Everything You Need to Know About Amazon’s Spring Sale Starting March 25

Amazon’s sales events are your chance to grab top tech products at sub-Prime prices, but the megaretailer is often tight-lipped about when they happen. That’s why smart deals writers like yours truly have their ears to the ground to pick up rumblings. Amazon just officially announced their Big Spring Sale, a seven-day shopping event that promises discounts of up to 40% on thousands of items.

When Is the 2025 Amazon Spring Sale?

Amazon’s 2025 Spring Sale kicks off during the last week of March and run through the end of the month. Discounts go live at midnight Pacific time on Tuesday, March 25th and expire at midnight on April 1st. No fooling! You’ll be able to see all the deals at their official Big Spring Sale page.

When Do Spring Sales Really Start?

Although the 2025 Amazon sale begins on March 25th, there are obviously going to be discounts to be found before then. We’d expect to see pre-game offers to start hitting Amazon this week. Other retailers will announce competing sales at the same time, including Best Buy and Walmart. We’ll cover all of them and compare prices to ensure you’re getting the best possible deal.

What Types of Deals Can I Find in the Amazon Spring Sale?

It’s Amazon, there’s going to be deals on everything. When we covered last year’s Spring Big Deal Days, some of the most popular items with PCMag readers were Apple’s second-generation AirPods Pro, a variety of Echo smart speakers, robot vacuums from iRobot and well-reviewed smart TVs from TCL. Amazon sales let big brands drop prices lower than they normally get. It’s also possible that Apple’s new iPads and MacBook Air models might get a discount.

In a new offer for 2025, the company is giving shoppers 50% off Amazon Haul purchases for a limited time. Amazon Haul is their new budget-friendly niche that’s only available on the app and mobile web, where all products are under $20.

Do I Need to Be an Amazon Prime Member to Shop the Deals?

(Amazon)

Nope! Unlike Amazon Prime Days, the Spring Sale will offer discounts and special offers to all Amazon shoppers. That’s not to say that Prime members won’t get free shipping and the other perks that come with the service. In addition, Amazon has said that there will be special “Prime Spring Deal” badges on exclusive offers for members. If you want to know more about Amazon Prime and whether it’s worth the cost, we have an up-to-date rundown here.

How Can I Get a Free Amazon Prime Membership?

You wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t interested in saving money, so why not snag an Amazon Prime membership for free while you’re here? We’ve written a complete guide to five ways to avoid paying for Amazon Prime, with the most universally useful method being the 30 day free trial for new members. You can cancel at no cost at any time before the 30 days expire, which means free shipping for nothing. Unfortunately, if you’ve ever had Prime on your Amazon account before, you’re not eligible for the offer. If you’re enrolled in high school or continuing education, an Amazon Student subscription has the same perks with a six-month free trial at just $69 a year. EBT or Medicaid recipients can also subscribe at a discounted price.

Are There Early Amazon Spring Sale Deals to Shop Right Now?

You bet there are. We’ve been compiling the best early Amazon spring sale deals all week, and here are some of our top picks from Our Favorite Early Deals From Amazon’s Spring Sale: Laptops, Earbuds, Speakers, & More.

This LG display uses Quantum Nano-Emitting Diode technology with tiny semiconductor nanocrystals for incredible color accuracy and brightness. The QNED80T is an entry-level set with some very nice features, including AI upscaling and Alexa-powered voice control.

You can expect lots of Amazon’s house-brand products to be discounted for the Spring Sale, but right now you can take home the very capable Fire HD 10 tablet for under a hundred bucks. In our review, we said it was a durable and power-efficient pick for media streaming and casual gaming.

This is the lowest price we’ve seen in 30 days for this midrange gaming laptop we said “packs serious processing chops” in its bulky frame in our review, with an impressive component loadout and a very nice 16″ screen.

How Long Will Amazon’s Spring Sale Deals Last?

Last year’s Spring Sale lasted six days, but 2025 sees that expand to seven, with the final day being March 31st. That means the company doesn’t have to run a deals event on April Fool’s Day, which can cause confusion. That said, sometimes deals do straggle on for a few days, and we typically keep up a listing of sale items for a little while after the event officially ends, along with a selection of the most popular items we saw discounts on for late shoppers.
