Holiday beauty event returns to Amazon
Amazon has biggest October sale ever
The Holiday Beauty Haul comes on the heels of Prime Big Deal Days (Oct. 8-9), which according to Amazon was its biggest October shopping event ever with more Prime members shopping than the 2023 edition with higher sales and more items sold during the two-day event than any previous October shopping event.
In an email to Chain Store Age, an Amazon representative said independent sellers on its platform, most of which are small-to-medium-sized businesses, saw record sales compared to the 2023 event.
Globally, Amazon says Prime members saved more than $1 billion across millions of deals, including on seasonal merchandise and gifts.
"Our 2024 Prime Big Deal Days event marked a strong start to the holiday shopping season, with record-breaking sales and participation from Prime members worldwide," said Doug Herrington, CEO of worldwide Amazon stores. "This is just the start of great deals from Amazon over the holiday shopping season, paired with fast, free delivery for Prime members to help them check items off their gift lists."
