Prime Day always serves as a terrific indication of which deals our readers love most. Since everything is on sale during Prime Day, the most popular products always outshine the rest. And when it comes to smart home devices this past Prime Day, nothing on Amazon was anywhere close to being as popular as the MyQ smart garage door opener.

Chamberlain’s original model and the newer model with Bluetooth both retail for $30, and that’s how much you’ll pay for the updated version with Bluetooth if you buy one now that Prime Day is over. But someone apparently forgot to flip the switch on the Wi-Fi version that comes in black. That’s right, it’s back on sale with a huge discount! But wait… there’s also a bonus. On top of the discount that slashes it to just $23.99, there’s also a special promotion that gets you a $40 Amazon credit if you try the new Amazon Key service with the coupon code KEY40. That means Amazon is basically paying you $16 to get yourself a MyQ!

Prime Day was crazy this year. Everything you can think of was on sale at great prices, from wildly popular AirPods to all the Fire TV and Echo devices you can think of. There was even a crazy deal that got you a best-selling Alexa smart plugs for just $3.75 each — and that deal is still going right now if you use the coupon code LJFPY4K4!

We can’t even remember the last time we saw so many fantastic deals on Amazon. And it gave us a much-needed break from everything else going on in the world. And it should go without saying that Amazon’s hottest smart home device was hugely popular during Prime Day.

The original MyQ smart garage door opener was first released a few years ago, and it cost $100 at the time. At that price, it was absolutely worth every penny. This awesome device can be installed in about 15 or 20 minutes by anyone. It lets you open and close your garage door using your smartphone. Or, you can even just your voice thanks to Alexa support! Maybe you never want to wonder again if you remembered to close your garage door as you rushed to work. Or perhaps you’re just sick of dealing with that annoying keypad that never seems to work on the first try. In either case, the MyQ is an awesome purchase.

Did you miss Amazon’s Prime Day deal? Well, stop feeling upset because you’re actually in luck. The MyQ smart garage door opener is back in stock right now after having sold out recently, and it’s down to $23.99 until someone finally realizes Prime Day is over.

We also have more good news! There’s no question whatsoever that the MyQ is going to sell out at that price. Once it does, however, there are often other sellers that have it in stock with a deep discount. Make sure you check Amazon’s “other sellers” section for the best price.

On top of all that, you can even take advantage of a special promotion if you want. The MyQ works with Amazon’s Key service for in-garage deliveries, and you can get a $40 Amazon credit if you enter the promo code KEY40 when placing your first Amazon Key order.

If you decide to take advantage of that promotion, Amazon will end up paying you to get a MyQ. How amazing is that?! The only problem is delivery estimates are already starting to slip. That means there’s a good chance the MyQ will sell out soon. You’ll be kicking yourself if you miss out on this deal. Definitely get in on the action while you still can. And if you decide you want the newer version with Bluetooth, it’s also on sale right now with a tiny discount. And of course, it’s also eligible for the $40 Amazon credit!
