EARLY PRIME DAY DEAL ON ECHO DOT!!

 Amazon Prime Day is less than 24 hours away and the excitement is building. This is the perfect time for you to get your hands on the items needed to create your own Intruder Alert!  Echo Dots are Buy-2-Get-1-Free with code  PDDOT2PK  Even better, there is an EARLY PRIME DAY DEAL that'll get you a dot for $25!  " Early Prime Day Deal:  Only  $24.99  when you order with Alexa. Just say,  "Alexa, order an Echo Dot."  Restrictions apply.  If you don't already own an Alexa device try downloading the Alexa App to your phone and see if you can't ask her to purchase the Echo Dot so you can get the deal. I have not tested this theory - just throwing it out there! But please leave a comment if you find that it works!  (Click the photo to be taken to Amazon; affiliate link)

Alexa, Strobe the Eff out of the Intruder

 The ever-so-popular with 3.3M views TikTok I made of an Alexa Intruder Alert had overwhelming suggestions to add strobe lights. So, off to Amazon I went!  I purchased:  https://amzn.to/3wY9aRx  And here's how it all came together: Want to see all of my videos? Follow me on TikTok and Youtube @wineopotamus 

Alexa, Intruder Alert (VIRAL TIKTOK VIDEO!)

 This was my first video on TikTok that went absolutely bonkers viral:  Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG3rI_pg-Ys  TikTok link:  https://www.tiktok.com/@wineopotamus/video/6966063790303628549?lang=en&is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1  When my husband and I first saw an Alexa routine like this floating around the interwebs we knew we HAD to try and recreate it! First things first I hopped on to Amazon to find Alexa-friendly wifi lightbulbs and I ended up with GOSUND:  https://amzn.to/3hPKMgL (CLICK THE LINK to be taken to Amazon via my Affiliate Link)  And of course if you'd like to create your own Alexa routines you'll first need to spend just a little money on an Alexa (here's the Dot that I use - I bet there will be a sale on Prime Day!  https://amzn.to/3yIqOdC )
