Amazon Prime Deal Feature

Amazon Prime is an excellent value for anyone who does any kind of shopping (which, of course, is just about everyone). Not only do you get free 2-day shipping on a myriad items, but you get nice perks such as Amazon Prime Video and Music and first dibs on a variety of special deals. Amazon raised the price of Prime membership to $99 a while back, but we submit that it’s still a good deal even so.

This weekend, though, you can grab an Amazon Prime membership for only $73, in celebration of Amazon’s recent success at the 73rd Golden Globe Awards. With a number of Amazon video properties winning prices, Amazon wants everyone to know just how successful they are in building out their media empire.

Here’s the gist:

Amazon today announced that in celebration of its two Golden Globe wins, it will make seasons one and two of the Amazon Original Series, Mozart in the Jungle available for free for everyone this weekend. Anyone can watch the first and second season of Mozart in the Jungle at no cost starting Friday, January 15, at 9:00 p.m. PT and concluding at 11:59 p.m. local time, Sunday, January 17, using the Amazon Video app for TVs, connected devices including Fire TV and mobile devices, or online at Amazon.com/mozartinthejungle. For a list of all Amazon Video compatible devices visit www.amazon.com/howtostream. Also starting Friday, January 15, at 9:00 p.m. PT and concluding at 11:59 p.m. local time, Sunday, January 17, and in celebration of Mozart in the Jungle’s multiple wins at the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards, Amazon Prime will be available for just $73. New members can sign-up for this limited-time Prime offer at www.amazon.com/MozartPrime.

Note, this deal is for new members only and it’s only good this weekend, so you won’t want to hesitate. If you’ve ever considered getting a Prime membership, however, now is as good a time as any to pull the trigger.
