Score deals on everything from home goods to clothing to electronics.
Do you pride yourself on scoring fabulous deals? Then you probably already love Amazon, the mega-retailer that has an offering for every need, no matter how niche: You can search for basic — and chic — wardrobe staples that’ll never go out of style, as easily as you can find deals on luxury brands. (To say nothing of shopping for clock radios, specialty peanut butter, and everything else under the sun.) Even Katie gets in on the fun — some of her favorite products can be found on this vast site. And we should definitely mention that Prime members enjoy all of these convenient perks alongside two-day shipping, and accessibility to the treasure trove of media that is Prime Video.
But if you’re constantly in search of a sale, Amazon has another resource that fulfills the most profound of bargain-hunting needs. Welcome to a page that you may not’ve heard about: Amazon Outlet.
What is Amazon Outlet?
You might be familiar with Amazon Warehouse, the section of the site where you can find refurbished and open-box items. But if you’re overwhelmed by the retailer’s extensive offerings or squeamish about purchasing used goods (all it takes is one bad experience to ruin certain types of deal-hunting), Amazon Outlet is the perfect solution.
When Amazon buys too much of any particular item, those clearance steals end up in the outlet section. And while Amazon Warehouse admittedly promotes bigger discounts, the items in Amazon Outlet have been overstocked, not used. So you’re guaranteed a deal on a brand-new product.
How do I access Amazon’s secret outlet?
While you won’t be required to wake up at the crack of dawn to drive to an outlet mall and rifle through bins of clothing, Amazon Outlet does have some idiosyncrasies. For one, the outlet page is a bit of a secret: It’s difficult to naturally stumble upon from the main site.
But we’re here to demystify that. To shop Amazon Outlet, go to the Amazon homepage. In the upper left corner of your screen, click those three horizontal lines where you see the word “All.” Scroll down to the “Programs & Features” section and click on “See All” to expand that list. Simply scroll until you see “Amazon Outlet,” click, and start shopping.
What is sold at Amazon Outlet?
Amazon Outlet typically offers more out-of-season items and fewer big brand names like Apple. But you’ll still find great deals, and you’ll be able to nab those on-sale items while reclining on your couch in your robe, a steaming mug of coffee (or what have you) at your side.
To help get you started, we’ve listed some of our favorite deals on the site. Think electronics, clothing, household goods, and more. But just consider this a jumping-off point — you’ll still have loads more products to sift through.
