We got a 6D MkII to replace our 6D and a new 85mm 1.4 lens. Holding out for another year or so to see how the Canon mirrorless cameras shake out.
Dyson v8 Absolute
A new 4ah Ryobi battery, charger and table saw. Not sure how well the Ryobi table saw will work out but it was $50 so I'm not out much
A bunch of 4k movies

i use redpocket check out the plans on ebay for the year, they use what ever tower you want tmobile verizon att sprint. Verizon is 190 a year for 2gb/unlimitedtxt/talk per month.

they have some one month plans to try out for a discount for blackfriday sale i believe.

I've been stuck on Verizon for quite some time - mostly because competitor's service sucks in my area.

This redpocket really looks interesting though - Currently I'm paying $95/month for 2 lines, @ 6GB of data (shared between the 2 lines). Looks like with Redpocket I can get 3GB of Verizon data on EACH line for $30/line = $60 total? Do you know if there is additional fees or way to get it to discount further?

Black Friday 2018:

A diet Pepsi at the gas station.
We pigged out at the Persian restaurant.
A used Arpa Majica (Mexican zither) with song sheets.

I would not recommend redpocket... I grabbed the 200/year 2GB Verizon plan back in July and am already about to switch back to AT&T prepaid 8GB 40/month plan. You get bottom priority so it’s slow as hell even with a strong signal and texts often don’t show up for days. More than once my data has gone out completely even though the phone shows that it has a good signal. No visual voicemail or wifi calling either.

I lasted four months so basically paid $50 a month for a quarter of the data and way worse service than I had with AT&T prepaid for $40.

Re: Black Friday, I grabbed horizon zero dawn for PS4 for 10 bucks, and used the 15% off eBay coupon for a bike GPS as a gift for my girlfriend and an extra set of BMW 17” style 98 wheels for myself so I don’t have to get winter/summer tires swapped twice a year.

the memory card is not 250$ discount ;) regular price is 60 at most,
wireless charger regular price 30.
.
Provide a link where the exact/same items are sold at the prices you mentioned. I'll like to buy more of the Samsung 512GB if at $60.
Amazon.com shows a 256GB for about $69. Best Buy shows the charger at $59.99, B&H photo at $29.99 ($30 savings).

Thanks for the info about Redpocket , I'll look into that. ;)

The original was a classic.

The new one is more fun than I expected. It's not a masterpiece, but it is pretty fun. I'm usually not a fan of Jack Black, but he stole the show. It's worth a watch for sure!

Same. I didn't expect it'd be fun as it was. I was thoroughly entertained. Both original and 2nd one are great. I love Jack Black, and obviously laughed my ass off at his antics.

Nothing here. FlipperFidelity has a "sale" on their replacement speaker kits but it's only like $8 off. I might just DIY something for cheaper.
