I am so tempted by the PURE Twilight radio / alarm but as DH keeps pointing out - we have our son to wake us up.

NoSoggyBottoms · 19/11/2012 09:11

Tbh, I'm a little disappointed by the deals today...not only by whats on offer but also the discounts given. Am I being greedy? Was expecting to be Shock but I'm more Hmm

Hoping to find something by the end of the week!

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 19/11/2012 09:14

I seem to think it got better towards the end of the week last year, if I remember rightly. Though don't hold me too it Grin

TaggieCampbellBlack · 19/11/2012 09:15

The vax mop is £50 in argos. Might wake up for it.

NoSoggyBottoms · 19/11/2012 09:15

Yeah I'm hoping that they are saving the Shock deals for later on this week.

Amazon Black Friday virgin here Grin

WhispersOfWickedness · 19/11/2012 09:16

Hmm, just had a look through, not very much inspiring. I did buy the Melissa and doug beads last week though Angry I looked in the toys category and then browsed through it all and there were some toys that didn't appear in the toys category Confused

Pascha · 19/11/2012 09:18

The vax mop is currently 49.97 so if it drops below £40 I might consider it.

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 19/11/2012 09:19

They had a kitchenaid last year. I can't remember the exact price, but I think it was about £100ish Shock. I would have got one, but I didn't want a white one nothing to do with my fat fingers being to slow. Am getting a pink one from Selfridges next month, unless my wish comes true and it's on Black Friday for £20 Grin

PrattingAroundTheChristmasTree · 19/11/2012 09:21

You know when you're on Ebay when you're in the final seconds of something you really want. Feeling excited, nervous, heart racing and adrenalin pumping no? just me?! that's how I feel all week when it's Black Friday! Even when there's nothing I want Confused Grin

Pascha · 19/11/2012 09:22

See, I would have bought the white one and sold it again for a profit.

StaceymReadyForNumber3 · 19/11/2012 09:24

Nothing I want today. :( loved this last year!

ratbagcatbag · 19/11/2012 09:29

Ok will log on. I'm at work so I'm going to have to stealth black Friday it :) I have no doubt I'll be back in two mins for assistance Grin

DuchessOfAvon · 19/11/2012 09:35

Just got an Anglepoise lamp for DH's new study for £50. Very bargainous and he'll be happy as long as he can deal with the fact that its powder blue. If not, I'll have it!

That's his birthday sorted. Phew.

ImpYCelyn · 19/11/2012 09:40

I got the Le Creuset! We're going to replace our gas hob with induction and some none of my pans will work, so it's a good excuse, no? DH is going to kill me Grin

NoSoggyBottoms · 19/11/2012 09:50

I've just been through the upcoming deals again and I swear there are new ones added since I last looked at just gone midnight (I waited up thinking the deals would start then!)....maybe I was just too tired at the time.

Someone else said they could have done this last year?

Am I right in thinking that all the deals will be listed in the "Today's Deal" section, rather than being hidden elsewhere on the site?

SpottyTeacakes · 19/11/2012 09:56

Oh they've got a PS3 coming up, how much off do we reckon?

NoSoggyBottoms · 19/11/2012 10:02

30%

CockBollocks · 19/11/2012 10:04

Thats me on the sofa all week!!

I think last years Kitchenaid offer was pretty disappointing, not much off if I remember and lots of upset mumsnetters Smile

SpottyTeacakes · 19/11/2012 10:04

Nah don't love him that much Wink

NoSoggyBottoms · 19/11/2012 10:08

lol SpottyTeacakes thats my guess anyway.

I really am finding this addictive. Quite interesting to see what is and isn't selling. I guess the ones listed later on will go faster, when more people have access to the net.

Hope nothing good is planned for tomorrow afternoon...I'm working!

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 19/11/2012 10:09

I must not succumb. Last year I bought the dog a flying jacket. I have still not lived that down.

ratbagcatbag · 19/11/2012 10:10

I still don't get it :( I've been on amazon and I can see the stuff under black Friday and scroll left and right but I dont get how you search specific categories?!? When I do that it seems to take me into normal amazon stuff. Confused somewhat. Will try again on big conp rather than phone to see if that helps. :)

Happylander · 19/11/2012 10:17

How do you find out what is on tomorrow or the rest of the week? I am not that impressed today

AudrinaAdare · 19/11/2012 10:18

On the right hand side it says Category: All then a little arrow where there is a drop-down box. Probably invisible on a phone if it's like mine.
