Stupid little things that bug you

Yodel left £400 of Xmas presents I’d ordered for the fam on my doorstep last week.

Genuinely blew my mind they didn’t get pinched.

I had Royal Mail deliver a signed item (PS5) to my next door neighbour. His Fat Worzel Gummidge looking wife then brought it around and put it outside the door.

Don't understand why someone would take an order in like that. I'd rather it go back to the depot and I can rearrange delivery. Don't take in post that isn't yours if you aren't willing to honour the obligations you incur by doing so.

Delivery drivers are genuinely daft because of GPS.

I've had the door open light on and they just walk straight past as they saunter to the next door neighbour.

Maybe read the label and use common sense.
 
Black Friday and Cyber Monday - what a load of old shit…….
Been going on for weeks....hurry ends 9th December.

Fells like all this shit started around bonfire night. More American stuff finding it's way over here and the sheep being enticed into it.

Halloween, Black Friday, surprised there's not been a push to somehow attach the UK to Thanksgiving Day!!!!

That’ll be next - look at how Halloween has taken a grip on the UK - that’s a pile of old shit as well.
 
Why ?

I just saved about $750 on a new fridge and washing machine, I waited a month for the black friday sale on purpose.

Last year I saved big on a new Samsung phone.
We already have a January sale that usually starts December 19th. We will have a summer sale no doubt Spring and Autumn too.
I think the British posters on here are railing against 2 things.
1. We are being Americanised.
2. How does a Black Friday sale spread out to 3 weeks ?

Did the shop/manufacturer inflate the price just to discount it ? They do here even though it's basically illegal to do so.

Can't speak for UK but you can get absolute big reductions here in Oz on the black friday sale.

Noticing that many people in UK are anti anything American, actually Halloween was exported to America from Irish English and Scottish immigrants nineteenth century so it's not a yank import at all.

Right, but the exported thing was overtly religious, no schoolgirl uniforms then.
