The Financial Journey to Owning a New Home
Buying a home is a huge undertaking. In fact, it might be one of the biggest things that you do in your life. I know that years ago when I bought my first home,...

Connect at Home with Amazon Voice and Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug
How many of us are living in a home that screams the 1960s? I know that we do and we have been working hard to upgrade technology around our entire house. It’s time for many of us to step up our technology game. There are two products that have allowed us to get our home 100% connected. We hope that you love our Connect at Home with Amazon Voice and Wemo the Mini Wifi Smart Plug post.
Amazon Echo Dot
For $49.99 and free shipping, you could have the Amazon Echo Dot delivered right to your front door. The Amazon Echo Dot is a voice controlled device that helps turn any home into a smart home. Just imagine, you tell the Echo Dot to turn on your favorite playlist and she listens! You can listen to music with just your voice.
What I love about the Amazon Echo Dot is that you can use it anywhere in your home. I like to put it in my kitchen, to listen to music as I wash the dishes. I even use Dot to set timers in my kitchen, as I’m cooking. Love music? Simply tell your Echo what music you want to listen to and she’ll do as you say.
Being able to call anyone that I want and even send voice messages can be a time saver. The other person just needs to have the Echo, Echo Dot, and Alexa App. Dot is always connected, so it updates on its own, making your life so much easier!
Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug
Making my home into a connected space has been easier with tools like the Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug. For $34.99, you can also have the Wemo delivered to your home for free. Everyone needs a smart plug in their life because there is so much that can be done with it. You can convert any electronic device into a smart appliance when you use Wemo. You simply plug it into an outlet and then you can control the device through an app.
You can pair the Wemo with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant to turn those appliances on or off with just your voice. What an amazing way to turn your home into a smart home and stay connected.
I dislike coming home to a hot house, so it is neat how you can turn things on before you even get home. Your appliances and lights can come on when you decide. You can even turn on random lights, to help it look like you’re home (even when you’re not). I think the Wemo and Dot can advance your home in the technology department.

Ok, I know all about echo, but had never hear of wemo. Both are totally cool, but I love the idea behind wemo so much better!
I would love to give the Amazon Echo Dot a try. I have been hearing great reviews for it.
I have never heard of that Wemo before! We’ve been talking about getting an Echo, and I think we’ll have to get a Wemo to go with it, too. That is super cool!
This sounds like a really interesting product. I like the idea of being able to make life easier with these kinds of technologies. We won’t have the Wemo or Echo. Definitely would make things more convenient!
I have been longing for the Echo but I had no idea about Wemo!! This is crazy cool! Tech is so awesome! I have to get one ASAP!
The Echo Dot sounds pretty cool. I definitely want to upgrade my home into a smart home, but I can’t afford the costly devices. Echo Dot sounds right up my alley.
I need to look more into this system and see if it is for my home or not. Best Buy has so much to offer, I need to go shopping!
This sounds like a great option. I know we have a Google Home but may need to look at this option.
These look like the products that I need at home. I love shopping at Best Buy. They always have such great stuff.
I love that this has been a great addition to so many homes. I cannot stop hearing about the rave of Amazon Echo, seems like a good technological device for homes.
These interactive voice command features are really becoming amazing! I haven’t tried any of them out yet but your post has inspired me too. My interest is peeked!
I have heard SO many great things about the Amazon Echo. I think it is time I get one because they seem as though they are really helpful.
Now this is some cool technology and connectivity! I think being able to have that kind of control over the electrics would be super nice.
This is the first time I am seeing Wemo. Seems like a pretty cool device. Everyone has a Dot now it seems I need to get one so I can sit at the big kids table. LOL
We get spotty wifi in our home that we had to buy a wireless router. It helped but I think that the Wemo smart plug would have worked just as well. But then again our cell service is horrible here so we rely on wifi calling.
This is pretty sweet! I have never heard of Wemo, but everything about it sounds great.
I have been hearing so much about Amazon Alexa lately. Tech has come so far so fast!
Oh so fun!! My kiddos would love these, they’re really into tech. I could see them using these with their dad.
We travel a lot, so I would love to be able to turn the lights on and off at random times to thwart would be robbers. This sounds like a device I really need to consider for our home.
I think this smart system is a genius idea!! I would love to have this for myself!!
We have and LOVE these! So fun and easy to use. My boyfriend is a gadget guy, so he buys things like this as they release.. and I get to use them!
Ahh I love best buy, this sounds super cool. I will have to check it out!
Sounds like a very cool tech product! I love Amazon products, this would be a nice holiday gift for tect lovers.
This is the first time that I’ve heard of the Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug. That is just so cool! And affordable too. I would love to have one!
It seems, I’m not updated with the latest gadgets these days! This is awesome and I simply love how functional it is! I’m sure my husband will like this.
I knew about the Amazon Echo, but I’m definitely buying some Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug. That’s so useful!
Both of them sounds like an amazing product, technology today never fail to surprise me. I’ve heard of Amazon Echo before but the Wemo Mini Wifi Smart Plug is the first time I’ve heard about it.
OMG I love this! We recently got the Echo Dot and I’m surprised how much we like it and use it. I can’t wait to connect more of our home <3
Echo Dot from Amazon blows my mind. It’s so handy and I didn’t realize how handy it would be!
This looks like it is such an easy setup. Technology like this sometimes makes me nervous but this looks great.
I don’t have either of those devices but it would be so cool to be able to turn your home into a smart home. I will have to discuss this with my husband if it would be a wise investment for the house.
I seriously couldn’t love the dot more. As long as you have it setup right and organized, it’s like one of those handy robots in movies lol
I would love to have this entire setup. being fully connected is an awesome feeling.
I’ve been hearing so much about the Echo. I think I need to put it on my Christmas list.
Never heard of the Wemo and it sounds really cool. I love the Echo, it’s amazing.
Every time we see a commercial for the Amazon Echo, I tell my husband want it. Now that I have read this, I am getting one!
This sounds like a great way to incorporate smart technology in your home. I would love to try this in our home and be able to use all those features. Great holiday gift idea!
There’s nothing that compares to a smart home and these seem like great stepping stones to getting there!
This is so nice to have especially now that my kids each have their own devices. Sometimes, when all of us are using the internet, it is throwing off the wifi which is annoying.
I think the Wemo is a brilliant idea!! I would love to have something like this for my own home!!
Wow I am curious about the Wemo! I would love a smart plugin in my home!
We have the Echo Dot and I love it! When we first received it we spent hours listening to our favorite oldies and discovering things we could ask Alexa, and so on. The wemo sounds too cool. I don’t think my hubby heard about it yet and I’ll have to show him this post. I would love it!
I would love an Amazon Echo Dot! I would love to be able to tell it to play whatever music I wanted!
I love having a technologically advanced home. Now that I sold my own home, I really need to smarten up this home.
I have never heard about Wemo mini Wifi before. It’s looks so interesting. I will check this out!
I like the idea of having a connected home, but at the same time it kinda freaks me out. Not to mention, my kids would probably drive me nuts with the devices.
