I just get stuff online. Tesco Direct always do halfprice xbox games, which helps sorts xmas presents.

I don't want anything bad enough to queue outside shops or go through any sort of hassle to get it.

XBOX and PS4 are supposed to be doing some good deals this time around (though it’s largely to shift their older model consoles as their new ones have hit the shelves).

Nintendo don’t seem to be shifting their price of the Nintendo Switch at all.
 
Blck Friday was in fact the stock market crash of 24 September 1869 when the price of gold plummeted due to speculating - some people never learn since then we've had Black Tuesday which was the forerunner to the Great Depression in 1929 and Black Monday in 1987.

Nintendo never reduce the price of their consoles , even when their last one wasn't selling at all it stayed the same price

I remember the first year it came here and social media was filled with people fighting over TVs in Asdas up and down the country.

That doesn't happen now. Last year I was in Birmingham city centre by coincidence, it wasn't even overly busy. And to be fair there were some cracking prices in some shops which you just wouldn't find elsewhere (clothes).

They didn’t do midnight opening times last year like the year the fighting happened. They hoped that would calm people down than having to wait in the cold overnight only to not end up getting one and start scrapping.
 
Black Friday FFS<laugh>
Usually it's people who cant afford to rub 2 pennies together buying stuff they don't need or want.

The convo in the pub
"hey John I saved £500 on the telly I just bought"
Fred says "how much did it cost"
John replies "£500 it should have been £1000".
Fred says "but you've got 4 tellys already"
John "yeah but its a bargain mate"
Fred " you are an idiot you've just spent £500 not saved £500"
Jhn " <doh> I never thought of that and me leccy gets cut off tomorrow"

they should change the name to Red Friday <cheers>
