Amazon’s 20th holiday season also featured lower prices, called Lightning Deals, on over 25,000 products.
“We are excited to welcome more than 10 million new members to Amazon Prime this holiday season, who benefited from unlimited Free Two-Day Shipping on their holiday gifts…” said Amazon.com Founder and CEO Jeff Bezos in a company press release. “We are working hard to make Prime even better and expanding the recently launched Prime Now to additional cities in 2015.”
