Wow.. Price wars.. How low can you go?
The lower the better. I got it from audible sub last time, only $17 dollars with 1 free audible book.
$18 with 50 skins was also a good deal.
Hopefully not any lower because I already bought mine
So it will be lower tomorrow then.
with the 5% off storewide then yeh :(
What's the difference between 2nd vs 3rd gen?
1 gen
This is my kind of cnuty comment.
In fact it's -1
Ones newer
Fabric cover built in (to match Google Mini)
plastic vs fabric
better speakerI think the speaker for the 3rd gen surrounds the device, where as the 2nd gen, the speaker is on top.
Apparently the 3rd gen is 70% louder, I could be wrong though.
I have both. 3 is louder and looks nicer. Otherwise as far as I can tell they are the same.
Third gen apparently sounds much better. I have a second gen and it is perfectly audible, it's just not very bassy and does not have great range. Also, as someone already said, 1 gen.
Well done on posting your first deal, Homr :)
Thanks and I also got the first post wonder award too :D
Many thanks for the support :)
Keep ‘em coming!
Awesome! Ordered 2 off Amazon this morning but may as well get 2 more form JB for only $39 (using $10 discount)
How do you get $10 discount?
yeh but how does it work like lets say i wanna buy this right do i have pull full amount first then they refund me 10 dollars?
@ShotzzAU: Buy a $10 JB gift card and get the $10 discount voucher. Then use the voucher to buy Echo or something else.
@miruki: yeh but dont you pay 10$ extra then? wait so lets say i buy the gift card and i get the voucher does that count as $20?
@ShotzzAU: You can use $10 JB gc to pay for Echo too unless I am wrong.
$10 JB gc + $10 voucher + cash or cc.
Life saver, I forgot about my $10 voucher!
Why get multiple of these?
Because I can? Just to have in multiple rooms
aight dude relax was just wondering
Also what are the normal price on these?
RRP: $79 (or $39 on Amazon now that the 3rd gen has come out)
They should really pay you to put one of these into your room. They got consumers’ data which is much more valuable.
Agreed - they know how often I turn on my TV and kitchen lights!
Yep - hence my post re :
2-Factor Microphone Mute/Unmute for Siri / Alexa - to Enable/Disable Active Listening

OT… what is the best price you can get the google home mini for?
Could you price beat at officeworks?
I'm sure you could if they have stock. All the ones around me don't though.
Why did this show as $39 for me? (Qld)
You need to add 2 in cart
Haha right you are. Oops. Off to cancel my order…
Bought it last time with Audible subscription for around $17 …but doesn't add any value …I am just setting my alarm and reminder using it . .. that's it.
you can also talk to Pikachu.
"Alexa start sleep sounds". Thank me later.

maybe it's Ozbargained…. oh, it's back on again, but same cant add to Cart -_-!
Can we expect a similar deal from Google for the Home mini in the upcoming days ?
The only reason these are so cheap is because the next Gen has come out which has a far superior sound. Amazon is just clearing the excess stock for the older product.
can this be price matched with TGG? As I got an unused voucher with them
me too
update: just called them. They can honour it but, will not apply any coupons or concierge vouchers. Bummer.
They will do it instore
If only they acted as wifi extenders that would be awesome.
Why? WiFi extenders are a terrible idea, just put another access point to cover any blackspots.
Amazon is doing it too - look for promotions on the product page. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B078GH9T4R
Hey Alexa, are you watching me while I shower?
Alexa: "That image will.. haunt me :("
Mate I work hard for the flab and folds on my body
2nd gen speaker sounds horrible
its $25 bucks what do you expect. Okay for kitchen use by any means… hook it up to your home system if you want it to be louder.
.No louder isn't the issue it just sounds very average compared to the Google home mini's
Once again just hook it up to any other speaker. You can't do that with Google Home Mini.
This is just a non-issue.
Can you purchase this deal in store or it is online only?
This deal is online only. they would not honour it in store.
I purchased online and click and collect was ready in 15 minutes
same
Canberra centre JB was fine with it in store. Just showed them the web page. https://photos.app.goo.gl/mCPL9uoULNy4Yhrq8
What is the use case for this?
I have a google HM. Do I need this? Will I have robot wars in my house?
I have a google home mini but wanted to expand, does Echo works well sort of together with home mini? As in, using the same google shopping list and some smart lights. Curious to find out
They work for linked lights and smart devices no sure on shopping list
Awesome deal. Just grabbed 2 for $49 instore. One for my family, one for my sister's family.
I set ours up and it's so great when paired with the JBL Flip 4.
Amazon Music Unlimited is currently $0.99 for 3 months, too.
Thanks OP. Got it for $22.34 each with 5% JB Wed discount code and 4% off from RACQ rewards.
Secured 2 for 39 with the 10$ voucher. Thanks to both posters
echo vs google home, which one is better besides Smart home(I don't need smart home function)
Echo 2 sounds terrible. It’s almost like a phone speaker. Echo 3 is on par with home mini.
But when Bluetoothed to a JBL Flip 4… bliss.
Myer Sydney also sells the same price.
Good guys now has the Echo Plus 2nd Gen with a bulb for $129… https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/423112
I've just got one of these to pair with the dots i bought!Is the Echo Plus worth it over the dot?
I don't have the answer to that (as haven't got it yet), but I would say the dots are great if you want them split up over several rooms, but if you just need 1 it probably makes sense to get the Plus
I don't understand, that's the price for 2?
thanks mate, used 2 x $10 vouchers to get it for 29.
Hopefully the 5% off tomorrow can be stacked with this
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/422105
Would that be online only though?
5% off code is working
Hi, what is the 5% code?
See this deal, you'll receive a unique code from Instant Deals mailing list. Hopefully it's not too late if you signup now.
@hamza23: Thanks! i did sign up so I may of missed the boat :(
