    If it is model number 8157 (bar code 0155 8739) then that is coming up at £19.99 now (at Nottingham, Castle Marina store).:confused:
  • If it is model no 8257 (bar code 0155 8739) I bought it a couple of weeks ago for a present - £19.99 at the time. It's quite a good clock radio for the price apart from one MAJOR fault - the time doesn't show up in the dark!! Need to put the light on to see it. The numbers are in black, on a light background. It does show this in the picture on the box but I didn't think about it at the time - I wrongly assumed that the time on a clock radio would be able to be read easily at night.
