Buying and selling things online, also known as E-Commerce, has become a popular mode of shopping for many people, especially now that we are on the digital age. 

​How Canadians Can  Find Deals Online (Using Amazon Canada)
​
Amazon in Canada has become a key player for making e-commerce that popular and therefore it is just smart to look into how you could benefit as a Canadian consumer, given Amazon’s success.

Amazon’s e-commerce has only grown stronger each year with its enormous offerings, and a wide selection of items with attractive and competitive prices.

Of course, one must note that this Amazon pricing is due to a number of factors, taking into consideration third-party supplier pricing, customer information and behaviour profile, and the economic factor – supply and demand.

​​Whatever items you might be planning to purchase, you might want to consider first if you could find better deals prior to finalizing your purchase.

Finding better deals online would require some extra time on your part to go over some offers and whether these offers are appropriate to what you are really looking for. You will have to be flexible and resourceful.

​Read some reviews from reliable, authority sites if possible. In other words, you have to do your ‘due diligence’.
​
If you can't find product reviews on Amazon Canada, other Amazon sites such as Amazon.com (or other international sites, such as U.K. Amazon, France, Italy, etc.) might have have some available reviews that you could refer to for general overview of what others are saying about their product purchase. Although, you have to remember that several factors may vary (pricing, shipping, and other costs, etc.) depending on the country.

​Now, when you do searches, consider the fact that not all items you would see in Amazon are cheap prices.

​Sometimes, you could find best offerings on the source itself. 

And that means know the originator or the manufacturer and find time to visit their websites.
​
You could even find some bargains in other marketplace sites such as Ebay and companies that buy overstock items. Also, doing some Google searches with keywords on items you intend to buy, you will notice that there could be tons of results that would show up.

​Looking up products on Amazon, you will be overwhelmed with tons of options. You will see product specifications or description, various brands, and customers’ reviews (especially on items that are really popular), discounts available and price range.

Once you are on Amazon site, such as Amazon Canada, you will find their basic search feature with filter options.
 
For example, when you go through the menu ‘Shop by Department’, you will find ‘Amazon Prime’ at the very top that lets you navigate all the benefits that come with Prime membership, such as FREE delivery options, Prime students and more.

Then, Amazon video and music would come next.

​These features would let you see what sort of titles, new videos you could watch or music to explore.

​Below Amazon video and music menu, you will see Amazon’s ‘Savings Programs’.

​These Savings Programs feature Baby Registry, Amazon Coupons, and Amazon Warehouse Deals (Deep Discounts on Used & Open-Box Products).

You will see items such as computers and accessories,  TV and Videos (Home Theatre Systems), Cameras and accessories, various tools in Home Improvement (Kitchen, Bath, Lighting, Fans and more) and even Baby Products (strollers, car seats and baby monitors).

Of course, there are also items pertaining to Kitchen and Dining (cookware, coffee machines, bakeware and blender), and Household supplies (cleaning, storage and organization).

With such an enormous list of items available and discounts you could enjoy, it makes sense if you have an account with Amazon so you could easily monitor products and bargains that could appeal to you. Once you are subscribed with Amazon, you’ll be able to save items, go through available deals and more. Also, there is this feature they call ‘Wish List’ that lets you add items you see from other sites.

Apart from the ‘Amazon Warehouse Deals’ page, you will also see more options to browse, such as ‘Today’s Deals, ‘Outlet Deals’, Coupons and eBook Deals. They also have ‘Watched Deals’ feature in which you could save ‘deals you’ve been watching’.

And what’s more? Well, you could watch out for Amazon’s upcoming ‘Lightning Deals’ and see which sort of bargain deals would make up your next buying list. You could also opt in to receiving ‘Daily Deals of the Day’ from Amazon Gold Box.

You could learn more about finding deals by visiting Amazon website.
