Amazon Echo on sale for $99.99 for the next two weeksAugust 22, 2017 - 13:01 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Amazon puts pretty deep discounts on the Echo every now and then, but it’s rare to see a discount go this deep and for this long: From now through September 4, the Echo is on sale for $99.99 — down from its usual price of $179.99. The deal is technically part of Amazon’s “back to school” sale, but the company doesn’t actually seem to care whether you’re a student, The Verge says. The Echo Dot is also on sale, but it’s only $5 off, at $44.99. And the Amazon Tap is down $30 to $99.99. Meanwhile, all Kindles are $20 off. The Echo deals run through September 4; the Kindle deals end earlier, on August 26. The Echo has been on the market for three years without an update, and with Amazon now facing off against the Google Home and Apple’s HomePod, not to mention dozens of other copycats with Alexa built in, one has to imagine an updated version of the Echo is on the way, Engadget says.
