anything...

Black Friday is mostly about cheating customers by "lowering" prices that were previously raised for no apparent reason while most customers didn't bat an eye since "that's the way it is".

It's basically fraudulence but difficult to do anything about.

Some web pages here show the lowest ever price on current products because its obviously been a problem in the past with doing that. Then again customers should be aware imo.

The thing to do is not buy. If consumers develop a backbone, things would change. Good luck with that.

You look up products before you walk into traps like that. Like products with serials or whatever that is very close to the proper one. Those are black friday traps.

Otherwise it's nice getting christmas presents cheaper.

No interest in the Friday of color, I did however buy myself a new phone last month (S21 at ~half the price) to finally replace the ancient dying S4, so there's that. 2022 for the new PC, or perhaps even 2023

Same...Wife is already giving me the side eye for going to get lumber to make a L shaped bench for our front stoop and coming home also with a new router table, set of router bits and enough extra lumber to build a tablesaw workstation.

So I have spent both my birthday and christmas money for myself already I suspect by her opinion.

Plenty Pi 4's around, just the new Zero 2 W's are flying off the shelves, constantly sold out everywhere. Managed to snag a couple @ release, and wish I'd got more, but they are limiting 1 per customer now.
