Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #965
Hey there, Teri Fisher here with your flash briefing for Saturday, hope you are having a great start to your weekend.
As usual, on Saturdays, I like to suggest some commands and things that you can say to Alexa to make your life a little bit more convenient.
If you want to hear all the other previous flash briefings, of course, you can always go to VoiceinCanada.ca.
So today, I’ve got some practical things for you to say, and let’s get right to it.
The first one that you can say is, “Alexa, what are some things to do this weekend?”
So if you are looking for some ideas, that’s a great one for you, you know, in today’s world, what I found was that Alexa suggested to me some virtual events.
And the other thing is, she also gave me some options do I want an event within the arts category, family category.
So try it out, see what you think, see if you can find something that will keep you entertained and provide some enjoyment this weekend.
Another thing that you can do, here’s a practical one is you can actually ask Alexa a question like this, “Alexa, when does the closest grocery store open?”
Prime Day is this Tuesday gonna be lots and lots of sales on Echo devices
And so she will search based on your location, what is the closest grocery store and she will give you the hours, so I think that’s pretty cool.
And I think we’ll finish off with this one and this one is with Prime Day coming up, this is a good one to be aware of.
You can say, “Alexa, what are my deals?” and if you have shopping enabled, she can actually then give you some information about that.
And as you know, Prime Day is this Tuesday gonna be lots and lots of sales on Echo devices and so on.
And just a quick reminder, I am an affiliate for Amazon, so if you do choose to use my affiliate link, I do earn a small commission helps to support the work that I’m doing with Voice in Canada, etc.
And you would just go to AlexainCanada.ca/Amazon and it would take you directly to Amazon.ca but that would be my affiliate link.
And so if you choose to use it, hey, I thank you so much for that obviously it’s really very much appreciated.
Have a wonderful weekend, have a wonderful Saturday and I will talk to you again tomorrow, take care.
