Very seem to have very bad reviews on trustpilot but maybe its only people who have issues taking the time to review them.

Was the TV reduced? Have been keeping an eye on that 43" but didn't see it drop.

Oat23

43" Hisense 4k TV - £256
PS4 slim (500GB) with UC4 & FIFA - £178
12 month Dramafever renewal for $75 instead of $100 + a free roku stick.
2 of the 7" fire tablets for €37 each
Some PS4 games in the flash sale like Skyrim for $27.
Civlization VI for €16, but apparently this was a misprice and they are going to try to get steam to revoke the key. Pretty sure that's against the law but anyway..

Unless I come across a good deal for an nvidia shield, I think I'm done now.

It dropped for about 40 minutes on Thursday morning.

Thought very were hard to get anything delivered to ireland

biebiebie

Nada.
IMHO it's been a crock of sh!t this year.
Gone downhill each and every year.
More like Bleak Friday.

Anyone remember when Amazon used to end the Friday night offers with the console giveaways?
Those were the "Good old days".

Even though i spent more cash this year but bought much fewer items, last year had far better big brand stuff from the likes of Amazon.
Lots more computer components and accessories,this year its all cheap chinese electronics in the lightning deals.

Hunchback

Nearly got a car wash for 2 euro.

Amaze

TheDriver

Remember 2-3 years ago when Argos etc used to have savage price wars on certain items and websites kept crashing. Onto amazon CS to price match Argos and waiting for a lightning deal to start. Even at god awful hours.
Also notice no prime only deals this year either, tis like they have all given up on ****e friday

siblers

Car insurance for €600

madcabbage

Managed to nab a 750gb Ssd for a good price but the feckers have double charged me!

iggy

Was waiting on getting two Nintendo 2DS for kids Xmas pressies and not one single deal I could find.
Wanting to get a 2ds bundle deal but nowhere had a discount that I could find.
Checked on UK HD in the search option and they have been a lot cheaper before.
U think cyber Monday any better for Nintendo consoles?

Glad its not the 1928-1945 range!

Check out the history of Boss AG and you might not be in such a hurry to keep buying the products of this company

Did you know that they designed and produced the Nazi SS uniforms?

No agenda in this post - just don't feel that this board should be promoting any brands that have such a chequered history... bargain or not!

Logitech Harmony Elite remote @ £133.25 (RRP £280)

2x Xbox One S 500GB (Minecraft) with Forza H3 @ £199 (one is her Christmas pressie ) will trade my old one plus some games into CEX to make a decent chunk back!

A couple of small bits in the Amazon used items sale and some clothes from ASOS.

Yeah better dump Volkswagen, IBM, Ford and never drink Coca Cola or Fanta again along with never touching any medication manufactured by Bayer along with avoiding Standard Oil. Or use Allianz insurance

Also don't forget to make sure get people to avoid Chanel and Christian Dior and also stop the ladies buying Louis Vuitton.

Also make sure to never drive a BMW or Mercedes and chastise any you see doing it.

If Boss producing uniforms upsets you make sure you dump all phone and computer tech too as a lot of components come from Israeli company's who no doubt had links to government who have not so great times with Palestinians. Oh and dump any of your stuff made in China given its carry on towards it population.

By the way Hugo Boss is fab

You forgot about never driving on the autobahn because you never know which part Hitler was responsible for.

WTF? Is this the politics forum? By your logic we shouldn't buy or deal with...

• Volkswagen. ...
• Bayer. ...
• Siemens. ...
• Coca-Cola, specifically Fanta. ...
• Ford. ...
• Standard Oil.
• IBM
• BMW
• FORD/GM
• Kodak
• Audi (Group Auto Union)
• Deutsche Bank
• Nestle
• Allianz
• MGM / Warner Bros
• Woolworth

AS1890

• FIFA 17 PS4 - £29.50 delivered to ROI address.

• 3 pairs of Nike runners for less than 1/2 price. They were on sale and I got 30% off using XMAS16

- Nike Pegasus running trainers €128 reduced to €84 got them for €61

- 2 pairs of Nike Lunar Glide trainers €122 reduced to €74.50 got them for €59

• 49" Finlux Full HD LED TV - €239 in Harvey Norman. Spec's are not brilliant but it's for a spare room with a Chromecast. Don't need it to be outstanding.

whoopsadoodles

My mam was going shopping so I asked her to get me make up. There was 10% off it so I got 2 bottles for €59.40 instead of €66.

Except I gave her my bank card and told her to buy herself and my nanny lunch. Which she did. With wine.

So yeh.

No bargains for moi!

****in worth it though. Going out tonight and had no make up. I'd sooner have used emulsion on me mug than gone to the shops this weekend.

Hey do you mind me asking where you got the runners, in the market for a pair myself.

That's what we have credit cards for :pac:

SeaFields

Nothing unfortunately. I was keeping an eye on a The North Face jacket across a few sites but the black Friday sale price was higher than some previous reduced prices on those sites.

Think I'll grab an Amazon fire tab tonight alright. My last tab, a Samsung tab II, which was also a BA a few years back has gone AWOL. I probably left it in a hotel somewhere.

sword1

Nothing, i was watching for psn4 for santy but any of the decent bargains had games for big kids/adults so will wait and see if a suitable bargain is there monday

degsie

A UE boom speaker, echo dot and xbox gold 12 mth. That's all folks.

If it's the tab I was looking at earlier I'd reconsider... low screen resolution and only 1GB RAM really isn't enough anymore IMO. You want Full HD and 2GB minimum and they don't seem to do their own one in that spec
