Just bought a £7 air ratchet, largely out of perverse interest in how well it will work.

And it came with free a 12v demister fan thing supposedly worth £16... scratchchin

Reviews don't look great for the ratchet.

Lot's of offers on Logitech Mice, nothing on decent Logitech Keyboards (other than the usual £20 ones)

This G815 mechanical keyboard any good? Supposed to be 42% discount (down to £98 from £170)?

Well it seems I had a £10 voucher for buying something from a small business so I've just got a Firestick 4K for £17. That'll do me.

Bought an ACEPC mini PC and got just under £100 off. This one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B089WCSPDZ

Made it cheaper than the lesser specced ones I had been looking at so a no brainer really. It’s not the most powerful, but it only going to sit in our garden room so we can can watch dodgy F1 streams without having to grab my son’s MacBook every race weekend.

Also a long, flat HDMI cable to go with it.

Won a Logitech media keyboard on eBay last night and paid - Amazon have it on offer today for about £7 less than I paid. Ah well….
Can’t help but be impressed with Amazon. Ordered at 05:48 on one of their busiest days of the year, delivered at 17:59

The PC is tiny - 13cm square by 4.5cm tall and weights basically nothing. Really quite impressive!
Thanks for the heads up on this.

Been thinking of getting something similar for a while so that I can move a few 24hr tasks from my main PC, so that can be shut down over night. Never got around to it due to the costs when looking at mini PC's. So ordered it yesterday and have just stared moving things onto it. I've stuck a 1TB SSD into it so plenty of storage space.

It's because they don't pay tax and also pay their couriers minimally.

You probably didn't even need it that quick and could have waited a few days I imagine? but amazon are trying to kill all their competitors by delivering at silly speed.

Hope that helps hehe

Office 365 15 month subscription bought today for 45.99, keeps me ticking over until April 2023. I usually Scrabble about looking and missing deals when it's due to expire.

No worries. I think mine has just about done with Windows updates now - takes forever!

I bookmarked a LG 65NANO866NA TV at £679 and went off to check reviews to make sure it was the right one for me. Returned 30 minutes later and it was £899.

Regardless of the politics (and I agree with you by the way), they have an incredidbly good logistics system. They've got a huge distribution centre near us and it is carnage at certain times of days with all the drivers queuing to get in and out.

There is wireless option! Just doing a quick research my W and S spring goes slack occasionally (think dust underneath, blast of air fixes it for a while) cant justify replacing it.
