    Fighting with someone just so you might make a small profit on eBay with some crap tv? Is that what this world has come too haha.
    Why fight when you can shop online? :confused:

    I had to wait to get in Curry's site but been in now the past half hour and i got straight in PC World. There are quite a lot of reduced items (859 in Curry's) but they aren't flogging 500 quid telly's for 50 quid or anything like that!

    Totally agree with you, my daughter has just got home, she finished her shift and went to our local small town Asda with her workmates.
    Although there was no violence they were told to go home after two hours of queuing :o another horrible import from the USA it seems :(

    That's what I thought especially with Amazon doing it's flash sales too, the only deal I was kinda intrested in was GAME's xbox one with 4 games for £300 which is a absolute steal but the website is still down and will probably be down all morning!

    Couldn't agree more, some of those videos are sickening. Was gonna take a trip to Asda today to try find a bargain, think I will give it a miss if its full of idiots fighting to get £50 off a telly.

    I'm afraid so (bib) plus an indication of spiralling prices and meagre to non-existent pay increases.

    I've been looking for a Garmin Satnav but they have none with any decent reductions. I did spot an in-car DVR Cam at £50 though and the spec looks good........but none available!

    Plenty of 1000 quid big screen telly's knocked down to 250. Seems everyone must have one in each room now! So common! :D

    Yes looks like anything worth having is going quick while the tat remains for the walking dead to moan and tussle over, like someone said earlier most people are buying to put on eBay too stupid to realise ebay will be amassed with this tat come next week and make no profit.

    Police and Ambulances called to sort out the scrappers! My God! :o
    In another in Lea Valley, London, there were reports that police and ambulances had been called to the store amid alleged disputes between customers. They were reportedly desperate to get their hands on discounted coffee machines.
    All the folk in the photos look a bit somewhat rough too. Lots of hoody types and overweight women. :D

    Well, the Tesco direct website is actually working now, but if you click the Black Friday Deals on their main page, it just takes you to basically a store locator page of stores that will be participating. No deals online that I can see. :confused:

    Why are people so obsessed with TV's? They must have time on their hands - I barely get to see the news.

    I don't give a stuff about bargain hunters either online or engaging in fisticuffs on the high street. But it's a pain for the ordinary shopper and for those who actually need to shop online because they can't get out.

    Black Friday - just a reason to shift Boxing Day sales crap a month earlier! Brilliant marketing gimmick. I bet Tesco execs are rubbing their hands with glee in their executive canteen this lunchtime!

    Absolutely shameful, whoever it was that grabbed that man around the neck and threw him to the floor should have been arrested!>:(:(

    The man thrown to the floor was clearly doing something wrong as the women were shouting at him to go away and stop doing whatever he was doing as there was a woman lying on the ground. Respect to the guy in blue for dragging the arsehole away from those women.

    Garbage quality 32" Blaupunkt TVs!

    Sad sad people

    The discount was next to nothing as well normally those rebadged no name TVs only sell for just over £100 quid anyway then Tesco play the one branch 28 day crazy price hike trick after the 28 days they can say something like £200 off when in reality they have only knocked of a tenner.
