Prime Day in October: Amazon officials announce return of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days

Prime Day in October: Amazon officials announce return of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days
The countdown to the holidays is on, and between the gifts, the gatherings, and travel, each person's expected to spend $1,552. That's according to *** survey from PWC. That sounds steep, but it's 5% less than last year, driven largely by cost conscious Gen Zers looking to cut back on spending. Bottom line, if you can, start budgeting now. Set up *** holiday fund and automate your savings, even if it's only $25 to $50 *** week. That'll add up to *** $100 by November. For another budget boost, turn clutter into cash by selling clothes, electronics, or kids' toys. Once you've done all that, make your budget and stick to it. Write down every expense, gifts, food, travel, even wrapping paper. Start your shopping early and spread it out. Many retailers start rolling out holiday sales as early as October, allowing for more wiggle room in your budget. Start there and then take advantage of sales events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. For additional savings, join store loyalty programs, sign up for newsletters and deal alerts, and make sure to check your credit card for cashback offers. Reporting in Washington, I'm Amy Lowe.
