Sainsbury's Electronic Bargain Hunt

What's it about?

Sainsbury's is in the last few days of its January sales (it ends this Friday). All the different products that've been kept in the back rooms over the last year or so are now out in front being sold off cheaply. Of course there's no guarantees of a bargain, but it's worth taking a look.

Let me give you an example

E.g. Ladbroke Grove Sainsbury: has Alba DVD players at £17.99 and Beko 24" widescreen TVs at £79.99.

What to do next

Of course you should always compare these prices with the cheapest price available elsewhere. See Cutting Edge Internet Time And MoneySaving Techniques.

    Suprised you didn't mention my favourite internet comparison engine, Froogle, although officially the UK version is still in Beta.

    Best thing I like about Froogle is the WAP version at http://wml.froogle.co.uk so you can checkout whether those Sainsburys bargains really are special before you go through the checkouts!
    I'd be happier on holiday in Brittany than being at work !

    I'm sure I saw a DVD recorder in the New Romney branch yesterday for under £100 - £69.99 or £79.99. Jolly nearly bought it but don't get much time to watch TV so resisted.

    Just to add to this - and it may be moved to another post - I've just seen a DVD recorder for £99.99 on Boots on line shop, was on their latest ad email. It's in sale so may not last long. Saving of 30£ on Bush machine
    Ooh, I've gotta little star! What's that for then?!!
