    Plus MS have been rolling out a new revision of the 360 since September, with slightly lowered power consumption as the graphics chip has been shrunk, so you stand to save in more ways than one.
    You've almost justified me buying an upgrade, right there :D

    OH has just returned home from work having gone home via 2 sainsburys who do not sell Xbox's or Wii's ... he has now nipped upto another one ...(not mentioning where til he gets home) I called the store, they have 2 left so we are going to get one. (OH already has one but this is ideal for our son who is desperate for one and at this price its good as he will still get a couple of pressies with the rest of his money :D ) Let you all know how we get on.

    Just popped into Sainsburys in Bridgend and they only had 2 Wii's in stock which flew out apparently. They took my details and said I was second on the list - don't expect a phone call when they're in though!!!! Sales assistant didn't know when the next lot would be in :(

    Oops sorry, this wasn't from Sainsburys. I was asking other posters about an Xbox I picked up in January from the Boots.com sale. As you can imagine they definitely don't have them now.

    Sorry for the confusion.

    How did you manage to get a price match when there was no advertisment therefore no proof of the reduced rate?

    How did PC World check the price or did they just take your word for it?

    PC world phoned my local sainsburys up to check they had stock and asked the price.

    When I went into sainsburys this morning.. I asked a guy if they sold the console on its own, as the box on the shelf said £179.99 (for the wii, sports etc). He said `no, but the boxset is reduced to £149 as of today, I gave my surprised "oh is it - great Thanks" !! Then dashed to PC world !!

  • Well I got a wii last week from WHSMITH. They sell a wii with Tiger Woods pga 2009, wii sports and beach sports for £179.99
    considering Tiger woods is £39.99 and Beach Sports is £19.99 I think their deal is better value for money than the sainsburys deal. (The WHSmith deal only appears to be instore NOT online) and if you can't find it instore get them to check up on it for you... ie scan the tiger woods, beach sport and wii console because some whsmiths aren't advertising the deal but they are all doing the deal!
