Secret Amazon deal gets you a $20 credit when you buy two Fire TV Sticks

  • Amazon’s wildly popular streaming media players, the Fire TV Stick and Fire TV Stick 4K, are both currently listed at their full retail prices.
  • That’s exactly how much you’ll pay if you buy one of them, but there’s an unadvertised deal on Amazon right now that saves you $20 when you buy two of either model.
  • The deal isn’t expected to last very long so you’ll have to take advantage of it right away if you want to save.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

A big sale last week slashes the price of the $40 Fire TV Stick to within $3 of the popular streaming media player’s all-time low price, though it was only available to people who subscribe to Amazon Prime. That was a great deal indeed, but you shouldn’t be too bummed out if you missed it because there’s a new deal that popped up this week on Amazon, but most people don’t even know about it. Lucky for you, that’s why the BGR Deals team is here!

If you head to Amazon’s listing for the Fire TV Stick right now, there are no deals anywhere to be found. Jump over to the site’s Fire TV Stick 4K page and you’ll find more of the same. The regular Fire TV Stick is listed at $39.99 and the 4K model is listed at its regular old price of $49.99. But now, we’re going to direct you to a different on Amazon that’s going to tell another story. Head over to Amazon’s Gold Box deals page and click on the Amazon Devices link instead, and you’ll end up on this page where there’s a pair of fantastic unadvertised deals to be found. Here’s a screenshot:

As you can see, there’s a secret deal lurking on this page that you never would have come across unless you knew where to look, and it’ll get you a $20 Amazon credit when you purchase and activate either two Fire TV Sticks or two Fire TV Stick 4K models. For the Fire TV Stick, that basically means that you’re getting each one for $29.99. If you opt for the Fire TV Stick 4K instead, you’ll essentially be paying $39.99 each, which means you’re getting a Fire TV Stick 4K for the price of a base-model Fire TV Stick. That deal’s not half bad!

There’s no telling how long this deal will last, but we’re betting it won’t be around for very long at all. New deals on Amazon devices normally end each week on Saturday, so it’s entirely possible that this sale will be over tomorrow. We’re all going to be cooped up indoors for a long time to come, and Amazon’s Fire TV devices are the best streaming media players out there. In other words, this is a sale you certainly don’t want to miss.

Amazon has a self-charging robot vacuum for just $110, today only

%name Amazon has a self charging robot vacuum for just $110, today only by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Popular Roomba robot vacuums are on sale for as little as $224 right now at Amazon, while the wildly popular $650 Roomba 960 is down to $449 and the incredible Roomba i7+ that empties itself is $200 off.
  • Those are all fantastic deals, but bargain hunters looking to save some serious cash will find an unrivaled sale today in Amazon’s Gold Box deals.
  • The Goovi D382 Robot Vacuum Cleaner isn’t quite as high-profile as Roomba models, but it’s a powerful model with great reviews and it’s on sale today for just $110.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Roomba is obviously the most recognizable name in robot vacuums, and models like the Roomba 960 are the most popular robot vacuum cleaners out there right now. iRobot’s Roomba lineup is also the most advanced and innovative line available, with models like the Roomba i7+ that empties itself into a special receptacle in its base station when its dust bin is full, so it can run for months without you even having to think about it. Those robot vacuums are both fantastic and they’re both $200 off right now at Amazon, but they’re each still quite expensive — the former is $449 on sale while the latter costs $799 after the discount.

If you can afford one, either one of those Roomba models is great. But if you’d rather save that money and spend it on something more pressing, there’s a fantastic one-day deal right now on Amazon that gets you a great robot vacuum for a fraction of the cost of a Roomba.

The Goovi D382 Robot Vacuum Cleaner isn’t quite as advanced as those Roombas, but it’s far more feature-rich than you might think for such an affordable robotic vacuum. It has a slim design despite its powerful motor and strong 1600PA suction, and it also supports self-charging, which isn’t very common among low-cost robot vacuums. It retails for $209 and that’s a great value already, but a $69 discount and a $30 coupon today in Amazon’s Gold Box sale slashes the price all the way down to just $110. That’s crazy!

GOOVI Robot Vacuum, 1600PA Robotic Vacuum Cleaner with Wi-Fi, Super-Thin, Self-Charging Robot V…: $110.00

Here are some of the important bullet points from Amazon’s listing:

  • Wi-Fi CONVENIENCE: The GOOVIHome app enables you to accomplish your vacuuming needs with zero effort from you.
  • POWERFUL SUCTION: 1600Pa of intense suction picks up dust, crumbs, and dirt. Ideal for hardwood floors and carpet. Easy operation with remote control, or auto clean all at one touch.
  • THOROUGH CLEANING: 2.83” low profile design enables vacuum cleaner glide underneath beds and sofa with ease, cleaning under beds, sofa where dirt hides.
  • WORRY-FREE CLEANING: Large wheels roll over carpets and climb over door ledges to get to the mess. Multiple cleaning modes and a pre-set vacuuming time ensure an effortless clean while you do other things or nothing at all.
  • What You Get: GOOVI Robotic Vacuum, 4x side brushes, 1x extra high efficiency filter, 1x main brush, 1x remote control (2 AAA batteries included), 1x cleaning brush, 1x charging dock, 1x adapter.

