    For audible, I go to cancel and choose the option to get cheaper for the following 3 months, then fake cancel again, repeat.

    All I got offered was either a free credit or a £10 voucher

    I'm in Dublin. Long story short, due Monday (confirmed Friday night) arrived Saturday. Clueless driver couldn't read map. Drove in and out of estate repeatedly but never as far as me. Didn't even slow to look at numbers. Finally I got on to the logistics team and he came back and drove slowly and got to me. Hours wasted on a weekend when I was supposed to help a family member.

    When I stop getting a decent Audible cancellation offer I cancel completely and sign up a 3 months at half price offer. This can be done over and over.

    Are you looking at the US site? If so you'd get hammered on duty for that not to mention wrong mains plug.

    It's a preorder in the US (2nd November) so unlikely to be in the UK for a while

    Some of the Alexa stuff has started appearing on special early (is there now on the UK site and app.

    We are a google/next house but **** me they are dumping stuff cheap to get people hooked into their eco system.

    When amazon prime started many years ago, it was a good sale....there was a limited number of good deals....o

    Now there's just too much $hit to get through... And by the time you find it it's gone...


    I put about 10 items on a watch list early today (tried to be prepared) and most of these deals are already cancelled, which means I have to go searching again....


    Now I gave lots of things, I might consider, on keppa tracking, so hopefully it might alert me to some deals?

    For those that don't know, swipe left on the Prime Day Deals start at Midnight banner and you will see the deals on Amazon devices specifically

    Atm there is an Echo studio Speaker for £140. Not sure of the quality but haven't seen that before

    Yeah they do deal every hour during day time but still overall its getting worse by the year.

    No firesticks discounted at all - which was almost guaranteed discounts on Prime Day and was good deal. Now they are discounting that as a limited time deal with limited quantity.

    Nothing on EU sites is that good of a deal. The Echo devices have been discounted last few days anyway. Deals are generally similar on UK site.

    Very disappointing sale overall.

    What's the best way of searching all sites?
