When I asked her to place the order, she confirmed the price. No mention of delivery.

I have only recently bought an Echo so relatively new to Alexa. At the moment I just use it for the radio, turning on/off the lights and a timer. I’m loving some of these suggestions though!

I always thank Alex when she turns the lamps in the living room on and off and when she plays music, in fact I am always saying thank you to her 😊

Oh really 😂, I thought that’s what most did with their Echo. I get way too excited over something so simple, I’m forever getting her to turn them on and off for fun. I’ll probably blow the bulb at this rate 😬

You can also use alexa to make free phone calls as long as the number is in your contacts list, so just add which every number you want to dial.
Alexa can make many animal noises. A useful skill if you catch the bus is the bus skill which tells you the time of the next couples of buses at your stop. |

Sorry to tangent. Not for the first time.
My Alexa which we use with Spotify has started saying “Active user first name Spotify” over the last few days. Don’t know what is means. I googled it and found 5e same issue on Reddit without a solution. Any ideas please?

We have all the Christmas lights on smart switches and linked to Alexa so we say "Alexa turn on Christmas" and all the christmas lights come on in various rooms. At night we say "Alexa goodnight" and all the lights go off. I also love dropping in on the kids or making announcements if I want them to do something, saves screaming up the stairs.
