edited 2 October 2009 at 4:23PM in It's gone, but was it any good?
I have just used the mega shopbot to search for the cheapest place to buy my son a book called aliens love underpants.

123 pricecheck came up with a site called Price minister stating that it would be 0.84 delivered. This is because there is a code (tells you the code on pricecheck) that gives you £5 off your first order if you are a new customer.

I clicked through to the site and actually found the newest edition of this book for £5.42. so added that to my basket used the code and paid 0.42. Ideal!!:p

Also checked topcashback just before placing the order and they are also offering £5 cashback on first order. So if that tracks aswell Im actually £4.58 in profit!!:T.

I didnt check all the other books but seems to be loads on there and so you may buy a book at £5 or less and get it absolutely free!

The code

    i used it for friday night lights series 2 which meant i got it for £8.

    word of warning though, topcashback has only tracked at £1.04 at the minute and not the £5.

    Still a bargain though and item sent quickly and well packaged.

  • Thanks for this. I've just ordered a book for only £4.62 with the introductory discount and I'm hoping the Topcashback tracks too. Great find!!!
