Yes! I was thinking this earlier. I’ve been getting 4 emails a day from the same companies. It’s so frustrating

On Friday, I checked my emails at 7am prior to going out for a bit.

When I got back at 10.30am I had 546 emails.

Trouble is because I'm a comper I have to skim every one in case there's a "winner" email amongst them.

There wasn't.

blacklabrador ouch that’s got to hurt seeing that amount I thought mine was bad. Hope you find a winner soon but not that many great deals around unless you really need something and saves you a few squid.

I'm happy to get emails about real Black Friday deals where there is geniune discounting over normal prices but of course much of it is fake deals. I noticed many of the Amazon prices went up before Black Friday on 'reuse' and other parts of the site. I noticed some items that had the 30% off on the reuse site early in Black Friday had it removed later in the day. The PC cases I bought for around £20 were now £27 later on. In the end I bought 5 cases with 2 going back due to damage to the cases even though they were sold as new. I suspect the cases will return to 'reuse' and still be sold as 'as new' despite the minor damage. However I got 3 good out of 5 and returned the orders that were the most expensive with the broken cases. I'm very pleased with what I got but it was very messy. I've bought tons of stuff on aliexpress over both singles day and then black friday/cyber monday. I bought a Sharp microwave that has a full price of £200 for about £105 brand new which I'm pleased with, as a Christmas present for my mother.

I am the sort of person that does skim all the black friday emails but most are a complete waste of time.

martinlufc5637 Quidco seemed to be the worst offenders for me, I think I got about 6 in one day.
