Amazon Promo Codes for May 2025

Got your cart ready to go? Here’s how to make that Amazon promo code work its magic.

Simply enter your code in the “Gift Cards and Promotional Codes” section under your payment details. Make sure to type it exactly as it appears with no extra spaces and click “Apply.” Confirm that the promo code was successfully applied by reviewing the price on the final checkout page before you finish your order.

An Amazon promo code can be applied to essentially anything on the platform. However, we're excited about cashing in on some exceptional beauty products we've hunted down on Amazon recently. 

Here's a look at some objects of our coupon-inspired affection that wowed us after delivery.

While we’re all about Amazon’s beauty offerings, the site has so much more to offer. From fashion and high-end costume jewelry to chic bedding and home décor, you’ll find it all. 

For everyday life, we’re loading our carts with tech gadgets, electronics, pet supplies, best-sellers, wellness products, and more—all while looking for ways to save with Amazon codes. Amazon coupons work across all these categories, so you can save while stocking up on everything you love.

Doing routine Amazon hauls without signing up for Amazon Prime is not the smartest move. From exclusive sales to free and fast shipping, Prime membership is practically a lifestyle at this point. As late converts, we're still kicking ourselves over how much we could have saved over the years because we thought Prime membership was a major splurge (spoiler: it's not). Let's save you some tears. Here's the unfiltered perks-versus-price breakdown.

Get Exclusive Access to Special Amazon Sales and Deals

Practically a national holiday at this point, Prime Day is a major once-annual retail event for Amazon Prime members that offers significant savings. While Prime Day generally takes place in July, Amazon doesn't formally announce the date until a few weeks beforehand.

Prime Day sales offer huge markdowns for nearly everything sold on Amazon. Prime members also get access to Lightning Deals all year long. While these limited-time deals eventually get offered to everyone, Prime members get access 30 minutes before the general public.

Enjoy Amazon Free Shipping

Shipping is really where you get your bread buttered as a Prime member. Between savings and fast, no-cost shipping, a membership pays for itself pretty quickly. Here's a look at the shipping perks:

—FREE Two-Day Delivery: Free for Prime members on millions of Amazon items.

—FREE One-Day Delivery: Available on over 15 million items with no minimum purchase for Prime members.

—FREE Same-Day Delivery: Available for more than 3 million items in select areas for Prime members. Some items are at your doorstep in as little as five hours.

We checked the math. Amazon shares that Prime members in the United States saved more than $500 on average last year. For those keeping count, that's nearly four times the cost of an annual membership.

Save Big on Groceries

Prime members pay less for high-quality ingredients and organic favorites because they save on groceries from Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market. At Amazon Fresh, Prime members save up to 50% on groceries and 10% on Our Brands while accessing hundreds of additional Prime Exclusive deals. At Whole Foods Market, Prime members are privy to day-specific sales each week. They also get an extra 10% off sale items. Perks apply whether you're in-store shopping or picking up. Same-day delivery applies to a wide range of groceries and household essentials.

Enjoy a Free Grubhub+ Membership

Takeout and delivery just got a lot cheaper. Prime membership tacks on free Grubhub+. For those keeping count, it's a $120 annual value. Prime members also get exclusive perks, including $0 delivery fees on eligible Grubhub orders, lower service fees, 5% credit back on pickup orders, and much more.

Save 10 Cents per Gallon on Gas

As you load up on beauty savings, you'll also fuel up on gas for less because Prime members can save $0.10 per gallon at approximately 7,000 BP, Amoco, and ampm gas stations across the United States.

Save on Medical Care and Prescriptions

Most of us are just catching up to the fact that Amazon offers medical and prescription benefits for Prime members. Here are the highlights:

—RxPass: As a Prime member, you can get all eligible medications for just $5 a month, and the number of prescriptions you can get is unlimited.

—One Medical: For $9 per month ($6 for each additional family member, up to six people), get an on-call care team for everyday health concerns and questions.

