Black Friday 2025

Sleds 'r' us.

Have we not passed peak tat yet?

Never buy tat from marketplace sellers, always screen for amazon.co.uk as the seller, sod the rest of those used car sales cretins.

Season's Greetings!

[MarillionFan]

Black Friday’s almost here, folks — and as someone who has long since abandoned the joys of day rates, IR35 debates and bickering about umbrellas, I now make my living flogging tat on Amazon.

So, my cash-rich contractor brethren, I need you to do your civic duty.

This year, don’t bother with the High Street. Don’t waste time hunting for cheaper prices. Don’t go to actual shops where things are mysteriously less expensive. No, no, no.

Instead, fire up Amazon, fill your baskets with as many toys, trinkets and utterly unnecessary impulse purchases as you physically can, and help line my pockets… along with that other bloke who owns the place.

Think of it as trickle-down economics, but in reverse. You trickle the money up, I’ll happily absorb it.

Dig deep, smash that Buy Now button, and don’t you dare question a single price.

Happy Black Friday.
