Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

Exceptional personal assistant

I've had the Amazon Echo Dot since the first generation, and I've loved it. Still do, in fact. But I also love the Google Home Mini. Both are great, inexpensive personal assistants, but they also have their respective pros and cons. Generally speaking, they do almost all of the same things, and at current holiday price point of $30 are a great deal. The one aspect of the Google Home Mini that I love compared to the Echo Dot is the vastly superior speaker. That said, I really wish it had an aux out. But since the speaker is much better, that isn't a huge gripe for me. Overall, it's a great personal assistant, and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

No more dead spots

I couldn't recommend Google Wifi enough. I was previously using rented equipment from my ISP (Bright House / Charter Spectrum), which was fine, but left me with some really iffy coverage in my basement and garage. Since getting Google Wifi, I have zero issues in either of those spots and elsewhere in my house. Further, after having paired it with an Arris Surfboard modem, my overall connection is MUCH more reliable. My connection reliability wasn't terrible, but I was finding I was having to restart my rented modem / router combo unit relatively frequently. The Surfboard and Google Wifi combo is unbelievably more reliable, and I'm actually getting consistently faster speeds with the exact same speed package from my ISP.
Setup is incredibly simple, and the app is really great. From reading reviews before I purchased, I kept reading one major gripe was the lack of direct access to the router, and only limited advanced setup options from the app. For my needs, this isn't really an issue for me. I'm tech-savvy, but the mesh system is simple to setup and works as it's supposed to, so I don't really have any personal complaints there.
I researched competing mesh systems heavily, and this seemed like the best bang for the buck in my opinion. It seems like better setups exist, but you're also going to pay for it, and closer to about $500 for similar coverage. My entire square footage is about 2700, so the 3-pack is a bit overkill for my needs, but it just made sense to me from a cost standpoint to spend $300 for the 3-pack instead of $260 to purchase 2 units separately. And I'd rather have overkill than one corner of the house missing out on connectivity.

I had the first generation Chromecast, which was a great device. It's no surprise that the new version is just as great, and faster to use. Great product.

Keep the action going with the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit. Recharge while you play or afterwards, even when your Xbox is in standby. The long-lasting rechargeable battery fully charges in under 4 hours. Say goodbye to disposable batteries and having to swap them out in the middle of a game.

Great disposable battery alternative

I hate going through disposable batteries, so this rechargeable battery is a great alternative. Plus, being able to plug & play to charge and continue playing is great. There's nothing worse than your batteries dying in the middle of playing CoD and having to sift through drawers trying to find new batteries.

These PSN currency cards are great for purchasing games, movies, and TV shows from the Playstation Network. The smaller denominations are also great for game add-ons or cheaper indie titles.

Great for opening up your Xbox to being a full entertainment box. I typically use the gift cards for game add-ons, XBLA games, or movie rentals.

Wait for sales

I got this on sale for $40 compared to the full $60. Every year a month or two before my membership is set to expire I start looking around for sales, and I've never paid more than $40 for a full year Xbox Live Gold membership. I can't see having an Xbox without the Gold membership considering how much more content you're able to access with Gold compared to Silver.
