ENTER FOR A CHANCE TO WIN A $1,000 AMAZON GIFT CARD: Set up a deal alert with Alexa and you'll automatically be entered for a chance to win a $1,000 Amazon gift card. Set up the deal alert before 11:59 p.m. PT on June 18 for a chance at winning one of the 100 free gift cards.

Amazon has officially announced Prime Day 2026. This year, they're mixing it up and holding the mega shopping event at the end of June, instead of July. Deals span June 23 to 26 this year. But like always, Amazon is already dropping prices. If you like the idea of having an extra $1,000 to spend on Prime Day shopping this year, listen up.

Amazon is hosting the Alexa's Got You Sweepstakes until 11:59 p.m. PT on June 18 which offers the opportunity to win a $1,000 Amazon gift card. To enter, you'll need to set up a deal alert with Alexa by using the Alexa for Shopping function at Amazon. Here's how to enter.

If you're browsing Amazon on your computer, head to the "Alexa for Shopping" tab that's located under the Amazon Prime header in the upper left corner. From here, you'll need to ask Alexa to set up a deal alert for you on any product. Once Alexa confirms your deal alert, you're already automatically entered into the sweepstakes.

If you're browsing Amazon from the app, the "Alexa for Shopping" function is located on the lower right corner — it's the blue "a." Once in the menu, ask Alexa to set up your deal alert, and voila.

If you have Echo devices at home, you can ask Alexa+ to set your deal alert and that'll also submit your entry into the contest. If you're one of the lucky 100 winners, Amazon will alert you via email "on or about June 19, 2026," according to the fine print details of the sweepstakes. Keep in mind you don't need to purchase anything to enter, but you do need to be logged into your free Amazon account to be eligible.

Since Prime Day offers great savings, why not enter to win a $1,000 Amazon gift card to make the sale that much sweeter? Just remember to set your Alexa deal alert before the deadline on June 18.
