Black Friday deals?
Discussion
Not spotted a general BF thread.
It is past the time when I should replace my faithful 2014 MBPr, so a hefty investment in the next couple of weeks could be happening…..& MrsMikeIOW has a decidedly dodgy but slightly more recent Air: the Genius Bar held little hope for it, so also up for replacement.
Trade-in didn’t look to be worth anything….
If anyone spots decent deals on a 1TB/16GB 14” Pro, and likely a decent Air - 512GB/16GB, please lob ideas here.
I’ve not yet done the research to know which chip, but I’d prefer the least obsolescence, so likely M4, I guess.
Will keep en eye on Costco, Apple, Very…
What else is anyone hunting down?

We've had our eyes on a particular Samsung 43" TV for a while and watched it gradually wobble down to £400. When it dropped to £374 a few days ago we bought it. It immediately (i.e. within minutes) increased to £390 then dropped to £374 for Black Friday.
Other than that, nothing much has excited us - or so I thought. Amazon has just delivered a 'mystery' package - which could be nice, it's my birthday tomorrow.

After much agonising over a gaming laptop for my son, I bought a £799 Asus TUF 15 with Ryzen 7 processor, 16Gb RaM, 1 Tb storage and RTX4060 graphics. Other "offers" had less storage or RAM
Overkill for his use but should last. That was 20% off and a Logitech G502 Hero gaming mouse was slashed to 26 quid with 80% off.
(Both Amazon)

Noticed that Hotels.com (via TopCashBack for an extra 11% 
) have some hotels on deals - we have just booked a couple for our ski trip next March.
(note Hotels.com always give 10 or 11% back for bookings 2 months ahead on TCB).
Not seen any LeShuttle deals yet....
but on transport - for anyone heading to the Isle of Wight - Red Funnel have their annual 1/3rd off deal now (book by Dec 6th).

I'll buy a Nintendo Switch OLED if there's an irresistable deal out there. Not paying £289.00 for this, but at £250.00 I would:

I need a laptop. Not dog slow like the Chromebook that I got free with my Pixel 3a 5 years ago 
Just need it to do my accounts in comfort, ie in the lounge or at work and look at RightMove, Autotrader and PH, of course.
I have an iMac upstairs but it's from 2011 and it's cold up there.

Two things for me (so far) but both were pre-planned as I knew there could be better discounts during this period and only one of those is from Amazon.

Not a computer or a gadget but…
Tefal Oleo chip pan reduced from £164.99 to £89.49
I’ve love my home made chips and have had this on my watch list for some time, it’s been around £140 - £164 for a while now and I’ve never seen it this cheap. I’ve ordered it so some can give it to me first Xmas. Yes, that’s how much I love my chips
