[ad_1]

Dorm shopping is expensive. Luckily, we’ve done the legwork for you and researched and selected the best Amazon Prime Day dorm deals, so you can save on the bedding, storage, study supplies, tech, and more that you need.

When Is Amazon Prime Day?

July 16-17

Do I Have to Be a Prime Day Member to Take Advantage of Prime Savings?

Yes! Before shopping, ensure you already have a Prime membership (which you can get a 30-day free trial of right now). Also, consider getting an Amazon Student Prime Membership for $69 a year with a free 6-month trial and other exclusive benefits and discounts.

If your teen has not already done so, it’s crucial that they look on their college’s website to see what is or is not permitted in their particular dorm room.
