    Does anyone know how long you have to wait in a queue for?

    if you are waiting in a queue, then its already sold out

  • The thing I'd like to know is how many people are posting (on amazon) that they have won 2 or even 3 of the items that come up for sale? Are they lying? I have won the Lego which will make a great x-mas presant for my nephew but have lucked out on other things. The photoshop I clicked on straight away but was 'sold out' and yet others have said they clicked on it after losing out on the other items and won??

    I think Amazons plan was quite good but the deals overall are quite poor and the way it is working is not great, but hey, we all like a bargin if we can get it :)
  • Hi,

    Did it come with a nunchuck as well?
  • The wii and wii fit is still available at Tesco item number 901-7673

    £169 - less the £5 off discount code thats floating around so £164 and 4% quidco as well

    Wii = sprts resort and sports + fit plus and the board, picked mine up today. They have not listed it very well but is the best price for everything.


    Did it come with nunchuck as wel?l
  • I managed to get Take That album and tried to get Susan Boyle too but no luck (I assume it is one item per customer at one time or maybe I was just too slow!).

    Do bear in mind that the price on product page doesn't change. You would need to click "Add to basket" directly from Black Friday landing page.
  • Wow, that took like 10 seconds - waaah, oh or faster broadband!
    If my words are missing letters then please excuse me....my keyboard is a tad dodgy!!
  • bit cheeky - they put Wii consoles on without any warning. wasn't there as a mystery item with the not so cryptic tagline at 6pm but forums (and 'sold out' filter on Amazon deal page) show they were on sale at 8pm. so there's very little chance of an xbox if that's how they're playing this silly game. even if it were possible - not going to spend all day on their site hoping an xbox will suddenly appear! still unimpressed :(
  • they've said in the press there were "Customers were online and ready for the start of 'Black Friday Deals Week', snapping up the thousands of albums that were available at just £1 in a matter of seconds." I think the trouble being that if you were in a shop you could see the other people there but online you can't see the thousands huddled around their computers trying to pick these offers up.

    There was a mystery item (the wii) with a cryptic message about 'the last piggy' (cried 'wee wee wee), which is how I knew to check back at 8pm. I think they might do a similar deal with the xbox and the flip camcorder (just a hunch) so watch out for hints towards those. xxx
