Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) for $59.99 ($70 Off)—Best Price

A device that's basically a tablet and smart speaker in one, the Echo Show 8 (2nd Generation) is a handy addition to any household, especially smart homes. While not be the most recent edition of the Echo Show, it's still worth your while— especially at a reduced price.

The Echo Show 8 performs several different functions in one convenient package. It allows you to access and control most of your Alexa-compatible devices from a single hub, from cameras to lights and beyond, either on the interactive display or with your voice. The Echo can also be used to play movies and TV shows from your favorite streaming services, make video calls with loved ones, play your Spotify playlist, set alarms and reminders, check the weather, and display your favorite digital pictures through Amazon Photos. And the wide 8-inch HD screen coupled with the 13 MP camera and stereo speakers ensure top-notch audio and visuals at all times, without taking up too much space.

It's also great for monitoring home security devices, such as Ring Doorbells, video-equipped baby monitors, and other home security cameras. If you have more than one such camera, you even have the option to monitor multiple feeds at once; you'll be able to keep an eye on your dog in the backyard and your baby asleep in their crib at the same time, for example. In other words, your new Echo Show 8 is a device that you'll find yourself using for daily and occasional tasks alike.

Insignia 32-Inch Fire TV for $89.99 ($60 Off)— Good Deal

The Insignia 32-inch Fire TV is great for watching your favorite shows and gaming sessions alike. It offers high-definition 720p resolution and an LED-backlit LCD screen. It'll send audio directly from the HDMI jack to a compatible soundbar or AV receiver, removing the need for an extra cable.

That doesn't mean this Fire TV is lacking in connectivity ports, however. It has three HDMI ports, composite (AV) jacks, digital optical output, USB port, headphone jack, coaxial jack, and an Ethernet port built-in. Also notable about this TV is that it supports both Alexa voice control and ApplePlay. Simply press and hold the voice button on the remote and ask Alexa to search for and launch your desired content.

With ApplePlay, you'll be able to send photos, videos, music, and more directly from an Apple device to your TV, all at the touch of a single button. And its 32-inch screen makes this Insignia Fire TV the perfect choice for a small bedroom or dorm television, while still offering plenty of modern conveniences many of us have come to expect from our televisions.

Garmin Venu 2 Smartwatch for $261.55 ($138.44 Off)

If you're in the market for a new fitness smartwatch, the Garmin Venu 2 Smartwatch is well worth a look. Though it lacks some of the extra features other smartwatches possess, such as the ability to control your smart home devices or access digital voice assistants, there's still plenty to recommend this watch. You will be able to receive calls and texts on it should you choose to pair it with your Android or Apple phone, as well as download music and use the Garmin Pay app to make purchases with just the flick of your wrist.

That said, the main draw of this smartwatch is its ability to track your fitness and health goals, and it performs these tasks admirably. It can keep tabs on all the usual fitness and health features that many smartwatches have, such as heart rate, step count, and sleep cycles, among others. But it also offers more advanced versions of these features, including (but hardly limited to) advanced sleep detection, advice on how to get better sleep, hydration levels, and a relaxation timer to remind yourself when you need to take a break.

In terms of exercise, this watch offers a true cornucopia of sports apps (25 total) to monitor your progress on a wide variety of workouts. Whether you're jogging, swimming, rowing indoors, cycling, golfing, or doing a HIIT, yoga, or Pilates workout, the Garmin Venu 2 Smartwatch will track all these activities with detailed metrics specifically for the sport or activity in question. And not only will it tell you approximately how many calories you've burned in a session, but it'll keep tabs on your workout intensity levels, automatically count your reps, offer preloaded cardio and strength workouts, and much more.

Microsoft Office Home & Business for Mac 2021 for $49.99 ($170 Off)— Limited Time Deal

Most of us use some form of Microsoft Office on a regular—if not daily—basis, whether for work or personal use, or both. Rather than pay for a monthly or annual Microsoft 365 subscription, save yourself almost $200 by grabbing this copy of a Microsoft Office Home & Business 2021 for Mac: Lifetime License today.

While you aren't purchasing Microsoft 365 and will thus miss out on a few of its features and apps, Microsoft Office Home & Business 2021 is well worth your time and money, as long as you own a Mac PC that runs on at least macOS Version 11 Big Sur. It provides lifetime access to the 2021 version of the most commonly used Microsoft apps; Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook, as well as OneNote and the basic version of Teams. You'll be able to download and install your new software right away, and also have access to free software updates and Microsoft's customer service for your troubleshooting needs.

Keep in mind that you can activate your new license on only one device, so be sure to install it on whichever computer you'll need to access Word, PowerPoint, etc. on the most, be it the shared family computer or your personal laptop. And be sure to redeem your purchase within 30 days, or you'll miss out on your lifetime license to Microsoft Office Home & Business 2021 for Mac.

Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus Tablet for $94.99 ($85 Off)—Best Price

Tablets are the perfect blend of convenience and portability, and the Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus Tablet is an excellent option if you're looking to upgrade your current tablet. With an impressive 4 GB of RAM and an octa-core processor, it's twice as fast as the previous generation, ensuring lightning-fast responsiveness and seamless multitasking. It also offers wireless charging (though the wireless charging dock is sold separately), as well as a battery that should last you around 12 hours and 32 GB of internal storage.

The brilliant 10.1" 1080p Full HD display will deliver a visually stunning experience with plenty of viewing space. You'll be able to enjoy all your favorite apps from the Amazon's app store, from Netflix to Kindle to Spotify to Instagram and beyond. This tablet will also keep you connected with video calls on Zoom or Alexa, and even get work or homework done with Microsoft Office and Dropbox. Especially since the optional split-screen feature lets you multitask effortlessly.

The Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus Tablet is not only a performance powerhouse but also a sleek and lightweight. It's thinner and lighter than the previous generation, with a strengthened aluminosilicate glass screen. And thanks to Alexa's hands-free capabilities, you can more effortlessly manage your tasks or even turn the tablet on and off without lifting a finger.
