<p>Came across a so called &#8220;leaked&#8221; list of upcoming items and sale prices for <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/deals-offers-savings/b?ie=UTF8&amp;node=350613011&amp;ref_=amb_link_161932547_2&amp;_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=scoopzcom-21&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1634&amp;creative=19450">Amazon Black Friday</a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="https://www.assoc-amazon.co.uk/e/ir?t=scoopzcom-21&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=2" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" />.</p>
<p>The list wasn&#8217;t too easy to read in plain html list formats o I simply took copy and pasted it into Excel to make it easier to view in columns and then saved the resulting Excel file as a PDF which you can find below:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.scoopz.com/amazon.pdf" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1145" title="Amazon Black Friday Leaked product list" src="http://blog.scoopz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/pdf-file-logo-icon-150x150.jpg" alt="Amazon Black Friday Leaked product list" width="105" height="105" /></a></p>
<div><a title="Amazon Black Friday Leaked product list" href="http://www.scoopz.com/amazon.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.scoopz.com/amazon.pdf</a></div>
<div>I certainly wouldn&#8217;t rely on the information in the list as being 100% accurate, after all, we haven&#8217;t got a clue where it originated from but it makes for an interesting read.</div>
