Amazon.com - 12-Pack Vegan Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies for $10

Deals and Review of Roku, Fire TV, and Google Chromecast: Today, there are deals on all three popular streaming media players: the Amazon Fire TV Stick, the Google Chromecast with Google TV, and the Roku.

The deals:
- Fire TV Stick for $38
- Roku Streaming Stick+ for $39
- Chromecast with Google TV and Netflix Budle for $90
All of these support 4K display, and have similar features with different navigation menus and slightly varying remote controls.

Who should buy which? In our opinion:
- The Fire TV Stick is for a household that pays for Amazon Prime membership and likes a streaming experience focused on Prime content. Also, Amazon Echo smart speakers integrate nicely with the player.
- The Roku Streaming Stick+ is our pick because of its simple navigation, easy setup, compatibility with Apple AirPlay, and just about every streaming app is available including Netflix, YouTube, Apple TV+, Prime Video, HBO Max, Hulu, and others (except for YouTube TV, due to a contract dispute with Google).
- The Chromecast with Google TV has a place in the household if you fit one of these:
  - If you already pay for a Netflix subscription and want a new streaming media player for nearly free, this Chromecast bundle costs $90 and includes 6-months of Netflix. It applies as an $84 credit toward a new or existing Netflix account, and activates when the Chromecast is setup on your TV. So, if you were already planning to pay for Netflix for the next 6 months, this effectively gives you a Chromecast player for $6 more than the cost of 6 months of your Netflix membership. Or,
  - If you want an Android-based player because of their vast app library of more than just streaming services, or
  - If want to add peripherals and storage to your player. The Chromecast with Google TV is compatible with any USB-C which provide USB ports. You can add hard drives, flash drives, memory cards, a webcam, a microphone, and an Ethernet port. USB-C hubs cost extra, and likely require buying a higher-powered USB-C power adapter than the one included with the Chromecast.
There is no wrong choice. These are our recommendations based on experience with all three.

People like their Roku. The Fire Stick is also well-liked, but we see more Roku's in living rooms and Fire Sticks in kitchens and bedrooms. More entertainment-focused living rooms may opt for a more expensive player like a game console (Xbox, Playstation) or an Nvidia Shield TV.

The remote:

The Roku's remote is the easiest to use on this list. The rubber arrow and OK buttons feel firm and easier to touch than the plastic circles on the other brand remotes. Our least favorite remote is Chromecast's. It has no play/pause button which left us with a less convenient way of reaching for the navigation wheel inconveniently placed at the top of the remote, every time we wanted to pause shows during bathroom and snack breaks.

The setup:

Chromecast was the most difficult to setup of the above three. Our Chromecast failed to connect to our strong wifi until the fifth try, and would not power the TV on & off like the others. However, the Chromecast's ability to use USB devices is a nice benefit, and we will soon try adding a webcam and microphone for video calls on the TV.

Streaming apps:

All players support nearly every streaming app available, with very few differences between them. The Chromecast with Google TV had more hiccups than the others, including occasional audio sync issues that would not automatically correct until we paused the video.

Voice control:

All worked adequately for launching apps and playing shows, such as, "play Bridgerton on Netflix." All were hit and miss with general commands, like "show me comedies." For Internet searches, smart speakers like Amazon Echo and Google Home worked better than using any voice remote.

(expired)

Deals on the list include:

Micro SD Memory Cards (used in some non-Apple mobile devices, some laptops, drones, portable game players, and GoPro cameras):
- Samsung EVO Select 256GB MicroSD U3 Memory Card for $30 (11.7¢/GB). Normally about $40.

- SanDisk 512GB Memory Card for Nintendo Switch for $98 (19¢/GB).
- SanDisk Extreme 1TB MicroSD U3 Memory Card for $180 (18¢/GB). Normally about $220.
SD Cards (used in some SLR and Mirrorless cameras and some desktop/mini computers):
- Lexar Professional 256GB U3 SD Card for $34 (13.3¢/GB). Normally about $45.
- Samsung Pro Plus 256GB U3 SD Card for $38.40 (15¢/GB). Normally about $48. New card with positive reviews.
- SanDisk Extreme Pro 256GB U3 SD Card for $50 (19.5¢/GB). Normally about $60. Our Mirrorless camera used this card for over a year, without any problems. Same deal at Newegg.
For MicroSD and SD cards, "U3" means it supports fast write speeds capable of recording 4K video and fast-saving of high quality photos. In our opinion, get a "U3" card if you plan to use with a camera that can either record 4K or take rapid amount of photos. If you plan to use in a computer or mobile device, a "U1" card should work just as well as a "U3" card.

For use with a GoPro, they have a list of officially supported MicroSD cards.

Amazon.com - Smart Sticky Note Printer for $90 Pre-Order
Later this year, Amazon will develop and ship a Smart Sticky Note printer. Speak your reminders onto your compatible Alexa/Echo device, and it will print a sticky note for you.

Some notes:
- It must be paired with an Amazon Echo device (sold separately) that is generation 2 or newer. It will not be compatible with 1st generation Echo and Echo Dot.
- Comes with 1 yellow sticky paper roll. Refills will be available for purchase, and will be available in blue, pink, white, and yellow. Also, the paper seems like it would be "thermal", meaning the printer would not require ink but the paper would feel cheap.
- Will be 4.7" x 4.7" x 3.2" in size, about the same as a toilet paper roll. So it will be small, but not tiny.
- You won't get it until July to September of this year.
- $90 price is valid for pre-orders placed by March 19. Prices rises after then.
In our opinion, if you rely on Alexa for your scheduling assistant, this will add the benefit of note-taking. However, if Alexa is not your go-to device, this purchase may not be worth the $90. It may not compatible with PC and Mac, and would service limited functions.
