2. It's a fake hype sale to get people thinking they are getting real bargains

It doesn't matter if I buy something on Prime Day or any other day. If I need something from them I'll order it. Also, I don't go into debt buying from Amazon since I pay my VISA bill in-full every month.

I just heard on the local news Amazon expects to sell $23 billion dollars on Prime Day sales. Like the local news anchor said, "don't go into debt for something you don't need."
