I think the stand should automatically come with the Echo Show 8, it just looks nice. - - - - -
I did buy this thinking and reading here on the Best Buy questions and answers that it was able to be tilted perfectly vertical or even a little more at a downward angle - - - - -
Like if it were on your nightstand and your bed was maybe lower than the nightstand. - - - - -
So, No - it does Not tilt totally vertical - I have pics to show
I still recommend it :) :) :)
I had some Best Buy Reward Points - -
So I got this for only $9.99 :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have this in my Movie Room - - - - It controls my surround sound 5.2 Speakers including Center channel and Subwoofer - - - - I recommend buying a TV with ARC because this DENON Receiver should be connected to that ARC on the TV (most new tv's in 2/20/20 now have the ARC HDMI hook-up).

I use this as my main tv and it's awesome! - - - - - All my TV's are Roku TV's because they are easy to get to the settings and all the entertainment that Roku offers. - - - - - - It has an over the air tuner meaning that you can buy a powered antenna for the inside of your house (or outside) - connect the antenna coax cable to the Roku TV and you will pick up your local channels and some are in 1080P believe it or not ;) - - - - - i have 41 channels over the air. - - - - - This is good - for example it your cable TV goes out for some reason - you can switch inputs to the Antenna input and you will have TV.

I bought 4 of these, 1 connects to my router and the other 3 go to 2 Roku TV's with 2 Fire Sticks and and my other goes to another TV just with Fire Stick - (note: all 3 of my Fire Sticks have the Ethernet adapter connected to them) but remember the Roku TV's and the Fire Stick only can receive 100 Mbps Max - so in reality for me it's "overkill" for all my devices, since this Netgear Powerline 2000 can distribute 1000Mbps Gigabit speeds to any device that can accept 1000Mbps.
On all my devices that can only accept 100Mbps, I actually tested the speeds and im receiving approx 88Mbps speeds at 75 feet away, this is very good, because I had the lower end Netgear Powerline 500 products connected before these newer Powerline 2000 and they only tested at 45 Mbps at the same distance of 75 feet. So even though it's "overkill" it's worth using these because their twice as fast ;)

LOL, I'm using this Roku Ultra 4K - - - believe or not for a 15" Flat screen 1080p HD TV, because it's the only device that has the Xfinity Stream Beta App for Comcast Xfinity X1 customers - - - yes, it is overkill but its better than paying Comcast money every month to have a TV box for a tiny 15" HD TV, that I watch only for a small amount of time. - - - I have 3 Roku TV's and this Ultra so I know how awesome they are ;)

The Amazon FireTV Stick now includes the all-new Alexa Voice Remote. With the all-new Alexa Voice Remote, press and ask to easily find your favorite movies and TV episodes, plus live news and sports. Use the dedicated power, volume, and mute buttons to control your TV, sound bar, and receiver. Experience tens of thousands of channels, apps, and Alexa skills, plus browse millions of websites like YouTube, Facebook, and Reddit using Firefox or Silk. Just plug Fire TV Stick into your HDTV and start streaming in minutes.
 

Is this compatible with Xfinity/Comcast & do we need a good antenna for our tv. We currently have Xfinity-highest cable, & internet, want to quit our service but Want to make sure we get it to work, then cancel. Please advise. Thx!

So ya its "compatible" with Xfinity internet, you don't need an antenna because everything will be streaming from the internet. So you can stop Comcast Cable TV but you need to keep Comcast/Xfinity Internet because this device needs WiFi from your Router to stream these movies and apps. But the movies can't be seen unless you pay for Amazon Prime Video stand alone Movie streaming only or get Amazon Prime for $119/Yr. that includes free 2 day shipping on anything you buy from Amazon, Music streaming and some other additional services.
Also, the Fire TV stick doesn't replace the local channels and even other network channels you get with Comcast Cable TV.
So if you want to watch fake news from ABC, CBS, NBC or CNN this device does not provide that - but for most of us that's a good thing

Do. U need internet, with the firestick.

IF you want to watch a movie, YES you need WiFi in your house - and so you need a WiFi Router connected to your modem.
You can purchase an additional device to make the Fire TV Stick hard wired to an Ethernet cable. - This is what I did to ensure no buffering and a better quality connection, but I also have 2 other Fire TV Sticks that's connected to WiFi only and the quality of the connection is just as good and don't notice and difference between WiFi connected or Ethernet connected - so you're good either way imo.

This special extra-large Canon combo pack is for the serious photo printer. Designed with FINE (Full Photolithographic Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) technology, your prints will realize added sharpness, detail and quality. Plus, when printing with genuine Canon inks and photo papers the ChromaLife100 system gives you beautiful, long-lasting photos. Remember, a genuine Canon XL ink cartridge means high capacity, which means more ink for more prints!
 

Can I purchase this without the printer paper?

Yes, I bought this combo pack with the photo paper, but it's the same price if you buy the Black and Color separately - so really the paper is free.

 TracFone - Keep Your Own Phone Sim Card Kit
TracFone - Keep Your Own Phone Sim Card Kit
Use your compatible cell phone on the TracFone network with this TracFone SIM kit, which contains GSM and CDMA LTE three-in-one (nano/micro/regular) SIM cards and activation instructions to suit your needs.
 

I want to replace my old TracFone with a used iPhone 4. Will the mini activation kit unlock the iPhone, and does Best Buy charge if they do it for you?

I don't think BestBuy can unlock any cellphone, but I know any phone you want to use needs to be unlocked.
The Tracfone sim card activation kid does NOT unlock any cellphone, it just brings cell service to an unlocked cellphone.

I always bought my Tracfones through QVC or HSN since they give with the purchase of their phones, you get a year of service along with 1500, min, text and data. BUT. . .
The phones are low spec and I decided to buy Unlocked cell phones - it is more money to purchase an unlocked phone but the Specs are way better than anything QVC or HSN has to offer.
I bought a LG G6 unlocked (US997) - I already have a lot of minutes and text and a year of service with Tracfone so I just bought the Tracfone sim card activation kit for $1.00 and did everything online.

I am using a Tracfone sim card through the Verizon network - it's awesome for me.
I think if your existing verizon sim card is still active, then just put it into the sim card tray and your good.
