Page 1 of PC WORLD 50% off, WHSmith 10% off

Advert in paper: upto 50% off tomorrow only (open until midnight) also available online at pcworld.co.uk

Don`t ask me what is 50% off does not say.

Also WHSmiths have 10% of everything in store this Thursday 12-8pm. Also advertising Lexmark Z615 Colour Inkjet Printer half price £24.99 (buy now)

WHS deal sounds interesting, but it requires a code from a flyer to secure the reduced price at checkout - I`m sure someone will post the relevant code in time. I also suspect that the code will be different each week.

A feeling in my bones says that the PC World deal is probably going to prove to be a damp squib. However, it would be nice to be proven wrong!

I got the WHSmith email today, but it doesn`t mention needing any codes, just that it`s only for 24 hours, and available in store and on the web. It refers you to this page for terms and conditions, still no mention of needing codes though.

They are copying Woolworths` 10% off days.

WHSmith are getting beaten s***less by Woolworths at the moment, I would say they will go out of business after yet another poor Christmas performance.

lets hope they start to copy the woolies pricing errors too :)

if it looks like a bargain and smells like a bargain and feels like a bargain then for **** sake tell us about it

Anyone know when the next Woolies 10% off day is (if there is one)?

PC World ...

How do they get away with it?

Brother HL1430 for 79.99- claim that the normal price is 159.99, yet on PC World Business the price is 84.00 (excluding VAT - 98.20 inc) - so it`s a saving of £20, not £80 as they claim.

This space for sale





. <--- Except this bit, its mine.

Sounds like another Auction world to me!

And they have had theSamsung ML1510 laser printer on for 39.99 all last week (ran out of stock quickly) - now theyve bumped it up to 68.64 in anticipation of this 50% thingy saying the in store price was 99.99.

This is rubbish as I saw them in store for 49.99 two days ago. I then decided I wanted one, so no way was I going to buy it from PCWorld - ordered it from Office World for 49.99 with free p&p!
