Amazon Prime Day continues Tuesday but it got off to a rough start.
Many people took to Facebook and Twitter to express their frustration. The sales were hyped up. There was even a promotion giving customers at Whole Foods a $10 Amazon credit if they spent at least ten dollars in store - only for people to be disappointed as the sales went live Monday at noon.
Instead of deals, Prime shoppers got dogs and error messages.
Joy Levy left a comment on our Facebook page saying: Yep. I'm about to give up.
Christy Santoro said: They should have been ready for the heavy traffic.

Amazon Prime Day ends Wednesday at midnight.
