PHILIPS TV Stand ST288720 1p @ www.currys.co.uk

Just type stand in the search and up it pops. Use the collect at store facility to avoid delivery cost.
The same stand is going for £149 here http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/393385/art/philips/tv-stand-st288720.html
Apparrantly this is an error and the stand is only available when purchased with a tv - though some store are honoring them.
I`m collecting mine today, and to help me get mine i`ve reserved a tv at another store which -
a) isn`t in stock at the store i`m collecting the stand.
b) the stand isn`t in stock at the store i`m collecting the tv.

Worth a punt i`d say.

RE: Genus Vizo 1Gb Portable MP4 Player - Was £149.99 Now £49.99+extras

Quote:
The case and tv leads were accessories you have to pay for though £20 each, not in the offer

I`m sorry my friend, but you are incorrect and I would advise you get back to the store and ask them for the free accessories. True they are available at £20 each, but if the CSA looks at the promotion codes on the till screen they will find that these are included in the offer. This is a nationwide offer, and i`ve noticed this offer is also posted on the MSE, and RPoints sites.

RE: Eurostar 2 for 1

the first one is discovery

Genus Vizo 1Gb Portable MP4 Player - Was £149.99 Now £49.99+extras

Picked this up in Dixons today - only seems available in-store, though here`s a link to the same product in Argos - http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5334702.htm
Dixons, and Currys i believe, are selling this for £49.99 + leather carry case (worth £20) + tv/stereo out leads (worth £20)

Only drawback i can find is the 1gb memory which can`t be expanded.
Still a bargin at under £50.

RE: X-Box games for 47p !!!

Thats b****ks about a pricing error - it`s still showing as 1p, and the disk states not for re-sale, so they couldn`t charge any more for it.
A few people on MSE have got this bargin also.
My guess is that someone in that store has decided they are going to have it for themselves :(

RE: X-Box games for 47p !!!

Good spot, but try this.
Type `microsoft` in the search field, then filter lowest price 1st.
For 1p you can purchase Jetset Radio Future - for xbox.

I just collected this from the Southampton, Hedge End Store - the look on the lady`s face when she rung it through the till was a picture.
My face even more so when the disk also contains GT 2002.

2 Full working games for 1p!

A couple of dumb questions.....

My son would like a K700i PAYG on O2. The chapest deals i can find are on either Virgin or Vodafone......

Question 1 - "Would it be recomended to buy cheaper on either of these networks and get the phone unlocked? Although i heared that Vodafone disabled the use of mp3 as ringtones... Would this still bethe case if it was unlocked to 02?"

Question 2 - "I`ve also heared that Tesco Mobile piggybacks the O2 network... Thus, would a Tesco phone have to be unlocked to 02 or not?

Many Thanks in advance for for your responses

RE: O2 Treats - call now!

Quote:
Yes it is for PAYG customers but you need to top up with £10 each month to qualify - TBH if you get an O2 online sim here (http://callsandmessages.o2.co.uk/messages.php)it is a better deal as you can have 300 texts or a mixture of calls and texts up to a total of 100 (1 min to any phone is a unit and 1 text is a unit)

I`m on PAYG and top up £15 a month - this gives me 150 off peak any network minutes, 300 text messages, plus i have the £15 in credit. With the treats i have added 15mins 02 or bt landline anytime minutes - surely the best PAYG deal. Nearly forgot, you also get free wap - not sure how long as rarely use it.

RE: WOW HOT ITEM --HURRY . Free Fan Heater .....Free Fan Heater..... Free Fan Heater..

I used solo, which doesn`t have an issue number. Just use `00`, then it goes through.. no charge.

All-in-one Printer £39.99 - Free Delivery - Comet!!

That`s right folks, a bargin from... comet!! lol

Lexmark X1190 - Most basic all-in-one i`ve seen but for less than £40, got to be worth it.

RE: 21` Tv / Dvd Combi £59.97 - Sainsburys

I phoned just now 17.20, got straight through to a girl called Gemma, who said they have plenty on shop floor, and probably more `out the back` though couldn`t confirm when the offer finishes or if they are getting more in.
I`m still debating wether to get one, even though i don`t really need one.

21` Tv / Dvd Combi £59.97 - Sainsburys

Can`t even remember make, let alone spec - but was in Sainsburys, Hedge-End, Southampton - loads in stock.

RE: Nokia 3100 Refurbished PAYG O2 £9.99 Incl P&P

The Sony Ericsson K700i - Refurbished @ £69.99 is an excellent buy.
I bought this phone aprox 6months ago for £100 refurbished from Car Phone Warehouse - Sim Free. It`s an all singing and dancing phone, and never had any problems with memory. Get a dongle or data cable from ebay for less than a tenner and download all those mp3`s for free. I can recomend a forum for free ringtones, video, etc if anyones interested? free to register - and mp3`s are full length.

Nokia 3100 Refurbished PAYG O2 £9.99 Incl P&P

O2 seem to have a page for students, where they knock off £20 from their PAYG range.

Have a look HERE

The refurbished 3100 is a great price for a 2nd phone. Goes nicely with the current free sim offer.

RE: Cheap Play Equipment at B&Q

1st phone a b&q warehouse store, and see if they hold stock of this item.
If so, demand that they source the product from a store.

If they are still reluctant, or don`t hold stock, ask for someone from B&Q Direct to contact you. B&Q Direct is the name for web-site dept.

Just to explain that last point, the B&Q Direct contact centre, is contracted out. They are not B&Q employee`s and don`t care much about the company reputation.

I remember the B&Q Direct customer service manager, was a Paul Prothero. Might be worth shouting that name around.

Let me know how you get on.

RE: XBox Bargins every hour this Sunday - It`s Started....

As stated in the Q&A

Q. I pressed the buy button, but when I went to checkout, my basket just vanished and the site pushed me back to the front page. What happened?
A. An order is not accepted by the system until you complete checkout - pressing the "Buy" button alone does not complete an order or earmark you a unit of stock. That`s why, if you want something, you need to finish the process ASAP rather than leaving an item in your basket - otherwise someone else will have it!

RE: XBox Bargins every hour this Sunday - It`s Started....

lol, I can`t even stand wrapping Xmas presents!
Just got Halo 2 and cd carry case for £15.49 incl p&p.

Looks like it`s going to be a late night for me.

RE: M. Night doodah first 3 films boxset for a tenner.

couldn`t do that. Enjoy my day trips across the channel too much, being a smoker and drinker lol

Saying that, been to Donny a few times on buisness.. lovely ladies there :p

RE: M. Night doodah first 3 films boxset for a tenner.

Just checked out their website, and got well excited about the cd`s on sale.
Only to find the website is non-transactional, and the nearest store to me (Southampton) is Birmingham!?!
