It’s official: March is going to see its very own Amazon Prime Day. Well … sort of. The retailer announced that it will hold its Big Spring Sale from March 20 to March 25. It’s looking to be one heckuva way to spring into the new season with some sweet, sweet savings on everything from spring cleaning essentials to fashion upgrades to beauty must-haves — and much more.
There will be a metric ton of sales to take advantage of during this savings event, so if you want to streamline your shopping list (and save a whole lot of time), read on to plan ahead and make the most of your bargain hunting. Here’s everything you need to know about Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, and then some.
When is Amazon’s Big Spring Sale?
The Big Spring Sale will begin Wednesday, March 20, and run through Monday, March 25, kicking off at 3 a.m. ET/12 a.m. PT and ending at the same time. But you don’t have to wait to start taking advantage of the markdowns — keep on scrolling to see some of our favorite items that are already on sale at Amazon.
What is the Amazon Big Spring Sale?
Spring has sprung, and thanks to Amazon’s new Big Spring Sale tradition, so have the savings. Amazon is already famous for its deal bonanzas like Prime Day and Black Friday, and we’re hoping this multi-day save-tacular is going to be similarly impressive, especially considering it’s Amazon’s first big savings event of 2024.
Like Prime Day, we’re expecting mega markdowns on big brands like Apple, Ninja and Samsung. Unlike Black Friday, where holiday shopping reigns supreme, or July and October Prime Days, this March event is well-timed for checking a host of items off your own list, like travel necessities and outdoor must-haves ahead of spring and summer. You’ll also likely find great gift options for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, if you’re the type to think ahead.
What will be discounted for Amazon’s Big Spring Sale?
Information on specific markdowns is soon to come, but we already have a tantalizing taste of the deals in store at the Big Spring Sale. They include sweet savings on timely categories like spring cleaning necessities and warm-weather fashion finds, as well as classics like electronics and kitchenware.
How can I save even more during the Amazon Big Spring Sale?
Unlike Prime Day, Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is not a Prime-exclusive event — however, as an Amazon Prime shopper, you’ll be able to take advantage of more savings and benefits like free shipping. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.) If you want to wait, you can sign up for Amazon Prime at any time, including during the event itself.

Our reviewer wrote of the viral-favorite super-scrubber, “It’s conveniently water-resistant, with a small brush head that is designed to fit into tight corners and small spaces — think grout lines, faucets, window edges, tire crevices. … Now that I’ve seen the wonders the Rubbermaid Reveal can work on stained grout, I’ll be using it for pretty much any cleaning chore involving scrubbing.”
