Black Friday bargains?

[big10p]

It seems Black Friday is mostly hype, and there's not really any truly AMAZING bargains to be had. Or, am I wrong? So far, my whoopty-doo bargains are:
- £8.14 off a Nintendo Switch game
- £19 off antivirus software

- 20% off a rug (but it really ties the room together)

What have you guys managed to snag? Get anything super cheap?

Nothing really anything than 10% off some archery gear. Wife ( we apparently) want a separate stand up freezer , but the brands that "we" want are not in any deals. To be honest I think it's all just a big pull for folk to go and spend.

Yep, seems to be.

$hit again this year. Couple quid here and there off games that are already overpriced. Hopefully Boxing Days sale will be where the deals are at.

I been trying to get a brand new slim ps4 console since last year but prices have remained firm at £249.99 when in stock. Proper sh*te

Was hoping for a good deal now PS5 is out

Oculus Quest 2 (£249) with £50 discount and £50 promo credit

That was a good deal

I got 50x nectar point deal at lunch time over on eBay. Bought an item for £164 and got 8200 nectar points which I was quite pleased with.

I bought the 35th Anniversary Zelda game & watch for £40 at AO. Not sure if that's a black friday deal or their regular pricing but was a fiver cheaper than elsewhere

 

[mysticmonk]

I'm fairly sure I saw an in-depth report that stated 95% of the deals are actually just the regular price. 95% is pretty high!

 

[neo-geo-mvs]

...and most things on sale have been cheaper throughout the year...

If someone on here wants to give me a black friday deal on a wizard of wor cab or a vectrex I'll be pretty happy

Did the same, but maxed out the offer for 15000 points with an OLED switch. Effective final price £255

 

[Vorbis]

Didn't get the nectar offer on ebay, but did get a 10% off any purchase voucher code. Managed to buy a nice looking vectrex earlier so came in handy

 

[Vorbis]

Now just need a vecfever cart

 

[kingtreelo]

i think most deals are complete sh*te

i managed to grab some clothes i was looking at a lot cheaper than they were a few weeks ago, no doubt though the same clothes were probably in another sale at some point during the year

 

[big10p]

Must admit I've never bothered looking into what Nectar points are all about.

I know they get upset if you try and use them at Aldi

Bitmap bureau have 25% off Xeno crisis with code: xeno25

£29.85 for a year's PlayStation Plus subscription on ShopTo with the code 'EXTRATEN'. (Usually £49.99).

But.. do it on a PS5.. and you get 20x PS4 'Legendary' games that are playable with enhancements on PS5 (or then just use your same PSN account on a PS4 and play them there!). Thats in addition to the games that are available month by month and not yet announced.

Plenty of other PS4 titles for beer money prices.. although in some cases the downloads are the same price as the games 2nd hand but with all the DLC included.
Some nice retro-esque titles cheap too. I got Hotshot Racing (Think Virtua Racing) and Horizon Chase Turbo for beer money.
Also got Monster Boy (Wonderboy basically) on Switch as the download was 1/5th the price of getting it physical on fleabay.Flinnster2021-11-26 20:56:55

 

[neo-geo-mvs]

Yeah, lots of download game offers if that's your thing. Base.com or Shopto had Guilty Gear Strive Physical release for PS5 half price at £25 but PS4 version still £40. WTF.

 

[big10p]

Agree, some decent download game deals. Got Burnout Paradise on Switch for £9.99. Thanks for the tip on Monster Boy, Flinnster - I'll have that! Already got Horizon Chase Turbo.
