Never really been into it all before.

Have decided to order the remainder of Dd’s xmas presents tomorrow off Amazon, will the prices really be lots lower?

Whether you get a good deal depends really on what you’re buying, Amazon started their Black Friday sale last week and I can’t see prices reducing any further tomorrow.

There are some good deals on electronics and specific items but I honestly don’t think there is many great deals overall. I bought some of my daughters presents in August and they are “on sale” now for more or the same price as I got them for. One item I got earlier in the year for example I got for £25 in a sale, original price was £30, it’s since been increased in price to £40 and the “black friday sale” price is £30.

Use the site Camel Camel Camel, it will show you the previous site prices of what you're buying so you can see if they've actually gone down in price.

If I know what I'm looking for I normally save money! If I start scrolling it's pretty much a roulette if I'll get a deal or not 😂

They artificially put the prices up just before a sale so no, they aren't real "deals".
