Generally I find Black Friday a bit overhyped, the "bargains" are best checked against price history with (say) CamelCamelCamel before you buy. Not Black Friday, but in the UK and maybe other countries, Amazon Warehouse is currently doing a 20% off sale, so 20% off the price when you get to checkout. I've had a few good "As New" things off there in the past, worth having a look. There's also a 50% off books sale on t…

Is it possible to do an API request to find greatest price differential compared to historical price of items with > 1000 reviews?

The VPS provider that I use, Time4VPS has some pretty nice discounts until the 28th of November: https://www.time4vps.com/?affid=5294 (affiliate link)

Another already affordable VPS provider, Contabo, also seems to have nice deals: https://contabo.com/en/ (they expire in an hour at the time of writing)

The Namecheap domain registrar that also offers e-mail and other stuff has some ongoing deals: https://www.namecheap.com/domain-web-hosting-ssl-deals/black...

$80 software 50% off to take screenshots and that's a deal? Mac app economy is truly crazy. Just mind blowing to me when we have FOSS software like ShareX which pretty much does the same and more https://getsharex.com/

I'm more of a Greenshot fan, it's small and gets out of the way. Unfortunately only available for Windows.

Greenshot is available on the mac app store now (for $2).

I picked up some discounts on recurring software/app subscriptions I use:

Fitbod Elite - Workout tracking/planning - 40% off - 47.99 annually - I was paying 12.99$ a month!!!

Plex Pass Lifetime - 25% off - 90$ once - Regular $120

I have used YNAB for budgeting for years. I wish I could find a discount on that. Still keeping an eye out for any other similarly useful deals on stuff I already pay for.

If anyone is thinking of buying a power bank, I strongly recommend those ones that can also start a car. Way less hassle than jumper cables

Can you give an example of one? It blows my mind that this is possible - I mean not the technology exactly, that makes sense, but just that something reasonably portable that I would carry around in case my phone dies can also have the level of utility of jumping my vehicle in a pinch. The future is pretty cool.

I've had one for each car since ~2017. I have a portable air compressor that goes with us on camping trips, too. Highly recommended.
