Because my yearly subscription to Playstation Plus Premium ends January 2 2025. I am not eligible for any Playstation Plus subscriptions on sale during Black Friday ?
I remember when PlayStation Plus used to go on sale every Black Friday so you could renew for cheaper. Those were the days.

I hope there is a sale on PS Portal, I want one for my birthday next week.
Psvr2 may get a 40% discount, making it about $330, which is a little more expensive than the Meta Quest 3s, given the Meta Quest doesn't also have a sale.
No sale for the PS5 Pro as expected, and the PS Plus essential for nonmembers will receive a 25% discount, bringing it to the original price of $60.
i can't wait for 90% of it to be "jumping bean" and browser games
