RE: Cheap Gamecube games at Woolworths?

inefficient store ;)

RE: Bourne Identity Special Edition £4.99 @ WH Smith

it is not the 2-disc edition, it is infact the minimilistic "special edition", without DTS or a Director`s Commentary.

RE: Another Misprice!!! LOTR Trilogy £4.99

No chance in hell WHS will offer them.

They refused a misprice on Halo 2 at £27.99, which was £2 lower than amazon took there pre-orders for, so they will DEFINITELY refuse this.

RE: Cheap Gamecube games at Woolworths?

National decision, in-stores only. Promotions are store specific.

There are certain games at £4.99 like the aforementioned F-Zero GX, WWE Crush Hour, Soul Calibur II, Starfox Adventures etc etc.. then more at £9.99 Final Fantasy : CC, Mario Kart: DD!! and various other low price-points.

RE: VIRGIN SALE better than HMV S***e...

Every item in the Virgin sale is cheaper at Woolworths.

Woolies really has raised the bar for highstreet sales this week. It really is superb.

RE: pokemon colleseum

Don`t have a clue what you are talking about.

All the stores in my district still have it at £104.99.

RE: Sky Digital - starter pack £8.99 including remote control !

They were marked up this morning to £39.99.

Everyone else has missed it I`m afraid, it was a 3-day price.

RE: Marilyn Monroe: The Diamond Collection Box Set £27.89

good spot.

RE: Xbox, who is doing good bundle deals at the moment?

Woolies are doing a free game of your choice for £99.99 (in-store). I would say that is the best offer at the moment.

It says on the advertisements its only Need For Speed 2, but in reality, its anything you like.

RE: woolworths.co.uk 10% off - Today Only

Nothing to you perhaps, but 99% of people buy MORE THAN JUST entertainment media for Christmas presents. ;~)

RE: Gamecube bundle for £32.99 - Virgin backs down!

does anyone know the tesco email address to send it to?

RE: Album of the year...

+ U2 - How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb

+ Aberfeldy - Young Forever

+ Interpol - Antics

Thanks.

RE: PC WORLD 50% off, WHSmith 10% off

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.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

ordered mine (1) at 7am on Friday from Tesco. Still Live.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I spent a good amount of money with my car insurance on Tesco a couple of months ago, and I have had nothing cancelled.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

Bundle:

1. A group of objects held together, as by tying or wrapping.
2. Objects which are wrapped or tied up for carrying; a package.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I sent some shots your way RM.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I am checking through some statute I have to try and find a clause about a case where a guy oredered a CD from a website and they sent him a different version, and the small claims court ordered that they had to supply him with the product advertised.

If I can find this, then it is game set and match dvd-reviewer Bargain Forums.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I am going to keep quiet here.

I would advise based on my position in the job for everybody to take 4 screengrabs from the Tesco website. These being:-

1.) The item window for the "Pokemon Colosseum Black Bundle" at £33.24 (showing the picture of the bundle pack)

2.) An enlarged version of this picture to verify it is the Bundle Pack.

3.) Do a search for "Pokemon Colosseum" and shoot this window, as it demonstrates both items, and that they have the other item for sale at £29.89, so they cannot say "its just a picture error".

4.) The item window for the "Pokemon Colosseum" game at £29.89

If they send me just the Pokemon Colosseum game I will be taking print-outs of all these games to Trading Standards as they are breaching all kinds of rules here, and if it is just a hardened few determined to get the set that they should rightfully be handed, then I think rather than spend all the time fussing, they will honour it.

Failing that, there is always Watchdog.. if enough of us complain, you all know Watchdog would LOVE to run a complaint on the country`s biggest Supermarket.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I think someone should phone the TESCO customer service hotline and raise this.. they will be bemused if a game that is currently listed just outside the 1000 mark on the all performance chart suddenly starts selling like hotcakes. :P

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

oh, and the way the supply issues work.

A Company called Entertainment UK (E-UK), which is owned completely by Woolworths supplies the stores primarily and the supermarkets next.This includes the likes of ASDA, Morrisons, Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsbury`s.. etc etc etc.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

No idea on the website issues RM, the company (StreetsExec) that does the websites are having a terrible time at the moment, what with the phones mistakes etc. You can probably imagine how happy the top brass are about it.

RE: 10% off all marked prices at Woolworths stores and Woolworths online

If you are loading them through links from this site, they do not support the frames, so you need to remove them. Works for me.

RE: Another mispriced woolworths bargain?

I ordered from Tesco as well, order confirmation went through, they are also breaching the Sale Of Goods Act (1986) and The updated Internet Sales Act (2001) by supplying a picture of a different product to the one they are selling, and are susceptible to legal action on that basis from various legal commissions.

RE: 10% off all marked prices at Woolworths stores and Woolworths online

wrong answer. It has happened two Thursday`s, and the first one was 3 weeks ago.

RE: Venturer Portable DVD Player £89.99 (Normally 99.99)

My store are completely sold out of the 159.99 ones, you want to snap that up if your local store has one, because they probably won`t get any back in.

It`s a very nice unit, was £299.99 last Christmas. Absolute bargain.

RE: for those in the 50" TV market...
