Pre Black Friday price increase?!
On 4 Oct Dreams had the TEMPUR CoolTouch™ Sensation Supreme Mattress for £1599. I thought I would wait ‘til Black Friday to see if it was reduced.

OnBuy.com
I've seen something I want to buy on this site, but I'm not confident as never used it before. Any tips/feedback to encourage or discourage the purchase. It's a set of Christmas lights at a very good price, if that makes any difference to the replies. Thank you.
Any experience with Shein?
As per the title really, do any of you knowledgeable people have any experience with the clothng site Shein please? I've seen some items on there that I like the look of but they have very mixed reviews.
