I'm off out for pole soon but have asked Mic to get me the Pratchetts if they got to £35 or less

Jhadur · 23-11-2011, 22:18

So £24.99 was an ok price then? - Ordered.

Tak · 24-11-2011, 00:12

Yay

Not even had chance to look.

I did just find Paint Shop Pro X4 for 60% off though. Wasn't going to buy it, but at that price may as well as it'll also give me a second legit license.

Don't forget, alongside Black Friday there is the relatively new tradition of Cyber Monday, expect some deals to kick in on a number of online sites on Monday.

It's not really that big a problem here as it seems almost everyone is paid twice a month so most folks just got paid or get paid on Friday (?.. I kinda lose track), so most folks should have money.

Someone started camping outside Best Buy in Honolulu on Monday morning, ready for the Black Friday deals

no, they do it the week following Thanksgiving, not before ~ typical yanks have it all back to front. Besides, its amazon.co.uk, so they should cater.for their audience and screw doing it at thankgiving, it's hardly something we're going to celebrate!

Not everyone gets paid at the end of the month though either! They need to cater for everyone dammit!

Kitten · 24-11-2011, 08:55

Thats why I said 'most'.
I should really learn that you can't make a comment on bd without a full postmortem. It's my opinion, I'm allowed it, it's not because I dont understand it, and I still think it's stupid.

Oh for goodness sake, I was just teasing... calm down dear, it's just a BD post...

Should have put a barrage of

's after my post clearly.

Wasn't referring to your post Will, rather that the assumption is always that you need something explaining to you, rather than you do understand the concept and STILL think it's silly. (which, to be fair is exactly what I said after answering you). It's not always all about you, you know!
