It's actually making my blood pressure rise watching my fb newsfeed filled with plebs fighting in supermarkets over tellies.

It's unbelievable. What a waste of police resources. joining clr under a pillow till the madness is over x

Just got my Snapfish order and they've cocked it up Angry I wanted portrait mode and they've done landscape so some heads have been chopped off. Have emailed them to see if they will redo it properly.

TheFantasticMrsFox · 28/11/2014 12:49

My DM and DSDad are apparently going shopping later. Upon expressing astonishment to DH about it, he looked blankly and said "what is Black Friday?" Hmm
He is clearly the last of the great shoppers.

PoopPoooDeDooo · 28/11/2014 12:57

saga Amazon generally have the black plastic casio childrens digitals for about £6. I bought DS one last Christmas and its still going strong

SagaNorensSnowflakeTrousers · 28/11/2014 13:04

Poop I just saw that one! I think it might be the winner, actually, because DS is wanting to pretend to be Marty McFly after watching the films last month for the first time. And the Casio ones have that 80's vibe going on. He also wants an electric guitar, like Marty has, so now I am looking for a Paper Jamz one on sale. I refuse to buy him the Justin Beiber keyboard guitar even though it's a bargain £6 on The Entertainer. Thanks for the suggestion!

i am off today and have been trying to get on the tesco website all day with no joy.

nocutsnobuttsnococonuts · 28/11/2014 13:30

sproingle Tesco had Elsa dresses in-store - lots of sizes.

also h&m had a blue dress Elsa style but not branded for 14.99 in their dressing up section Grin

Jenni2legs · 28/11/2014 13:40

Get a Birchbox, it's a beauty box and you get a random assortment of full size and sample products (monthly subscription so you have to cancel) for £8 with code NOV5

birchbox.co.uk/?raf=65336 - this is my referral code which gives me 50 Birchbox points when someone joins (whatever they are).

TheFantasticMrsFox · 28/11/2014 13:46

I have two codes for 20% off at Gap from 2-24th December. Not sure if they're specific to me but worth a try if you will be buying anyway.
Also two 30 day free Prime trials. Not quite worked out how they work yet mind Hmm

glentherednosedbattleostrich · 28/11/2014 13:49

Feeling quite pleased, got some boots from Amazon that I wanted told DH to buy for me for Christmas earlier in the week after DH managed to forget to buy them.

I'm very tempted by the beauty box. Can someone please convince me I don't need it. Please.

And does anyone know where I can get a plain white table cloth to fit a 200cm table for a reasonable price? It's the last thing I need apart from the beauty box!

GoofyIsACow · 28/11/2014 13:54

Ooh glen I am after a 200cm table cloth too, I found some on ebay but I was resisting, will see if i can find them.

Sallystyle · 28/11/2014 13:55

Well what a let down.

Looks like Amazon has stopped?

Can't get onto Argos or Tescos. BHS won't let me add anything to my basket.

Hmmmwhatnow · 28/11/2014 14:07

Do I need a mobigo vtech toy for my 5 year old?? Only £30 at boots [confused}

Are they good or am i just twitching??

Hmmmwhatnow · 28/11/2014 14:11

ignore where is the £8 trike? if i twitch on the vtech DD2 will need another "big" present. Thank god DD3 is too young to know Grin

marne2 · 28/11/2014 14:20

U2, I had the same problem with bhs last night, I havn't been back to try again ( as I'm still annoyed ), I downloaded the bhs app but it just kept telling me nothing was in stock so was no better than on my PC.

JessesGirl · 28/11/2014 14:25

So on Monday my dad announced that he had no idea what to get my mum and if he gave me his card details could I just get what she wants Hmm Managed to get loads of bargains for her today, including 30%off a Modalu bag from the website that she has been covering for aaaages!

I've given up with Amazon for today though, absolutely nothing I want. Also had to give up with Dorothy Perkins, I had two pairs of jeans in my basket and the site kept crashing Angry

hooplahoop · 28/11/2014 14:37

Amazon have Just dance 2015 for £15 for the wii, pretty bargainous price :)

Reastie · 28/11/2014 14:38

So far I've ordered nothing in the offers today but have had 2 orders from last week delivered

I've got this use once code for Tesco clothes if anyone wants it. They seem to have 25% off today so may be able to use it as a double discount:

Your F&F Clothing online eCoupon code TESCO54321GO: Save £5 when you spend £40 or more on an F&F Clothing online order placed on or before Sunday 30th November 2014.

There's a great deal on a couple of cameras at Argos - a canon one from £269 down to £119 including a free case or a fujifilm one that's £89 instead of £199.

I tried to see what the comparable prices were at Currys - got put into the queue, told randomly it would be 22-35 minutes whenever I checked in over the course of a couple of hours Hmm. Suddenly spotted it was down to a couple of minutes - so watched with bated breath. Got to one minute, less than one minute and I'm thinking what happens now... nothing - except it jumps back up to over an hour to wait Angry.

So I wander off, come back a few minutes later to discover that it's showing me an option to look at the page - great, I take it - but it tells me that as I have been longer than 10 minutes in taking up my place on the queue, I've lost it and have to start again AngryConfusedAngry - not least as I wasn't away from my desk for more than 10 minutes!

Their queuebot or whatever it's called has the worst grasp of timing - completely pointless.

And as for tesco - that's been whirring away all morning not being able to log in every 30 seconds... and then I opened a different tesco window for somethign else and it managed it no problems - whilst original window still thinks there's a bad queue.

Just very glad that I am not out in the real world and risking getting trampled for the sake of a dodgy tv!

Hmmmwhat they are bikes with stabilisers spiderman, peppa pig and Thomas the tank. The pedals are on the front wheel (that's why said they more like trikes) at Tescos. Cant post picture as website impossible to get on.
