Today I was on Good Morning America to talk about how Prime Day has changed -- and that includes retailers trying to get your attention with travel deals. Big box retailers have been hitting us with sales for weeks now, and consumers are getting more savvy on how to price compare. So how does Amazon shake things up? By offering discounts on car rentals cruise tickets. Some other retailers sell vacation packages now, too. But expect the game to keep changing to keep shoppers interested in this new summer shopping holiday: https://lnkd.in/eHxSyGYS

There's just not anything all that new or exciting either. It's all just boring now. You can also generally buy anything you want, already at a competitive price and get it quick. Even outside Amazon these days. Ho hum, I miss browsing in the old, traditional department stores. Now get off my lawn! Err, sorry... and we liked it that way!

Great to see you talent continue to be appreciated, Bridget. And I had no idea Amazon offered these discounts. I’ll keep my eyes open for them in the future.
