No I think people are hurting financially and started BF way too early. Dreading all the Christmas crap from now until the end of the year already
A lot of early indicators (in other industries, I mean) that I pay attention to are showing it being a weak BF. We'll see if that is true and a bigger economic trend is forming, or if people just didn't rush out to Best Buy at 9PM after dinner this year for other reasons. I know with my own friends/family, nobody went out. Even if I hate it and never go, there were usually always stories of someone's ridiculous haul. The pinch has been very real for many.
Most stuff we were planning to push was likely to be Sunday Night/(Cyber) Monday, but we'll come up with something for the thread and see if we can't get some participation from summerhosts like @MannDude or @rsk

Dude, do some crazy deals. The revenue loss will more than sompensate with the craze and word of mouth publicity. Rather than being just part of memes.

This feels like a chicken and egg problem. In Germany for example, discounts were laughable compared to preceding years. Laptops were put "on sale" for prices higher than a year ago for the same (ie last year's) model (not to think of any meaningful discounts of this year's lineup). As far as I can tell, retailers were unwilling to offer meaningful discounts and the currently rather price-sensitive consumers took notice and bought less than they had on previous occasions where discounts were better. Low single digit ravings (I know the label says -40%, but it said -35% all ear already) just won't cut it, no matter how much they try to confuse consumers.

Maybe chicken and egg, but the pinch is real on all fronts. Less disposable income, rising costs on every front for every business. Every time you turn around its +XX% (as a business, I mean). For example, I knew a price hike was coming on some IP space we leased. Agreements were already in place for us to leave due to their own absolutely mind-blowing censorship policies, well the email of the price hike landed in my inbox the day before Thanksgiving. It was approximately +60% monthly for the same thing ... h-happy Thanksgiving!
There has also been some of a seemingly stagnation in a lot of the tech stuff--or maybe stagnation isn't quite right, but less excitement. AMD and Intel's newest CPU (desktop) launches seemed underwhelming to me. Maybe my own mindset has shifted, but I don't really see the value for a lot of use-cases. It's very possible I just am not the target audience anymore, but I doubt there is an abundance of 19 year olds with $600+ spare for a marginal CPU upgrade/side-grade.
Anyways, screw the doomer thought let's dig something up for later today.

This is exactly why I'm not posting any ultra low offers. Things are kinda hard financially. It doesn't benefit me to do ultra low sales to my bottom line as a host, and it also doesn't benefit my customers if I'm so strapped for cash I can't renew my storage arrays from what revenue is generated.
I'm brand new to the public scene, I still have a lot to learn, and quite a bit to sell before I break 100% even on power and bandwidth. Silver lining is everything is owned, nothing leased - so it's pretty hard to deadpool but never impossible.
In the US it is called idiocity. The Feds cut the interest rate but they just keep rising. They handed out cash like it was candy and people used it like water. It flooded the market and diluted the dollar.
They used it buy shit they didn't need and now can't pay for it. We in the States are in a bubble like we were in the 30s before the meltdown and they can't stop it.
