Black Friday and Cyber Monday are already past us, but plenty of retailers are still offering gift-worthy deals at low prices. If you’re looking for a new video doorbell camera, a smart home device or other Alexa-powered gadget, you’re in luck. Woot is currently offering Amazon devices at up to 53% off. Though most deals are on new products, there are also refurbished items that’ll give you even more bang for your buck. Keep in mind that these deals are available until Dec. 14 at 1 p.m. ET or until stock runs dry.
If you’re looking for a smart display, Woot currently has a 2021 8-inch Echo Show for only $40. That makes it $110 less than the latest model, and it can be synced with Alexa to help control your other smart devices; it even includes a 13-megapixel camera to create a clear picture when making video calls. If you’re in need of a video doorbell camera, the 2023 Ring camera is now only $90, which is 40% off its regular price. It includes two-way talk and is a great way to keep an eye on your home and deliveries while you’re away; the camera comes with everything you need to mount it and start using it right away.

There are also plenty of deals on refurbished items that can help you maximize savings. This 50-inch Amazon Fire Omni HD TV is only $200 at Woot right now. For anyone looking for an affordable tablet, the 2019 Amazon Fire 7 tablet with 16GB of RAM is only $22 right now. Note that this particular model is lockscreen-ad supported. A refurbished Amazon smart plug, now just $12, is a budget-friendly pick that can help you automate traditional, non-smart devices around your home.
Those are just some examples of what’s available, and the entire sale is worth perusing for anyone who wants Alexa-compatible devices at a lower price. Keep in mind that Woot items are often overstock or might consist of past returns. As such, they may come in a brown box instead of their original packaging. In the case of products that have been opened and returned, Woot says they’ve been inspected to ensure they work as new.
