Whether you're looking to equip your own space with some added security or several people want to go in on a gift for aging parents and grandparents to keep an eye on things, this is a deal you won't want to miss. Amazon has slashed the price on Ecobee's Total Security and Savings bundle by $120, meaning you'll pay just $370 to get a wired smart doorbell camera, a smart thermostat, a smart sensor and two smart sensors for doors and windows in one package. It's a great chance to add smart upgrades to your home for less, and it can still arrive before Christmas.
Having a video doorbell to alert you of visitors is a great convenience. This model is wired, which requires a more robust installation, but it also means that you'll never have to worry about replacing or recharging batteries. It also offers a head-to-toe picture in full HD 1080p resolution, with 175-degrees vertical and 187-degrees diagonal field of view, along with auto-pan to focus on visitors or packages. It also has two-way audio for easy communication, even when you're not home.

Smart thermostats can reduce your energy costs by wasting less of it when you're not around, and Ecobee's Smart Themostat Premium won a CNET Editor's Choice Award thanks to its many advanced features. Your HVAC will even turn off automatically if an entryway is left open for five minutes and you'll get a notification as well. Air quality monitoring is another way this thermostat is helpful. And it has built-in smoke alarm detection as well. And with the system armed with the smart sensors in place, you'll also get alerts about possible break-ins. It can even show you a four-day forecast on the thermostat itself and it doubles as a Bluetooth speaker.
And when you register your new devices, you'll get one month of Ecobee Smart Security for free. It includes professional monitoring, live video alerts, 30-day video storage and more. Once your free month is up, plans start at just $5 per month with the option to cancel at any time.
Why this deal matters
If you've been considering a total overhaul but are on a limited budget, investing in a bundle could be a great way to get a lot of bang for your buck -- especially at this price, which just happens to be the lowest we've seen this bundle go for. It even features one of our favorite smart thermostat options, so it's particularly hard to pass up if you can afford it.

Will this item arrive in time for Christmas?
If you're ordering this as a holiday gift, you probably want to know if it's going to arrive on time. With Christmas and Hanukkah both taking place on Dec. 25 this year, and Kwanzaa kicking off the day after, it's important to note shipping deadlines for USPS, FedEx, UPS, Amazon and others.
Guaranteed shipping deadlines at some of these delivery companies arrived as soon as Dec. 16, with others offering expedited services that may allow you to order as late as Dec. 23 or even Dec. 24.
