I posted some pretty standard info including hobbies, instagram feed, and the usual Amazon wish list and to be honest I've been kinda busy and a little under the weather so hadn't thought much about redditgifts other than some basic research on my targets.

Roll on yesterday I get an email saying my gift had shipped so was immediately lifted in spirit, I get home today to find a parcel waiting for me on the side, I was speaking with my wife at the time so was not fully eyes on the prize but I opened it and found a simple note of Enjoy your gift! From: /u/(username)

My wife was certainly eagle-eyed enough to point out I was holding an Echo Spot box and at that point, ohhhhhhhhhhh snap my Santa got me an echo spot, what? surely not!!!

I quickly get it set up and give it a test run, minutes later my four year old understands the core concept and is asking it the time and commanding Alexa to play the Moana soundtrack.

In summary, this is an epic above and beyond gift that our whole household will use so thank you from us all.
