Title says it all, in the last couple years Black Friday hasn't been as exciting in terms of deals, that's why this post, if you stumble upon anything interesting and you think it's worth it, you can share it with the community here.

Seems like black friday is more of an excuse to raise price in September to slightly lower it in Oct/Nov.

I thought thats just me, but I noticed that Black Friday is not as it used to be anymore. Thanks to various services like camel camel and honey I can see that those “discounts” are the actual prices, and that the price bumped few weeks ago to just get back down now for Black Friday.

With these tools and others, that game is just about over. So many consumers are just done with all the BS, and I think a larger shift is coming.

That is very true. My personal Black Friday is whenever I get notified by one of those extensions about the discounts on the products I’m following.
