Amazon Haul Early Haul-iday Sale 2026: Dates, 11-Cent Deals and the Fine Print
Amazon Haul's early Haul-iday sale runs Nov 9-14, 2026 with $0.11 deals on Nov 10-11. Dates, how to find deals, the $25 delivery rule and 15-day returns.
Amazon Haul's "early Haul-iday" sale runs from November 9 to November 14, 2026, with $1 flash deals all week and special $0.11 deals on November 10 and 11 only. You'll find it in the Amazon Shopping app (search "Haul") or at amazon.com/haul. Before you load up a cart of 11-cent items, check two things: the $25 free-delivery threshold and the 15-day return window, because both work differently from regular Amazon orders.
Amazon announced the event on November 9 and calls it the first of several Haul deal events planned through November and December. Here are the dates, how the 11-cent deals work, what the fine print says, and how to tell whether a Haul cart is actually a bargain.
When is the Amazon Haul early Haul-iday sale?
According to Amazon's announcement, the event runs November 9–14, 2026:
| Date (2026) | What's on, per Amazon |
|---|---|
| Mon, Nov 9 | Sale starts. $1 flash deals "dropping throughout the week" |
| Tue, Nov 10 | $0.11 deals ("exclusive hidden treasures across popular categories") plus $1 flash deals |
| Wed, Nov 11 | $0.11 deals continue, plus $1 flash deals |
| Thu, Nov 12 – Sat, Nov 14 | $1 flash deals continue. Amazon says some flash-sale items "drop to a penny" |
| Rest of Nov & Dec | More Haul deal drops with "daily and weekly refreshes" (stocking stuffers, holiday decor, seasonal apparel, white elephant gifts, beauty) |
| Fri, Nov 27 | Black Friday (Amazon's main sale is separate; see our Black Friday 2026 dates guide) |
Amazon hasn't published start or end times or a time zone for the Haul event. It also says "all deals and availability are subject to change." Flash deals by definition run in limited quantities, so a listing you see in the morning may be gone by lunch.
The event appears to be US-only. The announcement mentions amazon.com/haul, US dollar prices and US return drop-off locations. Haul also runs in other countries (more on that below), but Amazon hasn't announced an early Haul-iday event for them in this post.
What is Amazon Haul?
Amazon Haul is a low-price storefront inside the main Amazon Shopping app. Amazon pitches it as a place for very cheap fashion, home, beauty, toys and small electronics. In Amazon's original Haul explainer (first published in November 2024 and last updated in November 2025), "all items are priced $20 or less," with most at $10 or less.
The new announcement adds some numbers:
- More than 10 million products, with selection up more than 25 times in two years
- More than a million items under $5 and more than half a million under $3
- The number of customers buying on Haul grew nearly 350% year over year
Amazon doesn't give a base number for that 350% figure, so it tells you about growth, not size.
David Forsythe, Amazon's vice president of North America Seller Business, is quoted in the announcement: "We've always focused on offering customers the lowest prices across the widest selection."
How do the Amazon Haul $0.11 deals work?
Amazon describes the 11-cent items only as "exclusive hidden treasures across popular categories," available on November 10 and 11. It doesn't list which products will hit $0.11, how many units there are, or whether there's a per-customer limit.
During Haul's 1-cent flash deals in November 2025, a Slickdeals post reported a limit of three penny items per customer. Amazon hasn't said whether any limit applies to the 2026 11-cent deals, so expect one but treat it as unconfirmed.
How to find them, step by step:
- Open the Amazon Shopping app (or go to amazon.com/haul in a browser).
- Search "Haul", or open the main menu and choose Haul. Amazon gives both routes.
- Look for the event banner or deal section on the Haul home page. Amazon hasn't said exactly where the $0.11 items will sit.
- Add items to your cart quickly. Flash deals can sell out, and an item in your cart isn't reserved.
- Before you check out, look at the cart total. If it's under $25, you'll pay a delivery fee (see below), which can wipe out the saving on an 11-cent item.
How much is Amazon Haul shipping? The $25 rule
This is the part most people miss. Haul has its own delivery rules, separate from Prime:
| Haul cart total (US) | What happens |
|---|---|
| Under $25 | $3.99 delivery fee, per Amazon's Haul explainer (last updated Nov 2025) |
| $25 or more | Free delivery (restated in the Nov 9, 2026 announcement) |
| Over $50 | 5% off the order |
| Over $75 | 10% off the order |
The November 2026 announcement repeats the free delivery at $25 and the 5% and 10% tiers. It doesn't restate the $3.99 fee. That figure comes from Amazon's Haul explainer, so check your cart in the app before you pay.
