Amazon black Friday

Rowan126

Wished I got any of the major deals (particularly the Sony TV) but no luck. Really hope I get a change of fortune. Over on HUKD, someone got the TV in their basket even though they arn't going to buy it! So infuriating!

I got Chuggington, omlette pan, sd card, 2 toothbrushes, notebook, and a few more bits and pieces that I popped back on the shelf after a change of heart.

It was an ok sale truth be told

My haul for the week:

2 x Adobe Photoshop elements 9
Box of chocs
5 x bath bomb sets (think I went a bit overboard)
Philips cordless phones
Kenneth Cole black leather watch
Scrabble trickster
SD memory card
Spirit pink watch

= too much money spent.

Well chuffed that I bagged:
Beatles Box Set
Lego
Shallow Le Creuset 26cm casserole
Phones
Gave up the Kitchenaid after much deliberation...my Krups is still going strong *touches wood*

Same time, same place next year everyone??

Well what a waste of time that was - there were only two items i was really interested in, the sony camera and (like thousands of others) the Toshiba 37" TV. Did toy with the Nigella books but had already bought Nigella Kitchen as a gift for my SIL.

Frankly I feel the whole queuing system was a con, and I really don't understand why people would want to spend time putting things in their basket with no intention of purchase. Some of the tat they were selling looked like they were just trying to offload old stock too.

Hmmm that takes the pee! I would have loved the Sony TV but alas, it wasn't meant to be.

Isn't it funny that no one (please correct me if needed) on this thread for a Wii, PS3 or Xbox?

I managed to get and purchase:

Heroes DVD boxset
Kitchen Aid mixer
Scrabble

Quite happy with that and my purse has stayed fairly unharmed.

Couldn't face coming back on here til now to see everyone who got what I didn't get. Had a quick scan through some pages and it seems not many of you were that lucky! I had 2 iPods, a computer and a laptop on the go manned by my faithful, fully trained assistants and all we got was a couple of waiting in queues that expired.
I've gotta say though, this wasn't too bad for a first amazon uk black Friday. I hope they do it again next year and learn by what's gone on and improve on it by doing things like the wait list that the .com site do.
I'll be back next year. I managed to get the Lego, chocs, nappies, cozy coupe, twin peaks set, breadmaker and the smart trike. All things that were wanted and will be used, eaten and loved
I'm glad it's over though- there have been some questionable and untimely mealtime offerings in my house this week because of this lol!
