Topic: Black Friday taking over the UK

So it's obvious that Black Friday has been a big thing in the US for a rather long time and that Amazon UK started doing lots of special deals last year's Black Friday week but it seems a significant number of my local stores are opening on Black Friday at 5am (some also have midnight launch on same day for Smash/Amiibo/ORAS). Anyone else noticing something similar?

Been slowly happening for the last 4 years but yes this year seems to be especially good this year.
