While we're all excited for Amazon Prime Day on July 16 and 17, one of the most common frustrations is that the hottest deals often sell out in a matter of seconds, leaving shoppers empty-handed. However, there is one workaround — Amazon's invite-only deals, a system designed to increase your chances of securing those must-have items. 

To get these limited edition deals, you need to sign into your Prime account and request an invite to buy the item. Amazon will then send you a link to buy it when the deal goes live on Prime Day (July 16 and 17). It may sound tedious, but this is Amazon's way of ensuring something doesn't sell out seconds after going live. It's worth noting that requesting an invite doesn't ensure you'll get that deal — but it certainly boosts your chances. 

Currently, there are only a handful of invite-only deals. Our favorites include the high-quality Sony Wireless Headphones in a stylish cappuccino color, which are on sale for just $35. We're also loving the Foreo Luna 3 Bundle that includes a facial cleansing brush, a cleanser and a balm for only $103. Here's a look at the other invite-only Prime Day deals now available.
