Amazon’s Spring Sale 2025 dates have been officially announced, bringing a whole week of discounts across tech, gaming, home appliances, and more. If you’re looking for a deal ahead of the usual summer shopping rush, this might be the best chance to grab something at a lower price, especially if you lack a Prime membership come Prime Day 2025. Here’s everything you need to know, from when the sale begins to what kinds of offers you can expect, and even some, frankly incredible, early deals as well.
When is the Amazon Spring Sale?
The 2025 Amazon Spring Sale officially runs from Tuesday, March 25, to Monday, March 31. One big difference compared to Prime Day is that you don’t need an Amazon Prime subscription to access these deals. That means anyone can take advantage of the sale without committing to Amazon’s paid membership, making it one of the more accessible discount events on the calendar.
Best Amazon Spring Sale Deals
If past years are any indication, the Spring Sale tends to highlight tech, gaming accessories, home gadgets, and personal electronics. Whether you’re after a new TV, LEGO sets, 4K Blu-rays, or a VR headset to see what all the hype is about, there should be plenty of solid price drops.
Right now there are already some worthy discounts at Amazon, so consider these early deals before the sale officially kicks off. My favorite right now is on the Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition, down to just $49.99 for both Switch and PS4.
How To Find The Best Deals
Amazon sales events can be overwhelming, with flash discounts appearing and disappearing faster than some video game preorders. Instead of getting lost in endless scrolling, a good strategy is to:
- Bookmark a deals page – We’ll be rounding up the best offers right here on IGN, so checking back throughout the sale will save you from digging through Amazon’s endless listings.
- Otherwise, keep up with the latest deals we find on IGN's Deals account on Twitter.
- Use price-tracking tools – Sites like CamelCamelCamel can help you see whether a discount is actually worth it or if the price was artificially inflated before the sale.
- Act fast on high-demand products – If you’re eyeing something popular, like a 2TB SSD for under $140, Pokemon TCG sets, or a new GPU, deals don’t always stick around for the full week.
What About Amazon Prime Day?
But, should you just wait for Prime Day in the summer instead? It’s a fair question. Prime Day (typically in July) is often the bigger event, with steeper discounts on Amazon-branded products like Echo devices, Kindles, and Fire TV sticks. However, for third-party brands, there’s no guarantee that prices will be better in July than they are in March.
If there’s a specific item you’ve been meaning to pick up and it’s heavily discounted during the Spring Sale, it’s probably worth grabbing rather than waiting months for a potential—but not guaranteed—better deal.
The Amazon Spring Sale might not have the same level of hype as Prime Day, but that’s part of what makes it appealing. There’s less competition for deals, no requirement to have an Amazon Prime membership, and plenty of solid discounts across tech, gaming, and home essentials.
If you’re looking for the best deals, check back here throughout the event, as we’ll be highlighting price drops that are actually worth your time—no filler, no unnecessary "savings" on things no one actually wants.
