    I need to get my little girl a Pink DS Lite for Christmas. BUT, she only wants Nintendogs Chihuahua which isn't one which you can buy as a bundle deal. So, can anyone recommend a good price for a good bundle deal which is suitable for a girly 4 year old, or does anyone have any good disount codes which I could use to buy the additional game. Does anyone have any experience of buying a DS lite and games from the US? Do they work ok here?
    Many many thanks for any help

    Hi using www.billybargain.co.uk to find the game, it finds Chihuahua for 20.99 and it's in stock, going through the link above gives free delivery too. Looking there is also a money off code:

    SOFTUK 20% -10% OFF VOUCHER: VALID UNTIL MONDAY 24th NOV 2008 !!

    We have a HUGE 20% - 10% discount code offer starting Monday 17th November 2008.
    enter SOFTUKXMAS into the discount code box when completing your order and they you
    receive a 20% discount on items £16.99 or less and 10% discount on items purchased over £16.99 !

    This makes the game £20.99 then the 10% off!

    Hope this helps :)

    Tested this to see if it worked & it did, but..when I removed the item & tried another it didn't give me the option to enter the voucher. It just says that the discount is £2.10(amount from 10% off the Nintendogs), but it hasn't actually discounted the item!:confused:

    Remove your codes as they are only meant to be posted in the voucher section :)
  • Hi all,
    I picked up a ds today for my husband in Game station for £109 for a silver ds (had all colours except red!) a starter pack and they are doing any game up to £29.99 I grabbed Lego Batman a good deal I think, had lots in stock. This was in Basildon HTH
  • I bought a light blue one from Tesco Direct last week.
    Just on its own, as my DD has games etc, just her DS broken :rolleyes:
    Came to @ £80 with discounts

    Being of a certain age (ie over 21) not too sure whether I want to buy jr a ds lite.

    Have been advised by informed personnel ( under 21)to get a chipped one. I think they do not mean one with dodgy marks on.

    Does anyone know what this means? Is there any benefit? Any comments much appeciated!

    :T Using the link from above, I have managed to get Nintendogs Chihahuha for £18.00 and then went to www.game.co.uk for a pink DS lite bundle deal with accessory pack and My Sims Kingdom game for £104. and they are offering free delivery

    I am now a happy Christmas mummy - just need to get the other two sorted :p
    Thanks everyone for your help
