Amazon Prime Day

[Deanster]

Anybody snag some good deals today?

Definitely a lot of random stuff. Haven't seen too many things that interest me. I've got a couple camping tents on my watchlist that I might go for if the bargain is there.

Nothing. All hype to me. Bought the daughter a kids fire tablet last year, what a pos.

I bought one of those dahs buttons for .99 and it gives you $5 back when you order the first item.

Through Alexa I bought 12 Clif bars for $6

Got a fire tv box to use with PS Vue.

Got Echo for $99 after $30 Amazon Visa discount. Also stocked up on some diapers.

Diapers were on sale so I got a few sizes with one still in diapers and #2 coming soon.

I wish I would have had Ford and Garland wired my mirror for two devices instead of just a radar detector. I wonder if a mirror would power both?

This piqued my interest, but when I checked I think their price on Pampers (even for the huge box) is not as good as Walmart's.

I got a 'droid' for $15 in the pre-sale through Alexa. My son bought Dark Souls 3 for PS4 for $35 (not sure if that's a good deal). Probably should have pulled the trigger on a Fire TV to replace my stick but decided to wait.

But not having to go into Walmart is worth millions.

I bought a carpet cleaner in the presale. I was pretty disappointed in the actual Prime Day deals this year. At least last year had a good lawn mower, TVs, and laptops at really good prices. This year, they have lots of random stuff at decent prices. All hype.

Words to ponder truly. :smile:

Is the firestick worth it? $25 seems like a good deal

 

[stormchaser2014]

My worst nightmare.

Got a good pair of Adidas shoes for $30. Fire Stick for $25 is definitely worth it. Bought one last year and use it most days.

Did you do subscribe & save?

Bought something work related. Saw a Xbox One with two games and a $50 gift card going for $279, and almost jumped on that for my son.

How useful is an Echo - thinking about ordering one.

How useful is an Echo - thinking about ordering one.

Depends how you plan to use it.

Decent as a speaker for music.
Wife likes to use it to create shopping lists.
Not very good compared to Google or Siri for asking questions. Good for the basics like "what is the score of...", who is the president?, etc.
I doubt you'll use it a lot to order anything.
Good for automation if you have the products.

Got a TecTecTec range finder that I had been watching. Other than that the wife bought a couple outfits for my son for wedding we have in September. Nothing to exciting. Really was hoping for a nice reduction on an LG OLED tv.
