Hey Everyone,

I know black friday is not really a thing in Aus but, I find myself itching at the prospect of some unicorns before boxing day and wondered if any of you are just as excited for it as I am or if I need help?

Personally, I'm after a good mixer deal like the $99 Breville from BigW from a while ago and potentially an upgrade like the OnePlus 5 to replace my iPhone 5S.

So what unicorns are you looking out for this Black Friday?

    Black Friday unicorns always turn out like this

    I have always found better bargains throughout the year. Black Friday just means returns, refurbs and reprices.

    Black Friday? You mean boxing day.

    I find that the best bargains are not always advertised widely and can appear at the most random times.

    Hopefully some DDR4 desktop RAM.

    Prices are through the roof, right now.

    I haven't had a good Boxing Day shopping spree since I was about 15. I am now disillusioned and don't bother trying. All hype no bargains.

    What's better than Christmas in July?

    Christmas in November.

    Merged from Black Friday + Cyber Monday - What's Your Plan?

    As the title says, what's your plan for this Black Friday / Cyber Monday?
    For the ones who are going to shop, where are you going to shop? Where to find good deals? What are you planning to buy?

    I've never been into this annual 'craze' before, so just wondering how fellow Ozbargainers are going to spend this annual event.
    Tips/suggestions are welcome.

      Get absolutely hammered and order some strippers.

        "Blow" some cash!

    • sugardumpling on 23/11/2017 - 06:10

      I plan to do some online shopping over the weekend! and be sure to check 'Black Friday Deals' page in OZB

    • mr fox on 23/11/2017 - 08:22

      Hoping to get some cheap SCUBA gear from overseas.

    • tassieeagle on 23/11/2017 - 09:08

      Want a switch and a few xmas presents for the kids. Waiting to see if eb games / ebay / Amazon? have some decent sales….

  • TrailerTrash on 23/11/2017 - 21:00

    Nothing huge announced yet.. will watch closely overnight.

  • Punkboy on 23/11/2017 - 22:22

    Anyone know of a way to buy from BestBuy from here and get delivered? They don't ship to freight forwarder addresses.

    • guster33 on 25/11/2017 - 10:17

      I'm pretty sure there are a few services like shopmate from AusPost. They are expensive though like 25$ and up so I wouldn't recommend it.

  • Ladsos on 24/11/2017 - 00:30

    just went into EB games and they have 50% off hats, t-shirts and socks

    • BigLeviathan on 24/11/2017 - 06:50

      Pfft…not even a nintendo switch console sale?

    Been very underwhelmed so far. Not a single item to tempt me.

  • Rosace on 24/11/2017 - 16:05

    Anyone found a decent deal for a Kitchenaid stand mixer?

    • hamza23 on 24/11/2017 - 16:23

      This is the only deal posted but not sure if it is any good.

      • Rosace on 24/11/2017 - 17:55

        Thanks, I’m looking more for a kitchenaid one. The one on the link is a sunbeam one.

        • hamza23 on 24/11/2017 - 18:14

          Oops sorry my bad, for some reason thought I read Kitchenaid.

  • WhiteEvo6 on 24/11/2017 - 21:58

    Pretty uneventful day in my opinion. I didn’t spend a dollar. Anyone else think today was average?

  • Polde on 25/11/2017 - 00:26

    Was hoping for some 1440p gaming monitors but doesn't seem to be any. Hopefully some Xmas deals start popping up

  • auna on 25/11/2017 - 01:41

    Only catch with 50% off B&O selected models and EB Games was tempting today. I already have headphones so only EB got any real money from me.

  • [Deactivated] on 25/11/2017 - 10:58

    Some retailers are really taking the p-p-p-proverbial.
    Here's a great example: https://www.facebook.com/Ryderwear/?hc_ref=ARQI1VrNE4fbcY9Gl…
    They have a banner headline "Up to 80% off everything".
    In fact there are one or two items only and the rest are around 50%.
    I have bought Ryderwear since it was a tiny warehouse at the back of my gym on the Gold Coast.
    Now they are global and a resorting to cheap tricks.
    I have now changed to buying my kit from SQD Athletica. https://www.sqdathletica.com/black-friday-sale
    It is seriously good gear-and it's Australian.

    My unicorns? Since we are picking everything from the US I am waiting for 4th july.
