HOTUKDEALS

Love it or hate it, Black Friday will be here on November 24. But thankfully there’s no need to run the gauntlet with other shoppers at your local Currys to grab a cut-price 4K telly. HotUKDeals uses the power of the consumer crowd for good – voting hot or cold on deals.

Users vote on things such as price and quality to give each other an idea on whether a deal is worth bothering with or not.

You can set keyword alerts (such as ‘Xbox’ or ‘fashion’) to make sure you don’t get scooped while you’re not actively searching the app. Other features include enabling users to send and receive private messages and optionally being notified when a message has been received. If you’re gearing up for a frenzy of holiday gift buying during the next few weeks, then this is an app that should be right there on your home screen.