Marvel movie actor busted by FBI for selling fake coronavirus medicine

%name Marvel movie actor busted by FBI for selling fake coronavirus medicine by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • FBI agents busted a man who claimed to be selling coronavirus cures and treatments.
  • The man turned out to be Keith Lawrence Middlebrook, an actor who has had small roles in multiple big-budget Hollywood movies including Moneyball as well as Marvel’s Thor, Iron Man 2 and Iron Man 3.
  • Middlebrook faces up to 20 years in prison after attempting to raise money from investors for his fraudulent business.
  • There is no known treatment or cure for COVID-19 infection, and vaccines currently in development could take up to 18 months to reach doctors.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The coronavirus pandemic currently sweeping across the globe has brought out the best in a lot of people. Healthcare workers, scientists, and everyday citizens are doing beyond the call of duty to mitigate the damage the virus is causing and work toward a long-term solution. But not everyone has such good intentions, and some are using the outbreak to make a quick buck any way they can.

FBI agents recently arrested a California man who had been attempting to cash in on the COVID-19 outbreak by selling what he claimed were cures for the viral infection. The man, Keith Lawrence Middlebrook, marketed his fake treatments on YouTube, boasting that he had developed both a “coronavirus prevention pill” as well as an injectable medication to cure those who were already infected.

This is how Verily’s drive-through coronavirus testing works

%name This is how Verily’s drive through coronavirus testing works by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Google sister-company Verily is conducting a limited coronavirus testing project in the Bay area.
  • Verily released a new video to help illustrate the simplicity of the entire drive-through coronavirus testing process.
  • People who qualify for the test will be directed to a location where they’ll follow a three-step procedure to have their samples collected. The results will arrive a few days later via email or a phone call.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

It already feels like it happened months ago, but President Trump only declared the coronavirus national emergency two weeks ago. During that press conference, he mentioned a Google COVID-19 project that seemed incredible. Google was supposedly working on a website that would be available nationwide and would include details about coronavirus testing. The reveal startled Google, which was then forced to admit it wasn’t working on anything of the sort. Instead, it was its sister company Verily that was indeed developing a limited COVID-19 screening project for the Bay Area. In the days that followed, Google announced it would develop a COVID-19 site to provide quick access to information about the novel coronavirus. But the site wasn’t exactly the sophisticated resource that Trump promised, and lacked information about testing. At the same time, Verily kicked off online registrations for COVID-19 testing and the available spots were quickly filled up. Since then, Verily launched a video that explains how its drive-through coronavirus testing works and said it’s working on expanding the program.

Get AirPods 2 for $129 or AirPods Pro before they sell out this weekend

%name Get AirPods 2 for $129 or AirPods Pro before they sell out this weekend by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • AirPods Pro and AirPods 2 inventory has been coming and going on a weekly basis on Amazon recently, but it’s likely that delivery times will soon begin to slip as Amazon temporarily shifts focus away from nonessential products.
  • As of right now, however, all three of Apple’s AirPods models are in stock and shipping immediately on Amazon, which means new orders arrive in a matter of days.
  • While AirPods Pro are currently available at full retail price, AirPods 2 are discounted to Amazon’s lowest price ever, matching its big sale during Black Friday last year.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Things are looking pretty grim out there right now. The novel coronavirus pandemic is about to kick into overdrive here in the United States, and it seems entirely unlikely that our maxed-out healthcare system is equipped to handle it. Meanwhile, the president is talking about getting businesses reopened by Easter while New York City investigates renting refrigerated trucks because there are fears that we’re going to run out of room in the morgues. It’s a terrifying time and it seems like things will only get worse, so we’re all in need of some good news. Hopefully, the news that AirPods are back in stock on Amazon at a deep discount is enough to distract you and put a smile on your face, if only for a moment.

AirPods Pro and Apple’s two AirPods 2 models have been drifting in and out of stock for a while now, and prices have been fluctuating as well. Now that Amazon is scaling back deliveries of nonessential products to free up capacity for essentials, it’s entirely possible that the current AirPods inventory will be the end of the road for a while.

With that in mind, anyone looking to get his or her hands (or ears) on the most popular true wireless noise cancelling earbuds in the world will be happy to learn that AirPods Pro are back in stock and shipping immediately. They’re listed at full price right now, but they’re well worth it if they help you pass the time more easily during coronavirus lockdown.

Apple AirPods Pro: $249.00

As a quick aside, the Sony WF1000XM3 ANC earphones are a fantastic alternative that offer even better sound quality and noise cancellation. They’re also in stock and shopping right away from Amazon, and they’re on sale at Black Friday’s discounted price.

Sony WF-1000XM3 Industry Leading Noise Canceling Truly Wireless Earbuds with Alexa voice contro…: $198.00

Speaking of Black Friday discounts, the wildly popular entry-level Apple AirPods 2 are back down to the all-time low price that first appeared ahead of the holidays last year. At $129 instead of $159, they’re a deal that can’t be beaten. If you want wireless charging support as well, you can also save $30 on the AirPods 2 with Wireless Charging Case if you hurry. Both models are in stock and shipping now, but that likely won’t be the case for much longer.

