Plenty of people I know have gotten the little echo dots or the bigger alternative with larger speakers for Christmas or birthdays. Technically they didn’t spend money, but their friends and family did.

I see. The initial purchase price is the “payment”. I thought the intimation was some sort of subscription to use Alexa. My bad.
