The Top Smart Home Devices, Security, and Technology from Amazon: Gift Guide for 2018


When we were in Austin for the Texas Tribune Festival, we had to stop by the Amazon Store. It was amazing, but I admit that I was very attracted to the big silver Airstream outside with "Smart Life Roadshow" on the back of the vehicle. This vehicle featured all of the new Amazon products! It had trendy music playing and even a "you are at home" doormat. I was 100% sold on the experience.



Now, I just had to be sold on the product. Eventually, I was sold and I am a believer in the products. I believe in smart homes and smart devices. Remember, I am the millennial who had a Commodore 64 computer when I was four years old.

Now, the homes are smart and the people are as well. Now, let me tell you HOW smart, this experience made me believe that smart homes make our lives easier and can save us a wealth of time and money.

Here's the Smart Life Roadshow experience.


These Smart Life Roadshow experiences featured the following products:

Be Prepared for Black Friday - Do These 10 Things to Make Your Shopping Life Easier


Black Friday is RIGHT AROUND the corner and I know that all of the moms, dads, and grandparents are attempting to figure out which toys and other products are on sale during the day (er - week) of Thanksgiving.

Remember, at the beginning when Black Friday was just held on one day and began at 6am? Well, this is not the Black Friday of the early 2000s, but this is indeed the time of Black Friday Week!

This post contains affiliate links to help you build your shopping list and travel list for your family. We provide easy links for you to click to make your busy lifestyle easier! 

So, instead of dwelling on the Black Fridays of the past, let's focus on the here and now! The Black Friday of this year! The ads are already released (a week earlier than normal), but we are ready to embrace this year's event and I wanted to share a few Black Friday shopping tips and hints with all of you!



BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING TIPS!

1 - Map It Out Before You Drive to the Stores!

2 - Check Out the Deals on BFAds.net

3 - Check Out the Ads on the Store Websites

4 - Follow Your Favorite Stores on Social Media

5 - Use the Store Loyalty Programs and Ibotta App

6 - Make a Budget for Black Friday

7 - Take a Friend to Conquer More in Less

8 - Time (Think Electronics vs. Toys)

9 - Use the Amazon App to Compare Prices!

10 - Pack a Cell Phone Charger

Which tip was your favorite tip? Which one do you think most people would use.
