There are very few birthdays I care about. A few key family members, my dog, Doctor Who—because I have no clue when it is—and, I guess, Amazon’s Alexa, which is celebrating its third birthday right now. Amazon has got oodles of deals on its Alexa-enabled devices, like $50 off Amazon Tap, $50 off a 10-inch Fire Tablet and Echo Dot bundle, $20 off the Echo Dot and Fire TV Stick bundle, and $33 off when you purchase three Echo Dots using DOT3PACK at checkout.

If Amazon devices aren’t your thing, enabled devices are also on sale. The Ecobee4 is $40 off, Eufy Genie is $10 off, and a free charging dock with purchase of UE Blast or Megablast.

For the next couple of days Anker KARAPAX’ GlassGuard iPhone X screen protectors are 25 percent off. The protector is made of a reinforced glass and shatterproof membrane that stays intact even if the protector cracks. It is also designed for the iPhone X’s new curved screen. Get a pack of two for $6. Use the code KARAP113 at checkout.

This pair of Rothco gloves are typically $22, but today on Massdrop, you can get them for $15. They’re made of polyester, spandex, and leather, have extra protective padding on the palms and fingertips, and have an elastic wrist to keep them secure.

Today on Amazon, snag a K’NEX kit for 40 percent off. That includes this 639-piece roller coaster kit or this 863-piece kit that can build 100 different models. Plenty more options can be found here.

With all our product stories, the goal is simple: more information about the stuff you’re thinking about buying. We may sometimes get a cut from a purchase, but if something shows up on one of our pages, it’s because we like it. Period.
