Whole Foods Market Helps Set a Place for Alexa at Your Holiday Table
In addition to getting to know Alexa and test-driving some of Amazon’s best-selling devices, ’tis the season for Whole Foods Market customers to get a head start on their holiday gifting by taking advantage of upcoming Black Friday deals. Starting the week leading up to Black Friday, Amazon is offering a variety of deals including $20 off the Echo Dot, $20 off the all-new Amazon Echo, $30 off the new Echo Plus, $30 off Kindle Paperwhite, $20 off the new Amazon Cloud Cam, $20 off Fire 7 tablet and $30 off Fire HD 8 tablet.
In addition to playing your favorite holiday tunes, Alexa can also help make your holiday cooking and shopping a little easier:
Alexa, what are you thankful for?
Alexa, tell me a Thanksgiving recipe.
Alexa, add Whole Foods Market chocolate truffles to my Thanksgiving list.
Alexa, how long does it take to cook a 10 lb turkey?
Alexa, set a pecan pie timer for 30 minutes.
Alexa, add wrapping paper to my shopping list.
Alexa, play the “Thanksgiving with the Family” playlist on Amazon Music.
Or, ask Alexa to tell you a Thanksgiving joke.
Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods Market closed in August 2017 and these collaborative programs are another step forward in the integration between the companies. Whole Foods Market and Amazon will together continue innovating to provide customers with a great shopping experience, in-store offerings, and lower prices.
