Amazon black Friday

PotatoPotato

I got a few things but was mainly after the xbox since i already have a wii and my bro has a ps3.
I got some stuff in my basket that i was gonna check out but i dont feel like it anymore..... i was happy till everything kept queuing on me! :mad:

Why are people moaning about others selling their loot on for a profit? How do you know they didnt perhaps try for say a wii on monday that their son/daughter really wanted but didnt get it, so tried for the xbox fri for profit which theyll then sell on ebay for a profit to buy a full price wii?

I havent done this myself, jsut think theres some sucking on sour grapes... The whole thing seemed more like luck than skill or net speed, they were luckier than you, get over it!

On a lighter note, really enjoyed this whole week, good fun though didnt get much assignments done! Got a bath bomb set, buzz cam, pictureka. All xmas presents for family so im happy

Heres to next year!

Well done Amazon, you're hype really drew customers in. Nothing much to shout about. Limited numbers of higher value things to draw the crowds in. Just to get customers to the site in the first place. If that's the best a so called super retailer can do they can keep it.

I managed to get:

Chocolates
bath bombs
Bread maker

so I am happy.

Would have loved the lego and a wii though.

But surely that was the whole point of this - virtually zero spend, and use other sites like MSE and HUKD to promote your brand. Fantastic marketing, even if the vast majority of customers got dicked around and didn't get any of the so called deals. That's what good marketing managers do. Customers - they always come second.

Really really wanted the wii for my parents for Christmas but unfortunately I missed out

I think it was all a bit dodgy. I had my laptop saying the XBox had 14 secs left to go and on my desktop it had already expired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I enjoyed it.. the first day was dreadful and I got zilch... but I ended the week with

Breadmaker,
Cool Water,
Photoshop elements
Sd card
cordless phone trio
Dab Radio

which are all items that I wanted and will use as a mix for our house and presents.

really wanted the cds, but got neither, would have loved the flip, but wasn't lucky and we don't need it, so its £50 still in our pocket

I'm happy as I got HP Blu Rays, cz bangle, 4 watches, Photoshop and some bath bombs.

Seems to be 2 types of people on here; those like me who are happy to get a few quid off, and those who do nothing but moan about a rip-off!
