While there will still be many deals that come with no strings attached, the vast majority will have the Prime stamp.Amazon's Prime Day is, to an extent, a great way for Amazon to make its Prime subscription service even more enticing.

I rely on a free tool called CamelCamelCamel (yes, that's really the name). It tracks Amazon price history, so you can tell if that "deal" is actually the real thing. Just make an account, copy the ASIN number from the product page (it starts with "B"), and you'll get a graph showing how the price has gone up or down. It's a super easy way to see if you're getting the lowest price.
