Psst! Did you hear that Alexa is now nine years old?

That's right; Alexa turns nine this week - that's almost a decade of ensuring that we're staying connected to our smart home devices. And to celebrate, Amazon is giving us a gift. Amazon has rolled out some excellent and money-saving bundles on Echo devices. It's like an early Black Friday deal for Alexa and Amazon Echo users.

The best smart displays and the best smart speakers are like the bonds that connect you to your smart home devices. In a way, they complete your smart home, especially because without them, you're stuck with controlling the devices via your phone instead of your voice.

Naturally, for Alexa's birthday, it makes sense that it's the Alexa speakers and displays from Amazon that are getting discounted. More specifically, a few of them are being bundled with a free smart light bulb – the Sengled smart light bulb that retails at $15.91 – to add to your growing smart home ecosystem.

These bundles are available now until November 12.

That's not all. Just in time for Christmas, every purchase of a pre-lit holiday tree from this list comes with a free Amazon Echo Pop and a smart plug. If it's time to replace your old Christmas tree, you better grab this deal too.
