5 ways a Prime membership can save you money this back-to-school season

It’s back-to-school season and you might find yourself needing to buy more supplies, snacks, clothing, or other items for your kids this time of year.

Amazon is a one-stop destination for back-to-school shopping. From everyday supplies, to the most-wanted fashion, to the latest tech, there’s something for every kid and university or college student. And since Prime helps members get the most out of Amazon, you can save big this back-to-school season when you shop with a Prime membership.

Here are 5 ways you can save this back to school season:

To make back-to-school shopping easier, Amazon has a Back to School storefront for Pre-K to Grade 12 students with discounts on backpacks, clothes, supplies and educational toys, and school supplies starting at $2. Additionally, for students starting or going back to College or University in the fall, the Off to University storefront offers deals on laptops, dorm essentials under $20, bedding, and more.

Prime members enjoy fast, free delivery on millions of items across the site. So whether you’re shopping for school supplies like backpacks, art supplies, or dorm décor, you can expect the items you order to arrive fast, saving you both money and countless last-minute trips to the store.

If heading back to school means more reading for your kids, you might be happy to know that a Prime membership gives you access to Amazon First Reads, which lets you download a newly released book for free every month. Plus, Prime Reading lets you borrow 10 titles at a time from a collection of thousands of digital books. The options change frequently, so check out what’s available now.

Young adults ages 19 to 24 and university, college, and CEGEP students have access to 50% off their Prime membership, which means $4.99 a month or $49 a year. This includes free delivery, streaming of popular movies and TV shows on -demand, ad-free music streaming, and early access to deals. Not a member yet?

As your kids head back to school, there may be items you’ll need to replenish regularly in the coming months (think lunchbox snacks and art supplies). Subscribe & Save helps customers save money on regularly scheduled deliveries, and you can even unlock extra savings—up to 15% off—on eligible subscriptions when you receive five or more subscriptions in one auto-delivery.
