Furbo treat-tossing dog camera is $100 off in Amazon’s 12 Days of Deals

By Bruce Brown Published December 9, 2019

When pet owners make up holiday gift lists, it’s common for their furry friends to be among the recipients. The

Furbo Dog Camera

is a popular pet gift choice, especially for people who work outside the home and families who are all someplace else during the day, leaving their pets alone at home. Amazon discounted the Furbo by $100 for the 12 Days of Deals sale. Black Friday and Cyber Monday have passed by, but the sales keep coming as Christmas gets closer.

The Furbo Dog Camera has a 1080p full HD video camera with a wide-angle 160-degree field of view, 4x zoom, night vision, and two-way audio. Plug the camera’s USB cable into a power port or adapter, connect it to your home Wi-Fi network, download the free Furbo iOS or Android app, and you’re ready to monitor and entertain your pup.

You can use the Furbo app remotely to see what your dog is up to at any time. You also can configure the device to send an alert to your smartphone if your dog starts barking. Because the Furbo is also Alexa voice-command compatible, you can check on your pet with only your voice.

Whether you’re in the next room or on the other side of the world, you can talk with your pet via two-way audio to give reassurance. You can also fill the Furbo’s internal compartment with dry treats and use the app or Alexa commands to toss treats as a reward or just for fun.

The Furbo can also augment your home security system. If your dog barks when anyone steps on the porch or comes to the front door, your pet can play an active role in protecting your home in addition to the deterrent provided by its barking. With the camera positioned so you can see both your pet and the front door, for example, you could get alerts when packages are delivered or someone is at your door.

Normally priced at $249, Amazon cut the price of the Furbo Dog Camera to $149 for this sale. If you want to take advantage of this sweet price for a gift that can reassure nervous dogs when they’re home alone, alert owners when their pets are upset, and entertain your whole family, we recommend that you don’t hesitate because this price may not last.

Prime Day is almost over — shop these deals while you still can

There are only a few more hours left till the end of Prime Day 2020. Time is running out to shop the best deals of the year and this might be your last chance to get the best tech products at such low prices. With every second that ticks by, more deals end, and more products run out of stock. The time to shop is now. Jump on these Prime Day 2020 deals now or risk having to wait a whole year to see discounts like these again.

If you're a shopper holding out hope for better deals come Black Friday we're here to tell you that it's not a good idea. Black Friday season begins in November -- only a month after Prime Day -- and big tech retailers like Amazon might not have time to restock all the must-have products that run out of stock during Prime Day. This means there will be fewer deals stacked up against high demand. You'll have to compete against thousands of shoppers just to pick up one smart home device or iPhone accessory. Shipping delays will also be more common so any item you buy might not make it in time for Christmas.

11 last minute Apple deals to shop before Prime Day ends

Activity rings on an Apple Watch.

Discounts on Apple products are rare but for Prime Day 2020, the company has slashed prices across the board on Amazon. If you’ve been meaning to upgrade your MacBook or your relatively old iPad or even switch to AirPods from the dusty-ol’ wired EarPods, there’s no better time. But you have to act fast, because all of these deals will expire before the day's end. Lucky for you, you won’t have to browse through heaps of listings as we’ve compiled the 11 best last-minute Apple Prime Day deals right here.
Apple AirPods with Charging Case
-- $114, was $159

Apple’s base AirPods are on sale, too, and are available on Amazon for $44 off. The difference between this product and the higher-end model is that the case here doesn’t support wireless charging. Apart from that, the Apple AirPods are a no-brainer if you’re looking to upgrade to wireless earbuds. While they can connect to any Bluetooth-enabled device, they work best with an iPhone thanks to exclusive features such as instant pairing and gesture customization.

Samsung Galaxy Buds — $89, was $130

Now, more than ever, we need to get away from it all, even when we can’t leave our own houses. That’s why a pair of noise-canceling earbuds have become almost essential, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds true wireless earbuds are some of the best. Whether you just want to isolate with your music, or you need to have an important Zoom call, the noise-canceling tech in the buds has a feature called Ambient Aware, so you can move and work in total silence should you choose. At the same time, if you decide you’d like to allow some outside noise to infiltrate your space (meetings, traffic), so that you can be more aware of your surroundings, this same technology permits that. And the sound quality is phenomenal; AKG technology promises an amazing dynamic range and precise sound accuracy because of individual tweeters and woofers inside of each earbud. With these buds, you get precise, beautiful sound, and a truly wireless experience that looks great too.
