When is the best time to buy cleaning products on Amazon?

The best time to buy cleaning products and bulk buys is during Amazon Prime Day. This year the sales event from the retail giant was live from the 16th to the 17th of July 2024 at midnight.

During Amazon Prime Day, you can expect a host of cleaning brands with Amazon storefronts to slash their prices, including plenty of Ideal Home favourites, like Shark, Vax, Vileda, Kärcher, Dettol, and more.

The only stickler is that you have to be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of the discounts, but once you're signed up, you’ll have all of the discounted products at your fingertips.
