    30 items you must grab from the Amazon Prime Day deals

    Life

    Amazon Prime Day: The Hunger Games of online Shopping (but with way more PJs).
    Ah, Prime Day. That glorious 48 hours where Amazon transforms into a digital feeding frenzy, luring us in with deals so good they should be illegal (and probably are somewhere in Switzerland). But before you lose yourself in a click-happy trance, hold onto your metaphorical shopping cart handles, because navigating Prime Day requires cunning, strategy, and the unwavering resolve to not accidentally purchase a life-sized inflatable unicorn pool float (although, let’s be honest, that would be pretty epic for your next Zoom meeting).
    Here’s how to approach Prime Day like a seasoned champion, not a sugar-crazed toddler at a candy store:
    The Pre-Prime Prep: You wouldn’t walk into a battlefield unarmed, would you? (Unless your weapon of choice is killer negotiation skills at a flea market, then more power to you.) In the days leading up to Prime Day, make a list of your actual needs and wants. Is your coffee maker weeping burnt tears? New headphones a must for that daily commute through a jungle of honking taxis? Prioritize.
    Befriend the Wishlist: Amazon’s Wishlist is your secret weapon. Add potential purchases there beforehand, allowing you to compare prices with a cool head before the Prime Day storm hits.
    Channel Your Inner Sherlock: Don’t be fooled by the flashing “discount” signs. Some deals might seem amazing, but were they mysteriously marked up just before Prime Day? Use price trackers to see a product’s price history and sniff out genuine steals.
    The Thrill of the Hunt: Let’s face it, part of the Prime Day fun is the thrill of the hunt. Embrace the chaos! Set timers for limited-time deals and challenge yourself to find the most ridiculously awesome (and actually useful) item. A self-stirring mug shaped like a baby Yoda? Sold!
    The Power of “No”: Just because something is on sale doesn’t mean you need it. Remember that list you made? Stick to it. Your future self, drowning in impulse-bought chia seed dispensers, will thank you.
    Remember, Prime Day is a marathon, not a sprint. Pace yourself, strategize, and most importantly, have fun! And hey, if you do end up with that inflatable unicorn pool float, send me pics.
    List of everyday things to pick from the Amazon Prime Day deals:

    After the monumental precedent set by July in terms of pop culture content, it’s time for the shows and movies in August to live up to the benchmark.
    The UAE heat in August will be at an all-time high, so why not just stay in and binge-watch some quality shows and movies? This month is all about exciting action-thriller movies, dramatic TV shows and series that will keep you hooked once you begin.
    For starters, season 2 of Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti’s show Made In Heaven is finally set to release. Back in 2019, this show became an instant sensation because of its unfiltered take on Big Indian weddings. Besides this, Selena Gomez, Martin Short and Steve Martin are back with the third season of Only Murders In The Building – this time, with Meryl Streep and Paul Rudd *screams internally*
    If this wasn’t enough to convince you to stay indoors and hibernate with your favourite snacks, Bollywood starlet Alia Bhatt is about to make her Hollywood debut this August. Fresh off the heels of the success of her recent film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, Alia is ready to play the ultimate antagonist opposite Gal Gadot and Jamie Dorman in Netfix’s Heart Of Stone.
    So, kick off your shoes, get in your comfortable PJs and let the binge-watch marathon begin. Scroll below and swipe right for EW’s OTT content recommendation for the scorching month of August.
