The latest Echo Show 5 is on sale for a record low of $40.

It also makes for a good alarm clock thanks to its sunrise alarm and tap-to-snooze features.

18679 | 26-year-old with $145,000 in student debt can't afford Christmas. She's giving 'affordable gifts or combining gifts with my older sister'
For Nicole Plauché and her family, Christmas is the time of the year where they can use their preferred love language: gift giving. This year, however, Plauché is worried about how much she can afford to spend on gifts. Her main struggle? Student loan payments.

Marisa Johnson, 26, has approximately $145,000 in student loan debt from both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Since the COVID-era payment pause ended in October, she’s been paying back $300 a month while she waits to see if she’ll be enrolled in a new income-driven repayment plan.
Because all of her money is going to necessities and paying back her student loans, Johnson hasn’t been able to spend as much on gifts as in previous years. |

Between being a mom and a new grad with a salary to match, Plauché says she can barely manage her daily expenses. Still, she feels a responsibility to give her family gifts because that’s how they have traditionally shown each other love.
“I don’t want to give my family this message that they’re not loved and it definitely adds a lot of pressure,” she said.
Johnson feels guilty because the holidays are the time she feels she can show her family how grateful she is for them. She has always prided herself on being a great gift giver who not only finds something nice but knows how to spot unique and special gifts.
“I think I’m a little embarrassed to tell them that this year I might not be able to be a good gift giver,” said Johnson.
Acknowledging that you’re feeling pressure is a good first step towards making a plan to set expectations and be realistic about what you can spend.
