Page 1 of Nintendo DS & Super Mario DS £99.99

Just bought myself a PSP and also fancied a DS, so I went into my local Virgin Megastore, asked for a DS, then at the checkout quote "Virgin, the home of hand held gaming" and was then given a free Super Mario DS game cartridge as well as a voucher sheet knocking £25.00 off DS games. Bargain!!

Where`s this phrase to quote come from? (so i can berate my virgin if they refuse to honour it)

The quote comes from the Virgin In-Flight magazine on their international flights

Brilliant, thanks.

Been looking for a good deal on DS since before it was released (only wanted a UK version for warranty and power supply reasons).

Just to say, this offer has been available at Virgin since the launch of the DS :)

But this was the first i heard of it, hence my excitement. ;)

does this really work??

Gotta be worth sounding like a dick to save £30.00 if so!

why take life so seriously..its not like you are going to make it out alive

I tried it on my way to the bus this evening. Virgin in Nottingham said they hadn`t heard of it and even called the manager to see if he`d heard of it.

They said if i could show them the offer in the in-flight magazine then they`d honour the deal.

So, as i have no magazine, can`t get the offer.

Good luck if you have a go.

Guys! This is NOT a wind up!! When I first heard about it last week on another forum, I thought "ho hum" myself, but I got the deal on Monday by doing exactly as described, geez, there was even a barcode "DS Free Game Discount" - £29.99 the cashier scanned. Chewie says it has run since the launch in November, but last week was the 1st time I heard of it.

I`m not disputing it doesn`t exist.

I`m just warning people that the store may not have heard of it and in which case they won`t honour it.

Maybe it isn`t running at all stores.

If anyone has anymore info on it, or a copy of the original piece in the virgin magazine i`d really appreciate it.

Thanks anyway to fred7 for the original post - just wish i could take advantage of it.
