I've done alright and gotten everything i needed i think

Got myself a blender and soup maker which was cool! £30, Asda

What have you bought that youre pleased with?

What have been some deals that have made you tap into your inner Martin Lewis and say 'youre having a laugh hun'

Have you had to rein in your excitement like I have 😭

Plenty of retailers have much lesser discounts than normal so I haven't gone mad but I did buy a Regatta Orla Kiely changing robe which was about 70% off.

Can you link please?

I bought a pair of Fly London chunky Chelsea boots. I already own a pair and love them. Paid £90 for them last year, reduced from £130. This time I paid £43. Happy days!

If you are buying from Amazon it's a great idea to use CamelCamelCamel or similar to check the price history. Many of the Black Friday deals are total bollocks. I have a browser extension which is invaluable.

New TV.

Now connected up and noticing massive amounts of detail in images and sound that wasn't detectable at 720p.

Bought myself a new tablet which was a reasonable deal. Needed one anyway though and was price watching over last couple of months.

And, bought a new kettle, nothing fancy and needed one.

If anyone's interested, kitchen aids have massive discounts 🤷‍♀️

Got myself one from qvc thanks to another thread - havent opened it yet though

Amazon have discounts on their kids tablets - 45% off which is lower than ive seen it

Agree re price gouging tbh, the discounts arent always the best

There are some bargains to be had though 👀

I noticed the Miele hoover bags in my amazon shopping basket had a 20% mark down due to black friday! Bought them instead of waiting for pay day next week

Brought bits and pieces including a bread maker (for me) , but all the main stores had same price . Still, nearly £40 off is pleasing.

Hollister had buy one, get second half price on sale items so picked a few things up there.

I bought boots which I was planning on buying anyway, and they were 25% off which this company never does on these particular boots as they are a core line. Really chuffed

Not really. I’ve had my eye on quite a bit, but have noticed the prices have been massively hiked up so the huge reduction is actually only a few quid less than it was a couple of weeks ago, and it will probably drop to a Lower price during a non sale period.
