Amazon’s Dash buttons are here, going on sale on the e-commerce giant’s website today for $5 each. The point is to streamline the busy lives of parents, professionals, students, teenagers, mail men, etc. Rather than go online, search for a product you frequently buy, add it to your cart, and then click purchase, you can just use Amazon Dash.

“Dash Button comes with a reusable adhesive and a hook so you can hang, stick, or place it right where you need it”, Amazon explained back in March.
All of the buttons are now in “Limited Release”, so if the idea of never having to trudge over to your local grocery store to pick up trash bags sounds appealing to you, pick one up while you can.
Buttons are specific to each brand but you will have a few choice over the products that are offered by that particular brand but that’s about it for now.
Amazon sends an email notification to the phone confirming the order and, to avoid repeat orders, the Dash Button will only respond to the user’s first touch.

Dash Buttons now support 18 different products so there are 18 different buttons to be had for products like Bounty paper towel rolls, Glad bags, Gerber baby formula, Smartwater bottles and other products like laundry detergent and toilet paper. But all in the name of convenience, I suppose.
