    After a week haven't you realised how !!!!!! the queue is? Most the times you are in the queue, someone who has just opened a new window has clicked 'claim now' and got the item ahead of you!

    Anyway after that rant, can anyone recommend a new TV to play my new £50 xbox360 on?

    I was trying for the 40 inch Sony as we've been looking for a while. Didn't get the sony so plumped for this one:

    Really wanted one of the TVs but all I got was the Xbox, Lego and a Wii. Rubbish. I reckon my best bet now is to sell it on Ebay and put the difference towards a Toshiba 40" TV from Amazon.

    just checked out heroes and poirot , added the mariocart for £19 , and a steering wheel for £1.99, dumped the phillips light up alarm clock after reading the reviews , dumped the mp3 player , paid for the candle things and the watch on a necklace , reasonably happy , but theres no way i would have bought those things without the black friday lure

  • You will get about £130 on eBay for the Xbox, that's where mine is going next week for some extra cash although i might be tempted to keep it and sell mine since my 360 is the white one which i got on release, so quite old now and i really like the new one.

    i would have loved a wii or xbox but wasn't lucky enough. I managed to get the lego (i probably wouldn't have bought otherwise), and i have a watch and perfume in my basket to check out with

    eta: bit sad to see people are planning to profit on things, would have made some people who couldn't afford more very happy :(
