The winners will be announced via a post on the Hip2Save website and will be identified via their email address. So stick by your phone and check the site to see if you won. If chosen, you must claim your prize within one hour of Hip2Save’s post going live. (But, don’t worry: Only a partial amount of your email address will be posted, so your privacy will be protected.)

But even if you aren’t selected, you can still make the most of Black Friday Prime Deals thanks to a promotion with Amazon’s Store Card. Those who apply and qualify for the card can get a $100 Amazon gift card. Plus, Prime members who sign up for a Prime Visa will get a $200 Amazon gift card.
Another shopping tip? Remember to check Amazon frequently. New Black Friday deals will continue to be added throughout the week and into Cyber Monday. Prime members can also sign up to receive notifications about Invite-Only deals. These deals will give you inside access to items that are the highest on your Christmas wish list including jewelry, electronics and more. You can find all of Amazon’s deals on the Black Friday storefront, and when you find the product you are interested in, sign up to get insider access when the deal drops.
If you haven’t signed up for a Prime membership yet, this is a good time to give it a try. Amazon is offering a deal that lets you try Prime for a week for just $1.99 right now. After that, it’s $14.99 a month.
Whether you win a gift card from Hip2Save’s Black Friday giveaway or snag an invite-only deal with your Prime membership, there’s more than a few ways to save money during this post-Turkey Day event.
