. They also have games and videos, I highly recommend trying this!

Try out FreeTime Unlimited!

Is this a hack? I don’t know if it’s a hack. B Is this a hack? I don’t know if it’s a hack. But it’s definitely changed me from hating baking to *liking* baking. 

I actually find it 🎉 EASY 🎉 (if you knew how much I hated to bake you’d understand!)

Especially since I started sourdough. I can’t believe I waited so long because I thought it would be hard or time consuming! 

It has actually simplified cooking at home and you know me… I’m chasing simple!

Closing out your meal plan each week will save you Closing out your meal plan each week will save you time in the future, and it takes under a minute!

Plus it’s helpful if your week didn’t go according to plan and you didn’t end up making everything you intended!

Here’s what I do: 

✔️ Checkmark
Made it and we liked it
👉🏼 move on

❌ X it out
Didn’t make it but don’t have the ingredients anymore
👉🏼 move on

🌀 Circle it
Didn’t make it but have the ingredients 
👉🏼 put first on next week’s meal plan

⭐️ Star it
Made it and loved it, need to save recipe
👉🏼 add to your recipes

➖Cross it out
Made it and hated it
👉🏼 remove from master meal plan (and take note of why you hated it)

Save this for when - not if - your plan doesn’t go according to plan!
You don’t need to do it all! #dontdoitall #fam You don’t need to do it all!