—Prescription Delivery and Savings: Amazon Pharmacy offers fast, FREE two-day shipping on prescriptions. Members who pay without insurance can also save extra money.

—Save on Prescriptions: Amazon lets you compare and save up to 80% at Amazon Pharmacy and over 60,000 other pharmacies.

Unlock a World of Streaming and Digital Perks

With so many of the most binge-worthy shows released on Amazon lately, Prime is worth the streaming alone. Prime members can access Prime Video, Amazon Music, Prime Gaming, and Amazon Photos. Prime members can watch the latest releases from Amazon's exclusive series to comedy specials without spending an extra penny.

Get Your Hands on Tons of eBooks, Audiobooks, and Magazines

A Prime subscription is also essentially a subscription to the world's biggest virtual library. Members can read as much as they want from a rotating selection of thousands of eBooks, popular magazines, comics, and audiobooks. Get your earbuds ready!

Does all of this sound good to you? It gets better! You can try out Amazon Prime for free for 30 days. At the end of the trial period, your membership will renew at $14.99 per month, or you can pay the annual fee of just $139. If you are between 18 and 24, you get a six-month free trial, and thereafter, you will only have to pay $7.49 each month (or $69 for an annual membership). Eligible shoppers on government assistance programs, such as Medicaid, can get Amazon Prime for only $6.99 per month.

This might be our favorite part of saving big on Amazon. We don't finish our morning coffee without checking out the Today's Deals section on Amazon. A Deal of the Day is a one-day-only discounted product that will last for either a set span of time or until inventory runs out.

The trick is to cut through items you don't want by filtering by department, brand, reviews, price, and discount amount. There's also a way to unlock a "secret" Amazon coupon code through Deal of the Day. Simply select the "coupon" tab that shows up once you're on the "Deals" page. From there, click the deal you want in order to clip it. The discount will show up when you check out.

Amazon Prime is the fast track to free shipping and discounts on thousands of eligible products. You can also save 15% and get free shipping when you set up auto-delivery subscriptions. The subscription option is a lifesaver for keeping everyday items stocked. We can't live without popular subscriptions, including Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser, Pure Life Purified Water Bottles, and Nectar Hydration Packets.

With discounts changing daily on Amazon, it can be hard to keep savings opportunities straight. Let's discuss the biggest of the big sales.

Amazon Prime Big Spring Sale

Often overshadowed by Prime Day, the Amazon Prime Big Spring Sale isn't one to sleep on. Taking place in late March, this week-long event offers opportunities to find huge seasonal discounts on home goods, fashion, and outdoor essentials in preparation for summer. While this sale has already happened for 2025, it's a good one to bookmark for next year as you look forward to what's in store for the rest of this year.

Amazon Prime Day

It's the one we wait for all year long. Prime Day has traditionally been held across two days in July. For example, 2024's Prime Day stretched across Tuesday, July 16, and Wednesday, July 17. Only Prime members can participate. Huge savings cover beauty, tech, home, fashion, and all major categories.

Some of the deals from last year's Prime Day that got our brand-conscious antenna up included:

—Up to 30% off beauty products from Clinique, Bumble and Bumble, Clarins, Urban Decay, and more.

—Up to 40% off select styles from footwear brands like Rothy’s and New Balance.

—Up to 50% off on home appliances from brands like Dyson.

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days

This two-day event takes place in October exclusively for Prime members. Like the original Prime Day event, it offers extraordinary deals and discounts on various products covering many categories. We love it for getting our gift lists done ahead of the holidays.

Amazon Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sale

This cheer-filled event occurs during the week leading up to Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) each year. With deals across a range of departments, it doesn't disappoint for anyone ready to snag amazing end-of-year deals on electronics, home, beauty, fashion, and more. Fast on the heels of Black Friday, Amazon's Cyber Monday sale is the event for great deals on electronics, software, and digital subscriptions.
