    What's on everyone's Santa list?

    I have for myself:
    PS4 Pro (But I'm told by someone in the know that Smyths might be cheaper)
    Philips Hue Starter Kit

    Watching for others:
    Nintendo Switch
    Nvidia Shield


    Edit: Do we reckon there will be a Warehouse 20% offer this week? I saw there was one in October last...

    Already on sale.

    Amazon’s Black Friday has been crap the last few years.

    Looking for a Win 10 tablet, doesn't have to be a powerful one, just for browsing and email for a family member. She might use it to watch videos, Youtube and the likes at most.

    Missed out there months back where they were at the lowest ever.
    They sold out so fast

    I’m looking for an echo this year, and I’m not even looking at anything else. I always end up buying stuff that I had no intention of buying.

    Thoughts on how cheap an Xbox One X bundle will be had for? Sub-300 likely?

    Given its Amazon discounting it's own brand, they'll be virtually giving them away - to buy market share of the smart assistant market.

    Yes once the black ones.

    Had 2 but one went faulty after 8 months.

    They took them back no issues at all.

    I'll be hopefully getting a new set.

    Worried about WiFi range, through walls.
    What sort of price are we expecting them to drop to? The 2 camera set is £135 currently.

    Yes, I have 4 outside. Have been very impressed. They need to be in range of a small hub unit that in turn needs to be in range of WiFi. But work well in all weather, and excellent battery life.

    Fire HD10 reduced to €100 on .de.

    Would buying from the German site be a bad idea for Santa?

    No it would be quite clever, he buys from multiple sources, he's rather thrifty.

    Got the big echo for downstairs and the dot with the clock on it for upstairs for £90 something and I had a £25 gift card. That’s me happy :D Now just to keep myself from buying anything else.

    Had the Echo Show 5 ordered for £50 yesterday.
    Echo Show 8 is only £60 now.

    Think I’ll go for the bigger one.

    I'm looking at a Philips Hue starter kit for £70. It says it includes a bridge but Amazon is telling me I need to buy a hub to have Alexa control it. Am I right in saying the included bridge allows that or do I need the hub as Amazon says.
