The sales didn't seem to be that good this year in store. I haven't touched online. Supposedly a bunch of shops opened yesterday so I can't just stroll in at like 9-10 and get cheap stuff now.  I looked on Amazon last night but just sooo much work... we recently bought a 58" TV on a good deal with a nice sub + soundbar... we're all shopped out tbh.
Also UK has Black Friday!? I thought it was like a North American thing because so we're so commercialistic... |
I think it started in Amazon here about 4 years ago, that's the first time I became aware if it, I remember because I bough a kindle the following year we had Black Friday in the shops where there were physical fights over TVs, last year to combat the fist fights they extended it to Black Friday weekend, and this year it's been a whole week. So yeah we like to adopt age old American customs in search of even more consumerism, I expect we will be celebrating Thanksgiving in a few years
