Currently, Amazon has only announced that Prime Big Deal Days will happen sometime in October. The online retailer plans to release more information as the dates get closer.
You must be an Amazon Prime member to participate in this event. You can become a Prime member before Prime Big Deal Days begin. An Amazon Prime membership costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year if you pay annually.
If you are a student, there is a special rate of $7.49 per month or $69 per year if you pay annually. You must go to the official Amazon Prime Student website to enter your qualifications for this discounted rate.

We also saw discounts on Roombas, Beats headphones, Ninja appliances, and more.
