Nah that stuff is obvious to spot with camelcamelcamel.

Unless you are buying high end tech then Black Friday in the UK is quite pants.......8700K being sold for £349.99?!?!? as an BF sale......Ha! On this side of the year! Also unless you are Amazon Prime subscriber, you get left with all the crumbs with them.

Well you can apply that to all purchases not just black friday!

I can't wait for the week/month long hype about nothing.

Good excuse to get Christmas present shopping done a month early instead of leaving it until the day before

Philips hue bulbs (I'm ready with various accounts and vpn proxy servers this year)

and on the lookout for a new hoover (dyson light ball)

I could do with a Dyson V8 actually....bloody dog hairs.

Started on the Hue light bulbs in the Amazon prime day. Originally bought the starter kit for £89

Have since bought 6x more bulbs (9 total), 1x motion sensor, 2x Hue switches and a Hue Light 2m lightstrip+

Some of the bulbs were second hand from members market though.

Exactly, my kiddo wants all the expensive toys. I done this last year and saved around £100 compared to how much the stuff was closer to xmas so its a win win really.

I want a Nintendo Switch, I'm not holding out much hope though

VincentHanna · 27 Oct 2017 at 10:02

With Super Mario just released and Christmas coming up, I imagine stock will be quite low.

I was thinking the same but as VincentHanna said, think it's too new & with christmas looming probably won't happen.

You stand more of a chance getting a Snes Mini on the sale

Hagar · 27 Oct 2017 at 11:15

Bah Humbug to you all.

Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Black Friday etc. etc. all the semi religious, semi commercial selling opportunities just trying to part you from your money seeming to be a bargain at the time.

We never actually get good deals on black Friday in this country :/

It's all Chinese knock-offs and TVs made by brands you didn't know existed.

£165 for a 1TB 850 Evo SSD what will be 2 Black fridays ago was a blood good deal

MissChief · 27 Oct 2017 at 11:36

And the i7, motherboard and ram deal Gibbo did last year was a billy bargain, saved around £200.

MikeB · 27 Oct 2017 at 11:54

XBOX One X, PS4 Pro, Switch, 4K TV, Hue lightstrips

aardvark · 27 Oct 2017 at 12:32

If Gibbo did a similar thing this year, I'd snap one up for my lad.
I bought one for myself last year and its been fantastic.
