The thing I noticed that no one else seemed to mention before was they said there were going to be MORE sales than Black Friday. Not BETTER sales. It's just a day to hype everyone up to buy shit that may actually be a better price some other day.

Meh lame. I was hoping for cool toys for my niece and nephews birthday in a few weeks. I bought baby wipes, though!

I'm glad I'm not alone on the whole "these deals suck" thing. And the few decent ones sell out quickly because there is nothing else even remotely interesting. I am over the socks and granny panties sale.

Agreed. Not finding anything. Oh well I guess it was worth looking.

I was eyeing the Kindle Kids version...$60 off is pretty good. But otherwise, somewhat disappointed!

What a let down!
Less of the cheap looking jewelry, Amazon. How about items people actually want??
hostess / papaya / 10219 posts
I've gotten a couple small things- a phone charger, wipes, but most stuff either isn't that great of a deal or it sells out instantly
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
Ugh I want to buy the wipes, but I can't get the 60% off to work for some reason!

@snowjewelz: did you go all the way to checkout page?
I got some shoes for 30% off and it didn't take it off until I was on the "pay" page - in the order summary it showed the discount but the item was still showing regular price - does that make sense?
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@travellingbee: I can't seem to get the 60% off! I bought $10.99 and $16.99 and my promo savings is only coming out to $9 and change?!
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@Mamaof2: Yeah!
Or is my math crazy?! I'm not thinking clearly this morning haha

Definitely not better than Black Friday. There's absolutely nothing I want.

I think that if I had purchased a Prime membership to participate in this, I would be pretty pissed. (Although, I love my Prime membership in general).
squash / 13208 posts
@snowjewelz: try entering promo code ELEMENTS60 at checkout and see what happens
pomelo / 5298 posts
@snowjewelz: I think you can only purchase one. Or that the 60% is only off one item. Crazy!
squash / 13208 posts
@snowjewelz: maybe it only applies to 1 purchase? Try ordering them one at a time -

@snowjewelz: your only allowed one box of wipes at the discounted price. I was super disappointed this morning.
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@MamaG: @BabyBySurpise: Ok def super lame!!
But I will still buy it, lol
hostess / papaya / 10219 posts
Oh I also got a pair of natives and some bottles for new LO.
eggplant / 11824 posts
Meh. The only thing I was excited about was the free sample set using code LUXSAMPLE when you buy $50 of "luxury beauty products". I had to buy something anyway that is an amazon luxury beauty product but keep getting "promo code not valid" reject message. I mean, I need to order it anyway, but if you promise something (aka, my free samples with purchase!), deliver on it!
ETA: I did live chat with Amazon and it took about 15 minutes, but they were able to hook me up. So I'll retract my bitching above

so glad I already have Prime (which I love!) because I'd be upset if I got it just for today. Nothing on my list is on sale.

I need a bottle warmer to scald my milk at work, so was happy to snag one at $11, and latch are the only bottles Lo will takes I picked up those.
Wipes for $2!?! That's a deal!
honeydew / 7488 posts
I got my DD a pair of Natives but so far nothing else. I do think there are lots of items that seem marked down more than usual, but I can't really tell since I haven't been following the pricing closely on those things.
pomelo / 5298 posts
We needed a new piece of luggage and we snagged a set on a lightening deal that was about the same price and quality of the individual piece we had our eye on. But totally random, nonetheless. I forgot to grab the wipes though, I guess I'll do another order today.
pomelo / 5298 posts
@T-Mom: @travellingbee: How much are you getting natives for? I feel like I'm missing something.
honeydew / 7622 posts
I find the format a little confusing. Oh well. I'll just keep shopping the N sale
honeydew / 7488 posts
@MamaG: They have to qualify for the deal, and not all of them do. All of the ones that qualify you can get to through the 30% kids clothes link http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_ex_n_1?rh=n%3A7141123011%2Cn%3A11653390011%2Cp_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER&bbn=11653390011&ie=UTF8&qid=1436971568&lo=fashion-girls-shoes
I got mine for 20.99 before tax. It's not the very best deal, but pretty good.

I heard on the radio this morning that Wal-Mart might be coming out with their own "Black Friday" sale to combat Amazon's. I haven't seen anything yet though.
grapefruit / 4770 posts
@Alivoo01: it's been up at Walmart.com "Thousands" of rollbacks. Also nothing impressive over there.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
Saltwater sandals are 30% off! haha... at least I'm buying SOMEthing on prime day.
wonderful olive / 19353 posts
@dc yoga bee: Maybe that's why I haven't noticed. Ha! The deals on the rollback seemed normal to me.

This funny face plate is a lightning deal and pretty inexpensive: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001YHQU7U?ref_=gb1h_img_m-6_6222_6da90cb5&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
My kids received as gift from a friend and they really enjoy it

I got my one pack of baby wipes I was really hoping for a few boxes since LO #2 is on the way.
I also tried to get the lightening deal for the fire stick and it wouldn't ever work right. It said I qualified, then wouldn't put the right price in the cart. This is craziness. I wish it was better managed.
grapefruit / 4988 posts
I just got the wipes and a melissa and doug pots and pans set that was already on my wishlist for LO. Tried to grab a little skip hop backpack and it was already sold out after 2 minutes! I'm sort of glad there aren't too many more tempting deals.
GOLD / watermelon / 14076 posts
@T-Mom: I bought that plate
I also just got some diaper genie refills. I tried to get a toy for LO's birthday but was wait-listed after trying to add it to my cart 30 seconds after the deal started. Crazy!
hostess / wonderful apple seed / 16729 posts
Yeah, I got a $50 kindle and 1 box of wipes.
Not very impressed with the deals today.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
I was hoping the fire TV would go on sale. I got a box of wipes and some more prenatal vitamins.
nectarine / 2288 posts
There's a box of water wipes coming up. The value one. Has anyone used them? Are they nice?
clementine / 806 posts
WaterWipes are about to go on lightning at noon CST - we love them, so I'm trying to stock up.
