QVC has an early smart home deal today ahead of the Black Friday shopping bonanza. Putting Amazon to shame, QVC is offering the Amazon Echo 2nd Generation Speaker (2 Pack) for $99.98. The 2nd gen Echo speaker alone costs $99.99, so that’s $268 off the cost of buying two. You’re basically getting two Echo speakers for the price of one. The Amazon Echo features 360-degree omnidirectional speakers, 2.5-inch woofers, and 0.6-inch tweeters to deliver immersive, room-filling sound. Bluetooth connectivity easily pairs the Echo with your smartphone or tablet to stream music and podcasts. Alexa-enabled for voice control, you can play music, control other smart devices, and order pizza using just your voice. This bundle includes two 2nd generation Amazon Echo Speakers with an AC adapter, USB cable, and quick-start guide for each. To sweeten the deal even more, you also get a bonus FreeTime Unlimited Pandora Premium voucher so you can rock out to your favorite tunes with on your new Echos. Your smart home needs plugs and smart bulbs for you to control with Alexa. Amazon is offering the Wemo Mini Smart Plug or the LIFX WhitE Smart LED Bulb for $10 each via coupon code “SMART10”. That’s hands-down the best price we’ve seen for either device, which normally sell for around $20 when they’re on sale. There is a catch. For the coupon to work, you must own an Echo or Sonos One device. Moreover, the coupon will only work if you didn’t participate in Amazon’s last $10 smart plug sale, which occurred just before Prime Day.
