The Skylight electric photo frame is down to $127. This is our gift to the in-laws for Christmas and I've been watching for a good discount.

Some Magnatile sets are included in the STEM sale.

But yeah, Erin, you are right. There's not much marked down enough to make me want to jump on purchases.

The Echo Show 8 was $121 yesterday and it's $64 today! I bought 3. One for us, one for my mom, and one for my brother's family. Plus I had $20 in credits from making a purchase from a small business and spending $10 at Whole Foods. And I'll get 5% back on my Amazon card.

I'm happy!

Finding something for my mom is always so hard. And my brother and I don't exchange gifts anymore but he and my SIL have done so much to take care of my mom because they live 4 hours away while I'm 3 days away. So I'm glad I could get one for them.

My ds has an ECHO and I want one because then I can tell him to come downstairs from the kitchen plus other reasons.
I got one and it comes with a free smart plug. Ds wants a smart bulb, but I think I might give him the plug with a lamp that is also an amazon deal that does a bunch of stuff including a charging station.

I was looking at the Shark Navigator that's on their prime deals. Is this the vacuum that people here tend to like? I have a dyson that is dying and I want to replace. I remember lots of talk here about a similar vacuum that people loved...

Consumer Reports didn't test that specific model (they did the 260 one) but show 5/5 for Owner satisfaction in all the categories.

I don't need to spend money, so it's probably good I'm not tempted . I did get 2 kids fire tablets with memory cards and screen protectors for $220 + 10% back on my amazon card. The kids tablets include a 2 year warranty and cases. I'm happy with that. I also got some fleece lined pants for R.

Shark vacuums are amazing. I have 2.

I have rotator lift away models but I believe they are all fantastic.

I am never impressed but I’m pretty sure we just don’t like normal things here.

Kinda the same here. Unless I'm looking for a specific item that I know is likely to be discounted, it's not a big deal to me. This year I knew I wanted Echo Shows.

Last year I wanted a new Garmin watch and they weren't discounted. This year they are!! I'm sitting on my hands. I do not need a new watch. I do not need a new watch. I do not need a new watch.

Haha I guess I don’t know what an echo show is and also haven’t done anything about the money situation so not really trying to find out.

Yes. I only looked bc I did want an ECHO for myself for bday or xmas and knew they were discounted last year. And I did get ds the lamp. I went ahead and look through page after page of the deals and was all - nope, nope, nope don't need or want.
