Discounted books in PC World

Just went to PC World to try out the Macs, dad was looking at the books. They have a selection (Photoshop, Windows XP, iPod guide books) with 20% off.

Dad was umming and arring over whether or not to get the Photoshop one as it might be cheaper on Amazon, but he went for it in the end.

Took it to the till and paid. Walked out, and dad looked at his receipt. They had taken 20% off the already discounted price - so we got two disocunts! A £28 book for £16.

The 20% off sticker on the book says "discount off marked price", but when the book went through the checkout the price that came up already had a discount taken off it, the bloke didn't realise this and took another 20% off.

The books are good value with 20% off, but there's a high chance you might get an extra discount!

Good luck.
