The Alexa remote that comes with Amazon’s Fire TV Stick is pretty great, but that’s not the dream. The dream is being able to control your TV with hands-free Alexa rather than having to find your remote and hold down a button while you bark your commands. Well guess what: an early Black Friday deal on Amazon’s site will let you live that dream… for free!

The Fire TV Stick costs $39.99 but if you buy this bundle that includes a Fire TV Stick and an Echo Dot, you’ll pay $39.98. What are you waiting for!?
