Black Friday 2021

[ElektraWintour]

No, buy ASAP if you have your eye on a particular one! I waited two years to get mine because it kept going out of stock in October kept thinking they were waiting for stock but nope. I don’t know any deals, sorry.

My issue is I want a 7ft pre lit tree but don’t want to pay £90 for it

Kate spade have a good sale if anyone is after a bag

May be due to being able to fulfil orders, website capacity and not crashing, maintain stock levels with lorry driver shortages/importing stock, deliveries on time as it's not a rush to get them out in one weekend (some places I've ordered from previously had items cancelled and delivery not next day/not even being dispatched for days etc) and anticipation for being short-staffed in warehouses etc with Covid?

Makes a lot of sense doing it this way to be fair, a lot less pressure on staff.

Thanks, yes it does make a lot more sense when you put it like that! I just didn’t want to start buying if suddenly there were better sales nearer the date itself.

Boots has been brilliant this year. Their star gifts are 50% off at the moment and some really good discounts on other bits but the mobile site is painfully slow if you were looking for electricals and cosmetic bits.

Probably won't bother with clothing this year as thats usually just stock they couldn't sell through the year but most places would be advertising now if it was a specific date to drum up interest so if you buy now you should be fine

Is it worth going in store do you think?

Want to get a stick vacuum for my parents. Can’t see any great deals atm

I feel like there’s hardly any household electrical deals on at the moment

Don't be fooled by the Black Friday Deals offered by the mobile networks, especially if you are on an older RPI contract.

By 'upgrading' to a Black Friday deal, you'll gain CPI + 3.9% annual increases, plus you'll also lose EU (or on Three selected Worldwide) roaming perks.

Typically, the CPI +3.9% annual increases are over 3x that of older RPI contracts.

For example, if your contract is:

£20pm - RPI = 28p p/m, CPi+3.9% = 90p p/m
£40pm - RPI = 56p p/m, CPi+3.9% = £1.80 p/m
£60pm - RPI = 84p p/m, CPi+3.9% = £2.70 p/m

With CPI currently running at a 10 year high, plus if this figure does not decrease by Feb/March next year, you could see a near 8% increase on your bill, in the earlier part of next year. You'll only get the Black Friday deal rate until March/April next year, before the increases kick in.

You should stay on the contract as long as possible, bartering with the network if they try to force you off the contract. If they won't budge on offering a good price, then shift network.

On many networks (especially those that still refuse to split the handset and SIM plan costs), you are better off buying a phone outright from a third party, then going SIM only with the network of your choice.

Ohh that's good to know..I've always wanted one and at £40 I could justify treating myself

Get it now while you can.

 

[Scotblock]

I’m looking for a new electric toothbrush if anyone comes across good ones.

Hobbshave started 25% off
Joanie has 40% off
No discounts needed

Spotlight Oral Care have their sonic ones half price. I got the pride one down from £120 to £60 and their toothbrushes are excellent.

 

[Yel]

90%+ are a waste of space. But a few are worth it. I could do with a new nutribullet, got one a few years ago for £30 and that was a deal.

 

[no-no]

Just done an asos order as there’s an extra 15% off BF sale.

The Lichfield situation is really pissing me off now, though.

 

[candyland_]

I’ve only taken advantage of Pandora’s 20% off (I’m sure it’s usually 25%) and I saved £50 on an iPad Pro.

Nike have 25% off but it excludes Air Force - the trainers that my daughter has asked for

 

[Rainbow_rhythms]

Agree that the shark cordless is amazing

Which one is the best? I desperately need a new one! I hate my Dyson cordless

 

[Saddlesoap]

I noticed this, I was thinking of getting a pair too. Might be worth checking Schuh or Office?

No look in either unfortunately

Never mind, I’ll keep looking

Doesn't help if you want them for Christmas, but the after Christmas sale is often pretty good.

 

[coconochanel]

I got my OH a Xmas gift that was £20 off so I was pleased with that.

 

[noseybirdxo]

The Lichfield delivery situ is so annoying

I noticed this was a thing but didn’t really understand it. Is there problems with it?

Thank you, I think I’ll wait til then and have a browse. Can’t make my mind up which ones I want anyway!

Yeah I think it's only worth it if you genuinely need something and it's a genuine discount. I got a huge discount on a Nespresso machine 8 years ago and it's still working brilliantly.

I’m trying to tell myself reasons why to not buy a Marc Jacobs snapshot bag is with 30% off
