I know, I know, I'm basically an axe murderer.
I'm looking for a particular sized standing deck. 120cm x 80cm. Tonnes of 120x 60 but I need the extra depth (oh,er) to move the monitor back on the table a bit. I've found a couple on Amazon but I've delayed ordering in case the price moves. I'm not hopeful though, I've not bought anyone on Amazon Prime Day for years to be honest.
What are my fellow axe murderers looking for? Apart from axes.
I'll check the electric toothbrush pricing because the last thread about them convinced me I should look to get one. I'll also check my 'wish list' to see if the couple of bits on there have been reduced at all.
Lots of sellers have the motorised bit separately, with adjustable width. Then just buy a wooden / MDF top of your choice from say IKEA or local timber / kitchen unit supplier.
A day in the hills far from any device?
Stress free delivery for Cougar. That's all I want for amazon prime day(s).
A lot of 'prime days' are simply discounting unpopular or slow moving stock, so it's daft to just browse in the hope of finding a random bargain (most of the time).
As the OP wants something specific then find a few varients of what you want, add them to your wishlist/save for later, or whatever it's called.., and check them again on deal day/week.
I actually got a really good deal on a silent night matress... but as always.. always look for the same thing/same model elsewhere to compare prices... just because amazon have reduced something from £200 to £100, doesn't mean it sells for more than about about £100 all year round via other retailers.

Yep, that was a solution I looked at but it's a bit of a pain at the moment as I'm car less.

Yep, that's my cunning plan! Lol I'm not expecting a deal on the ones I'm looking at to be honest but we'll see.
I usually wait until after prime day when the same item will be cheaper
Dont forget camelcamelcamel
I'm hoping for Chinese knockoff versions of established products with stupid brandnames like GERYFORCE and XXILKFDS.
I know, I know, I’m basically an axe murderer.
It's like an orange on a toothpick.
Oh thanks for the reminder, was looking to get some noise cancelling headphones this week or next, totally didn't realise there was a prime day coming up!

@Poopscoop I have this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09J1ZNTNV
Currently at £189 (259 - 70 voucher) I've had it a year and it's been excellent.

Yep, that bad boy is one of the ones on my list. Glad to hear it's given you no issues. Is the wooden top a one piece affair? The cheapest ones use dowels to hold sections together.
Cheers!
Cheers for the info mate, really appreciated. <Thumbs up>
I quite fancy a decent set of over ear headphones, but only if the price is right.
I've been very very impressed with Anker Soundcore stuff. I prefer the Sundcore Liberty 4 NC ear buds to some much pricier Samsung Buds Pro2 that I also have.
So would like some of the Soundcore Q45s probably.

Bastard. (-:
was looking to get some noise cancelling headphones
I started a thread recently asking about headphones, then immediately went and bought some anyway so asked for the thread to be closed. I bought Soundcore earbuds and they are astonishingly good for the price, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Noise cancelling is handled in software, so you can have NC for on the train or Transparent for when your partner is talking to you. (Or you can have noise cancelling for when your partner is talking to you...) There's a routine which claims to analyse your ear canal which is surely a gimmick, but it goes "does this sound better than that?" and sets up the EQ accordingly.
I don’t think it would do her skin any good if she did, it’s not known for it’s moisturising properties !!
Damned good at accidently setting your hands alight more than once during Covid though, when I used it before lighting a gas hob.
For a split second I couldn't work out what my hand had a faint blue aura around it, I just assumed I was holy... Till the heat registered.

Gah! The Flexisport standing table has just dropped price the second Prime day hit £50... It already had a £50 voucher deal on it too... But it's in all black. I didn't want that colour!
£100 off though, making it the same price as a cheap and nasty one I was also eyeing up! Sods law, normally anything im interesting in never drops in price.
No, black is fine, black is fine, black is fine.
Damn you Amazon, damn you to hell!
A good deal on this multifunction charging/data cable, it comes in 15cm and 30cm lengths. I’ve had one on my desk for a while and it’s handy for all the crap I have to charge up, no issues with build quality unlike the cheap knockoffs

Our old Kindle Fire 10 seems to be dying a slow and painful death. It's just for browsing and watching, so straight replacement (with latest model)? Upgrade to the 11, or would a Samsung Tab A9+ be a better option for some reason?
Quick Look
Lightning deals are hilariously shit

