It’s nearly December, Father Christmas is busy putting the final touches to his toys on the workshop and we are busy elves preparing for a somewhat different Christmas this year.

please post any bargain info IN BOLD to make it easier to scroll through the thread.

To make things bold you:
Put a star each side of what you want to make bold like this but without the space between the star and the writing *

Just a reminder you can watch the thread by clicking on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first message. It’s much easier for everyone than so many place marking every time which can use up a fair chunk of each thread to scroll through Thanks

Here’s Barbarara’s instructions from last year on doing clicky links:

Open double square brackets
No space
Paste link
Space
Name of link
No space
Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

For more links etc see message 2

If any link doesn’t work or you want to add something please let me know by @ing me Thanks

Are you in @myhobbyisouting??

CarolEffingBaskin · 27/11/2020 00:03

Been lurking for a while... just thought I'd say that I too have got 'queue paused' on my chrome tab, but also can't click on any of the pictures on my (much refreshed) edge tab(s). So frustrating! I don't even know if I actually want the bloody switch Grin

GymSloth · 27/11/2020 00:04

Same here. Queue is paused.
I think if you're not on the page you have no chance. Please report back anyone who is actually in. I'd love to know if anyone manages to get any of the deals. According to an article I read earlier it's mainly bots these days that snap up the best bargains.

myhobbyisouting · 27/11/2020 00:05

I'm in the page but it looks no different. Can't find any Black Friday stuff yet

Shitfuckoh · 27/11/2020 00:05

It came up with a 'shop now' tab under it just now, clicked on it & says SOLD OUT. Oh no

flutterbean · 27/11/2020 00:05

I refreshed like mad and got the lego 😁
Did find it worked better on my phone than the ipad.

Gooseysgirl · 27/11/2020 00:06

Over 66000 ahead of me and it says queue paused - I'm trying for the Nintendo Switch, I'm not sure if I can be fecked to stay up to find they have all sold out...

CarolEffingBaskin · 27/11/2020 00:06

Well it started working, but there are no switches left. At all. Gutted Sad

CovidClara · 27/11/2020 00:07

@myhobbyisouting

Where is the Lego?!!!
Legoland?
dizzygirl1 · 27/11/2020 00:07

Oh no it's not showing me anything for black friday

KillZill · 27/11/2020 00:08

No Lego either. Although appears glitchy so I'm going to hang around and see what happens

Gardenworm · 27/11/2020 00:08

Lego showing sold out too 😡

Scbchl · 27/11/2020 00:08

Switches and lego all now sold out

SkintSanta · 27/11/2020 00:08

I got AirPods and really easily actually!

Thread 23 - the one where the shops are actually open again
dizzygirl1 · 27/11/2020 00:09

Ffs sold out 😔

myhobbyisouting · 27/11/2020 00:09

Oh ffs. Sold out!

AHippoNamedBooBooButt · 27/11/2020 00:09

No queue, got straight in and ordered the airpods. Now just trying to get the roomba but the link isn't working

Pawpawpaws · 27/11/2020 00:09

So I’ve just managed to get AirPods, but couldn’t get Lego which was gutting, still showing I could add airpods to basket so hopefully some more of you will get those.

Squ1ggle · 27/11/2020 00:10

I think I got the lego but I haven't had an email confirmation Confused

scrappydappydoo · 27/11/2020 00:10

Well done flutterbean - I’m still not in so don’t think I’m going to get any Sad

TheLastStarfighter · 27/11/2020 00:10

Well that was a let down! AirPods still available of anyone was looking, but lego and switch gone.

SkintSanta · 27/11/2020 00:10

They're storing baskets for 30mins so worth hanging around. I think that's how I managed to get the carrot family last week

Iggi999 · 27/11/2020 00:11

Your queue number: 10265426

Shock
dizzygirl1 · 27/11/2020 00:11

I can't even find airpods! Oh dear not a good night 😔

Shitfuckoh · 27/11/2020 00:12

@SkintSanta
Ooh thanks. I'll hang around until half past on the off chance, worth a shot after I'm up until now anyway
