After I ordered an Echo and decided it was great (at the $99 price), DH got an invitation. He ordered one so we can keep one downstairs and one upstairs. His estimated delivery date was late March. But he got them email that says it's on its way!
So Echo watch!
Hmmmm. It's Tuesday, the 24th. Order page for my Echo says, "Arriving Thursday by 8:00 pm. Not yet shipped." Let's go guys! I've had mucho trouble with delivery of my Voyage. It should have been here last Saturday. Hopefully I'll get that today.
Well, Echo #2 arrived yesterday. It was 28 degrees outside so we let it sit inside for a while before turning it on. This one set up properly the first time without having to use the reset feature. Now I'm learning how to manage two Echos with the same app. It's a little weird but it works pretty well.
Even though I am constantly checking my email, I somehow missed that I had an invite to purchase an Echo way back on Jan. 6th. My invite has long since expired, so I just put in a new one but I'm so bummed.
We do now because I finally got frustrated with the music and stuff and bought my own membership in January when it was on sale for $72. But I requested the invitation back when his was the only Prime account in the house. And he requested one as well.
We do have the household accounts set up where our stuff will cross and the Echo will let us switch profiles from his stuff to mine and that was OK. I just wanted my own
I did by both phone and e-mail. I got $10 Amazon credit after I called about delivery date and another $10 that was in general mailing, I believe, to all whose deliveries were postponed. Then I have $5 due to Voyage delivery delay by Fed Ex. $25 to spend on Amazon.

Just curious--when you just had the one Prime account, and you both got invitations, were you able to get the $99 price on both? 'Cause hubby would like to order another one, but he doesn't want to pay more than $99, and he doesn't have Prime.
WOOO HOOO! (Is that how you spell it?) Amazon recently told me my new later delivery date is March 17. Just looked in my e-mail -- "Welcome to Amazon Echo" e-mail. Why so early? Then I saw e-mail -- Your Amazon Echo has shipped. Estimated delivery is Monday. Delivery by Fed Ex. Really. After experience I had very recently with Fed Ex (Home Delivery) and my Voyage?! UPS, please.

Yes we were able to get two of them at $99 when I did not have my own dedicated Prime account. But I was on Duane's cuz I got free shipping etc even when I ordered. Does that help?
When I opened the box, I was a little unhappy to see another wall wart. Oh no! It's not too big -- not as bad as some. I'm in an older one bedroom condo. There aren't a lot of wall sockets. (Building is app. 45 years old. Built before cable and all this technology.) Thought I might have to get another strip. I didn't. It's plugged into cord that has multiple normal-size sockets.
Just ordered my Echo! It's supposed to arrive mid-May to early June. Maybe the date will be pushed up. Anyway, I almost missed it again and only got one because of the reminder email that my invite was going to expire tomorrow. I have been watching my email like a hawk, and have done a search of my mail and spam folder for the invite to see when it was sent. There's no record of it. How can that be?
