I've been good

Brian Cox books (all of us - they've been sitting around getting leafed through at random, all evening!)
Paintshop Pro X4 (DH, for the family PC - I use photoshop elements on my lappy)
Pink Floyd Discovery box set ( me DH)

ChaosTrulyReigns · 25/11/2011 21:36

How the heck did I miss this, Crev?

Has it been on all week?

Have you caaahs left anything for me?

amimagic · 25/11/2011 21:37

I've got withdrawal symptoms now. Frantically decided I did want the alien after all but waitlist is full :(

AtYourCervix · 25/11/2011 21:38

Jeez Chaos - go back to your cave.

Just how could you miss it? there have been 4 million threads (although this was the best one).

and yes. it's over now. never mind - it was a bit shit, unless you were after a phone, watch or kitchenaid.

i shall remind you next year.

AtYourCervix · 25/11/2011 21:39

waitlist for alien open again.

AtYourCervix · 25/11/2011 21:39

and closed again Confused

ImpYCelyn · 25/11/2011 21:40

People are really messing around buying those aliens. It's been 40 mins and the waitlist is still running. I'm stuck here refreshing so I don't accidentally miss it, I wish it would just sell out so I can go to bed.

BrianButterfield · 25/11/2011 21:41

I'm sad you missed it, Chaos. As someone who Doesn't Get Out Much, those final 30 seconds poised waiting to click to get a Kitchenaid was perhaps the highlight of my week.

Ok, that's tragic. But I thank Amazon for bringing a little excitement (and a pair of bargain GHDs) into my life.

MrsChemist · 25/11/2011 21:44

Still waiting for the alien

amimagic · 25/11/2011 21:45

Anyway, final haul:-

Tintin PS3 game - DS
Epilator - me
Balance bike - DD
Brian's cock books - DS
Patchy doll - DD
Rock hero Wii game - DS

Not bad although still pissed off with the bloody Lego Grin

jaquelinehyde · 25/11/2011 21:45

My final haul is;
Dr Cox books for dh
Dartboard for dh
weaving skateboard thingy for ds
scribblenauts for one of the dc's
Now 80 for dd
Terry Pratchet books for my dad
Remote helicopter for ds
Cars2 blu-ray for all the dc's
Leapfrog Letters computer thingy for dd2

Really, really wanted 2 aliens for dd2 and ds but nevermind, I've done pretty well considering. However, I'm glad I only realised it was black friday week at lunchtime today otherwise I would have spent all the rent money not just the little bit I have. Grin

MurderOfProse · 25/11/2011 21:46

Me too MrsChemist - wish it would just time out as well!

thereinmadnesslies · 25/11/2011 21:50

Final haul -

Photoshop elements
2 toy story aliens
XLL box of Lego

I think that's enough Grin

ImpYCelyn · 25/11/2011 21:51

The waitlist just opened and closed again for the galaxy - people having second thoughts about the price I suppose.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 25/11/2011 21:53

Ooh BrianB.

Did you get all adrenaliny?

Grin
GreenEyedMumster · 25/11/2011 22:02

I enjoyed my lost hours in the amazon.

I cancelled the camera order. It was a gift for my teenage niece. I reckon she'll use it and lose it on some drunken night out so I'll get a cheapie fuji in Argos.

I got DH the Breil watch for work. Hope he likes it.

MrsChemist · 25/11/2011 22:03

Final Haul

Brian Cox books - me
Game of Thrones - DH
a mystery thing - DH

maybe an alien - DS

OP posts:
Jux · 25/11/2011 22:12

Final Haul

Circulon pans
Earrings for dd
Game off Thrones books

I'd have got something for DH but he sneered at everything so I haven't. Anyway, I spent tons on his birthday and he got exactly what he wanted and he's done nothing but complain about it ever since!

ImpYCelyn · 25/11/2011 22:28

Anyone else still waiting on the alien?

MinnieBar · 25/11/2011 22:55

Oh I don't belieeeeeve it - the DAB/ipod dock, I told DH about it in a 'look what I got for us as an early joint xmas pres, what a bargain etc. etc.' way - he'd got me something v similar for my birthday which is the week after next. From eBay. That he probably can't send back. I could send mine back but it is better.
Typical... shows that we think alike though!

ImpYCelyn · 25/11/2011 23:22

Can you use them in different rooms?

HalfSpamHalfBrisket · 25/11/2011 23:33

haul:
kitchenaid (woooo! Have been celebrating, now barely coherent)
16gb memory card
6 months lovefilm for 17.50

I'm happy now but tomorrow there will be a headache and the prospect of a large credit card bill.

CointreauVersial · 25/11/2011 23:35

My final haul was pretty restrained:

Idiot Abroad DVD - for DB
Norton Internet Security - for me (dull but necessary)

Hope you enjoy your goodies, people.

SoupDragon · 26/11/2011 08:19

I thoroughly enjoyed it :o

Brian Cox books and the DVD set. Can't decide whether to save them for Christmas or give then to DS1 now as he is doing about space in physics.
Epilator - need a shaver adaptor plug dammit
Toy Story DVD set - DDs christmas present
Skullduggery set - DS2s christmas present
Times Atlas - for me - I have hankered after this for YEARS.

uniCorny · 26/11/2011 10:20
