Black Friday Deals! - Eeyore - 26-11-2015
Hi Guys.
Black friday is here and annoying as it is there does seem to be some good deals out there... so when you find them post them here! FYI peak trading times are 6am till 9am and then over lunch time... obviously around when people arent at work.

I've taken Friday off of work because I know for a fact I won't be able to move due to Bicester Village.
Kill me now.

I'm looking towards Cyber Monday instead, want some RAM and maybe a GPU.

I'm now off to Walmart in my pick-up for a Thanksgiving turkey...oh wait, this isn't America.
On topic though, H7 Nightbreakers are cheap at ECP today...

Black Friday can f*ck off tbh. I hate the fact that christmas is becoming a purely material thing. Thats clear by the fact that most children now days get iPads or other expensive shite they don't need for christmas. I heard something on the radio a little while back basically saying the average spend in a family for christmas is about £450 per person. £450 on a f*cking child!!?!? No. Why aren't people instilling into their children that Christmas is a religious holiday and not just an excuse for presents?! Even still, I'm not religious by any means but still celebrate christmas. Not for the presents but for the time off work to chill out and most importantly, to spend quality time with the ones i love. This is what children should understand!!

regardless of what people thing there are good deals out there and that is the point of this thread. Not to whine about how todays society continuously spends money in a frivolous manner in such away that the next generation will not appreciate the value of it.
for example... pebble smart watches are cheaper than ever...
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/pebble-smartwatch-49-00-currys-2329163
go pros for £129.
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/gopro-hero-3-action-camcorder-white-edition-currys-129-2333416
24" PC screen for £78...

This is what children should understand!!I was about to say I agree entirely and that I don't know how anyone can spend that much on Christmas etc but then I realised my parents had paid for my new garden fence 'for Christmas' and when you put it in that term you can see it's easy for parents to do but I suppose if we didn't have Christmas they'd do it anyway.
That said I'm not spending more than about £30 on each of the 4 people I'm buying for and know that I'm getting each of them something that they'll utterly love.

Because today is Thanksgiving. Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving... That would make far more sense if we took on the whole American tradition...
As for Christmas becoming materialistic, the majority of people aren't overly religious these days so this means it's just another holiday so excuse for people to get pissed and have 'fun'. I understand it's 'magic/mysterious' for kids when they're being lied to but apart from that, I'd much rather do without it. Bah humbug.
Same goes for Easter, I'm not religious, I don't like chocolate eggs, I tend to eat fish on Fridays anyway, so again I'd do away with that as well. Peer pressure and social convention means I have to do these things anyway though.
RE: Black Friday Deals! - Niall - 26-11-2015
But theres something in that Tom. Im not religious at all. Anyone that knows me knows that I'm quite against religion (although i do respect those that have religious beliefs) but Christmas for me is not about religion. Its about being with your loved ones and like you say, have fun, get pissed if thats your thing and most importantly enjoy your self. Its not about material things!
The sad reality is that most people work far too many hours to support them selves and their families. This is just modern life so Christmas is the only time of the year when the majority of people aren't working so that time is precious. It shouldn't be spend sulking because a relative didn't spend a silly amount on a present you'll be bored of in a matter of days.
RE: Black Friday Deals! - Matt - 27-11-2015
I don't think we should participate in Black Friday as we don't have a thanks giving and that was kinda the point of it!
But saying that, I still haven't bought anything on Black Friday, and probably won't! Just another sale with crap I don't need to buy

This is the only thing I got in the sales. It's all aloud of crap that they need to clear out like said earlier. I wouldn't usually bother bit I needed oil so made sense. I am annoyed I have become part of there statistic tho
RE: Black Friday Deals! - Eeyore - 30-11-2015
BLACKFRIDAY code at ECP works until ECP tonight. Another £20 saved as I had to buy coilpacks for the saab.
