So what are people eyeing so far

So far picked up a Herman Miller chair re annual 15% sale. Looking to hit the instant pot next, many deals on that.

Getting a few Chromecasts and on the fence about a Google Home.

Less important but tempted are an Xbox one S or Sonos playbar.

Yeah but if I like it I'd rather go with the full Home. Might buy both to try and return what I don't need.

BLACKBOXMYCAR currently has the BlackVue DR750S-2CH for $40 off. $479 total.

Also for today only, TAKE ADDITIONAL $35 OFF BLACKVUE DR750S-2CH with CODE: TODAYONLY750

total of $444. That decent deal? Or should I wait Friday? It also doesn't come with a magic pro.

I'm hoping Lee Valley will have their gift card sale on Cyber Monday. I remember that was the time I got my $1000.00 gift card for $800.00 last year. That's such a good deal for items that never go on sale.

Looking for Zojirushi Hybrid Water Heater/Warmer. I have one at home and it is great. Want to get another one as a gift. I got mine from a place in Crystal Mall. If there are no Black Friday deals on them, I can always go back there. If anyone sees them on sale, let me know.

Not the same product, but maybe check Bed, Bath, & Beyond. I picked up my Zojirushi rice cooker/crock pot there with a 20% coupon. I was very surprised to find it there. I went back to the store in Yaohan and show the receipt to the boss lady at the store there and told her to suck it. (*This portion is fictional.)

I have seen it advertised at BBB in the US and the 20% off will work. Not sure with Canada BBB. Will try that.
