The Great 'Secret price codes and what they stand for' Hunt

For PC World and Currys and product with a price tag ending in 98p has been discontinued. This will see a small reduction in price. Often there where be plenty of stock of these items across several stores.
Any product with a price ending in 97p will be classified as clearance. The clearance items are being sold at cost or less, however there may still be cheaper places to buy the same product. Normally these products will be in short supply possibly the last one left across all stores. Often there will be periods where the team will be told to prioritise the sale of these products, normally around the boxing day, new year and bank holiday sales.
Desktops and Laptops can often be Pre-owned or Ex-Display but still come with a full guarantee. One thing to remember is if it does go wrong and you are offered a replacement it is suppose to match on specification not price, with exception if you were aware that it was pre-owned or ex demo (it says it on the receipt). So if it goes wrong soon after purchase you need to push your case. Quite often a phone call to the customer service department at head office by either the staff in store or by yourself can yield a gift voucher making up the difference in cost. The store staff hate doing discount. This comes from plenty of experience of doing this when I used to work there as the Sock Integrity Specialist many years ago.
