Prime Day 2022 is now underway. The 48-hour deals bonanza is ringing in discounts on everything from Echo speakers to household appliances. This Prime Day, Amazon is offering up to $260 in free credits. 

Although there are less opportunities to earn credits this year versus last year, these promos are a no-brainer for anyone who plans to buy something during the remaining hours of Prime Day. Keep in mind you must be a Prime member to get these credits. (If you're not a Prime member, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial or free 6-month trial if you're a student). Additionally, some of these credits can be used during Prime Day only, whereas others can be used anytime.
