Where to buy an Amazon Fire TV Stick
*If you click on a link in this boxout, we may earn affiliate revenue.
AMAZON unveiled the first Fire TV Stick back in 2014 and since then has released various versions, the newest being the Fire TV Stick 4K Max.
There are several places you can pick up a Fire Stick including:
- Shop Fire Sticks at Amazon – shop here
- Shop Fire Sticks at Best Buy – shop here
- Shop Fire Sticks at Target – shop here
- Shop Fire Sticks at Home Depot – shop here
- Shop Fire Sticks at Lowe’s – shop here
We recommend shopping around for the best price, though Amazon usually has the best deals on Fire Sticks so should be your first port of call.
But remember that the catch is commercials – so if you’re fine with sitting through ads then there are huge savings to be had.
