Good luck!

I saw in the paper today that Xbox 360`s were going for £99.99. That`s f***ing amazing. :o

Yeah, they probably sold 1 at that price.
Went to the Virgin on Bishopsgate and they had nothing going that cheaply.

All rubbish at my local. Even HMV is better than Virgin these days.

On a lot of the usual websites there are people exploding with rage after queing all night only to see the sales staff sell all their cheap 360s to people in Virgin Staff T-Shirts. Apparently, before opening, someone heard a sales monkey on the blower to his girlfriend telling her to come down so he could give her one of the cheap 360 vouchers as it was one per customer and he wanted a couple.

Surely there must be a law against that sort of thing, Isn`t that classed as false advertising if none were ever available to the public ?.

Each store that had this sale going only had 5 xbox360s each and all the box sets were only one per customer that was one of each title i was 17th in the queue and managed to get 4 box sets band of brothers 6 disk, the pink panther 6 disk, the god father 4 disk and the lord of the rings 12 disk edition from the newcastle store

Makes me laugh when people que outside all night to get bargains like a few boxsets, surely they would be better going to a temp agency and doing a night shift on time and a half, because hardly any people ever end up with any of the "real" bargains.

This is probably the most intelligent comment I have ever seen on these forums!

Virgin Sale have always been crap. Their sales items are more expensive than other retailers, they spend all their money promoting their sales with alleged £99 xboxes but in truth these items are about as rare as a winning lottery ticket and always get reserved for the staffs family and friends.
