We’re on day 2 of Prime Day and the deals are still rolling in! We're talking HUGE price drops on zillions of products. After surges in demand throughout the pandemic, retailers have been left with massive amounts of overstock — which means even deeper discounts for you at Amazon's two-day shopping event. “Even retailers notorious for never doing big sales are offering discounts because they have so much inventory that they need to clear out,” Rakuten’s Retail & Shopping Expert, Kristen Gall, tells Yahoo Life. “So it’s a consumer’s market this year.”
