Amazon to celebrate 20th birthday with Prime Day sale

From CNET: For Amazon Prime members, Christmas is coming early this year.

To celebrate Amazon's 20th birthday next week, the e-commerce giant is introducing Prime Day, offering up what it claims will include "more deals than Black Friday." The summer sale will be held Wednesday, July 15 -- the day before Amazon.com first launched two decades prior -- with special deals rolling out as often as every 10 minutes throughout the day.

These deals, though, will only be available for new and existing Prime members -- folks who pay an annual fee for free two-day shipping, a streaming-video library and other benefits -- who live in the US, UK, Spain, Japan, Italy, Germany, France, Canada and Austria.

An Amazon spokeswoman said the company doesn't have any future plans to share on whether Prime Day could become an annual event.
