Xbox 360 core system @ Toys r us

Went in to local store last night for a browse and come across a game case with a sticker attached saying - Xbox 360 core system £69.99. Knowing we had bought the son the arcade edition for christmas was not really phased by it till we got home and googled the price of it. Selling on Game.co.uk preowned for £99.99 and play.com for £96.99 realised it was a bargain so rang up to confirm availability to find only one was left in stock. Needless to say other half whipped the car out and was gone in a flash to pick it up. Whilst looking again at the shelves saw the accessory pack priced at £5.99 this is £29.95 in Argos and the dvd remote was £6.99, this is priced at £17.99 on Amazon. They also had the hd cable for £7.99 which i have also seen priced up at £17.99 online. Only thing they didnt have in stock was any form of memory which is the next thing to go seeking. This seems to be in store only as nothing was showing up on their site. It was also in the Tamworth store if anyone is interested.

On my quest for memory for afore mentioned item saw on HUKD a thread for memory. Currently Sainsburys are selling 120gb hard drives at £50 minus the vat bringing it down to £48.93. I had rang local store last night to be told they were out of stock but at 10.15 this morning a lady on the TU/Entertainment desk dissappeared of into the back office not knowing what she were looking for come back with the hard drive saying it was all she could find and it was the last one. But plenty of the 20gb available for £44.00 minus vat. Pondered with other half over it and said "oh go on then" and bagged it, now other half going to spend tomorrow fathoming out what to do with it as we are both techno phobes.
