This Echo + TP-Link Smart Plug combo will get you or someone else started w/ Alexa: $90 (save $35)

$90

Amazon is offering the Echo with TP-Link Smart Plug Mini for $89.99 shipped. That’s $35 off the typical value and is the lowest price we’ve tracked. With 15+ Echo devices currently in my home, I’m a huge proponent of giving Alexa a shot. The main reason I switched away from HomeKit to Alexa is so I could expand my smart home for less, and boy am I happy that I did. At such a low price, today’s deal makes for a great way to get yourself or someone else started with Alexa. Rated 4.5/5 stars.
