    Why is is called Black friday anyway? Usually they use Black to mean something Horrible. Mmmm maybe its Horrible for Apple as they are cutting their profits or maybe its the day MS infultrated Apple's core (lol) .

    Yes, but Amazon don't engrave them and my daughter wanted her's engraved. So, being able to get one for a similar price to Amazon but with the engraving sounds like a good deal to me.

    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die


  • Finding cheap Apple products? Bet there isn't an app for that.
  • Yeah, not spectacular deals but I suppose better than nothing so.

    Noticed they haven't discounted the Macbook at all so the Macbook Pro 13" is only £28 more.

    I got pink iPod nano for daughter earlier this morning, I wanted it engraved so went via Apple. Saved £7.00 which will buy some stocking fillers for her. Every few ££ saved is good.

    Thank you

    katies mum,

    So glad you got it. ;) :beer:

    Not a penny off the Mac mini, though. :(

    Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:

    As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
    you'd now be better off living in one.

    Black Friday is the nearest Friday to Thanksgiving. Doesn't really translate to the UK though does it.
