Do you still rely on cable TV because your TV lacks smart-set features? And how long have you been meaning to take care of this? If your answers to those questions are “yes” and “forever,” well, consider this an intervention: It’s time to take action, time to get on the stick — specifically, the genius Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K. Summer’s almost over, and soon we’ll all be spending a lot more time hunkered down at home in front of the TV. Now is the time to break bad habits and start new, wiser ones. Amazon’s making it easy — the Fire TV Stick 4K is now $20 off. Grab one for just $30! That’s the cheapest we’ve ever seen it.

Get easy access to hundreds of streaming apps and channels, including Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Disney+, HBO Max, Apple TV+, Starz, Showtime and a boatload more.
Here’s how to use it: Simply plug the Fire TV Stick 4K into one of your 4K TV’s HDMI ports and the streaming device will immediately search for your home’s Wi-Fi network and wait for you to log in. (If your TV is less than 10 years old, it’s probably a 4K model. The term “4K” just refers to the resolution of the screen.)
You’ll find fun interactive settings like pop-up results for actor and director names via IMDb.
