Attention Prime members: Stock up on essentials and save 15% on purchases over $50

SPEND $50+ AND SAVE 15%: Prime members who spend $50+ on eligible Amazon-brand items can save 15% during the Amazon stock up and save event.


For some of us, it’s super easy to stop by the store a couple of times a week. For others, it’s at least a half hour journey to the local store. In either case, it can be convenient to keep a stockpile of essential supplies around the house like toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and health-care items. If your pantry and supply closet is looking a little slim these days, check out this stock-up sale at Amazon.

As of Aug. 14, Prime members can save 15% on purchases of eligible Amazon-brand items when you spend $50 or more during the Amazon stock up and save event. The discount will automatically apply to your cart once you have $50+ worth of eligible items. The maximum total savings during this sale is $100.

The sale extends to hundreds of handy Amazon-brand items, including many in the mega-retailer’s Amazon Basics and Amazon Essentials product lineup. If you’re heading back to school yourself or getting ready to send the kids back, stock up on essential school supplies like a box of 30 Amazon Basics #2 pencils, which is currently on sale for just $1.99, or a set of Amazon Basics Premium Colored Pencils, which is also on sale for just $3.99.

The sale also includes plenty of household essentials that are always nice to have around, like cotton swabs and toothbrushes.

You can also find plenty of great pet supplies that are both on sale and eligible for the discount, like the Amazon Basics Dog and Puppy Pee Pads, Amazon Basics Flea and Tick Topical Treatment for Cats, and Amazon Brand Wag Dental Chews for dogs.

Keep in mind that to score the 15% discount during the stock up and save event, you’ll need to be signed up and logged into your Amazon Prime membership. If you’re not a Prime member already, a monthly membership costs $14.99 per month, or you can snag an annual plan for $139.

If you’re in the midst of back-to-school season, check out the great savings available during the Amazon stock up and save event. You’ll save 15% on items that are likely already on your weekly shopping list.