Sony 700 ear buds - no cheaper
Circulon oven tray - no cheaper
Craghopper Kiwi Pro Trousers - no cheaper
Hydrosoft Salt - no cheaper

There must be something I do need cheaper ?
Sony XM4 headphones are cheaper than anywhere else and cheaper than they've ever been.
Lego Dune Ornithopter £99 - again cheaper than anywhere else:
Columbia waterproof trainers £5 less than I paid 4 weeks ago, very comfy: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Columbia-Mens-Konos-Waterproof-Canyon/dp/B0CLWG875T

The josephjoseph sink caddy is the cheapest I've seen it in the 2 years it's been sat in my wishlist.
Other than that there's nothing screaming out to me as a bargain. Most things in my wishlist are the same price as usual but with a "prime deals" red logo next to them.
I am not fussed about Prime offers as they are generally pretty disappointing
what do you mean, the Lavazza coffee I normally buy is a whole 1p cheaper than what I normally pay!! (although if you believe the headline "big deal day" price it's apparently 15% off :rolleyes:
Other than that there’s nothing screaming out to me as a bargain.
Ahem.
Well i've just bought a Bosch kettle as the old cheap, erratic one blew the fuses in my house during a Teams call.
I bet this will be in prime day half price now.
Oh well, the cat food worked out cheaper at ZooPlus !
I'm looking at a Amazon fire 4K dongle, which is down to it's normal cheap price (can be had cheaper if your willing to wait) but the Amazon fire stick (std) is just £16.99 which is the cheapest it's ever been (buy as an awesome christmas stocking filler?)
As for Chewkw's IT Duster CompuClearner being down from £50 to £40, that's the price we paid 4 years ago.. why the **** are they more expensive now and not cheaper?
Randomly as part of another thread, this is a genuine good deal although I’m sure I paid considerably less about 5 years ago
linky thing not working

I bought that boot dryer for £60 a few years ago and it's been worth every penny. Works brilliantly and a bargain at that price.
Decent price reductions on both Eufy security cameras and Honeywell Evohome controller, both of which I've been looking out for and waited until Prime day for.
Not enough to go buy one, but if you're in the market for such things then Prime days / Black Friday likely to be some of the cheaper times to buy
No, black is fine, black is fine, black is fine.
Damn you Amazon, damn you to hell!
That's how it's supposed to work.
a) clear out the version no one is buying
b) clear out your bank account before some other annual event does.
Prime day - buy stuff before the winter holidays wipe you out
Black Friday - same but last attempt
January sales - clearing out any spare cash before you realize January payday is a log time off.
Summer sales - you've not been on holiday yet have you, how about spending those savings on a new sofa?

The cleaning fluid is just isopropyl alcahol, no need to buy ‘Lemon scented gamer edition’ CPU cleaning fluid.
LOL! Yes, I agree. Will just get the generic isopropyl.
@a11y what's the fit like on those Columbia trainers? Narrow or wide or?
Soundcore boom 2 speaker. I have the old one, and it's so good that it justifies buying the new one. I'm sure that makes sense
I'm contemplating one of those Amazon Firestick tablets but, it seems, they don't use Google's Play Store. So how can I check whether apps I would want will actually work on the tablet?
I'm after fairly mainstream stuff: YouTube, YouTube music, BBC iPlayer, BBC Sounds, Channel 4, ITVX...
@a11y what’s the fit like on those Columbia trainers? Narrow or wide or?
I'd say relatively normal, possibly on the narrow side. I've got fairly narrow feet, often need additional/thicker insoles in many shoes, but not in those. Sizing fairly normal too: I'm a solid UK11 in those but vary between EU46-47 in Shimano SPDs for example.

It’s possible to sideload Playstore. Been years since I’ve done it, but a quick google would see you right. I’m hardly the most techie person out there and I found it easy enough
Kindle fire 11”
Oof!
Thank god it's not the sit in cabinet, otherwise I might have 'accidentally' bought that....
Absolutely loved that as a kid.
My OH bought the Apple air pods shown a few posts up. Seems a good price.
I've just bought an 11sp Di2 XT 8050 SGS rear mech for £127, although not sure it was in the Prime deals.
Cheapest previously was Merlin @ £150, so if it is genuine, a bit of a bargain it seems.
So Fed Ex are delivering the table I ordered off Amazon.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
Going by past performance, in my area at least, there was bloody good reason they were chosen as the courier compsny that dumped Hanks on a deserted island with a load of parcels! 😉
