Save a cool $59 when you buy Nest's hottest thermostat and speaker together
An odd couple in your cart, but the Nest Audio and Learning Thermostat will fit your home nicely
Homes don't become smart all of a sudden — like most transitions, it's quite gradual. But you can kill two birds with one rockin' deal by picking up a Nest Audio and a third-gen Nest Learning Thermostat for a bargain price.
Huge Nest sale has something for everyone, including smart displays, speakers, cameras, thermostats, and doorbells
Who said Nest product couldn't be marked down on Prime Day?
If you've been online today, you've most probably noticed the avalanche of Prime Day deals. Although these include a lot of tech products, there are no Nest products in there. Thankfully, these products are also marked down and available from a bunch of online and physical retailers.
Who doesn't love a good deal? While limited-time discounts are one way to get things for less money, manufacturer-refurbished products represent a great option — especially when they're backed by the same warranty as brand-new ones. So if you were looking to pick up a Nest product, you should certainly check out the Google Store's refurbished page, which now offers a bunch of new offerings.
Google's $279 Pixel 3a sale expires tomorrow (May 28)
And a whole bunch of Nest deals are reaching their ends, too
The Google Store started a sale last week on the Pixel 3a and a whole bunch of Nest stuff. The 3a phones have grown into old age for their product cycle, so if you do want to get a new one while supplies last, you only have through tomorrow to do so.
Nest is the go-to brand when it comes to smart thermostats. Its products are reliable and look sleek, but they're not necessarily cheap. Thankfully, you'll be able to get one for just $140 if you're a Costco member, which is $110 less than the usual price.
When I set up my smart home infrastructure, I waited until Black Friday discounts to pay a little less for all my intelligent devices. Whether you're starting from scratch or want to add new products to your existing smart home configuration, you'll be able to benefit from exciting markdowns on a wide array of Nest products. These include security cameras, alarms, locks, thermostats, smart speakers, connected displays, and Wi-Fi routers. The markdowns will be available from November 28 until December 4, which will give you plenty of time to shop.
With Black Friday less than two weeks away, retailers have already started discounting some items and teasing their full-blown deal extravaganza. Google is joining them today with its own early look: The entire Google Store front page has been themed with black and a list of upcoming sales is displayed below it.
Nest is the leader of the smart thermostat pack, and for good reason: its units work well, and they're easy on the eyes without being unrecognizable as thermostats. If you're interested in picking one up and you've got a Costco membership, you're in luck: you can save about 40 bucks.

One of the constants in consumer societies is deals. As long as companies exist and make products, they'll try to discount them to move some inventory and gain market share. That's even more true when it comes to the smart home, where products are often considered novelties but can also provide a strong tie-in to an ecosystem. Like Amazon, Google wants you to grab its own smart speakers and connected devices, so it keeps discounting them to lure more of us in. I have enough smart devices in my home, but if you're still looking to beef up your own setup, there are some Google deals to take advantage of now.The discounts started today and will last until July 17 2019 at 11:59 PST, so you have a couple of weeks to make up your mind. But overall, these are some of the best discounts we've seen on these Home and Nest products, or at least they're close enough. They're also better than the most recent Father's Day deals.Most notably, you'll find a half-price Google Home Mini, $160 off a two-pack of Nest Cam Outdoors (it's even better than the four- or six-pack deal), and a Nest Learning Thermostat with free Google Home Mini for $189 (a total of $109 off). Here are the noteworthy deals:
Google Home Hub has some neat integrations with various smart home products. You can, for example, use it to adjust thermostats, or see who's at the front door. Google-owned Nest just so happens to make both smart thermostats and smart doorbells, among other things — and right now, you can save 80 bucks by buying a Hub with select Nest products on the Google Store.
One of the most interesting things you can do with a smart display is to pair it with a doorbell that streams and records video, making it easier to identify visitors before you get to the door. If you have neither of those devices, Google is currently offering a bundle deal for its new Home Hub plus a Nest Hello doorbell that reduces the smart display to $99 from $150, bringing the total for the two devices to $328. Both the Google Store and Best Buy are also offering the discount when customers pair the Home Hub with a variety of other Nest and Google products, including the third generation Nest Learning Thermostat. 
Below is the full list of Nest products available in Best Buy bundles:
The full force of summer has landed and it is hot out — maybe too hot. Too hot to play, too hot to think, and certainly too hot for paying full price on your favorite tech hardware and accessories. This past week we've seen some tempting deals cross our path, and while a few have already come and gone, we're taking the opportunity this weekend to remind you about some of our favorite offers that just happen to still be available.

- Count yourself among those value-seeking shoppers who have a Costco membership? Wirecutter has clued us in to an even lower-priced bundle for the Nest Learning Thermostat and Home Mini, yours for just 0 total.
Do you need some new smart and useful gadgets in your home? Maybe you want a doorbell camera to keep an eye on visitors and delivery packages while you're not home, or maybe you need a smart thermostat to save on power and keep your house at an ideal temperature all the time. In that case, Nest should catch your eye — even more so now that you can grab a few of its products at a discount.
It appears that there is an internet-wide sale going on today. Right now you can pick up a Nest Learning Thermostat for around $199 at the Google Store, Amazon, Best Buy, B&H Photo, Target, and even Ace Hardware. That's a savings of $50 off the normal price of $249. The Google Store made a post today on Google+ about it, and from the image, this promotion should be running through July 8th.
I'm going to be honest with you guys: I honestly never though the "learning thermostat" thing would actually be a...thing. A thing that people cared about; a thing that anyone wanted (outside of a select few, anyway). But I was wrong about that. Tons of people have Nest Thermostats, and tons of people love them.[EMBED_YT]https://youtu.be/1qkSkOn4h-A[/EMBED_YT]Today, Nest announced the third generation of its well-received thermostat. It's not a massive upgrade over the previous generation, but there are definitely some decent improvements along for the ride this go. For starters, it's thinner, and the display is larger, giving it a more refined, high-end look. It also has a new feature called "Farsight," which lights the display up when you walk into the room, making it easy to see from a distance...hence the name Farsight. You can choose to see either the temperature, a digital clock face, or an analog clock.
