Amazon slashes prices with launch of new ‘Haul’ shopping section – and customers will now score deals as low as $1
AMAZON fans can get their hands on a whole host of bargains, as the ecommerce site launches its new Haul section.
Amazon Haul will feature a wide range of products priced under $20, with many products priced under $10.
It is now rolling out in Beta, and will be available to US customers when they next update their Amazon shopping app.
Shoppers will be able to purchase affordable fashion, homeware, electronics and more on the new site, with delivery times of between one and two weeks.
Dharmesh Mehta, vice president of Worldwide Selling Partner Services at Amazon said: “Finding great products at very low prices is important to customers, and we continue to explore ways that we can work with our selling partners so they can offer products at ultra-low prices.
“Amazon Haul aims to help make shopping for fashion, home, lifestyle, electronics, and other products even more fun, easy, and affordable, all backed by Amazon’s A-to-z product guarantee so customers can shop with confidence that the products they’re purchasing are safe, authentic, and in the condition expected.

“It’s early days for this experience, and we’ll continue to listen to customers as we refine and expand it in the weeks and months to come.”
When shoppers are using Amazon Haul, they will have a separate search, cart and checkout, meaning that you can build up a selection of budget buys.
Prices start at just $1 and shoppers can get 5% off orders $50 and over, and 10% off orders $75 or more.
To find Amazon Haul, simply search for ‘Haul’ in the Amazon search bar, or visit www.amazon.com/haul.
Some of the amazing bargains on offer include a three-piece trimmer for $2.99; an array of colorful table runners to help decorate for the holidays for $2.99 and an iPhone 16 case for $1.79.
Shoppers can also get their hands on a pair of touchscreen winter gloves for $3.21, an elegant necklace, bracelet, and earring set for $2.99, and a two-pack of kitchen tongs for grilling for $4.99.
Amazon’s $160 ‘powerful’ home essential has shoppers in chokehold – it’s nearly identical to Dyson but over 70% cheaper
Orders over $25 qualify for free delivery, whilst orders under $25 will be charged a $3.99 delivery fee.
And if you aren’t happy with your items you can return them for free within 15 days of delivery.
Amazon said: “While Amazon continues to offer over 300 million items with fast, free delivery for Prime members, including millions of products with Same-Day Delivery and tens of millions of products with One-Day Delivery, we also hear from customers that sometimes they would love to shop ultra-low-priced products even if some of them take one to two weeks to arrive.
“We are just getting started with Amazon Haul and look forward to hearing from customers as we continue to innovate on and further improve the shopping experience.”
Prime time! Don’t miss out on perks
Don’t squander those prime-ium benefits, says Sean Keach, The Sun’s Head of Technology and Science…
If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you’re probably paying $14.99 or £8.99 every single month.
And if you’re only using it for faster deliveries, you’re ignoring loads of money-saving perks.
You’re already paying for Prime, so you might as well get your money’s worth.
First off, you can try Amazon Photos, which is extremely handy if you’re a serial snapper.
It gives you access to unlimited full-resolution photo storage, as well as 5GB for videos.
Second is Prime Reading, which serves up “a rotating collection of over 3,000 digital books, audiobooks, magazines, comics, and more”.
It’s perfect for bookworms, and is totally free with your regular Prime membership.
It’s great to pair with another perk called Amazon First Reads.
This gives you early access to a brand new book for free every single month.
Third is one for gamers, and is aptly named Prime Gaming.
You’ll get free games and in-game content every month on a rotating basis.
And if you’re a fan of Twitch, you’ll even be given a free channel subscription to use each month.
On top of that, you’ll be able to play some free games using Amazon’s Luna cloud-gaming service.
Audiophiles will want to check out Amazon Music, which gets you ad-free listening to over 100 million songs, along with thousands of playlists and popular podcasts.
And here’s a bonus one if you’re in the US: free Grubhub+.
It’s one of the best perks because it gets you a year subscription that would normally cost $9.99 a month.
You’ll get unlimited $0 delivery fees on any order over $12 with your membership, but it’ll terminate if you cancel Prime.
