    Woo! Stone store in Staffordshire had none.

    But Hanley had plenty of GB Advance and Micro. 2 boxes on the shelves, one for Pink and Tribal GB SP at £50 and an Xbox Bundle marked up at £150.

    Took all three to the till, Xbox still scanned at £150 for some reason but the others came up at the new lower price. She went into the back to get them and took the Pink display box off but not the Tribal and asked if they had another - which they did so I bought that!

    And then, when she went to get the other one she came out with 2 micro bundles that weren't anywhere on the shelves - so I had them 2 as well.

    Will see what friends and family want etc and then I can always take them back to my local store to get my money back :)

    Thats OP, will be my POTM nomination!

    I don't think the Xbox bundles are on offer, only the basic black Xbox. Also the same applies to the Pure Evoke DAB radio, as there was one of those in Cambridge, but it was full price.

    Make sure you check the display cases in your shop. I put up the original post, and I figured that everything would be gone by now, but they still had a pink DS nintendogs bundle in the Oxford Boots (with one other game and carry case for £43)- it was just packaged in a cardboard box with no distinguishing features.

    There was a PS2 set left in Aylesbury at lunchtime. I didn't take it (got 2 already!) and I never opened the plain outer box to see what was in it but it was heavy. The till girl scanned it for me and it was £59 so quite likely to be the Buzz one. Anyone fast off the mark might be able to still get this in the morning, and there was a GB micro left too.

    if you get the xbox for £32.50 then you have been lucky as this is a store only offer.
    I found one with two games and at first it came up as £150, I insisted they contact CS which she did and they said it was £150 but when I told her nottingham had them reduced she rang the Nott head office and it then came back as £75. However when she said everything bar the xbox is on a half/half reduction then it dawned on me that this is how the xbox has come up as £32.50 the store managers must be reducing them at their own discrection.
    The member of staff kindly said she would try and persuade the manager to reduce it but after a lot of phoning around by the manager he could not do it.
    I must say though this staff member went out of her way to check and find things for me, nearly an hour or more running around. :T

    I also managed to get a micro and it did come with two games.
