Black Friday & Cyber Monday 2022

Even yodel are doing 7 days + overtime at the moment… I just a couple of hours ago got notification they’re delivering an item at 5pm.

Suspect they’re all snowed under with the number of deliveries so are just doing what they can.

Good luck with your parcel :eyes::sweat_smile:

Just had an Amazon purchase delivered by Royal Mail which was supposed to be delivered on Tuesday. I didn’t even know Royal Mail delivered on a Sunday! I suppose they are trying to catch up from the industrial action, though…

They’ve done parcels on a Sunday for ages. Nothing to do with IA.

Well, my parcel has been sitting on my front step in the rain for a couple of hours. Praying what’s inside is wrapped in a plastic bag.

Oh ffs not good :person_facepalming: yeah hopefully got a decent lining of plastic inside and it’s still there

I too, had Amazon deliver a parcel today that I wasn’t expecting until Monday. Have only just got home and, luckily for me, they managed to post it through the letterbox. It’s a book so I would’ve been fuming if it had been left outside to soak for checks six hours.

Cyber Monday - any wild stuff been spotted? :eyes:

In related news I was not a fan of this attempt by Domino’s :upside_down_face:

You’d need to use Flex to buy Domino’s, even at it’s discounted rates :rofl:

That just sounds like a really bad attempt at flirting :face_vomiting:

Aye, it’s so expensive!

It is. It’s insanely expensive

Message them on Twitter asking for discount. They’ll send you a promotional code to get 50% off no minimum spend and can be used on everything.

:eyes: if you’re wondering how I know, I’ve done it twice when I got the craving :rofl: just word it nicely to them :grinning:

So I was expecting my monitor to arrive today.

Checked the status and it says that it in production but will still be delivered today :person_shrugging:.

After a quick support email, I’ve been told that the expected dispatch date is… 12 June 2023!!!

What the actual F!!! :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

A quick hunt around and I’ve now upgraded to an even bigger 32" LG from Costco.

I would have been quite impressed if they got it from in production to your doorstep in a weekend :smile:

It’s a better choice, 27 inch is too small for 4K imo

I think you’re talking about £20 these days (?) and they’ve recently bolted on a delivery fee for the lolz.

Edit: the first few delivery prices:

But there is an 8.99 any size offer today though, so that’s nice.

It’s actually better specced too: 95% P3 rather than SRGB and brighter too.

Doesn’t have USB C, but I have a separate dock so no big deal.

On a per person basis, takeaway pizza is still pretty good bang for the buck.

We usually do Papa Johns and you often get an offer along the lines of spend £30+ and get half off.

Edit: I always pick up myself as you get better offers.

What percentage sRGB was the other one? 95% P3 is the same as about 125% sRGB which most monitors will manage.

Make sure you download a colour profile for it so you can get that range though!

It was only 99% SRGB.
