Yes, you read that right: the Amazon Echo Dot is now just $0.99 – if you opt to sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited. The deal takes two forms, one for Prime members and the other for non-Prime members...

For Prime members

Sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited, which for Prime members is $7.99 a month. From there, you'll be able to reserve your Amazon Echo Dot for just $0.99. 

For non-Prime members

You'll still have to sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited, which for non-Prime members is $2 more at $9.99 a month. You'll be able to snag your Amazon Echo Dot for $0.99 after signing up.

Play one of the 50 million songs to choose from on your new device. Deal ends: 13th November (or while stocks last)

So, how much am I saving?

The Amazon Echo Dot normally retails at $49.99. While we've seen prices drop to as low as $24.99 on a few occasions, this deal is unusually good. Ultimately, you'll get the whole package for less than $11, whether you're a Prime member or not. 

If you're wondering whether it's worth it, we can tell you that it definitely is. Not only will you be getting a top-notch smart speaker for close to nothing, but you'll get access to a massive music library with 50 million songs. Your membership is ad-free, has unlimited skips, and offers hands-free listening with Alexa. What's more, you can listen to Amazon Music Unlimited on any device. 

But what if you don't really want to pay monthly for Amazon Music Unlimited? That's not a problem: you can cancel your membership renewal at any time after your promotional first month.

This Amazon Echo Dot deal is very similar to Spotify's massive giveaway, which was announced earlier this week: eligible Spotify Premium subscribers can reserve a Google Home Mini, free of charge. 

The deal runs through November 15th, but don't sleep on it - the deal is only valid while supplies last!
