Translation: Veronica Bielawski
The 11th of November is a shopping holiday – at least according to some online store in China that made it so. While we don’t have any special offers here, you can discover a selection of products suitable for singles – and try your luck in a prize draw.
True to our slogan, at Galaxus you’ll find «pretty much everything». There’s just one thing you won’t find this year. Namely, a Singles’ Day bargain battle. We believe we’ve got good prices anyway – feel free to leave any complaints, insults or contrary claims in the comments. Besides, Black Friday’s coming up soon ...
Still, did Singles’ Day trigger a shopping reflex and lead you here? If so, I wouldn’t want to cause you complete disappointment. So, here’s a collection of products you may find useful as a single person – plus you can enter for a chance to win one of them. Find out which one it is that’s up for grabs below.
1. Raclette for one
This product is currently in season, and it’s one of the first results if you google «galaxus single». Possibly because of a review left by user «DB17» two years ago: «Perfect for singles.» Maybe the Duo Raclette oven even works well for two people. Who knows?
2. «Single» toothbrush head in a twin pack
3. Games that’ll allow you to argue with yourself
Board games are a nice way to pass the time, and a perfect way to enjoy a few hours of digital detox with good friends. But beware of overzealous players and cheaters – they can kill the mood in no time flat. Come to think of it, a game that’ll at most allow you to start arguing with yourself might be the safer bet ...
You’ll find further tips on just such games in this article by our resident fun and games editor Ramon Schneider:
4. Two single hotplates
You always hear that cooking and eating is what really brings people together. That’s why I was surprised to find so many single-worthy stove tops in our range. This includes models for ambitious cooks who can handle two hot plates at once, as well as models for those who are fulfilled with just one. One’s enough to heat up that can of alphabetti spaghetti, after all.
5. Hungry for wok?
6. Sex can be a party for one
Men who first use their cooking skills to make women swoon and then seduce them are popular in romantic movies. Drinks first, and then tickle the pickle? Or do you wait until after dinner, and then move on to horizontal refreshment? Hey, if you eat alone, you can cut the washing-up in half and have the sole say in what goes on in the bedroom.
7. Perfect for the morning after
Win the egg cooker!
The cover image for this article shows WMF’s single egg cooker. We’ve got no use for it anymore, so we’re giving you the chance to win it. Here’s how to enter: tell us in the comments why you of all people deserve this egg cooker the most. We’ll then choose the best, funniest or most absurd reason. The winner will receive the egg cooker. The deadline for entry is 18 November. Be sure to submit your creative comment by then!
Alright, alright. If you’re still interested in discounts only, head this way to see products currently on sale as well as promotions.
