Nothing other than food & drink from the supermarket.

And a panini for lunch.

My new Force 10 tent and Gas Tank arrived by postie today though. And I picked up the Gillian Welch Boots CD that I'd preordered from HMV (even got a pound back!) but only released today.

Mrs MR bought six eggs from Roger down the lane. Same price as last Friday. So does that count?

And I bought a loaf that was reduced to 57p. But it was yesterday's loaf so not strictly a black friday deal. Win?

I've bought 3 cups of coffee at €0.30 each.

The stuff I ordered last night that would have been after midnight local time, but still Thursday in US, so that doesn't count, since it's not Black Friday here, only in the US.

Went in on the office full fat Friday sausage and egg butty order. Got my money back with the sandwich as the butty shop were doing a Black Friday offer and two of the people on the order got theirs free . 😀

I bought a cup of piping hot sweet tea from the lady at the cafe on the beach after SupSurfing for 3hours in spectacular sunshine..

I don't mind if I don't win, I won something more precious.

OP you've clearly not been following Kryton's thread.

Bought nothing at all today aside from 4 litres of petrol at about 20% above normal price 😐

Yep, it was reduced to 1p. 😉

Nothing yet bought Black Friday related yet, just some food shopping after nice Xmas lunch at Harvester chain pub.

Still trying to decide between a basic replacement mobile and a Sony Smar****ch for ~£100 total, or buy a fancy Motorola G4 for ~£127 with codes and cashback.

Oh and not to mention whether to buy ~£100s worth of bits from DFS, or wait for their pie and cake sales next week (wiki has links for many of them, brings up a a series of numbers that are tweaks of Fabonacci-thing which now looks extended until Monday instead of ending tonight)

Bought nothing. Even reused a 2nd hand star nut.

Had a Black Friday though - fitting some Pikes bought recently.

Were you looking at those Addis foot activated bins for £10 and kitchen compost containers for £6 in Hamble Lane Tescos megastore as well? 😆

A coffee from Costa. £2.30 - ludicrous for a pretty crap coffee. It was black though.

I was a tiny bit, but decided one of the million Tupperware boxes in the cupboard could do the compost thing and I'd be much happier with a foot activated bin-lid bin designed by Brabantia than a black very plasticy Addis! 😀

I've been to the shops to pick up a prescription and I don't pay for those, so I've spent nothing. However, may pick up a few nice tools on the Crimson Guitars website later
