This iPad Black Friday deal is so breathtaking I can’t actually breathe

As somebody who has been writing about Black Friday deals for nearly five years, I like to think I am impervious to their powers. But when I saw this iPad deal, which sees the 10th generation model reduced by $90, down from $349 to $259, it quite literally took my breath away.

I tried calling out to my wife Sharon, but then remembered she left me yesterday because of my reaction to another deal. With time running out, I knew I needed to call an ambulance – but I also needed to take advantage of this deal before it was too late. It was quite a conundrum. I eventually managed to call an ambulance, after ordering the iPad. I hope it arrives quickly (the ambulance), as I can’t – and I can’t stress this enough – breathe.
