The Echo Dot was free on Amazon for a brief moment, but naturally, it was too good to be true: the retailer is canceling any and all zero-cost orders for the tiny smart speaker. It’s not a total loss, though, as anyone who tried to get a free Dot still gets $5 promotional credit. I think it’s the company that should be paying customers for putting these spy devices into their homes…
If you thought that free Echo Dot was too good to be true... well, you were right. Amazon is cancelling zero-cost orders for the tiny smart speaker, informing buyers that a "technical error" was responsible for the surprise Audible discount. You won't walk away empty-handed if you seized the opportunity, mind you. Amazon is giving would-be buyers a $5 promotional credit, so you might still get a break on the Dot if that's what you were after. Just don't expect to see a repeat slip-up any time soon.
