Black Friday may still be over a week away, but growing interest in pre-Christmas bargains means that the festivities now stretch out over weeks. With that in mind, here are the current best deals ahead of Black Friday itself, for those who have capped their budgets strictly at the £100 mark.
1. Amazon Echo Plus (first generation) with Philips Hue bulb – £89.99 (save £58.99)
If you’re looking to dip your toes in the smarthome waters, this deal on an Amazon Echo is a great way to start. The Echo Plus had a built-in smart home hub for Zigbee-powered devices, and this even comes with a Philips Hue white light bulb to get you started with the “Alexa, turn off the lights” command.
Yes, it’s been superseded by the second-generation model of Echo Plus, but the differences aren’t that great and a £58.99 saving certainly isn’t to be sneezed at.

2. Philips Hue starter kit and Google Home Mini bundle – £79.99 (save £105)
What’s better than a single smart bulb? Two smart bulbs, of course – and the Philips Hue starter kit is capable of changing to any of 16 million colours, all with a voice command via the included Google Home Mini.
Yes, the Google Home Mini isn’t our favourite smart speaker (its lack of aux output means you’re stuck with pretty limited sound quality, unless you also buy a Chromecast Audio), but for getting started with a smart home, it’s hard to beat.

3. 2018 Echo Dot with Philips Hue starter kit – £79.99 (save £104.98)
Like the Google Home Mini deal above, this also gives you access to two bulbs with 16 million colours. This, of course, can be controlled by the bundled 2018 Echo Dot which improves upon its predecessor in every way imaginable. An absolute bargain at this price.
It’s listed as out of stock right now, but Amazon says it will dispatch as soon as it’s back in, so don’t let that stop you filling your boots.

4. Tassimo by Bosch Happy TAS1002GB Coffee Machine – £29.99 (was £99.99)
Are you ready to take your hot drink making to the next level with Tassimo pods? Just buy the capsule of drink that you want, from one of 36 varieties, put it in and let the machine do the work.
This coffee machine started out at £100, so at a whisper under £30 it’s a superb impulse purchase for the coffee lover in your life.

5. Garmin Forerunner 30 – £91.99 (was £129.99)
A GPS running watch for under £100? Yes, it’s possible. It may not be the most feature-packed wearable out there, but it’s a very likeable watch in its own right, and at nearly £40 cheaper than when we gave it a glowing review, this is an absolute steal for those looking to beat their PB.
