A sunrise alarm clock please

Oneofthosewsillydays · 09/11/2022 17:42

I'm alittle weary of black Friday. I always think do they not just rise the prices of everything before hand to make it look like you're getting a better deal than you are... 🤔

Looking at a SIM free Android phone (OnePlus or Motorola)

Nintendo switch - that DS has been banging on about for months 😊 he has saved up but not enough to buy a full price one

I’m looking for a velvetiser or equivalent, and a fire stick. And iPad or Kids’ Amazon Fire. Any help would be great as I’ve never bought anything on Black Friday before!

sittingonacornflake · 09/11/2022 18:09

Micro scooter 2 wheeled with LED wheels.

growgrowinggrown · 09/11/2022 18:10

Dji OM 5 please 🙏

IncessantNameChanger · 09/11/2022 18:12

Same as a pp. Kids Fire or a ipad

Filleto · 09/11/2022 18:18

It pains me to say it but my son is desperate for one of those Dino island smasher skull things. Would be a rip off at any price but £35 is definitely not happening

Heatherjayne1972 · 09/11/2022 18:28

Honestly ?
nothing it’s an American thing. I will be at work on that particular Friday and any of the deals are likely not deals at all
ie they raise the price for the previous month the lower it again and tell you it’s on ‘sale’

it’s a well known practice

cynical ? Yes

Oneofthosewsillydays · 09/11/2022 18:33

Exactlt @Heatherjayne1972 the best deals to be had are either after Christmas, or earlier in the year. We finish Christmas shopping for main things by October, otherwise prices just shoot up.

MattDamon · 09/11/2022 19:05

Tv for the bedroom. 40-43 inches.

tearsandtiaras · 09/11/2022 19:30

The best fitbit for exercise for around £100 please

Nectarpeach · 09/11/2022 19:39

Would like a new smart watch, also looking for a new tablet for my son and a nice hair trimming set. Will probably be checking out the iPads aswell, I'll admit there's nothing wrong with my current one, I just want a more recent model.

TheRealKatnissEverdeen · 09/11/2022 19:55

@WutheredOut my son never uses his...if you get desperate pm me. Happy to sell it.

Black Friday I'm interested in an oil heater, a heated airer, weighted blanket and an ipad.

TheRealKatnissEverdeen · 09/11/2022 19:56

And an apple watch.

If it's Amazon you can use camelcamelcamel to check the price history

lurchermummy · 09/11/2022 20:41

Apple Watch (but I don't know what version is best)

Rebelmcstreettuff · 09/11/2022 20:47

Treadmill
Shark vacuum or similar
Hairdryer

Glad of any offers available.

Justme10 · 09/11/2022 20:57

A laptop, nothing fancy just cheap so I can do uni work.

Our local trampoline park does its years pass for £100 so we're getting it this year after last years debate. Works out at £2.40 a session for DSD if we go once a week although even 10 visits across the year is getting our moneys worth. There's no exclusions on dates/times you can go either.
