  • That sounds like a fantastic spec for the price - and it goes towards your free £20 (spend over £40 4 times)
  • Hi,
    just bought one yesterday, giving it a good workout so far impressed.

    If anybody is interested it runs the new football manager 2009 quite well and internet/screen all decent.

    Can't see them in my store where i live in the north east of scotland. Looks like a really good deal aswel my mum is going to buy a laptop for my brothers christmas so this wouldhave done fine.

    i was pretty bummed out. on Sunday i was going to buy one at the Morecambe store, i work there and it was before they were advertised anywhere so i was like oh it'll be fine to wait till my extra discount day (november 26th) as nobody really knows about them. then yesterday i was just sorting things out behind the counter and overheard they had all gone. how annoying! if i'd known they were going to be advertised i would have definately bought it straight away..well my mum would have.. it was meant to be my 18th birthday present lol.
    been looking everywhere and i just can't find another cheap laptop that's good. they're all like £400!!:eek:


    so yeh, if you were planning on going there I'm afraid they're gone. They are meant to be on offer until the 4th January but apparantly no more will be coming in =[

    Considering Morrisons advertised in the National Press about this offer, I'm surprised they only had a few for each store, was the idea behind it to get more customers into the store :rolleyes:
