Support These Black-Owned Small Businesses, Get $10 For Prime Day

Do you like shopping small? We do too. When it comes to supporting small business owners, we know that not only are we helping a person grow their business, but we’re helping local families and members of our communities continue to do what they love doing. 

As a part of the pre-Prime Day celebrations, Amazon is shining a spotlight on many of the black creators and sellers with a Support Small storefront. 

As a bonus for all of you Prime Members, if you spend $10 on qualified products through Amazon Storefronts, like the Support Small store, between June 7 and 20th, 2021, they’ll give you a $10 credit to spend on Prime Day. And let’s be honest, we all love having an extra credit for something as big as Prime Day. Of course, this exclusive offer is only for Prime Members, and at the time of publication, all the items on this list were included in this offer, but that this subject to change.  Please double-check with Amazon and take a peek at the restrictions and terms HERE. 

And because we want to help you all support the local black creators and small businesses, we’ve put together our Must Haves from black-owned small businesses featured on Amazon.
