Walmart kicked off its Black Friday sale with a major discount on AirPods 2, now available for $69.00, down from $129.00. Amazon briefly matched this price, but we haven't seen it return in two days. This is a new all-time low price on the 2019 earbuds, and a great Black Friday deal.

The people at Anker have lost their minds, they sell chargers and some bundles are $184. They sell chargers.

None of these deals listed seem that great to me. Air pods 2? Those released in 2019. Anker's pricing seems to be inflated retail with "deals" to get it down to the usual pricing. I know the big brands do it too (looking at you, Bose), but we are talking early BLACK FRIDAY here. At least give us one GREAT anchor deal even if the rest are 'meh'.

The people at Anker have also seemingly lost the ability to sell products on their website. I've been trying to order one of their 'mystery box' deals for the past week (using Apple Pay). Order is cancelled immediately. I've talked to their support folks - the best they can do is tell me to buy it on amazon or have a friend do it.

Kind of shocked, as Anker has been one of the most responsive companies I've dealt with...they've replaced cables - even out of warranty - in the past. It's crazy...multiple cards, multiple shipping addresses...nothing works and they don't seem to care. Still great products (for now). When support/service starts to tank like this, I always think that product quality can't be too far behind.

EDIT: used amazon pay and it worked. (huh?). FWIW, I've had the cube for almost a year and I've been really impressed with the quality...I travel a lot and like that it's a one plug option for my standard bedside stuff (at the price it's a splurge, but I don't regret the purchase).

No joke.
I kinda like the ‘travel cube’ but not for $150 and it also lacks any pass through charging ports.
Anker quality seems to be a notch up from <random unknown China brand> but $150 for that?
Not happening - looks like no Anker BF buys + no Anker anything under the Xmas tree this year.

I'm forever studying the English language, and have a question: Is the word "take" in each of those sentences necessary? Shouldn't it just be "What's the deal? $50 off Apple Watch Series 9" ... and so on?
Yes, it’s technically not needed.
Other options:
Get $20 off X
Save $20 off X
