PC World has instituted a new "reserve and collect" service, and offered some great discounts for the first 250 customers (see separate thread on £299 laptop - now gone!) BUT this service also works for their ordinary web deals.
For instance instore price for an FX5200 graphics card is £59.99 instore, but you can reserve and collect it instore for just £35.16. When you add it to your basket and go to the checkout you get the option to collect it at the web special price.
They have loads of online items at cheaper prices than the instore ones, and it may only be a matter of time before they pull these or decrease the discounts, so grab them while you can! Just look for the items which have an instore price and also a "Web exclusive" price.

While picking up my £290 laptop (massive thanks again to the poster of that bargain!) I noticed this deal.
Wasn't sure of it at the time as I've never thought of bothering with wireless until now but since I got home I've been trawling the web for prices.
Best I found was Ebuyer at £56.68 for both incl. VAT and P&P.
So it seems the PCWorld deal is pretty good if you are after a basic wireless setup for your laptop.
Looked like it was part of their Easter deals so I guess it ends next Tuesday.0 -
Do you have the link.
Thanks,
AccrodionBoy...whatever happened to the mini milk ice lolly?0 -
