Anyone come across any good Black Friday deals?

Amazon have started their lightning deals today.

Crucial 256GB SSD £59.99. Not sure how good a deal that is.

Ahhh Black Friday...the American tradition of rushing out, stampeding and potentially killing people (by the stampedes) to buy stuff at discounted prices the day after you celebrate being thankful for all you have....I love how the rest of the emulates these sorts of things :|

Yeah.. I did always find that odd..

"Dear Lord Jesus, we pray and thank you for all that we have, on this day. We thank you for our families.. etc, etc, etc"

The next day: OMG XBOX DISCOUNT RAARGH!

 

People camping out all night to buy things.. The mind boggles.. Won't catch me doing that.. Not trying to be smug, but I really don't understand it. :confused:

 

On the flip side, The Oatmeal is selling a Blerch stress ball that I kind of want..

Who exactly is Black Friday FOR?

 

Everyone who would buy this stuff is working...

 

There's actually a pseudo-conspiracy theory that its main purpose is for the government to get their welfare money back for a month.

.. Despite the fact that the vast majority of the purchases are through private establishments and very little of that trickles back into the American government via tax.

That makes perfect sense and I have no reason to doubt you at all.

I find it interesting that it's made it's way over here... I can kinda understand ASDA (Walmart), and Amazon, but now British companies?

 

Why? (Not that I'm complaining if I can get something I want for cheap)

 

 

 

 

Also - @Garacesh, I now keep singing the Octodad theme tune in my head everytime I see your sig.

 

"Who's that man in the....." NO, NO, NO - GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

I'll be keeping an eye out, I'm hoping tesco will do a deal on their hudl 2. But I'm not optimistic.

Ooh that would be nice.

If they wanted to be really awesome, they'd offer a trade-in discount if you schlep them your old Hudl 1.. I'd totally do that.

 

But they won't.

In a way I feel like this about Christmas, Easter and other religious festivals, why celebrate it if you're not religious......

 

I dont want to get into a religious debate but that's just my thinking.....

Those mentioning graphics cards....

 

Get thee behind me, Satan! Must... resist...

 

Don't actually need a new card - at least not until Witcher 3 comes out (I assume) - but that's very tempting. Be strong!
