Save On Movies & TV, Get $10 For Watching: Here Are Today's Pre-Prime Day Deals

Watching TV is kind of like eating or sleeping — it's something you do, but you can't expect to get paid for it. Then again, if someone wanted to throw you a few bucks back for watching a movie, you'd be crazy to say no...

Amazon gets it: You should be rewarded for watching "The Notebook" or streaming "Star Trek." That's why for a limited time as part of its pre-Prime Day deals, you'll get a $10 credit to shop at Amazon.com the first time you stream Prime Video on your TV.

Right now, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial of Prime Video, where you'll find thousands of movies, TV shows and award-winning original series. With that $10 credit in play, Amazon is practically paying you to get hooked. (Terms and conditions apply.)

Today, Prime members can also take advantage of some serious savings, like $4.99 movie purchases and 99 cent rentals. So go ahead: Sign up for a free Prime Video trial, cash in on that $10 credit for your popcorn fund and take a look at some of the entertainment deals available now.
