Dont forget folks its Amazon Prime day ( I know Amazon are evil and we should boycott them blah blah bah )
anyways
picks for me,
fire stick lite, 13 quid
fire stick 18 quid
fire stick 4K 23 quid
Fire hd 8 tablet, 35 quid ( which is a great price for a 8" fire tablet )
no, they were the tech stand outs for me, as in they look a good buy if you need any of them ( we often have people ask on here )
I did grab a Fire stick lite, as our old Nowtv stick died christmas time, so used the spare fire stick we had, always good to have a spare for 13 quid
For all its critics you can't fault Amazon for making the market place competitive , and it's a huge employer in the UK

This looks interesting, adding Alexa to your car, only 20 quid in the prime sale
anyone got one of these ? ? ?
I was trying to decide whether to get one or not, again not sure so read some reviews/YouTube videos.
It seems ok, however I can use the Google smart function on my phone and have that through a 3.5mm jack in the car.
It seems to me the echo auto would just be setting that will do the same as the Google functionality on my android phone.
It employs a lot of people approx 70k plus those on zero/ franchise contracts which there are many .
I know two who worked in the new Amazon depot over the bridge full time and are not badly at £14 a hour however they get every penny out of them ( old skool management )
I have a friend who drives for them as a self employed in the evenings , average about for £70 a night for 3 hours it tops his minimum wage day job up its a strange one you get hourly rate job you bid for it starts at £13 / 14 an hour but can go up to £22 an hour when the pressure is on and they can't move the goods .
You may not like their model , buy they do help the economy , one could argue they help the poorer or less mobile in society by delivering to their door at cheaper prices ? the zero contract jobs also helps those that want flexible working like evenings to fit around childcare or need top up money so there partner can stay home ..
