Prime day

So who's been spending the day jumping on and off devices watching for deals ?
I've been buying up bits and pieces my favourite is the rhubarb gin that's going away as a Christmas present to me plus cables and chargers that will all come in handy as presents or replacements for ones the kids kill 😳

I've seen 2 budgies on there going cheap cheap!!

Seriously though, I've looked through and there are some bargains to be had!

I was looking forward to today, only to be disappointed by the lack of anything of interest to me. There were several things I've had on my wish list that I was holding off on to see if the price would go down today, but none of them were included in what's on offer.

They never are - It's just a con to get more people signed up to Prime imho........

it was the last day of hubby prime trial ( just cancelled)
I've had quite a haul mainly bits and bobs for the birthdays and christmas box.
yes it was amazon prime day
I was careful to stick stuff in my basket then go and check prices there was a few things I didn't buy as the prices weren't good enough, the amazon own brand lightening cables are very good so I was on the look out for them.
we know that my daughter will want a graphing calculator but there was no sign of them so I have my camelcamelcamel watching out for the best price.
overall I am happy with what I got at the price I paid but I wasn't expecting too much so didn't get disappointed.

Had a look last night/this morning to see if there was anything of interest on the upcoming deals and left with the comment 'Amazon's junk....'. Nice to see I wasn't alone in thinking that either. More of the same coming up in November. Though Prime does look a good deal overall on the TV/books/delivery aspect.

The thing I like about Prime is....If I have reason to complain about anything with Amazon they extend my Prime membership by another month. Now that's good service