Prime doesn't change this. Amazon's explainer describes the $25 threshold for all Haul customers, and Haul orders are separate from Prime's fast delivery. The same explainer says delivery typically takes one to two weeks. If you're buying gifts, keep that in mind for December.
Quick maths: three 11-cent items on their own add up to $0.33, plus $3.99 delivery, so $4.32. That's still cheap if you want them, but the saving only really works if you're already building a $25+ Haul cart.
What is the Amazon Haul return policy?
Per Amazon's November 9 announcement:
- Free returns on eligible purchases over $3, requested within 15 days of delivery. That's half Amazon's usual 30-day window.
- Drop-off at more than 10,000 US locations, including Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market, UPS, Kohl's and Staples.
- Everything is covered by Amazon's A-to-z Guarantee.
Items costing $3 or less (which includes every 11-cent deal) aren't returnable. Amazon's standard return policy lists Haul items at $3 or under as final sale, as we covered in our Amazon holiday return policy explainer. That explainer also lists Haul items over $3 as having a 15-day window. Amazon's extended holiday return window (to January 31, 2027) is described for regular Amazon orders. We couldn't find Amazon confirming that it lengthens Haul's 15-day window, so don't count on it.
Is Amazon Haul worth it? A quick decision checklist
Haul isn't a scam. It's Amazon's own storefront, with A-to-z Guarantee coverage. It's a different deal from regular Amazon, though, so use this checklist before you check out:
| Question | If yes | If no |
|---|---|---|
| Will your Haul cart reach $25? | Delivery is free, so penny and 11-cent items are pure extras | Add the $3.99 fee to every "cheap" item |
| Do you need it within a week? | Buy from regular Amazon/Prime instead | Haul's 1–2 week delivery is fine |
| Is the item $3 or less? | Treat it as final sale and accept you can't return it | You get 15 days to return it |
| Is it a gift for a specific date? | Order early this month. Haul's late-December delivery is a risk | No problem |
| Is it something where quality really matters (chargers, kids' items, skincare)? | Read the reviews closely, or buy a known brand on regular Amazon | Fine for novelties, decor, stocking stuffers |
| Are you comparing with Temu or Shein? | Haul's pitch is Amazon checkout, A-to-z cover and local drop-off returns | — |
Editor's take: The 11-cent days are a clever hook. For most people, the real value is the $25 free-delivery line and the 5%/10% discount tiers, so stocking stuffers and white elephant gifts are where Haul makes the most sense. The two traps are the 15-day returns (and no returns on items $3 or under) and the one-to-two-week delivery. If you'd be annoyed to receive it after December 20, buy it now or buy it from regular Amazon. Haul's numbers are big (10 million products, near-350% customer growth), but they're Amazon's own and come without base figures, so read them as a growth story rather than a market share claim.
Is Amazon Haul available outside the US?
Yes, but not with this event. In a November 2025 post, Amazon UK said Haul serves the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Japan and Australia. It said the low-cost store also runs as Amazon Bazaar in Mexico, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and as a standalone Bazaar app in markets including Hong Kong, the Philippines, Taiwan and Nigeria. Amazon put the total at 25 countries.
Rules differ by country. In that UK post, Haul items were priced at £20 or less, with free delivery from £15, 5% off orders of £30 or more, 10% off at £50, and free returns within 15 days. Last year the UK ran a £1 deals event on 10–11 November. We haven't found an Amazon announcement of a 2026 UK equivalent yet.
What are shoppers saying?
We didn't find a substantial Reddit or forum discussion of the 2026 early Haul-iday event at the time of writing. It only went live on November 9. Earlier Haul penny deals did get attention on deal forums. On a November 2025 Slickdeals thread about Haul's 1-cent flash deals, the original poster noted the $3.99 fee on orders under $25 "even for Prime members" and a three-item limit. One commenter, 10grams, complained about how the deals feed works: "Once you reach a certain point when you're scrolling, the SAME items continue to reappear over and over again with no end." (Slickdeals)
Questions readers keep asking about Haul:
- Do I need Prime to shop Haul? (Amazon's materials don't list Prime as a requirement.)
- Why is my Haul delivery date two weeks away?
- Can I return 11-cent or $1 items? ($3-or-under items: no.)
- Do Haul items count toward Black Friday deals? (They're separate events.)
