For the wheel, gears and shifter ?

Which site ?

I've only looked a couple of times but it went up to £149 on Amazon and £179 on Currys

T’was Amazon and the wheel and pedals combo on a deal of the day. The prices were all over the place this morning, I ordered at 10:58am.

The package with the shifter was £130 at the same time but as the shifter is h-pattern and not sequential I wasn’t really interested.

Also realised that I’m going to need a playseat challenge to go with it, has anyone seen any price better than £160?

You don't necessarily need that. There's a couple of threads on setups in another subforum - video games I think. Someone "upgraded" their old Ikea chair.

Not tech as such but as it's a car forum.... carparts4less have got 20% off this weekend, if you need parts for say, a car.

I found good deals on robot vacs previously, I just forgot where, lol, but I think I posted it here somewhere. I'll post it here if I find it again. haha. We got our roomba during last year's cyber monday. If you're considering getting a robot vac, it can't replace our upright vacs I'm telling you, but it can definitely do quick fixes. I just noticed ours seemed to be a little noisy, just wondering how other robot vacs sound like when they start cleaning because I swear, ours has intolerable noise.

I've been keeping an eye on the price of the Tom Tom 5200 the last few weeks. Halfords have had it 'Priced Matched' all that time with Amazon and it has hovered between £240, £269.99 and for about the last week at £245.90.
Today, actually being Friday, I've just looked at Halfords website and it's still saying 'Price Matched' but is now listed for £299.99!!! (Amazon has it still for £245.90)

Any TV recommendations? I'm after a 55 inch to replace my ageing LG. Richer Sounds and Amazon seem to be the best places so far.

Ended up biting the bullet and buying the tv at full price (well, they said it was £500 off, but it's been like that from before BF)

arriving today...

65" Samsung QLED and a 'no gap' wall mount bracket. didn't get much change out of £2k - Still, we don't buy TVs that often..

The last tv we bought was in 2008 - Panasonic 47" 1080 Plasma - it's never put a foot wrong but felt it just looked dated now with its 1 inch bezel and non-smart functions.

Plus, the heat it created was enough to warm a small village, a nightmare in the summer. #FirstWorldProblems
