Some of the best savings during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale come from its ‘Get 3 for the Price of 2’ promotion on a whole bunch of physical media. Books, Blu-rays, and something I’m particularly excited about, vinyls, are all a part of this deal. Which means you’ll essentially get one item completely free when you buy two. Everyone from The Beatles to Beyoncé has albums included in this deal. You’ll even find some awesome soundtracks. There are literally pages and pages of records to choose from, so chances are good you’ll find at least a few that make the perfect addition to your collection.
Amazon's '3 for 2' Vinyl Sale
To score this buy 2, get 1 free deal, all you need to do is add three qualifying vinyls to your cart. At checkout, the lowest-priced item will be discounted. It’s a good idea to buy three similarly priced albums to make the most of the savings. While it shouldn’t be difficult, if you can’t find three vinyls, you can mix and match this deal with eligible books, Blu-rays, comics, and more. Below, I’ve highlighted a few of my favorite albums from the ‘3 for 2’ sale, but I’d recommend scrolling through it yourself here.
My Favorite Buy 2, Get 1 Free Vinyl
Just about every music genre is covered in this buy two, get one deal. I’m particularly excited to see tons of newer artists included. Olivia Dean, who is fresh off her Best New Artist win at the Grammys, has her album The Art of Loving on there, while Noah Kahan’s Stick Season Double LP is available, ahead of his new album release next month.
As for classics, you can’t go wrong with the Jimi Hendrix Experience’s Are You Experienced?, or Miles Davis’ iconic Kind of Blue album. Both are on constant rotation in my home. Billy Joel’s The Stranger is an absolute no-skip option, and I’d be remiss not to mention Jeff Buckley’s hauntingly beautiful Grace. And if you’re still reeling from the loss of Grateful Dead founding member Bob Weir, American Beauty from the band is part of the deal. It might not be a live show recording, but it’s still great.
While the music itself is always the most important, sometimes a cool colored vinyl or cover art is a nice perk. Special editions of Gracie Abrams’ The Story of Us and Parachutes from Coldplay have some funky wax to spin. I’m also impartial to Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy and Pearl Jam’s Ten cover, as there is some fun history behind them.
'3 for 2' Soundtracks
Tons of soundtracks are also a part of this ‘3 for 2’ vinyl deal. Broadway fans who don’t already have the ridiculously brilliant Hamilton soundtrack will want to pick it up. Then there's the green vinyl for Minecraft, and of course, all the ‘80s tunes from the Stranger Things 5 album are impossible not to love.
Buy 2, Get 1 Free 4K UHD and Blu-ray
After you’ve picked out a few new vinyls to add to the stack, be sure to check out some of the buy two, get one free 4K UHD and Blu-rays that are part of the deal.
