Default 'Black Friday'....
I vaguely remember this from last year but this year it seems really hyped up and talked about. Another American thing it seems that's now the norm in the UK. I'm planning to bag myself an Xbox One at long last and to do some Xmas shopping. Hopefully I'll save a fair bit so no complaints from me even though it is very commercialised!

Keep an eye on Amazon, they have a week-long sale at the moment with some bargains to be had.

Amazon has had some great deals on Xbox Ones.

Everybody seems to be going nuts for
Disney's Frozen Snow Glo Elsa Disney's Frozen Snow Glo Elsa
which is a singing doll. They're currently going for crazy money on eBay/Amazon.

Is it wrong, morally - not legally, to sell them at an inflated price to people who didn't have the foresight to buy them earlier?

We're planning a big sale tonight via my eBay shop
We already sell most things cheaper than anyone else, but the target is to clear as much as we can before the end of December.
Quality-Basics-UK.
Thermals, Onesies, T-Shirts. Some things are already on sale, but later tonight we plan to go hardcore on the sale

I'm just avoiding this otherwise I'll end up buying a load of 'bargains' that I simply don't need!

Trouble is Black Friday is America's January sales as they don't have sales all year like us. I really dont expect massive savings.

Boxing day onwards is mental for sales in America and you have to get in early to get the main bargains. I will be in the shops when they open on Boxing day especially Bestbuy

GAME have a very good deal for the Xbox One with 4 games for £299. The only trouble is is that I don't like the games in their bundle.... I'm keeping an eye on Amazon instead until a bundle pops up with a couple of games that I like.

Yes I saw that. Amazon have that bundle starting at 10:30am so hopefully it'll be that price.

I went past our local asda this morning and people were queuing around the car park to get in. All to save 20 quid on a crappy television.

I hope the retailers that are calling the Police to disturbances are getting billed for wasting police time

I wouldn't be surprised if some people walked out without paying judging by all the chaos
