    After a decade or two of not even glimpsing at duty free I recently checked a few booze items in the airport duty free against local Lanzarote supermarket prices, a complete rip off, not just a few quid more.

      Yeah but at a ton it's practically disposable.

      If I didn't have an iPad I reckon I'd get one in a shot just for Netflix.

        It's some American think. All the press is full of Black Friday sales, seems the equivalent of our Boxing Day sales. People started queuing for one store at 8pm last night for them to open at 12.

          Ive never even heard of Black Friday in this context, I thought this was when shares crashed on a Friday.

            BBC News - Black Friday: US begins its key sales weekend

            There you go. My flight isn't until 9pm tonight so I may as well go shopping.

              Just bought a waterproof jacket. This is getting expensive. Think I'd better stop looking.

                It's only Amazon who seem to 'celebrate' it in the UK really, and that's relatively recent.
