Prime Day - TODAY!

I'm typically  not in tune with all of the latest sales on Amazon, but I know someone who is -  my mom!  In fact, we got our Amazon Echo on super discount last year based on an tip from her.  So it was no surprise yesterday when she clued my sisters and I in on the start of the day and a half of Prime Deals on Amazon. 

In no time she was asking my sister Kirsten and I if we had the kids' school supply list for next school year and pointing out the amazing deals on Amazon Prime.  Not a minute later she was on the phone calling my sister who wasn't with us telling her all about the same deals!  Yes, I got the bulk of my school supply shopping done last night.  Only a few more items and I'm done!  We shop at Costco so the boxes of tissues and gallon-sized Ziplock bags are things we already have on hand.

One item that I ended up ordering this morning was the Amazon Fire Stick.  One of my brother-in-laws had shared the concept with the family a couple of months ago and Vince and I thought we'd look into it a bit more and ultimately decided (yesterday) that it's worth investing in.  I bet you can guess what my mom was telling us all this morning is now on sale!  Yep!  The Amazon Fire Stick is $19.99.  Down from $39.99!!!  Just ordered ours!
