    They sound good, but I have read that these types of capsules can cause problems to the machine due to the weight of them.

    Asics Black Friday sale for me too.

    You didnt even need a VPN, just change the country to Brazil and pay in Real's, the amount was only about €16 or so.
    I searched boards and found it in the cycling forum, so dont think it was here in BA

    Thanks - tried to do it but your card needs to be registered in brazil for it now. So they've closed the loophole. Have tried paypal too without luck. Might see if I can buy a brazilian money card...

    One plus 7t offer from three.
    Still a great phone for me and still more expensive to buy anywhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 208 ✭✭kaltz


    The Helly Hansen deal for me. Was sure the order was going to be cancelled. Small bit of guilt when I found out the deal was only supposed to be for front line workers ��


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,418 ✭✭✭upinthesky


    I bought a asus gaming laptop i5 from NRG store but the item was no in stock but as it was so near Christmas they offer to send me a asus rog strike i7 with 17.5 inch screen as apposed to a 15 inch for the same price of 850, absolute bargain of the year for me!!

    I had the OnePlus 6.. but I couldn't pass up the 7t at that price


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,371 ✭✭✭Ardent


    +1 on the De Longhi Magnifica for £135. Best bargain in recent memory as it is used everyday.

    Special mentions for the Pixel 3a from Vodafone for 129 EUR and the DeWalt impact driver from Screwfix for 50 EUR.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,202 ✭✭✭Ben D Bus


    Does it have to be a BA I got off boards.ie?

    I'm the same but I've been so impressed with the quality of the HH stuff I ordered more later in the year at full price and will do so again in the future

    And me...I bought a jacket worth €150 not thinking it would actually arrive. Since then I’ve bought from them twice more. Really nice stuff.

    Can still get it on eglobal for around that price, (I assume its the same tab that was in argos?). It was down to about 250eu about a week ago.

    That was a great bargain alright, such good stuff, I assume you know about their pro account? They say it's for "professional individuals and competitive organisations, teams and clubs" think we were all associated with a GAA club at some point.. their list of occupations in the application is quite extensive, so I would say alot of people would qualify if you tried..

    Same as this, I was never that impressed with their stuff when I seen others wear it (mostly jackets tbf) but I got myself a few thermal type t-shirts which are great in the evening/early morning walks, couple of sweat shirts and hoodies, all of which I like the cut of and quality is fantastic.

    Played out as an great bit of entertainment also, ordered the stuff, money pending from revolut for a week or so, then returned to my revolut account, was sure the order was about to be cancelled, and then got an email the clothes had been dispatched, and the money was taken a few days later. Unreal.

    I know about that. Any idea what the standard discount is like? I'd say the 60% off deals only come around once in a blue moon.

    I get 50% off all orders.

    50% is not too shabby, must see if one of my outdoor clubs would apply or even try it through work

    Ya it's great, I've bought some savage jackets and hoodys, their returns process is fair good also.. as I mentioned their occupation requirement is extensive in the application menu, basically if you work outside at some point I reckon you're covered. It says "professionals" every job is a profession really.

    Also I can get anyone 20% off their first order if i refer a friend, has to be a new account though..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 581 ✭✭✭MorganIRL


    The craghoppers discount at the beginning of Dec. I got 2 sets of savage waterproof pants for golf for €65 delivered..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,189 ✭✭✭gussieg


    the best bargain for me was the first time i found boards bargain alerts , was the january galway hotel rooms free for 1 night back in 2010 i think
    had a ball


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47 Markey1


    Had to be the Garmin Venu @ £160 during the Amazon Black Friday sale for me! I might have posted the bargain, but still chuffed with the price!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 556 ✭✭✭Kerry25x


    Probably Gomo, saving me €20 every month.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,462 ✭✭✭emo72


    My hp touchpad was great. Hang on, what year is this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,060 ✭✭✭Sexual Chocolate


    Mine was probably the Black Friday Nike sale. Nike 2090s which typically go for about €150 in shops were going for €63 on Nike website.