Apple AirPods with Charging Case: $129.00

Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case: $169.00

These aren’t N95 face masks, but they’re better than nothing and they’re in stock now

%name These aren’t N95 face masks, but they’re better than nothing and they’re in stock now by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Medical-grade face masks that protect you against the novel coronavirus are almost impossible to find right now, and you shouldn’t buy them even if you can because healthcare professionals have a much greater need.
  • Alternatives to N95 face masks don’t protect you quite as well, but they’re better than nothing and they’re in stock right now on Amazon.
  • DIY face masks are another solution that might be even more effective, and they’re very easy to make with a few key supplies and things that you already have around your home.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Everyone is feeling the stress right now as the novel coronavirus outbreak grows worse and worse in the United States. When we’re stressed and afraid, we’re likely to do things that aren’t exactly rational… like hoard toilet paper. We also don’t typically follow instructions very well when we’re scared or afraid, and that’s why the general public has been buying up all the N95 medical-grade face masks people can get their hands on. Please stop. Right now. Healthcare professionals on the front lines are now suffering from a shortage of face masks, and these are the people we count on to help us when we’re sick. If they’re not properly protected, they’re going to be infected by COVID-19 and then we’re all screwed. So again, even if you find N95 face masks in stock somewhere, please don’t buy them.

The good news is that there are some good alternatives that you can use without putting healthcare workers — and therefore, yourself — at risk. Just yesterday we told you about a great DIY coronavirus face mask solution that’s super easy to make and only requires two supplies that you don’t already have lying around the house. One is a MERV 13 Pleated Air Filter and the other is an Activated Carbon Pad Charcoal Sheet for Air Filters, and both are in stock and shipping right now on Amazon.

Breathe Naturally Universal 16×48 Cut-to-Fit Activated Carbon Filter (4 Pack) Charcoal Air Filt…: $28.99

If you’re not the DIY type despite how easy it is to make those face masks, there’s another option: you can use face masks that aren’t N95, KN95, or another type of mask that’s certified for use by medical professionals. In hospitals around the world where supply shortages are at their worst, medical professionals are being instructed to use whatever is available like t-shirts and scarves to cover their faces.

The simple fact of the matter is that something is better than nothing, but we can at least get you better protection than a t-shirt or scarf. Amazon has 3-layer face masks that just came back in stock, and they’re ready to ship now so you don’t have to worry about waiting until late April like you do with some shipments. They’ll almost certainly sell out quick though, so grab a box or two while you still can. And when those inevitably sell out, you can try to find more using this Amazon search for face masks.

500,000 coronavirus tests a week is helping Germany keep the death toll in check

%name 500,000 coronavirus tests a week is helping Germany keep the death toll in check by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Germany had more than 41,000 registered coronavirus cases as of Thursday afternoon local time, which makes it the world’s fifth-largest host of COVID-19 patients.
  • The country has only reported 236 COVID-19 deaths, contrasting with other EU countries where the death toll is in the thousands.
  • Germany’s secret weapon is extensive testing, as the country averages 500,000 tests per week.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The coronavirus pandemic seems unstoppable right now when you see how it has affected Western countries with advanced healthcare systems and strong economies. Countries including Italy, America, Spain, Germany, and France have all reported more than 25,000 COVID-19 cases each. Italy and Spain are the hardest-hit countries, with over 130,000 cases including 11,000 fatalities between them. The combined death toll for Italy and Spain accounts for half of the number of COVID-19 victims worldwide, which sits at over 23,000 at the time of writing. France and the US have reported more than 1,000 coronavirus fatalities each — France has over 29,000 cases and the US is pushing 80,000.

That’s why Germany’s statistics don’t add up when compared to other countries. Germany has reported over 41,000 cases as of Thursday afternoon local time, but just 236 fatalities. Germany’s secret is exactly what you might expect it to be: Extensive testing for the novel coronavirus that’s wreaking havoc around the world.

An Uber driver in New York died from coronavirus after picking up a sick passenger

%name An Uber driver in New York died from coronavirus after picking up a sick passenger by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • According to Johns Hopkins University, there have been over 80,000 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus in the US to-date, as well as more than 1,000 deaths.
  • Among those who died from the COVID-19 coronavirus is Anil Subba, an Uber driver from Nepal who was in his 40s and developed symptoms of the virus after picking up a sick passenger.
  • New York City has become something of an epicenter of the virus in the US, with more confirmed cases there than anywhere else in the country. The virus has also been spreading faster there than anywhere else.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

An Uber driver from Nepal who was in his 40s and lived in the New York City borough of Queens has reportedly died from the coronavirus after picking up a sick passenger.

What happened to Anil Subba, who left behind a wife and three children, is reflective of the insecurity and lack of benefits like health insurance that gig workers face — particularly those who drive for rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft. In Subba’s case, he picked up a rider at JFK airport in early March who turned out to be sick. He soon developed coronavirus symptoms and checked himself into the hospital some two weeks ago.
