Don’t assume it’s the best deal just because it’s Prime Day. Cross-check with Flipkart, Croma, or official brand websites. Use price-tracking tools for historical prices.
Use bank and wallet offers smartly

Amazon usually partners with banks (like ICICI, SBI, or HDFC) for additional instant discounts. Stack them with no-cost EMI, Amazon Pay cashback, or coupons wherever applicable.
Know the real MRP

Some products inflate their MRP pre-sale to show a bigger discount. Always check the actual street price via Google Shopping or trusted price comparison sites.
Look out for bundle offers

Sometimes, buying a phone, laptop, or appliance with a bundled accessory or extended warranty is better than the lowest standalone price.
