Now's The Time To Sign Up For Prime

You better watch out, and you better not cry — but not because Santa Claus is coming to town. We're telling you that now is the time to sign up for Amazon Prime. If you don't, you're gonna miss out on some of the biggest and best savings of the entire holiday season.

While non-Prime members will be pouting when their gifts arrive late this holiday season, Amazon Prime members will get fast, free shipping on more than 50 million eligible items. Better yet, on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Prime members will get exclusive access to select deals before everyone else. (Amazon is already counting down to Black Friday, and there's a whole section of early access deals exclusively for Prime members.)

Here are a few more of the perks of an Amazon Prime membership:

Prime Video: Get instant access to thousands of movies and TV shows at no additional cost. You can stream all your favorites on select Smart TVs, Roku, Xbox, Amazon Fire TV, iPhones, tablets and Android devices. You can also download entertainment to your device to watch offline anywhere, anytime.

Prime Music: With your Amazon Prime membership, you can stream more than two million songs at no additional cost. If you're looking to unlock even more great music, new subscribers can sign up for a 3-month trial of Amazon Music Unlimited for just $0.99. Terms and conditions apply.

Prime Reading: Prime members also get unlimited access to more than a thousand books, current issue magazines, Kindle Singles, comics and more. You can access them from any device — including your phone, tablet or kindle — and read however you want, whenever you want.

Twitch Prime: Good news for gamers! With Twitch Prime, Prime members get free monthly game content, plus access to exclusive discounts on new release and preorder boxed video games.

Prime Photos: You don't want those precious family memories lingering on your phone, and you definitely don't want them to vanish forever if you fail to properly back them up. Be smart now and save your photos in a safe, accessible spot through yet another Prime membership perk: Prime Photos. You'll get free unlimited photo storage, so you can save as many photos as you want and view them on your phone, computer or tablet.

For anyone who's playing Santa this season, an Amazon Prime membership is a gift you can't afford not to get for yourself. If you aren't already a Prime member, you can sign up now for a free 30-day trial. That gets you in all the Prime early deals, free shipping and perks just in time for the holidays. Terms and conditions apply.
