in I wanna buy it or do it
I am not into computer games i would not know a bargain with one if it smacked me in the face. Does anyone know of a good deal on a nintendo DS, package or not. Not bothered about the new pink one as my daughter is not a girly girl

Thanks!

    I know Argos have the DS Lite in Pink for £99.99 inc one game, but for £119.99 you can get the DS, 2 games and an accesories pack ... plus you get £10 voucher back for spending over £100.

    Best deal I can find!

    I currently have broadband with Orange - £17.99p per month. My wife wants a new phone for Xmas and my daughter a Nintendo DS lite.

    I bought (free!) my wife a Sony Ericcson W810i from onestopphoneshop. This included a free DS lite and half price line rental for 8 months.

    The line rental I took was Canary with Orange (£30). But because I have my broadband with orange I now receive this free as I have a £30 line rental.

    The result is my wife has her phone, my daughter has her DS lite and I am saving £2.99 per month on my broadband/mobile phone package for the first 8 months. ie £15 per month.

    I also went through Quidco and should receive £42.50p from them!!

    Think the £119.99 is for the DS and not the DS lite - can't work out that price.

    You just have to be lucky with Toysrus - the PSP bundles are the same. I just kept checking very regularly - many times a day - I got one but they were out of stock again within a couple of hours.

    My daughter brought 1 out her birthday money yesterday, we did shop about i dont think i got the best deal but it was ok, we got black ds lite, with accessory pack and super mario world (which is the game she really wanted) from argos for £129.97 and for spending over £100.00 we got a £10 gift card back so it wasnt a bad price, and if ur not really in the know with computer games the DS also plays game boy advance games and there are alot of them games cheap at the moment. HTH

    I think the DS Lite in Pink has *only just* been launched this week in the UK. So it's likely to the the normal DS Pink at Argos.

    Ive ordered a pink ds lite for my daughter for christmas from lxdirect. It cost £130 and comes with 2 games. I got it down to £115 from using a £15 off voucher that I found on this site somewhere. Its showing out of stock at the moment but I have been told mine is being delivered on the 4th november so maybe the site will show them back in stock then.

    Just checked again and other colours are showing as being in stock but delivery is 2 & 3 weeks so still in time for christmas.
